The Fandis and the Al Shteiwes have been involved in Christmas activities ALI RAZA aliraza@yrmg.com
Metroland
The Fandi family were given a Christmas tree by their sponsor group, Stouffville Cares. They plan to exchange gifts on Christmas Day as part of their first celebration in Canada. ary. Ali and his wife Manjiye have 10 children, with their last son being born in Canada. The snow has been a particular joy for the children as they’ve spent most of the season building snowmen. "If it snows a lot and we don’t have to go to school, then we get to build a snowman and I love doing that," said Rachid, 8. Just like the Fandi chil-
dren, the Al Shteiwe children have been actively involved in Christmas celebrations at school, helping with decorations and afterschool crafts. The Al Shteiwes had a smaller celebration of Christmas back in Syria, often with their Christian friends. "We would gather with others and eat together, give gifts and celebrate the new year," said Mo-
hammed, 18. "But in Canada, everything is more beautiful. The streets look really nice and we like walking around instead of driving," he added. The family has decorated their home with lights on the outside and crafts on the inside. They recently participated in Vaughan’s Santa Claus parade, riding in a float with a handmade Syrian flag, held beside the
flag of their new home, Canada. Christians in Syria make up 10 per cent of the population, but the civil war has forced many to flee. Regardless of religious beliefs, the conflict has uprooted many families. Muslim or Christian the holidays are a time when families come together to celebrate, both the Fandis and the Al Shteiwes believe.
yorkregion.com
Seeing Christmas for the first time in Canada is quite the adjustment for Syrian families in York Region. As the holidays approach, Syrians reflect on what for many of them is their first experience of celebrating Christmas in North America, among a majority Christian population. The Fandi family in Stouffville arrived in Canada early this year from Jordan after fleeing their home in Daraa, Syria. They’ve adjusted to life here, constantly praising the hospitality and kindness they’ve received from their neighbours. But when it comes to holiday celebrations, they remember their old traditions. "Christmas is good," said Faisal, the father of the family. "But I don’t know much about it. We’re Syrians, we’re Muslims, so we’re just used to Eid and Mawlid an-Nabi." Muslims across the world, including those from Syria, traditionally have three major holidays in the year. Eid al-Fitr (Festival of Breaking the Fast), which is celebrated at the end of the fasting month of Ramadan. Eid al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice) which commemorates Abraham’s sacrifice to God. And Mawlid an-Nabi (Birthday of the Prophet) which celebrates the birth anniversary of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad. Islamic holidays follow the Islamic calendar, a lunar calendar that lags roughly 10 days behind the Gregorian calendar. As a result, each year holiday dates move backwards 10 days.
This year, one of the major holidays - Mawlid anNabi - landed on Sunday, Dec. 11, in and around the holiday season. The Fandis celebrated as expected with family, friends and a feast. But that doesn’t mean they’re not doing anything for Christmas. Their sponsor group Stouffville Cares - donated a Christmas tree, which they decorated and plan to surround with presents. "I like the tree," Thaer said. "We don’t have Christmas trees in Syria." On Christmas Day, the Fandis plan on spending time with friends and family, while their son Thaer, 12, plays hockey. "I want a hockey stick, a red and black one, because of the Stouffville Spirit, with white tape," Thaer said when asked what he wanted for Christmas. The Fandi children have been involved in Christmas activities in school, singing Christmas carols, baking cookies and having a Christmas pageant. The children have their own "gift draw," said sponsor Jason Wilson. "They’re very excited, we did a little draw, Thaer picked his siblings, they’re going to buy one gift for each other," he said. "There have also been letters to Santa." The Fandis reflect on the stark difference they’ve noticed with Christmas celebrations in Canada versus Christmas celebrations in Syria and Jordan. "In Jordan, our neighbours were Christian," Faisal said. "They just go to church and spend time with their family." Santa Claus, however, does visit Christians in Jordan, they said. Faisal noted that shopping was a much more emphasized aspect of Christmas in Canada, something he didn’t expect. In Bradford, just north of York Region, another Syrian family is excited about Canadian Christmas traditions. The Al Shteiwe family fled Homs, Syria, and arrived in Canada in Janu-

Don’t forget less fortunate this holiday season
TheLiberal.
Well, the holidays are here again and that means it’s time to indulge in a little festive food, partake in some eggnog, perhaps, and maybe even keep a keen eye out for the arrival of Santa Claus and the array of presents many children, young and old, hope that he has with their names on them. And while many of us count the days until this time of year rolls around again, for others in the community, the season is anything but holly jolly. Each and every year we hear the pleas from charities and other local nonprofit agencies about the need for both donations and volunteers to help make the season bright for the less fortunate among us. It’s all too easy to get swept up in the Each and every year annual excess and the we hear the pleas seemingly never-ending to-do list each of us from charities and has, but, if we’re able, other local nonprofit we should try and take even a moment out of agencies about the our hectic schedules to do our part to help need for both ensure that others can also have a reason to donations and celebrate the holidays. volunteers to help York Region is home to many charitamake the season ble agencies from those that operate bright for the less at the local fortunate among us. strictly level to others whose scope spans all nine municipalities and beyond. The fact of the matter is, poverty remains a massive issue in our society. Although a small gesture, donating a few non-perishable goods to the local food bank or making a small donation to a nonprofit organization may not seem to have that much of an impact, but if enough of us do it, it can make a big difference to others in our communities. By all means, enjoy spending time with your friends and family over the course of this festive season; just don’t forget that not everyone has reason to feel joyful without some assistance. If we can all pitch in, even a little bit, maybe we can make sure another family has a merrier Christmas or a happier holiday and, with any luck, a more prosperous new year. The countdown is on, but there’s still time to be generous to others. You’ll be glad you did.

Email us at newsroom@yrmg.com Re: Toll on DVP would have profound impact on York Region residents, Nov. 25.I am writing regarding the changes that we are being told are going to be made to the Don Valley Parkway. I just want to say how absolutely ridiculous this is. Are you kidding me? Can they actually be allowed to charge us a fee for this? This is crazy. Do they not realize that this will cause most of the people to stop driving on this road? I for one will never drive on this road again if they decide to start charging us a fee for using this highway. I’m sure I’m not alone. I will quit my job before I will pay fees to drive on
this road or else I will find an alternate route to take. I don’t care if the time delay is more. Unbelievable that they think they can get away with this. Please do not allow them to get away with this. Gerti Bronse King City

ic, the only agency in the Region providing this type of service to a vulnerable sector of our community at a pittance in cost. How can the Region possibly justify ending the funding after 23 years? It is not like the need for this service is diminishing. On the contrary, with the growing crisis in the availability of affordable housing and the rise in the number of low and moderate income residents in York Region, the need for a service like this is even greater.
l
Who will pick up the slack once this agency is gone? Ms. Urbanski, Commissioner of Community and Health Services, says that the Region funds programs for low and moderate income residents that address service gaps in the community. Well, is this not a program that addresses a service gap? The impact of the loss of these services on the vulnerable members of our community who most need them will be immense, but who cares? These are the invisible who will just have to get by with one less helping hand. York Region, creating strong, caring, safe communities! Kathleen D’SouzaWhitchurch-Stouffville

11 Critical Home Inspection Traps to be Aware of Weeks Before Listing Your Richmond Hill Home for Sale Richmond Hill - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale. Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost
you dearly in terms of repair. That’s why it’s critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable pre-inspection yourself if you know what you’re looking for, and knowing what you’re looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones.
To help homesellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled “11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection” has been compiled which explains the issues involved. To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report call toll-free 1- 800-324-3520 and enter 3003. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Get your free special report NOW to learn how to ensure a home inspection doesn’t cost you the sale of your home.

Picture the scene . It is mid-winter. The family is cosy and warm inside their home. The winter wind can be heard outside, but indoors all is calm and safe. There are no frozen limbs when everyone turns in for the night. Picture the scene . It is mid-winter. Kids are outdoors because the shelters are full. The winter wind bites into their very souls, outdoors there is no respite from the cold. The weather eats through their thin clothing. They are cold and hungry. Some sleep outdoors. Stan Daneman, in conjunction with 360Kids, has launched an appeal for packets of hot chocolate, instant oats (individual bowls and in packets) and healthcare products for the area’s homeless kids. The objective of the appeal is to provide the kids that are forced outdoors to find other shelters, to take a packet of hot chocolate or oats with them. Most all-night food outlets provide the kids with hot water. Lesley Sims of 360Kids encourages the public of Richmond Hill to support this drive. "While this project will be of great value

Hurt or sick on the holidays? Here’s what to do KIM ZARZOUR kzarzour@yrmg.com t’s Christmas Eve and your child is ill. Do you bundle him up and head to the nearest hospital emergency department? That depends. This coming holiday period is the busiest time of the year for local hospitals and health care providers want you to know that there are other options. Heading to Emerg can be a knee-jerk reaction and not always the best choice, says Dr. Andrew Arcand, chief of the department of emergency medicine at Markham Stouffville Hospital. Arcand suggests that your first response, if you are ill or hurt and it is not an acute crisis, should be to call your doctor’s office. Some physicians and medical clinics will be open or offering extended hours over the holidays and most
leave space in their bookings for same-day appointments, he says. Others may not be open but have an answering machine message suggesting an on-call doctor to talk to after office hours. A second option is the TeleHelp line - 1-866-7970000 - a free provincial phone number offering round-the-clock advice, 365 days a year. A nurse will answer and help you decide if you should head to hospital. A walk-in clinic is the third alternative; some will be offering holiday hours. You may be able to search your local hospital’s website for the list of nearby Markham Stouffville Hospital. walk-ins and their hours.

"But if you have a real emergency or are acutely unwell, you should come to us. The point is, we’re there for you, 24 hours a day, always ready to help you and we will do our best."

isolated seniors feel better at this time of year. Valiera Luttrell, who established community group the Grandparent Connection with her 93year-old mother three years ago, has always had an "affinity for working with seniors." She said she and her mom saw a need to bring smiles to seniors and to connect community groups like Beavers and Scouts, as well as elementary school students, with seniors who don’t get out or receive much company. "We don’t host functions. We collect greeting cards and stuff stockings and distribute them to seniors, either in their homes or in long-term care facilities," said Luttrell. She said she has connected with all the longterm care homes in Newmarket and said there has also been interest in start-
York Region’s
ing similar groups in Aurora and Keswick. "But it takes time and it’s a lot of work," said Luttrell, who works full-time as an office administrator/bookkeeper and is also a caregiver for her mother. She said her husband also has an elderly mother so the family is kept busy. "There has been an amazing reaction to the gifts we have put together for our seniors. It’s been a very good response. "The primary students do artwork, pictures and cards for the seniors and it really brings out the smiles. They love it," said Luttrell, whose group also keeps up the good deeds throughout the year, not just at Christmas-time. For more information, visit www.thegrandparentconnection.com. In Nobleton, the Lion’s Christmas dinner for seniors is an annual can’t miss event for many oldtimers.
Paul Olsen of the Lions, who has been involved in the dinner for many years and at 72 is a senior himself enjoys taking part. Olsen, who says he is a "senior serving seniors", said the dinner started out with the Lions delivering poinsettias 30 years ago and eventually evolved into the 150-160-strong sit-down meal that takes place today. Olsen said the dinner is by invitation only, but that is just because if it wasn’t then the event would be overloaded. "We try not trying to exclude anybody, and if anyone needs to be included they can notify the Lions," he added. The main course is always roast beef, cake is dessert and there is a glass of wine for everyone who tipples. Most importantly, Olsen assures, a great time is had by all. "Some start arriving an hour early. We have the Girl

Event organizer and host, Vince Cancelli, tells jokes prior to everyone joining in a Christmas carol sing-a-long during the King Township Seniors Centre open house earlier this month. Care of York Region wants to connect local York Region community organizations and seniors who may be home alone this Christmas. The program aims to provide gifts to 100 seniors from members of the community through the support of nonprofit organizations, businesses and volunteers. "The holidays can be a troubling time for seniors.
They may feel the absence or the distance of loved ones," said Faryar Foroodi of the York Region Home Instead Senior Care office. "Be a Santa to a Senior provides a ray of hope for many seniors, and it means so much for them to know that people care and value them as members of our community.

to save time, money and reduce waste For many families, shopping and preparing meals comes with a lot of food waste. On average, York Region households throw away $1,500 worth of food each year. Here are some simple tips to reduce food waste and save time and money:
1
Plan ahead and shop with a list (check your cupboards in advance to avoid buying duplicates)
2
Buy only what you need; bulk buying or buying on sale is only cost effective if the product is actually used
3
Choose recipes you can make ahead, giving you more time with your family and friends
4
Serve smaller portions; preparing or setting out more than they can eat is more food wasted
5
Freeze leftovers to enjoy later; soups, stews, pasta and casseroles freeze well

Guides come and sing Christmas Carols and oldtime fiddlers play music. We have a lot of people who are there year after year after year. They really look forward to it," he said. He also said it gives the Lions a chance to put their own group front and centre. "A lot of our support comes from older people and it’s an opportunity to get together with them on a large scale. So, I guess there’s an ulterior motive too," he said with a chuckle. Still, with some of the attendees not thinking they were old enough to attend "until they were 80," said Olsen, it’s a chance for many friends to see each other at least once a year. "They love the sense of community. It gives them a chance to get together," said Olsen. For more information visit www.nobletonlions .com. "Be a Santa to a Senior" is how Home Instead Senior

School spirit! Parents line up overnight at St. Theresa JOHN CUDMORE jcudmore@yrmg.com School was in session this morning despite the calendar showing Saturday. In fact, it was an all-nighter for dozens of Richmond Hill parents who lined up to submit registration packages in an effort to secure their children a spot in the Grade 9 class next September at St. Theresa of Lisieux Catholic High School. They were hoping to be among the lucky ones to claim one of the remaining spots for 400 entry level students after catchment area students and Advanced Placement students are accommodated in the York Catholic District School Board school. Although no official number of spots available has been disclosed, some parents estimate the number to be around 50. They had lots of time on their hands for math since the lineup started shortly after the school closed at 6 p.m. Despite fears Friday after-
noon that the issue might intensify, it was an orderly process led by the actions of school principal Joseph Servidio. He opened the doors of the school around 11:15 p.m. Friday to allow family representatives in line to spend the night inside the school. "The principal really instilled confidence that the process was the right one," said Rochelle Coleman, who arrived Friday at 7:30 p.m. and was 49th in line on behalf of her son, Zach Agnew, a Grade 8 student at nearby Silver Pines Public School. "This is a school people really want to get into. This made my impression of the school even better." Heather Hamilton left her son Ty’s hockey game when she learned that news that the line was already 20 deep at 6:30 p.m. She was 42nd in line and shared lineup duties with her husband in the mini-tent city. "We were definitely nervous at 42nd and wondering whether 42 would translate into 42 going in the door," said Hamilton,
whose son attends Moraine Hills Public School. "We were part of a little group and we were all very protective of one another. It was amazing and quite the scene." A priority list initiated within the line helped maintain order. It worked as there were no issues or unruliness or clashes. Coleman estimated more than 200 families were present. There were still 150 people lined up, she estimated, when she left around after 9 a.m. "My concern was how to stay warm during the night so people were thankful of the actions of the school’s administration," said Coleman. "People were generally in good spirits. It was a bit awkward when you thought about what you would do for the next 10 hours. So you got to know people. It was kind of a bonding moment." Successful candidates will not know until at least January whether their children will be attending the school next September. There were some tense mo-
ments, but mostly due to the uncertainty beforehand and what the night of lining up might bring. But people were camped out, and well-prepared for a snowy and cold night in which temperatures were around minus-5 degrees. "It was more watching the weather and not knowing the numbers," said Coleman, who rushed over to the school after monitoring social media in the afternoon. "It was like lining up for Bon Jovi tickets or (to purchase) a house. The great thing is a lot of kids that want to be in the school were there. "However cold it was, it was a pretty feel-good moment. People were having fun with it, just trying to get through the night." St. Theresa has a school population of more than 1,400 students. "It’s been very stressful over the last two weeks, filling out the 21-page application form and checking it over," said Hamilton, jokingly. "Our kids owe us big-time. They’ll definitely be shovelling snow this winter."

Markham resident opens her home to homeless for Christmas AMANDA PERSICO apersico@yrmg.com Christmas is a time for family, full of warm wishes and merry making - that is, if you have a family and warm home to go home to. For many in the region, Christmas is just another cold day on the street. One Markham woman is hoping to change that for a few of the region’s hundreds of homeless residents. "Christmas is a beautiful time and it deserves to be shared," said Sharon Chisholm, a single-mother with one daughter. "There are many who go without. It’s heart wrenching." For years, Chisholm drove around the region on Christmas Eve with her daughter, Samantha, and handed out mitts, hats and a toonie for a warm coffee to those on the street.

Notice of Amendment to the York Region District School Board Education Development Charges By-law
"It’s a small tip of the scale," she said. "You can see how old they are, their hands are purple. In a minute, their face lights up and they can’t believe someone cares." While Chisholm plans to continue her mission to deliver warmth to homeless people on Christmas Eve, this year she wants to give a little more. "We’ve been so blessed," she said. "We’ve had some hard times, too. We just want to help someone else in life. There is a lot of gratification in giving. Maybe that’s selfish. Chisholm is opening her Markham home to anyone in the area who is without one this Christmas. "It’s a couple more plates at the table and a couple more gifts under the tree," she said. "Everyone needs family for Christmas. Join us for dinner and be part of our extended
CORRECTION
TAKE NOTICE that on the 13th day of December, 2016, the York Region District School Board (the “Board”) passed the Education Development Charges Amending Bylaw, 2016-02, which amends the 2014 Education Development Charges By-law 2014-02 of the Board.
In the Michaels ad starting on December 16, 2016, “Frames starting at $4.99” was stated in error on page 2. Based on the images shown in the ad, the statement should have read “Frames starting at $9.99”.
AND TAKE NOTICE that any person or organization may appeal the said amending by-law to the Ontario Municipal Board under section 257.74 of the Education Act by filing with the Secretary of the Board on or before the 23rd day of January, 2017, a notice of appeal setting out the objection to the amending by-law and the reasons supporting the objection. The appeal may not raise an issue that could have been raised in an appeal under section 257.65 of the Education Act of the 2014 Education Development Charges By-law 2014-02.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
family on Christmas Day." According to the United Way Toronto and York Region, more than 1,100 people used transition housing last year. Based on a point-in-time survey completed over a 48-hour period in January 2015, more 260 people were living on the streets or in an emergency shelter in York Region. For anyone interested, a warm home and a hot holiday meal will be provided. Transportation and meeting in advance can also be arranged, Chisholm added. Her hope is others in the community will consider opening their homes on Christmas as well. Looking for a warm place for Christmas, email Sharon Chisholm sharon.chisholm@century21.ca.

No other amendment to the 2014 Education Development Charges By-law 2014-02 has been made in the amending by-law.

Light displays rock the region and season HEIDI RIEDNER hriedner@yrmg.com Some rockin’ holiday displays are lighting up the region and the season. Two "big kids" in Georgina and Markham are not only giving Christmas Vacation’s Clark Griswold a run for his money, but also sharing their love of the season with their respective neighbourhoods. Sean Johnston first put up a synchronized display with one simple controller in 2008, but he has since "lost count" of how many strings of lights go in to what can be described as nothing less than a spectacular display at his home on Bayview Avenue in Keswick. "My wife and I have this running joke that I’m not allowed to talk about Christmas lights until September," he laughs. That may be, but he is definitely planning, and programming, for months before actual setup, which takes about the entire month of November and represents a modest estimate of about $6,000 in equipment. It also takes between 10 to 15 hours to program a light sequence to one song, which means just over 100 hours and 100 channels went in to the 15-minute, synchronized version of lights gone wild to seven
festive tunes, including everything from "Frosty the Snowman" to a souped-up version of "Up on the Rooftop" from Beyoncé. Yes, Virginia, there is some practicality behind the magic. The countless hours of computer programming, decorating, testing and probably more than a few moments of frustration and an insatiable desire to kick Santa to the curb are all worth it to Johnston. "I like doing it," he says simply. "I like sitting in my living room and seeing people pull up, hearing them laughing, and seeing the joy the show gives them. It really touches me and it makes me feel good. It’s a lot of fun and I enjoy it. Where else can you go as a family, in your warm car, for free, and watch something like this?" Well, if you live in Markham, Captain Rolph Boulevard, near Hwy. 7 and Wootten Way, is the answer. Tim Brunt’s truly epic synchronized display has been bringing the neighbourhood together for years, right down to a festive and fun block party complete with treats and hot chocolate for the flipping of the proverbial "switch", which took place Dec. 2. Fun, funky, with touches of humour and great cre-
Metroland
ative flair, "the show" all runs off a computer laptop in Brunt’s basement, as well as three main controller boxes for the main lights in addition to six smaller ones for individual elements that together total 12,000 lights. Being left in a potential state of shock over his hydro bill wasn’t a concern for Brunt, who says a combination of LED lights that are only on for moments at a time equates to a mere $8
or $9 extra on the bill. Besides, "it’s totally for the kids," he says. That includes his own, who are nine, eight and three, and whose eyes are as big as their smiles over the display. As for any Scrooges who may not exactly be wired to appreciate the sheer enormity of brightly blinking, multicoloured lights blazing and dancing to some pretty rockin’ tunes with a few oldies thrown into the
mix against a night sky? There aren’t any to be found in this neighbourhood. That includes Amy Friesen, who moved into the neighbourhood in August despite being told there was a "Griswold guy gone wild" who would be living right across the street from her new home. "For us, this is Christmas, and the whole spirit of the holidays," she says seriously. "My three kids love it
and It brings everyone together. I’m excited to be a part of it." Tim’s wife, Colleen, says her husband loves Christmas and does it all for their kids and the neighbourhood. "He’s a big kid himself," she laughs. "He does this every year and, every year, he layers on more and more and more," she jokes. "It’s fun and it certainly makes the Christmas spirit shine brightly."
