YRT plans to slash GO, high school shuttles Service decreases recommended for more than 20 routes BY L.H. TIFFANY HSIEH

thsieh@yrmg.com

Eight GO shuttles and high school special bus routes in York Region could be axed if regional council endorses the YRT/Viva 2013 annual service plan Sept. 20. A total of 41 routes have been identified for restructuring, schedule adjustments and elimination of duplicate or overlapping service. More than 20 routes are proposed for some form of decreased service, be it reduced hours or discontinuation. Recommendations outlined in the service plan, which include two new routes, are estimated to save $2 million in 2013. Proposed changes will affect school specials, GO shuttles, contracted TTC routes operating north of Steeles Avenue and YRT routes with low ridership. School specials on the chopping board include routes to Father Michael McGivney Catholic Academy, Markham District See APRIL, page 9.

Organic food offers several benefits: farmers BY SIMON MARTIN

smartin@yrmg.com

York Region organic farmers aren’t giving much credence to a study released by Stanford University earlier this week. Organic, in the truest sense of the word, is still the best way to go, they said. The study, which was a review of previously published studies, suggested organic fruits and vegetables were no more nutritious than their non-organic counterparts. Although the study found eating organic would reduce your exposure to pesticides, it stated the amount found on conventionally grown food was within safety limits. “Organic is a more holistic approach with a

multi-faceted benefit, but you’re not going to become superman or superwoman by eating the stuff,” Damian Adjodha said. The Newmarket resident runs Backyard Organics and has a stand at the Newmarket

farmers market. His interest in organic farming methods was influenced by Rastafarian philosophy. The real issue is the organic food for which people fork over big bucks at the grocery store comes from large-scale producers that aren’t much different than their conventional counterparts, he said. “It’s controversial if this stuff should be even called organic. It’s a conventional system with substitute inputs,” he said. Many of the studies used in the new report were testing organic produce from large-scale producers, Mr. Adjodha suspects.

Amin and Nellie Jutha discuss parenting at a session Tuesday in Thornhill. The event was geared toward teaching parenting skills to men, primarily immigrants. taking on stronger family roles in modern times, no longer seen as backup child care, but as key sources of learning and nurturing, studies show. In some immigrant cultures, several generations live under one roof and that can lead to conflict, he says. In others, young parents are missing support of grandparents back home.

That’s why Paul Beka, a Thornhill father from Eastern Europe, whose wife is from South America, takes part in the parenting class. “A couple generations back, parents learned from each other. Now, we are completely separated and it takes time to build relationships. We don’t have opportunity to learn from each other. Courses like this are really important.”

“Women do better than men at talking about these things,” he says. “In fact, women know when they meet another woman, within an hour, whether they have children, etc. A man may be with a guy for months and not even know they’re married. They talk about everything else but that.” And that’s not good, he says. Fathers and grandfathers are

Partnership Parenting began with a six-week pilot program at the Early Years Centre in Thornhill this summer and, with funding from York Region, will expand this fall to centres in Woodbridge and Newmarket, a mosque in Stouffville and the Markham Community Hub, which will also include family physicians. In the new year, Mr. Bader plans to add a pre and post-natal component aimed at fathers and grandfathers. He calls it “anticipatory guidance”. “Fathers are often unsure what they’re getting into in the pre-natal period,” he says. The program will include four sessions before the baby’s birth, four sessions after birth and another four between ages nine and 18 months. “If parents can talk about what’s ahead, they won’t feel like they’ve fallen off the track when things happen.” Mr. Barillas Zuniga has seen the success first hand. The Richmond Hill dad, who comes from El Salvador, says he learned a lot when he began attending Mr. Bader’s program. Now, he is taking a leadership role. “The very concept of some guys getting together and talking about how to discipline and manage illnesses with children is a new concept to me. “But at the end of day, the important thing is the opportunity to meet other people and to realize you’re not alone. “There’s other people in exactly the same situation, as much confused as you are and as much frustrated as you are. We’ve all been there.” The Juthas, who hail from Uganda, are also taking leadership roles in the parenting course. As they talk about their children’s behaviour in the mosque and maintaining ties with grandparents, they take turns speaking and explaining how their differing child-rearing approaches complement each other.

SOU T

here’s nothing like pizza and parenting to bring folks together. Ed Bader, a parenting educator and Thornhill grandfather, has just placed a platter of pizza in the middle of the meeting room and the cheesy goodness seems to have opened the floodgates. Fathers, mothers and grandparents tuck into the slices while they share and tap into experiences with raising children. Clara Mazanegos, a newcomer from Guatemala, talks about how she deals with isolation, raising her two-year-old in a city without friends or extended family. Markham resident Paul Au compares child-rearing in Canada to Hong Kong, where multiple generations are involved. Nellie and Amin Jutha of Aurora share the struggles they’ve encountered trying to parent as a team with each other and their own parents. And Alexes Barillas Zuniga, of Richmond Hill, recalls the time he lost his daughter in the mall and, later, after she was home, safe and asleep, weeping with remorse, wondering if he was doing this whole parenting thing right. It’s something most parents wonder and Mr. Bader hopes this parenting program will help, especially since he will tap into an increasingly important resource: the experience and wisdom of grandparents. Partnership Parenting is his unique new program offered free across York Region to help families — newcomers, fathers and grandfathers in particular. And it begins with Mr. Bader’s theory, “If you feed them, they will come”. It’s only partly tongue in cheek. In these busy, scattered times, he finds food is often the thing that draws a community together. Conversation follows naturally after that. Many new parents, especially those new to Canada and without extended family nearby, feel isolated and overwhelmed, he says. Mothers are more inclined to share those concerns than dads and grandfathers.

Real Estate numbers dropped in August: report BY L.H. TIFFANY HSIEH

thsieh@yrmg.com

Home sales in the GTA may have dropped 12.5 per cent in August, but the average selling price was up by 6.5 per cent, according to the latest real estate figures. In York Region, the average price was $592,552, compared to the average price of $468,792 in the rest of the GTA. The number of new listings reported for the month was down 5.5 per cent com-

pared to the same period last year. With both sales and new listings declining, market conditions remained tight with “substantial” competition between buyers in the low-rise market segment, Jason Mercer, senior manager of market analysis with the Toronto Real Estate Board, said. “The trends for sales and new listings are moving somewhat in synch, suggesting that the relationship between sales and listings will continue to promote price growth moving forward,” he said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Neighbourhood thefts demonstrate lack of respect I live off Aurora Heights, in a nice quiet older section of Aurora, and I take pride in ownership, including many hours and time put into perennial gardens and landscaping. I am very involved in our town and its community and all it has to offer. Recently a heavy green iron bird bath was stolen from my front gardens a mere five feet from my front window. Unfortunately, the item is irreplaceable, being a gift from a recently deceased parent who was an avid birdwatcher. Police have informed me there were several back-to-school house parties in my area on the long weekend. The same night, a neighbor’s barbecue was tossed into the middle of the road at midnight and when she looked out, a group of young people were noisily leaving the area. I am sure the person(s) responsible for this will not be reading this article in

a community newspaper as they clearly have no interest in our town or respect for its people, their neighborhoods and their belongings, but, nevertheless, I felt compelled to share my story.

R. GREIG AURORA

FROM YORKREGION.COM

I’m Livid! How much more does the Region of York think we can afford? This is insane, especially for the lack of good quality service one would expect. I don’t have a problem with the drivers, in fact, since the strike, they have been very pleasant and polite. My problem is the service the region provides. Rush hour service and the bus comes every 25 to 30 minutes? Add on an extra 15 minutes because it’s late and when it arrives, it is packed. YRT/VIVA is falling behind.

Arctic delivers worrisome, wet wake-up call

rctic sea ice has already melted to a record low this year, in thickness and extent. And summer’s not over yet. According to the U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Center, record melt has occurred for the past six years. Both the NSIDC and European Space Agency say ice is thinning at a rate 50 per cent faster than scientists predicted, mainly because of global warming, and summer Arctic ice could soon disappear altogether. The implications for global climate, weather, animals and people in the north are enormous. One would think the urgency of this development would draw a swift and collaborative response from government, industry, media and the public. Instead, the media has downplayed the issue. The only mention made of climate change at the recent Republican National Convention was to mock the science. Many government and industry leaders are rubbing their hands in glee at the thought of oil and gas extraction opportunities and shipping routes that will open up as the ice disappears. We just don’t get it. As ice melts, more of the sun’s energy, which would

David Suzuki normally be reflected back by the ice, is absorbed by the dark water, speeding up global climate change and warming the oceans. The Arctic is now heating at almost twice the rate as the rest of Earth. There’s also the danger methane could be released as ice and permafrost melt. It’s a greenhouse gas far more potent than carbon dioxide, so this would accelerate global warming even further. Scientists believe methane may also be uncovered by the warming Antarctic. The Arctic ice cap also helps regulate weather, affecting ocean currents and atmospheric circulation. “This ice has been an important factor in determining the climate and weather conditions under which mod-

ern civilization has evolved,” NASA chief scientist Waleed Abdalati told the Associated Press. A study in the journal Geophysical Research Letters concludes melting Arctic ice could lead to more extreme weather events, including drought, floods, heat waves and cold spells — especially in Europe and North America. This not only threatens our future and that of our children and grandchildren, it could also have tremendous negative economic impacts. Because climate change affects agriculture and food supply, energy systems, water availability and weather conditions, it will be expensive. A study conducted for the Pew Environment Group concludes, “In 2010, the loss of Arctic snow, ice and permafrost is estimated to cost the world US$61 billion to $371 billion in lost climate cooling services. By 2050, the cumulative global cost is projected to range from US$2.4 trillion to $24.1 trillion and, by 2100, the cumulative cost could total between US$4.8 trillion and $91.3 trillion.” That doesn’t take into account the effects on animals and plants in the Arctic, including polar bears, whales,

seals and walruses, and the people who depend on them. What’s the solution? During a recent trip to the north, Prime Minister Stephen Harper confirmed sovereignty and resource extraction are his government’s priorities for the region. Oil companies, including Shell and Russia’s Gazprom, are taking advantage of the melt to speed up exploratory drilling. Greenpeace activists recently chained themselves to Gazprom’s supply ship in an attempt to stop that company’s activities. We can’t all chain ourselves to ships, so we have to tell our elected representatives, as well as people in the media and industry, that we expect better than short-term gain for long-term pain. Doing all we can to combat climate change comes with numerous benefits, from reducing pollution and associated health care costs to strengthening and diversifying the economy by shifting to renewable energy, among other measures. Written with contributions from David Suzuki Foundation editorial and communications specialist Ian Hanington.

OBITUARY: Paul Millard contributed to town, museum

Millard’s legacy will live on BY TERESA LATCHFORD

tlatchford@yrmg.com

Although Paul Millard is gone, he will never be forgotten, as his legacy will live on through Newmarket’s history. Mr. Millard, 85, died at Southlake Regional Health Centre earlier this week, but many people believe memories of hime will remain strong through his work at the Elman W. Campbell Museum, contributions to the town and the historical significance of his family name. The Millard family came to Newmarket in the early 1800s and Mr. Millard was proud to have such strong roots in the town. He told historical stories of his ancestors, including Timothy Millard, who arrived in Newmarket in 1812 and built a grist mill on Queen Street. The John H. Millard block built in the 1870s housed Millard Funeral Home and Furniture Store where Roadhouse and Rose Funeral Home now stands on Main Street. “He was a great storyteller and knew so much about the town,” Newmarket’s Jackie Playter said. “He was the kind of man who never seemed to age because he had such a zest for life.” In his retirement, Mr. Millard was on the museum board, a member of Friends of the Museum and involved in the town’s cultural mapping initiative. Having been a member of the Newmarket Historical Society and Heritage Newmarket, he gained the reputation of being a local history buff. “When I heard of his passing, my first thought is, ‘What am I going to do without him’,” Ms Playter added. “He always had his hand up to help when everyone else was hesitant.” While she served on many committees alongside Mr. Millard, one of her fondest moments was walking along the Nokiidaa Trail taking photographs for the association’s brochure. She described him as a true friend and an inspirational volunteer who never sought accolades for what he did for the community. “He has done so much for the community, but you would never know he was involved CERTIFIED CERTIFIED

Mr. Millard also loved to sing and was a member of the Upper Canada Chordsmen for more than a decade, president Jim Price said. “He never thought he was a good singer,” Mr. Price laughed. “He didn’t know it, but I was proud to sit beside him when we practised or performed.” There was never a matter too big for Mr. Millard to take on as he wore every hat on the executive except for president. He was a man of grace and seemed to find a solution for any situation with ease, Mr. Price continued. “I think I admired his smile the most,” he added. “He just did things because he could or because he felt it was the right thing to do.” Mr. Millard is survived by his wife of 61 years, Joyce, children, Jim and Mark, and three grandchildren, Megan, Morgan and Christine.

The larger problem with non-organic food is the effect of pesticides on the environment, Mr. Adjodha said. He is studying for a master’s degree from York University in environmental science and said the damage being done to the soil in conventional farming is unsustainable. “The organic industry is promoting sustainable agricultural practices. It’s about treating soil in a certain way,” he said. “I want to make clean food that doesn’t kill you.” It’s tough to be an organic farmer these days, Robert Simpson said. The Holland Landing resident set up Simpson Eco Farms in his back yard, where he practices organic hydroponics. “We’re technically not allowed to call ourselves organic because we are not certified,” he said. “There’s something wrong when people feel proud they’re not certified because the whole certification system is a joke.” To become certified, Mr. Simpson said he would need to spend tens of thousands of dollars that he doesn’t have. Still, practising organic methods is the way to go, he said. “It’s the most natural and beneficial to people, animals and the environment,” he said. “It’s hard to explain to somebody the amount of water and

A new study suggests there is no nutritional benefit to eating organic food.

pesticides that go into conventional farming.” The organic industry has become too commercialized with large-scale operations that have watered down the product, he said. Nothing about the study was news to Stouffville and King farmer Richard Reesor, who does things conventionally. “The study summarized a bunch of studies and was consistent with what I have seen most of the time,” he said. “It’s not surprising to farmers in the industry. Maybe it’s surprising to the consumer who’s thinking they are getting more nutritious food.” A commonly held belief is organic food in the supermarket is coming from small organic farmers, Mr. Reesor said. While those small farmers still exist

to some extent, the vast majority of the organic products in grocery stores come from large-scale operations, he said. Nutritional value depends more on the freshness of the product than if it’s organic, Oak Ridges Finest’s Peter Simmonds said. “If you pick it and eat, that’s when it’s at peak value and freshness,” he said. Simmonds grows chemical-free produce and said potential illness from pesticides is one of his big concerns with conventional farming. “I care about what I eat and am selling to my customers and their kids,” he said. Customers need to educate themselves, Mr. Adjodha said, adding you shouldn’t blindly throw your support behind any one method.

Tipofthe Week

Impactful changes to kitchen can be economical BY JUSTIN BAUER

While traditionally seen as the place where ingredients become meals, the kitchen itself is the product of many different and sometimes disparate elements coming together to form a pleasing, functional whole. A quality kitchen-renovation, then, balances everything from lighting, cabinetry and countertops to appliances, wall paint and traffic flow. Getting creative with cabinetry Cabinets pop up first in many conversations about kitchen remodelling. Katherine Skilton of Pay Less Kitchens says that choosing a timeless design for cabinets will help avoid the problem of an outdated appearance: “Most clients are looking for something that isn’t going to be impacted by flighty changes in kitchen designs. So simple, clean, elegant lines are important.” Upper wall cabinets that extend to the ceiling with crown molding offer more storage space, adds Ms Skilton, while they also remove the hassle of having to dust above cabinets. Thinking vertically has the benefit of providing more space for other things below, whether food preparation or décor along the vacated wall space, or simply a roomier feel. Andrea Ross of Splash Paint Finishes notes a trend toward repurposing and refurbishing, rather than complete tear-outs and overhauls. “Where we’ve found the biggest impact to be is people are keeping their current cabinets, and they’re painting them out. And then they’ll add the modern touches like the island or they’ll go with the granite [countertops].” Sometimes, she says, cabinets may be reconfigured to accommodate modern appliances, getting rid of traditional ‘L-shaped’ kitchens with peninsulas in the process and adding slide-outs or pantries. In other cases, newer cabinets can fit atop existing ones, finding a more creative and economical way to add storage. Whatever style of cabinetry homeowners choose for their kitchen, quality should be their primary concern. Besides style, a well-manufactured product provides durability, without

which a cabinet door or a drawer can slowly deteriorate into something that sticks or jams. Ms Skilton recommends a similar approach to seeking out contractors. “One of the best tips I can give is: A homeowner should always get references and check out the company website to see what products and services they provide.” Most importantly, she adds, most renovations will encounter at least one challenge—customers can learn a lot about a contractor by the way they handle problems that arise in the middle of a job. Colour conscious While stainless steel remains a popular choice for kitchen appliances, Ms Ross has seen a re-emergence of white and black, and predicts the trend to continue. It “seems to be that they want to colour match their walls with their appliances.” And, at the same time, homeowners are increasingly unifying wall and cabinet colours—“everything seems to be more

monochromatic,” she says. Two-toned kitchens incorporate two shades, which reside within the same colour family. Ms Ross says that many people employing this design scheme choose a lighter shade on top and something darker below. “It just seems to ground it a bit more” and “gives it a nice flow.” That doesn’t mean kitchen colours have to be dull. “It depends on what it is,” she says, “I’ve found a lot of people will get a bit more daring if they have an island, but they’ll want to go neutral with the regular cabinets.” Accessories like tea towels also offer an outlet for experimentation, she adds. Lighting isn’t immune to trends either. New LED strips that affix to the underside of cabinets provide seamless lighting and prove popular for food preparation tasks, says Ms Ross. Ms Skilton sees many people moving away from hanging chandeliers above the kitchen table, while pendants make nice additions above islands and peninsulas.

HOW DO I

MAKE MORE SPACE IN A SMALL KITCHEN? For small kitchens, islands on wheels are great for adding style, versatility and extra storage.You can increase your food preperation space with an extra work surface, and improve your storage with a cabinet unit, shelves and hooks.When it’s no longer needed, simply roll it into the corner leaving more space to move around.

Duct cleaning and filtration makes your home breathe easier BY JUSTIN BAUER

Homeowners could be forgiven for being confused about their air-duct system: The wide variety of opinions on duct cleaning and indoor-air-quality improvement, not to mention the sheer number of companies who purvey them, defy easy decision-making. When the dust settles, homeowners should consider their own unique situation and a few incontrovertible facts. Canco ClimateCare’s Nancy McKeraghan views the duct system as a home’s lungs: “And so you, I hope, would want those to be as clean as possible.” That being said, she isn’t convinced that duct cleaning should be an annual or even biennial service, as some companies would have people believe.

RONA Installation Services

Renovations cause trouble with respiration There are some scenarios outside of a regular cycle for which she recommends the service, including following a renovation or a move. In the former case, drywall dust and other debris constitute the main concern, while in the latter many new homeowners prefer to feel at ease knowing the duct system has been cleared of mess from previous owners and pets. Gerry Lloyd, founder of Champagne Cleaners, echoes that sentiment, suggesting that “small particles, depending on the kind of filter that is used down in the furnace, can go through there, get on the fan and then blow through the house—and then it becomes a recirculated situation.” see HRVs page 11

HRVs improve air quality from page 10

When a company does a thorough job of cleaning the ducts, Ms McKeraghan says, “it really isn’t necessary to have them done for a number of years—unless, as I say, one of those circumstances has arisen.” Mr. Lloyd subscribes to a similar timeline, adding that while regular duct cleaning is beneficial for sufferers of allergies and asthma, only in rare cases should anyone need the service more often than once every three years. And while some companies might be well qualified to perform duct-cleaning service, homeowners shouldn’t naturally assume that these same technicians are also qualified to give advice on HVAC components or air-quality products. In any case, Ms McKeraghan says, vetting a company for expertise and professionalism will ensure that there are no unpleasant surprises. Filters protect the furnace Homeowners should also exercise the same diligence when it comes to filtering their air. Ms McKeraghan makes an important distinction between traditional one- or two-inch pleated furnace-filters and air cleaners. As the name suggests, furnace filters protect the furnace; they trap larger debris before it

comes into contact with the blower or other parts and then gets distributed through the house. Meanwhile an air cleaner, she says, removes finer particles including dust, pollen, mould and mildew while also offering protection to the furnace. There are many types of air cleaners, including whole-home and portable, and disposable and reusable. Ms McKeraghan recommends that homeowners examine the amount of microns (a unit of measurement) that a product removes from the air, and compare numbers. She also warns against certain types of furnace filters that may actually impede the flow of air through a system and do more harm than good: “they do increase the static pressure of your system and can actually shut it down; there’s a safety mechanism that it will shut down.” To be on the safe side, homeowners should inspect their furnace filter every four-to-six weeks and change accordingly, she adds. Heat recovery ventilator systems (HRVs) are another option for improving indoor air quality. “The air quality inside your home is about 25-30 per cent worse than it is outside,” Mr. Lloyd says, “so the HRV actually brings clean air into the system, circulates it through, and then throws it back out. So you’re getting clean, fresh air all the time.”

Friends of Carroll Shelby, including Ford Motor Company, Shelby American, Ford Racing and many others have built a unique 2013 Shelby GT500 Cobra as a tribute to the late Carroll Shelby. Ford is also announcing a renamed road at its Product Development Center in Dearborn, Mich., as a tribute to Shelby as well. Cobra has been the consistent performance label as Shelby worked with Ford for most of the last 60 years, and Shelby was instrumental in the creation of Ford performance vehicles including Cobras, the GT40 and Mustangs since the mid-1960s. The unique tribute car was unveiled at the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion where Cobra is the marque of show for 2012. Using the 662 HO 2013 Shelby GT500 as a

foundation, “Friends of Carroll” created the one-of-a-kind 2013 Shelby GT500 Cobra widebody Mustang that now generates more than 850 hp with the help of a Ford Racing 4.0-litre Whipple supercharger. Putting that much power to the ground requires plenty of traction, so the 13-inch-wide rear wheels are wrapped in massive 345-section high-performance tires for extra grip. Ford Motor Company teamed up with Shelby American for several key components on the Carroll Shelby tribute car. Shelby American provided a specially designed hood, new rear wide-body kit, Shelby Wilwood brakes and new 20x13-inch rear and 20x10-inch front wheels. The bodywork is finished in the same Guardsman Blue with Wimbledon White stripes In honour of Carroll Shelby this one-of-a-kind 2013 Shelby GT500 Cobra wide-body that graced so many of the Cobra roadsters Mustang was unveiled at the recent Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion where Cobra is the marque of show for 2012. built in the 1960s.

The Infiniti LE Concept is a true Infiniti with just one thing missing – a tailpipe. Making its European debut at the Paris Motor Show, the LE Concept will line up alongside the award-winning Emerg-e sports car concept and M35h production hybrid in a powerful display of “no compromise” performance motoring. Combining driving appeal with zero emissions in a dramatically-styled compact saloon body, the all-electric LE Concept is being shown in Paris with a pledge that a production version will be on sale in selected markets in around two years’ time. The showroom model will not only share the LE Concept’s advanced powertrain but also much of its design character – one that shouts “dynamic luxury” rather than “electric vehicle”. Also in line for production are its highly crafted cabin and user-friendly technology – including the possibility of a groundbreaking

wireless recharging system. The LE Concept does not compromise either on roominess or comfort. The advanced packaging solution of placing the lithium-ion batteries under the floor not only provides a no-compromise approach to luggage and passenger room, but also contributes to the vehicle’s low centre of gravity and enhancing handling. Staying true to the Infiniti creed of Inspired Performance, the LE Concept is designed to stimulate rather than sedate on the road. This is achieved by a high performance electric motor with 100kW (134 hp), along with 325Nm (240 lb/ft) of torque. The battery system is a proven laminated 24 kWh lithium-ion (Liion) design with a ChaDeMo DC50kW quick charger that can deliver an 80 per cent charge in 30 minutes. Other charging options being looked at include an innovative home-based Wireless Charging System.

Coach of coaches Kelly set to hang up his whistle F BY JOHN CUDMORE

jcudmore@yrmg.com

or most coaches, an extra set of eyes is invaluable. Perhaps that accounts for the sports gods’ insistence on having assistant coaches. For the past eight seasons, Newmarket Minor Hockey Association coaches have had Kirk Kelly’s peepers at their disposal to help navigate the often uneven path that goes with their position. Since stepping into the role of coach mentor for the 1,700member program for the 2004-05 season, Kelly has helped coaches handle situations on and off the ice to the point where one coach refers to him as the organization’s MVP. He cites his abilities to interact with coaches, players, parents and executive members. “I can’t go into a rink without being hooked up in a conversation about a coach,” Kelly, 58, a resident of Mount Albert who started coaching in the NMHA at the house league shortly after moving to Newmarket in 1988 said. “Parents will stop me and talk about the good and bad things they experience. I think the big thing is being seen in the rink.” Kelly estimates he spends 20 hours per week in arenas, assessing formally and informally, monitoring the coaches, players, parents and teams. Each coach receives at least two scheduled game day and two practice visits per season. “Seeing (coaches) in the arena and dealing with players and parents is a good opportunity to see their successes and address their shortcomings,” he said. “Sometimes there is a reluctance to open up because they suppose it exposes themselves and they may

not get the job again, but we’re hoping to help coaches be better and make the program better.” Kelly, a retired national sales manager for a multi-national computer systems company, has already declared he will pocket his whistle at the conclusion of the 2012-13 season, but his impact in handling the NMHA’s 31 rep teams and hockey development programs for house leagues will provide a model for years to come. Kelly has been instrumental in developing the rep coach selection process, streamlining parent surveys and executing rep team tryouts. “He has put in countless hours to help keep the rep program running as efficiently as it does, while also continuing to look for new ways to enhance and improve the rep program,“ veteran NMHA coach Dan Levick said. “He has been the MVP of the rep program for the last five years. He’s the glue that kept all those NMHA processes together and improving each year.” Although the official title may vary around the hockey community, organizations increasingly are realizing the benefits of an expert on the subject of coaching. The position does not give Kelly a seat at the board of directors table, although he is often approached as an official. “I talked myself into the job and they were quite receptive at the time,” Kelly said with a grin. “It was a new concept, coaches helping coaches. Guys seem to want to share experiences and hear (about) how to rectify situations, game reviews, dressing room issues. Despite battling kidney issues — he’s had two failed trans-

plants — and surviving a heart attack three years ago, Kelly has perservered. His intention has long been to be out of minor hockey by age 60. “I think of how this has kept me feeling young and involved,” said Kelly, who undergoes daily selfdialysis. “It hasn’t hurt my sense of humour one bit. “I’d like to think I made a difference in some boys’ lives and helped them see what they’ll encounter in real life. “There are many, many good guys so my not returning won’t be a big issue for minor hockey. Nothing is stopping me from coming to the rink. I’ll still come for pleasure.” Still, his steady hand is going to be missed. “It’s remarkable how many kids and coaches he has worked with over the years,” NMHA president Murray Taylor said. “He has done an awful lot for kids and coaches in Newmarket over the years. His are going to be big shoes to fill.” Levick agrees. “He has been an incredibly valued person to speak with as a parent, fellow coach and mentor. He always brings a perspective to situations that really helps bring clarity and a better understanding.” Kelly feels a sense of satisfaction when he views his body of work in coaching and mentoring. “Coaching usually parallels a kid’s career,” he said, noting the dynamics of a typical minor hockey team coached by parents. “But I think the number of coaches coming back means you are doing something right and they’re having as much fun as the players. “The significant change is in

They want a well-run and executed program where there is an improvement in hockey and personal development, too. “Expectations are higher than ever before and (minor) hockey is viewed moreso with a critical eye. The coach has to be the consummate professional more than

ever before.” The perfect coach? “It’s the guy that can do three things at once,” Kelly said. “He has to be a leader, follower and motivator all at the same time. And if he’s tuned into his players, do it 17 different ways. To me, it always starts and ends with the players.”
