ONTARIO

Provincial Tories express anger over leadership KIM ZARZOUR kzarzour@yrmg.com Is the Ontario Progressive Conservative party imploding? With a strong lead in the polls, PC Leader Patrick Brown appeared to be cruising to an easy victory in the next provincial election. Now some say the party is in danger of collapse. Disgruntled and disillusioned PC supporters are reportedly dropping out in droves following months of allegations of improprieties, intimidation, ballotstuffing and fraud by Brown’s supporters during local votes to nominate PC candidates. PC Party president Rick Dykstra seems undeterred by the loss

of supporters, saying the party has grown from 10,000 members to more than 100,000 in the past two years since Brown became leader. "We are gaining new members daily and we will continue to work with all of our current members as well," Dykstra said. But longstanding, card-carrying members of the party, expressing their disappointment and "disgust" with the party’s tactics under Brown, are vowing to withhold their votes or marshalling forces to defeat their leader. Several splinter parties and organizations have mobilized, hoping to derail the PCs in the next provincial election. Brown has said the controversy is evidence of the party’s

"The party absolutely is imploding. I’ve never seen anything like this.... [Brown] can’t win at the rate he is going - he’s losing support of the people the party has always had." – Marie Leone, member of Newmarket-Aurora Ontario PC association strong momentum and, based on an internal memo obtained by Metroland, it appears he wants to "bring closure and move forward". In the memo, Dykstra announced that all 64 candidates selected to date would be endorsed by the leader and further appeals for reconsideration would be ren-

dered moot. "Rather than constantly looking in the rear-view mirror, we simply need to move forward," he said. But not everyone is prepared to ignore the rear view, and the fallout continues among longtime members of the party.

"We can honestly say that the environment now is as toxic and destructive as we ever have seen it," Tim Broschuk, president, Dr. Richard Bonato, VP, Carl Arsenault, CFO, and Vel Velauthanillai wrote in their letter of resignation from the executive of the Kanata Carleton riding association June 11. The executive quit en masse; the executive board of nearby riding of Ottawa West-Nepean executive board quit days later. "The party has veered so far from the place we joined that we can no longer in good conscience say that we identify with what it stands for." A similarly worded statement l See DISILLUSIONED, page 3

Cry, laugh, be moved at 10-Minute Play Festival AMANDA PERSICO apersico@yrmg.com For less than the price of an Imax movie, you can take in six different plays during the Newmarket National 10-Minute Play Festival. The festival takes over Old Town Hall and Pickering College Theatre July 22 and 23, with 24 different plays divided into four play pods: Set/Reset, Check/Mate, Lost/Found and Bare/Bones. "Think of peas in a pod," said festival executive and artistic director Michael Halfin. The six plays in a pod are linked thematically, he said. The festival features plays written by Canadians found around the world, including a Canadian expat living in Beijing and others from across the United

States and Mexico. Ten real-time minutes is plenty of time to tell a story and have audience members on the edge of their seats. "It’s not sketches," Halfin said. "This is theatre for this generation. Think YouTube: this is how the message is delivered and then they move on to the next." While a two-hour play has a collection of subplots and characters, 10-minute plays exploit the exact moment when life inadvertently changes. Imagine a couple who have been married for 30 years and being a fly on the wall the moment the marriage is over, Halfin said. "Life can change in 10 minutes," Halfin said. "These plays bring that immediate experience,

Two York Regional Police officers knocked on the door and identified themselves. Without a response, they carefully entered the home not sure what they were walking into as they responded to a report of a domestic incident. Slowly walking down the front hall, they were greeted with hostility from a male sitting on a couch. "Get out of my house! You can’t come in," the male screamed, hurling a beer bottle at the officers. "You don’t have a warrant, get out!" The male could not be calmed and the officers decided to deploy a Taser to incapacitate the man who had allegedly assaulted his wife who was hiding in the bathroom. This was the scenario at YRP’s $30.4-million training facility that just celebrated its grand opening in East Gwillimbury. Dignitaries and community members gathered to tour the 89,000-squarefoot, state-of-the-art facility that features 10 classrooms, a simulation training room, practical skills training room, 50-metre firing range, police vehicle operations driving simulator, fitness rooms, lockers and a lunch room. The facility acts as a one-stoptraining-shop for 2,200 sworn and civilian members. The idea for the facility has been brewing since 2004 and will be the solution to outgrowing the Vaughan training facility at District 4. YRP will no longer have to use the Sharon Gun Club to train in the use of rifles now that the gun range is long enough to meet training standards nor the old school in Nobleton for tactical training, which can now be done in house. More than 70 training programs are offered and 250,000 training hours will be completed in the first year on the grounds, according to YRP Chief Eric Jolliffe. "This will give us the opportunity to enhance our training by integrating knowledge and practical under the same roof," he added. "This facility becoming reality is a fine example of teamwork." The firing range can accommodate 18 individuals at a time, a moving vehicle and a number of barricades for use in practicing positioning while shooting. The driving simulator allows training officers to assess the basic ability of new recruits in handling vehicles. "Our motto is out think, not out drive, and this room allows us to give trainees the tools they need to do just that," Sgt. Ron Axamit said. "We can monitor their reactions to situations presented, eye movement to see if they are checking mirrors and more in simulations." The scenario room requires the use of critical decision-making skills. Training officers are given no more information than a 911 call would provide and are forced to make quick decisions as role players act out realistic situations. A house is built of panels including windows, doors and even a bathroom. It is equipped with foam furniture to ensure trainees are safe. "The simplest of tasks can become quite complex in stressful situations," Sgt. Jeff Nolan said. "We recreate those stressful situations so an officer’s recall is quick when it happens in real life."

Disillusioned PC supporters leaving party l Continued from page 1

announced the mass resignation of the executive from the Newmarket-Aurora association, pointing to "blatant disregard for the democratic rights of the people". Marie Leone, VP of membership with the Aurora-Newmarket executive, said she and others like her, who have supported the PC party for years, are stunned. "The party absolutely is imploding," she said. "I’ve never seen anything like this. There’s always internal scrapping, you expect that, but I don’t know about this blatant breaking of the rules...[Brown] can’t win at the rate he is going - he’s losing support of the people the party has always had." Newmarket resident Anne Leroux also believes the party is in danger of collapse. Leroux said she resigned from the Aurora-Newmarket board and executive, after 12 years’ involvement, because the party parachuted in a candidate from outside the community and cheated to let her win - after letting the local riding association "go through the agonizing process of doorknocking, signing up members, identifying a good person to spend time and money putting his name forward...That is just so wrong on so many levels". Leroux has joined the Trillium party, one of two splinter groups gaining strength from PCers that have abandoned ship. A new Facebook group, "GTAers Interested in Politics", has enlisted a graphic designer to create whiteboard videos and is polling "concerned conservatives" to find out how to fix their party’s problem. Other groups are organizing spin-off parties - Ontario Blue - is reportedly making itself known in coming weeks and another fledgling party, Ontario Alliance, is currently seeking official party status. The Alliance was founded by Jay Tysick, a candi-

cally" a board member of the King-Vaughan riding association, but admits he has disengaged after witnessing "huge irregularities" by Brown’s people in that riding and more than a dozen others. As bad as the Liberals may be, Moir said, he and others who formed the backbone of the party now believe they have nowhere to go with their vote "So I’m sitting this one out. Even though we face some of the gravest fiscal challenges Ontario has ever seen, I can’t get off my ’old white man’s’ ass and get out the door for him." Moir warns that the party, which was on the verge of winning, is heading towards "a rupture more profound than people think". Carlos Naldinho agrees. The Ottawa man said he has been a member of the party since he was a teen and spent countless hours working for the party, from gruntwork to software assistance. "I’m as diehard as you can be." But now he has spearheaded a new group called ImOut.ca to encourage grassroots, card-carrying Conservatives - particularly those in ridings where nominations were considered "rigged" - to organize against their party by staying home on voting day. "This is our party and it was stolen from us for his own personal serfdom. That’s not what Conservatives are all about. We are about integrity. "If this problem isn’t avoided, if Brown gets elected, he will likely be in that position for four years and never get elected again, harming the party’s reputation for a long time to come." The I’m Out group hopes to help elect a minority government, which would prompt a leadership review and re-evaluation of the entire executive. "This will allow the party to remove the cancer that currently makes it impossible for any thinking conservative to support."

Newmarket Era, Thursday, July 20, 2017

The history of transportation in Newmarket is now on display through eight bronzed plaques installed along the Keith Bridge on Davis Drive. Be sure to take a moment this summer to walk along the Keith Bridge on Davis Drive, view the public art and learn about the rich history of our Town. The newly installed plaques are a key part of the Town’s ongoing Canada 150 celebrations and this project was made possible by the expansion of the Keith Bridge to accommodate the Viva Rapid Transit system. For more information about the Keith Bridge, please visit newmarket.ca

PLAQUE 1

PLAQUE 2

Ten thousand years ago families of hunters were regularly passing through this area in pursuit of big game animals. The landscape would have felt much like the Arctic tundra of today.

The river that ﬂows under this bridge once carried canoes laden with trade goods.

The retreat of the Laurentide Ice Sheet at the end of the last ice age revealed a ribbon of gravel known as the Oak Ridges Moraine. Present-day Newmarket sits on the north face of this moraine and on the shoreline of what was once an enormous glacial lake. This moraine served as a corridor for both migrating animals and Paleo Indians. The Barren-Ground caribou supplied these ﬁrst people with food and material for tools, clothing and shelter. The top of the plaque illustrates the Oak Ridges Moraine separating the glacial lakes of Algonquin (later Simcoe and Huron) and Iroquois (later Lake Ontario). Newmarket (round dot) and Paleo Indian archaeological sites (triangles) can be found along the historic shoreline of Lake Algonquin. Future Lake Simcoe is outlined.

For thousands of years First Nations peoples travelled through and made camp in this area. The East Holland River became the gateway of the canoe route to the Upper Great Lakes and the northern woods. A network of footpaths passed through present-day Newmarket and followed the Rouge, Don and Humber Rivers, giving access to Lake Ontario. Extensive trade involved the exchange of birchbark canoes, baskets, animal hides and furs for squash, corn, beans and tobacco.

PLAQUE 3

PLAQUE 4

You once would have arrived in this area along footpaths that were eventually transformed into muddy roads on which oxen pulled carts heavy with household goods and supplies.

In the late 1800s you would have heard and felt the rumble of trains passing through, bringing goods and people to this developing manufacturing centre.

Newmarket is part of a historic trail network that linked Lake Ontario with Lake Huron. In 1794 John Graves Simcoe, the ﬁrst Lieutenant-Governor of Upper Canada, directed that a military road be surveyed to go from York (Toronto) to North Bay. Land grants along this route required that settlers clear the land for road construction. The road - known as Yonge Street - provided the access that helped with the transportation of materials and agricultural goods from this thriving “new market.”

In 1853 the Ontario, Simcoe & Huron Union Railroad Company arrived in this area to find rich farmland and a village that was already established as a market centre. Train service, the first in Ontario, allowed the shipping of agricultural and manufactured products to outside communities. The railway also brought raw materials and people to support the manufacturing industries being established in Newmarket. The steam locomotive “Toronto” was the first engine built in the British Empire outside of England. It serviced this line until its retirement in 1881.

PLAQUE 5

PLAQUE 6

In 1899 the ﬁrst electric railway cars rolled down the centre of Main Street, sparking the commuter movement of people and goods from Newmarket to markets in Toronto and across North America.

The digging of a canal began on the Holland River just below this bridge in 1906. Newmarket businesses and armers had high hopes of shipping their products by boat to save money.

For 40 years the Metropolitan Street Railway Company provided light rail service and sold electricity to the “new market.” The rail line, known as the “Radial,” was one of several lines radiating from Toronto to the countryside. The electric line helped Newmarket become the meeting place for farmers to do business with buyers. Tacked on behind passenger cars were boxcars of milk, ice, grain, produce and industrial materials. Tourists heading north to Lake Simcoe travelled over the “radial arch” spanning the Holland River. The arch of the trestle bridge is all that remains of one of the ﬁrst reinforced concrete structures in Canada. In 1930 the Radial surrendered to the popularity of cars and trucks.

Over three hundred teams of horses were needed to carry away tonnes of dirt and rock removed by steam-powered shovel. This public works project became so large and expensive that, ﬁve years after it began, the standing federal government was defeated and the canal project was cancelled. Remaining pieces of concrete and ironwork from the turning basin, lift locks and three swing bridges can be discovered along the banks of the river below.

PLAQUE 7

PLAQUE 8

By the 1960s, the automobile had become the preferred mode of transportation. Travellers and locals frequently met at community gathering spots such as Bell’s Corner, featuring a motel, restaurant and gas station located at the corner of Yonge Street and Davis Drive.

This bridge, reconstructed in 2015, spans the Holland River and supports a rapid transit system that links to a larger transit network throughout Ontario.

The decade provided some of the great classic automobile styles and shapes. Car travel was made easy by the network of newly paved roads reaching beyond the city limits and across the continent. As suburban living spread to include small towns such as Newmarket, and as people and products had the freedom to move, the economy surged full speed ahead.

Through integrating pedestrian trails, bike paths, roads for driving and carpooling, rapidways for public transit and mobility hubs to connect them all, we are linking our residents and businesses to other parts of the province, as well as to each other. Newmarket will continue to see further growth and development in housing, businesses, transit, recreation, parks and green space in our Urban Growth Centres in the years to come. This development will support an increase in population and in jobs - speciﬁcally in the knowledge-based employment sectors in and around our hospital and YORK main business corridors. It is another phase of our transportation story built upon paths that have crisscrossed this spot for more than I0,000 years.

This public art project was generously supported by the following sponsors: Allstone Quarry, R.V. Anderson Associates Limited, The Sterling Group, GO Transit, Newmarket-Tay Power Distribution Limited, Royal Bank of Canada, Shanahan Ford Lincoln and York Region Rapid Transit Corporation.

Speeding-related deaths on the rise For a few minutes on a Sunday afternoon in April, a stretch of Highway 400 in Barrie resembled a scene from one of the (seemingly endless) Fast and Furious movies. A dozen vehicles, including a Lamborghini, a RollsRoyce, a BMW and a Porsche, were reported speeding "erratically" and "dangerously" northbound toward the city. Fortunately, they sped right into a police blockade. Twelve people were charged with stunt driving, their vehicles impounded for a week, and their licences suspended for a week. Was that a one-off, unique circumstance? Hardly. Last winter, Toronto police caught a driver doing 203 km/h in a 60-km/h zone. In another incident, radar clocked a 22-year-old man doing 183 km/h on Highway 401. There have been about 110 stunt driving charges laid in Toronto so far in 2017. About 200 charges were laid in all of 2016. School crosswalks, construction zones, it doesn’t seem to matter when it comes to reckless, dangerous driving. And the tragic consequences are adding up. As of June 26, speeding has been linked with 30 road deaths on OPP-patrolled roads, compared to 17 by this time in 2016. The OPP cites speeding drivers as the No. 1 cause of road fatalities so far this year, with the death toll in this category up by 76 per cent. Of the speeding tickets handed out this year by the OPP, more than 1,400 charges were against drivers clocked at 50 km/h or more over the posted speed limit. "For some drivers, instances of speeding and other forms of aggressive driving are frequent and for others, they are part of their everyday driving behaviour, said OPP Deputy Commissioner Brad Blair in a media statement. Much like drunk driving, it seems that existing penalties simply aren’t stiff enough to amount to a deterrent. The maximum penalties for an aggressive driving conviction include a jail term of up to six months, fines of up to $10,000, and extended licence suspension. But, in non-tragic circumstances, are those penalties ever invoked? Would it make a difference if they were? Somewhere in between simply losing a car for a week and spending six months in jail, there must be a penalty severe enough to make people think twice before trying to emulate Hollywood stunt drivers on our roads. This deadly behaviour needs to be stopped before more people are killed.

What is next, declaring that you will cut 200,000 public employees jobs if elected. Wynne is a sitting duck, getting rid of her should be so easy that if a monkey ran for her seat the primate could beat her in the election.....but this is what the Conservative Party thinks is important NOW....seriously shaking my head....bunch of numbskulls. Adam Werrell I’m conservative but there seems to me to be something shady about brown. ... I’ve felt that way since the start. but then again. .most politicians are shady imo Leslie Noble This has been building for some time and I am not surprised it has come to this. They believe they have the 2018 election in the bag just because they are not Liberals.Foolish Ontario desperately needs a new party where political ideology takes centre stage over being a liberal or conservative. I am not even sure what that means anymore the lines are so blurred and none of them have a solution other than more debt. Mike Bowcott

The story: Talk of ’rainbow child’ helps mothers open up about miscarriage Programs such as these are essential. We need to better recognize how traumatic a miscarriage is to the devastated parents and their loved ones. We need to remove the stigma that leads those of us who have suffered a loss to not talk about it with our friends and pretend that everything is fine. Talk about it. Share your story.

Raising awareness of drunk driving tragedies

Alarming some so eager to limit free speech

• LETTERS & COMMENTARY • l GET CONNECTED

Re: LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Free speech not a licence to spread falsehoods, July 6. It is alarming that some people in Canada are so eager and willing to limit the free speech of those whose ideas and opinions run counter to their own. Contrary to letter writer David Kempton’s assertion, free speech does give licence to individuals and the free press to say whatever they like, as long as it is not outside existing limitations; e.g. it is not libellous or hate speech. As support for his recommendation that YRMG "apply journalistic standards," Mr. Kempton has apparently marshaled the facts on climate change and determined that anything that does not align with his appraisal falls into the realm of "misinformation," is "anecdotal" or is a "false claim" and, as such, constitutes "harmful speech." This hardly seems sufficient grounds for stifling the opinions of others. The Liberal is to be applauded for entertaining and publishing diverse opinions and allowing readers the freedom to judge for themselves the veracity and worth of the facts and points of view presented. Free speech in Canada is already compromised in a number of ways; we should all strive to protect this important cornerstone of our democracy from being eroded incrementally. Colin Wright Richmond Hill

Free speech includes opposing views Re: LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Free speech not a licence to spread falsehoods, July 6. Mr. Kempton is accusing YRMG of publishing lies, or in his politically correct speech "alternate facts" about alleged climate change. Now, most people have an opinion on this subject, most probably formed by reading reports or papers published by scientists or people who present themselves as being knowledgeable and qualified to offer such opinions. David Kempton may be one of those people that are trained and qualified to speak with certainty on climate change or lack of it; if so, he didn’t identify himself as such in his letter. So, Mr. Kempton, is your letter based on your own scientific research, or like most of us, based on other people’s research? If it is the latter, then

Have a comment on these or any other community issues? Email us at newsroom@yrmg.com maybe you are the one putting out false information! Who is to say you are right and the others are wrong? It seems to me that you are one of those people who is all for free speech as long as you agree with it. If not, you want it banned from the paper. Shame on you. Anthony Whittock Newmarket

Khadr deal insults conscience of nation

Re: LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Free speech not a licence to spread falsehoods, July 6. It is fascinating that David Kempton in his letter tries to discredit Scholar Dr Micheal Crichton as merely a fiction writer. Just like saying the Prime Minister of Canada is only a drama teacher. Actually Crichton has far more on his resume! Obvious that Mr Kempton did not research the speech "Fear & Complexity & Environmental Management" which highlighted expert mismanagement of Yellowstone National Park. A speech with all verifiable data. However I’d like to thank YRMG and this letter writer for spurring me on to research Michael Crichton. Turns out the speech quoted was only an excerpt from a longer speech given at the Independent Institute entitled "State of Fear Science or Politics". This speech detailed the complexities of natural processes in Science. Not alternate facts but real science. Pointing out past "scientific consensus" most notably (among countless others) that many believed the Earth was flat. Not an alternate fact but historical fact. It is those brave enough to challenge popular beliefs that push science forward! Where a person gets their funding whether it be from oil& gas or the trillions spent by NGO’s & Gov, is noteworthy and must be taken into account,but there is no defence for not using critical thinking. There is also no defence for any scientific study not to be held up and analyzed by skeptics. That is the definition of Scientific Procedure! It is unfortunate that many can’t separate the environment, a worthwhile cause from the climate frenzy gripping our prosperity. Unfortunate that we search for irrelevant personal attacks then actually debating facts. There is nothing more irresponsible or harmful then this letter writer asking for Media to step up and

Reports of the $10.5 million dollar secret (blood money) payout by the Trudeau Liberals to Omar Khadr, a convicted terrorist, is a slap in the face to the family of U.S. Army Sergeant Christopher Speer and hard working Canadian taxpayers. My thoughts continue to be with the family of Sergeant Speer. Khadr admitted that he killed this brave unarmed U.S. Army Medic, notwithstanding the fact that he is alive today because of the medical treatment he received from Sergeant Speer’s colleagues also present on the battle field. To better understand the absurdity of this decision by the Trudeau Liberals, the Canadian Government provides a lump payment up to a maximum of $360,000 when a Canadian soldier is killed or injured in battle. Despite this, the Liberals are willing to dole out $10.5 million to a convicted terrorist. Let me clear, Canadian service personnel and veterans should be treated with greater respect than a convicted terrorist who fought against our soldiers and our Allies. Make no mistake; this secret payment is a choice, a Justin Trudeau choice, apparently another attempt to embrace the "hug a thug" belief system that he subscribes to. And what this all adds up being is an affront to the brave men and women who bravely serve our country, often in the face of incredible danger, as with Sergeant Speer, to keep us safe and uphold our values of freedom, democracy and the rule of law. Given Khadr’s admission of guilt, in the interest of natural justice and morality, he ought to give any settlement money to Sergeant Speer’s family. Canadians far and wide and the people of Vaughan in particular know that Prime Minister Trudeau’s decision is morally wrong and about which this Government should end this insult to the conscience of the nation.

stop Scientific Procedure and silence Man’s ability to grow. One things for sure, we all have more to say and I’d like to thank YRMG for encouraging everyones freedom of speech! Karin Hamalainen Newmarket

MADD York Region is comprised of a group of volunteers who put their efforts into bringing awareness to the effect impaired driving has on our region. Fundraising is a key initiative for our chapter. The funds we raise remain solely in our chapter and are utilized to support victims of impaired driving. The recent alarming number of impaired drivers charged in York Region is pushing us to find more ways to share our message and bring awareness. 25 impaired charges in a week is unacceptable. In Canada, four people are killed on our roads every day and 174 are injured daily as well. Last week, York Regional Police held a very moving start to their anti-impaired driving initiative. The young boys that drew pictures and told their stories of their friends were very brave and wise beyond their years. These children were forced to think like adults; no child should remember their friend as the one with whom they would never have a sleepover. MADD York Region hopes that their powerful message will be heard by the citizens of York Region and a decrease in impaired driving will be seen. One would think that the news of a family losing four people would make people think twice. Any family that has been affected by a selfish decision of an impaired driver knows an indescribable pain and the loss of a life they once knew. You are never the same after such a senseless act changes you forever. With the beautiful weather finally here and the long weekends, we encourage everyone to plan ahead, have a designated driver, call a cab, or plan to spend the night. For people that are planning a function, arrange for drivers or provide places for people to stay. Call 911 if you suspect an impaired driver; York Regional Police have shown positive statistics of how many impaired drivers are stopped due to 911 calls. We all can do our part! If you are interested in volunteering, you can send an email to maddyorkregion@live.ca. The more people we have will assist us in achieving our mission statement: "To stop impaired driving and support victims of this violent crime." This year, our volunteers will be hosting the fourth annual GOLFFORE-MADD tournament at Cardinal Red Crest Golf Course on Friday Aug. 18.

Offerings on a Buddhist tradition Devotees observe daily Pooja service in Markham MIKE BARRETT mbarrett@yrmg.com Puja or pooja is a devotional service practiced regularly by Buddhists around the world. It derives from sanskrit and is roughly translated as offering reverence or honour. At the Mahamevnawa Buddhist Monastery and Meditation Centre of Greater Toronto, Monks and devotees alike offer small gifts to the Buddha three times daily. Weather permitting, those assembled form a slow procession to the stupa, a shrine located at the front of their Markham property. Offerings of fruit juices and other simple foods, flowers and candles are made as a sign of devotion to the Buddha and his teachings. The service is usually followed by chanting and prayer. The Mahamevnawa Centre is located at 11175 Kennedy Rd. and offers Buddhist teachings and meditation in several languages, including classes in English every Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings. For more information, call 905-927-7117 or visit meditationGTA.org.

GOLF

Golf industry constantly on watch for boozy overindulgence JOHN CUDMORE jcudmore@yrmg.com A round of golf and an icy cold beer afterwards is par for the course. Just as surely any golfer doesn’t want to record too many strokes over 18 holes, golf facilities similarly do not want patrons to stray over par at the 19th hole. A reported incident at Bloomington Downs Golf Club in Richmond Hill on July 8, in which facility management restricted the serving of alcohol drinks to a group of golfers, drew attention when the guests complained about the course’s decision to limit their purchases. According to news reports, the golfers questioned a one beer/drink per

can be a danger to others. There’s no winning in this situation." Owners of golf facilities at large have had a seat at the bar with incidents involving alcohol and driving. The rise in awareness for many are linked to incidents which involved golf facilities and guests who were later involved in car accidents, sometimes with deadly consequences. Former Toronto Maple Leafs captain Rob Ramage was involved in a fatal accident 2003 which resulted in the death of fellow former NHLer Keith Magnuson after leaving a funeral at Glen Eagle Golf Course in Bolton. The following year three men were killed after driving away from a ClubLink facil-

hour policy. While manager James Turcott said Bloomington Downs has not experienced incidents involving patrons driving away and causing highway chaos, sensitivity to the issue of impaired driving is a common sense business practice for any establishment that serves alcohol. "For us, it was nothing specific but there have been situations elsewhere where people left and got into trouble," said Turcott. "It comes back full force on the golf course and everyone right on up the line is held liable. "We want to make sure people leave here safely and we’re looked after, too. It’s a double-edged sword for us - if you cut people off they are angry. If you overserve they

ity on Lake Joseph in Muskoka. "That’s when it came across for the industry there were going to be changes," said Robert Schmidt, general manager of Maples of Ballantrae Golf Club in Stouffville. "That’s when we started to get pressure from insurance companies for liability insurance." Golf may be the backdrop, but many facilities are multiuse properties with services beyond golf, including conferences, wedding receptions and other large gatherings. But golf and alcohol are a readily identifiable tandem, although it would be wildly unfair to suggest all golfers are staggering their way around courses.

"The challenge here is the number of places alcohol can be served," said Rob Brandon, director of operations at the Cardinal golf complex in King Township, noting its combination of restaurants and on-course options are potential hazards and difficult to monitor for every guest. Among the policies at his 72-hole complex, said Brandon, is a maximum of two drinks served at a time per person and limited servings per group from a beverage cart during a round. Cardinal founder, the late Dalton Hicks, was a key player in the development of the Golf Course Endorsement, a policy which is included in liquor licences and deals with alcohol and related proce-

dures. Brandon noted facilities are permitted to make their own rules. Likewise, golf facilities enjoy special exemptions for serving alcohol on parts of their property beyond licensed areas. "You can have house rules but they have to be posted," he said. "We are responsible until a person is sober not just until they leave the property." Facilities also are eagleeyed for patrons who, despite notices that consumption of outside alcohol is illegal, attempt to bring alcohol onto courses. Discipline for infractions varies between courses but ranges from warnings and product confiscation to expulsion from the property.
