BYELECTION VOTERS HEAD TO THE POLLS SEPT. 6 TO ELECT A NEW MPP
Byelection candidate now says he supports PC Leader Hudak
Gridlock: solutions, challenges
BY JEREMY GRIMALDI
jgrimaldi@yrmg.com
Progressive Conservative candidate Tony Genco was forced to backtrack on his support of the Ontario Liberal’s all-day kindergarten after Ontario Conservative Leader Tim Hudak said the province simply “cannot afford” the estimated $1.5 billion-a-year program. Mr. Hudak yesterday condemned the program during a campaign stop at Woodbridge window and door manufacturer Vision Extrusions. “It’s not whether it’s good or bad,” Mr. Hudak said, “it’s whether it’s affordable. (We need to) stop overspending and grow the economy.” The PC Leader added the current government is playing a game with a “ticking time bomb”, referring to the province’s ballooning $15-billion deficit. The province’s credit rating was downgraded from a stable outlook to See NEW, page 12.

Traffic gridlock has consistently ranked among the top issues for Vaughan voters in recent elections and the fast-approaching provincial byelection promises to be no different. Liberal candidate Steven Del Duca and Progressive Conservative candidate Tony Genco have vowed that, if elected Sept. 6, they would make easing gridlock a top priority. Mr. Del Duca said solving the city’s traffic woes requires a “blended approach” that includes making investments in public transit and expanding the road network. See CANDIDATES, page 14.

The Kleinburg Nobleton SC 2000 Lions, a U-12 boys soccer team, needs your support if they are to become this year’s BMO Team of the Week champion. The KNSC Boys 2000 Lions are one of 15 finalists in BMO’s national grassroots youth soccer contest. You can cast your vote online daily from August 13-27 at www.bmosoccer.com. This team of young boys got together five seasons ago through a love of soccer and ended up being a support system for each other. They are a like family on and off the field. If they win the championship, they will receive a $125,000 upgrade to their community soccer pitch, a team trip to see a Toronto FC, Montreal Impact, Vancouver Whitecaps FC or Canadian National Team home game and $5,000 for the charity of their choice. As one of the 15 weekly finalists, they’ve already made a $500 donation to The Hospital for Sick Children, and winning the overall championship would help them refurbish the club’s soccer field.
We are all looking forward to seeing you.

Those are just some of the options open to you next month as the Schwartz-Reisman Centre launches a slew of new community programs on the Lebovic Jewish Community Campus.

This year’s ride will feature four events, including a 160-kilometre course for advanced riders, a 100-kilometre course for intermediate riders, a 25-kilometre course for recreational cyclists and a Kids Fun Ride for children two to 12 years old. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m. at St. Joan of Arc Catholic High School, 1 Saint Joan of Arc Ave. in Maple.

It’s time for change. Our community has been neglected and taken for granted by the McGuinty/ Sorbara Liberals for far too long. Now more than ever, we must take action to address Ontario’s jobs and debt crisis - and deal with our local priorities.

Some people think they have to spend hours at the gym sweating on the treadmill or elliptical trainer in order to burn calories and lose weight. As it turns out, the things you do every single day could be burning more calories than you realized. Some discipline with your diet and certain healthy habits can make the difference for those attempting to lose weight. Getting eight hours of sleep can burn more than 300 calories for the average person. But there’s a good chance you are interested in what activities you can do while awake to help burn calories. Courtesy of Discovery Health and Harvard Medical School, here are common everyday activities and how many calories can be burned depending
on weight. These ďŹ gures are based on a person weighing around 150 pounds and a duration of one hour of activity.
240 cals. 300 cals. 160 cals.
Supermarket shopping: Pushing a wagon around the supermarket for an hour can burn 240 calories or more. Up the ante by bagging groceries yourself and packing and unpacking them from the car. Raking leaves: If you spend time manually raking leaves this fall, you are doing something good for your body. In addition to working several muscle groups, you may burn 300 calories. Dusting: Spring cleaning can be good news for your health. Dusting alone can burn as much as 160 calories.
400 cals.
Painting: Perhaps you’ve been procrastinating on that house painting project. Here’s inspiration to break out the rollers and brushes. Spending an hour painting can burn 350 calories. After several hours applying a primer and then top coat, you may find you painted yourself thinner. Community service: If you want to help the environment and your health, spending time picking up trash from a park or seaside can shed some serious calories - 450 an hour. Playing with kids: Engaging in some fun family time can burn around 400 calories. Plus, it’s a great way for parents and children to bond.

Time for candidates to woo us
V
aughan voters couldn’t be faulted for feeling disillusioned about the upcoming Sept. 6 provincial byelection. After all, we were in this same place less than a year ago and returned longtime Liberal Greg Sorbara to Queen’s Park to represent us. Despite his assurances at the time that he was in this for the long haul, he suddenly resigned his seat two weeks ago, citing additional personal and professional obligations as taking up much of his time. Mr. Sorbara also said in a letter to the editor below that the people of Vaughan need a full-time MPP. We couldn’t agree more. So, with a mere 22 days left before we head to the polls to elect a new MPP for our growing city, we’d like to hear some solid answers to some of the more pressing concerns facing our community. For example, with our hospital still years away from being built and nearby hospitals at capacity, what do the candidates propose to do in
Now is time for healing Re: Vaughan murder suspect identified, Aug. 2. On Aug. 1, residents of Colombo Crescent awoke to the sounds of sirens and screams. The impossible had occurred. A young man in the prime of his life was killed in a senseless act of violence. Residents were stunned. How could this happen on our street? When the news vans moved on and the police took down the yellow tape there was a sense of uneasiness. What now? Do we go back to our daily routine? But how could we? A young man was dead and another clinging to life. A community had lost a son. Our Ahmadiyya brothers and sisters were in mourning. Who would console them? We tried our best. We looked for leadership. Thank you to Councillor Marilyn Iafrate for speaking to residents and showing leadership when no one else did. Now is a time for healing. To my Ahmadiyya friends, you are in our prayers.

the interim? There is an urgent need to fill the gaps in a myriad of health care services. Secondly, gridlock is choking our city. Do we need a new tax to deal with congestion? If so, say so. Is better transit the answer? Where’s the plan to support it. Lastly, since Vaughan is speeding up development in the northern part of the city, we will see our much-beloved greenspace dwindle. With that comes added stress on the environment. Where do the candidates stand on balancing growth and environmental protection? These are some of the questions, we believe, to which you would like to hear the answers. Regrettably, the timing of this byelection finds many of you vacationing and only able to focus on this once the kids are back at school. We can only hope, unlikely though it seems based on past results, that the next three weeks will somehow turn out to be a campaign about positive ideas.

Signs don’t vote, people do Re: Liberal campaign machine wastes no time in Vaughan by-election, Aug. 10. Signs are great publicity, but remember one thing, signs don’t vote, people do. You have to get voters out on election day and that is not easy. So many voters promise to vote then fail to show up.

Politicians should pay penalty for resigning Re: We have no time for quitters, editorial, Aug. 8. I agree with this editorial. MPPs sign on for four years and if they quit during that term, they should pay a penalty, unless it is for health reasons.
MARKHAM72
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thank you, Vaughan An open letter to the citizens of Vaughan. Over the course of my 27 years in politics, I have had the opportunity to serve in a variety of roles within the Ontario Liberal Party, government and province. Among all of these assignments, serving as a member of provincial parliament has been the greatest honour. Through seven elections in four different ridings — always including Vaughan — the Ontario legislature and all that it stands for has been at the very centre of my working life. But as our lives and families place new demands on us, there comes a time for decisions and adjustments to the responsibilities we take on. I’ve decided that now is the right time for me to step down as MPP for
Vaughan. This change will allow me to do two things. First, it will allow me to focus all of my political efforts on my dual roles as chairperson of the Ontario Liberal Party’s campaign and chairperson of the Ontario Liberal Fund. I believe passionately in our party and the inspired leadership of Premier Dalton McGuinty. The government we have led has positioned Ontario for a stronger, sustained prosperity over the next decade. But to keep our province on track, I need to focus on preparing our party for the next general election. I will also have the opportunity to devote more time to my family and my business interests. The people of Vaughan will always remain close to my heart. I want to thank my constituents for the confidence they have placed
in me throughout all these years. Serving as MPP for Vaughan is demanding and time consuming. Vaughan is one of the fastest growing ridings in the province. I simply could not let my responsibilities to my constituents become a part-time pursuit alongside the other demands on my time. Vaughan needs a fulltime MPP. I feel fortunate to have had the privilege to serve my constituents and province for as long as I have. I am profoundly grateful for the trust and support I have received over the years. For your endless support and for giving me so much more than I could have ever imagined, thank you.

Back to school help available BY AMANDA PERSICO
apersico@yrmg.com
For some, preparing to go back to school is a chore that signals the end of summer. For others, shopping for back to school items is a daunting financial struggle. For more than five years, the Salvation Army has given students a jump start through the Backpacks for Kids program. The need is growing each year, said Terry Harney, community and family services coordinator for the Salvation Army in Markham. Last year, more than 35 backpacks were donated to local children. “Families are still struggling,” Mr. Harney said. “One backpack is even a struggle.” But this year, the local Salvation Army is struggling, too, as a major sponsor backed out of the backpack program. To help fulfill its commitment, Mr. Harney is turning to the community for help. “We have so much support during our Christmas and food drive campaigns,” he said. “Let’s help lift this burden off some of these families in need.” The program supports children from kindergarten to Grade 12 who can’t afford new school supplies. Each backpack is stuffed with school essentials, such as paper, pencils, crayons and calculators. For more information or to donate, call 905-4723009 or e-mail terry_harney@can.salvationarmy.org.

How to Keep Kids Motivated Until the Final School Bell Rings
other things. Adverse public records, including bankruptcies, liens and wage attachments also factor in. A credit score also takes into consideration the amount owed, including amount owed on certain types of accounts and the number of accounts with balances. In addition to payment history and amounts owed, the algorithm used to determine a credit score alsoconsiders an individual’s length of credit history, any new credit accounts they have opened and the types of credit they have used. The higher a person’s credit score, the better interest rate that person is likely to receive from a lender.

Stop daydreaming about summer! There’s work to be done! Here’s how to stay motivated (and even pull up grades) in the time left: 1. Dust Off That Agenda. Agendas have kept students organized throughout the school year and now’s not the time to leave them forgotten in lockers or at the bottom of a school bag. Need to renew the drive to succeed? Flip through the agenda for a reminder of everything that has been achieved so far this year. 2. Work Towards a Goal. It’s easy to coast for the rest of the year, but rather than slacking, set a goal and work towards it. Whether it is by fine-tuning study skills or pulling up a math grade, having a goal to work towards makes staying motivated easy. 3. Take On Extra Credit Projects. Talk to teachers about bonus projects or assignments. Teachers look favourably on students who make an effort, and this is especially important when it comes to creating final report cards. 4. Make Better Grades Your Mantra. To get better grades you have to do the work. Create daily reminders of what the goal is—write “I want better grades” in the agenda, put it on post its by the bed, and say it out loud while walking the dog. The more it’s said and heard, the more it will be believed and achieved. 5. Get Extra Help. End-of-year projects and exams can stress even the most organized students. Enlist the help of a professional tutor to help manage current workload and learn helpful tips to make studying for finals stress-free. Oxford Learning has many great programs that help students make the rest of this year as successful as possible. Call today and make the rest of this year count! Make the rest of this year count. The clock may be ticking on the school year, but there is still time to make this grade the best grade ever!

What is the advantage of Invisalign over conventional methods such as braces or veneers? Invisalign is a virtually pain free way to straighten misaligned teeth. Unlike braces it requires no brackets or wires and is virtually invisible. Invisalign has smooth comfortable plastic aligners, whereas with braces, wires can poke and irritate your mouth. These aligners are removable for easy cleaning. Another advantage of Invisalign is that you can eat what you want. This is not the case with braces, where things like popcorn, apples, nuts and carrots are off limits. Veneers also provide a good option for really discoloured or badly shaped teeth however, they are not the most practical when braces are an option. Veneers which are applied to the front side of the teeth only, require the removal of the surface enamel of each tooth and are an irreversible procedure. Veneers usually need to be replaced every five to ten years, which can be very expensive over time. Special care is needed with veneers to avoid discolouration, chipping or breaking. There are many options available when considering teeth straightening, but none offer the comfort and convenience and confidence that you will get with invisalign.

Hi Eleonora, do you need to be a “First Time” buyer in order to qualify for 5% downpayment when purchasing a home? Samuel Hi Samuel, All buyers are eligible for 5% downpayment provided they are purchasing a single family residential property as their principle residence. However, under the new mortgage rules, the maximum amortization is 25 years. Commercial, rental or investment properties do not qualify for 5% downpayment.

Did you know?
A credit score is a number generated by a mathematical formula, or algorithm, based on information in each individual’s credit report. Lenders use different scoring models to determine if an applicant is worthy of credit, and these different models are why men and women have three different credit scores. But each of these models relies heavily on an individual’s credit report. Two of the most influential factors in determining an individual’s credit score are payment history and the amount of money owed. Payment history includes history of payment on credit cards, retail accounts, installment loans, and mortgages, among
The Hot Table By Carolina Chiodo
This months question comes from Pina Hi Carolina, can help me out with a recipe that my nonna used to make when I was a child. They were called fritelle in our dialect and made during the summer while zucchini were in season... can you please bring me back to my childhood with this recipe? Dear Pina, Bringing you back to your childhood through this recipe will be my pleasure. You are absolutely right they are called “Fritelle” and yes they are made during the summer season mostly however, they are not limited to being made during the season only; they can be made all year round with the following recipe. So let’s begin..... Take two large green zucchini and 1 large yellow zucchini, chop into small pieces or slices. Once all the zucchini is chopped, place them in a colander with 2 tbs of salt (this will help the zucchini give out all its moisture) let this sit for a good hour. Secondly, in a separate bowl, mix 6 large eggs, 1 cup of flour all purpose, 2 additional tbs of salt, 1 cup of grated cheese, 1/2 cup of chopped fresh parsley, 2 minced cloves of garlic and mix well until all ingredients are combined into a semi-paste consistency. Your next step will be to drain the zucchini and add the cut up pieces into the mixture of eggs. Make sure all ingredients are incorporated well, if you see the mixture is too runny add flour gradually until the mixture is homogeneous and dense. With a spoon place spoonfuls into hot oil, let the fritter crisp on both sides, once it is golden a cooked through remove from frying oil and place on a paper towel in order to absorb the excess oil. Serve them warm for best results... and your fritelle are made very simple but surely delicious. If there are zucchini blossoms in season chop them up and add to the mixture for added flavour and texture! Pina, I hope this has brought you back to your childhood, and eating your nonnas food! Take care and Buon apetito!

Pre-arranged funeral misconceptions Kevin Daudlin General Manager/Licensed Funeral Director
What is the difference between a viewing and a visitation? Many times when death occurs to a loved one, it is unexpected and there is a need to see the deceased. Some hospitals can be very accommodating when it comes to spending time with the deceased. Other care facilities may have limited space and the deceased must be moved quickly. In most cases the family of the loved one may have to travel 24 hours or more and may not have the opportunity to say good bye. In a private viewing there is less formality, as the body is placed closer to loved ones without the restrictions of a casket. It would be optional whether you choose to have the body embalmed for this private time. Many funeral directors claim that a viewing is necessary for “closure.” In the past, it was common to have three days of viewing or visitation. Now however, with busy work lives many industry reports seem to indicate that many are opting for only one day of viewing or visitation for funerals. A visitation on the other hand offers an informal time to remember and to gather with loved ones and help in the healing process. In this case the casket is either closed or not present at all. Whatever your choice you can sit and discuss your options with the director and he or she will provide you with the most suitable and memorable way to give you closure and honour your loved one.

Did you know?
An au pair is a young foreigner who comes to live with a family to provide a certain level of domestic care in exchange for room and board and a small allowance for personal use. The person typically provides childcare services and some light housework. He or she works a set amount of hours per week and is required to have a certain number of full days off, usually two. An au pair may be able to stay in the host country for up to 2 years and becomes a temporary member of the family, immersed in the culture of this country. For individuals seeking a less expensive alternative to nannies and day care centers, an au pair can be very cost-efficient.

New poll puts Liberals ahead of Conservatives From page 1.
a negative one by Moody’s Credit Service in April. The issue reared its head during an interview with The Citizen Friday when Mr. Genco not only said that he supported the program, but added that there was no use opposing it because that “ship had sailed”. However, when asked about it in front of his party’s leader and a number of employees at the Zenway Boulevard factory yesterday morning, he provided a curt response, saying that Mr. Hudak’s vision was his own. “I support the leader,” he said. This flip-flop is all the more interesting considering Mr. Genco’s past allegiances as a Liberal who switched sides after losing to nowConservative Minister Julian Fantino during the 2010 federal byelection.
Mr. Genco’s campaign was also hit hard yesterday with a new poll that showed the local PCs have not been well received by Vaughan voters. Pollster Lorne Bizinoff placed the five per cent drop in Conservative support (down to 36 per cent from 41 per cent) in the past two weeks squarely on Mr. Genco’s shoulders. “It’s probably due to the quality of the candidates,” he said. “The one difference from two or three weeks ago is we now have the candidates’ names.” The forum poll put the Liberals at 47 per cent in Vaughan, up from 40 per cent, and the NDP down to 9 per cent, from 15 per cent. Leader support was also polled, placing Mr. Hudak at 29 per cent, up from 24, Premier Dalton McGuinty at 31 per cent, down from 32 per cent, and New Democratic
Party Leader Andrea Horwath earned top approval with 32 per cent. Those poll results were not mirrored in KitchenerWaterloo, the other seat up for grabs during the Sept. 6 byelection. In that riding, the Liberals are down and tied with the NDP at 30 per cent, while the PCs have jumped with their candidate to 34 per cent. The Liberals are hoping to win both seats to gain a majority, which they lost by only one seat during last year’s general provincial election. The McGuinty government defended all-day kindergarten, citing the program will begin next month for about 1,000 children in nine Vaughan schools. As well, the program is already underway in 13 local schools, with 28 more schools coming on board next year and in 2014.

Candidates offer solutions to ever-increasing gridlock in Vaughan From page 1.
One of the things Mr. Del Duca said he would personally support is the creation of a GO train line running through west Woodbridge. That project was announced as a priority initiative when provincial agency Metrolinx announced its Move Ontario 2020 transportation plan five years ago. But a 2010 feasibility study released by Metrolinx concluded that a GO train line through the area is unlikely to happen in the next decade or so. Mr. Del Duca also said he’d push
for the long-awaited extension of Hwy. 27, up to Major Mackenzie Drive. When pressed, however, he admitted that given the province’s current fiscal problems it might be quite some time before the project gets under way. Recognizing that, Mr. Del Duca said the best thing for Vaughan is to have an MPP who is willing and able to work with his municipal counterparts to pressure the province. “I think working together we can continue to make a compelling case
that that’s an extension that should take place sooner rather than later,” said the 39-year-old married father of two. Asked what he would do, if elected, to try to ease gridlock, Mr. Genco said Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak has pledged that his party supports extending Hwy. 427, “once the (province’s) money issues are settled”. “That’s a huge gap that we have in terms of transportation and that will help us with those in the west part of the riding,” said the 46-yearold married father of two.

He also said the Conservatives are committed to improving public transit, but that also would also hinge on a sound financial plan being worked out. “The first and most important part of this is to make sure that we have our finances in order,” Mr. Genco said. “We have to have things back on the rails and put together a plan that make sense. We don’t want to have situations where you waste money like $190 million in the (gas) plant that they (the Liberals) cancelled just to save a couple of seats (during the last election). …
We want to make sure the money is used strategically.” Another key to tackling the city’s traffic woes is to ensure investments in infrastructure stay ahead of population growth rather than reacting to it, he said. “Make sure the infrastructure is there to support growth in regions, not having to lurch from crisis to crisis, which is really the fundamental problem that I think this community has experienced with the Liberals,” Mr. Genco said. If the Liberals win both byelections being held concurrently in Vaughan and Kitchener-Waterloo, the party would gain a majority in the Legislature. But recent polls shows the Grits falling behind the PCs in KitchenerWaterloo, while surging ahead in Vaughan. A Forum poll conducted locally found the Liberals sitting at 47 per cent support, a 7 per cent increase from a poll conducted earlier in the month. The Ontario Conservatives, meanwhile, dropped to 36 per cent support from 41 per cent. In the earlier poll, results were tight with the PCs at 41 per cent support and the Liberals at 40. Rounding out the slate of candidates in Vaughan, at the time of publication, are NDP candidate Paul Donofrio and Libertarian candidate Paolo Fabrizio. —With files by Torstar News
