AUTO GLASS & CUSTOM UPHOLSTERY The 407 East Environmental Assessment (EA) Study consists of two stages: (1) the Environmental Assessment Terms of Reference (ToR) and (2) the Environmental Assessment. The ToR was approved by the Minister of the Environment on 1010 Brock Road South (Northwest corner at Bayly) Serving Durham Since 1985 January 17 2005. The approved ToR is available for review at local municipal offices, libraries and on the project website 905-831-4290 www.premiereautosalon.com at www.407eastea.com. The Environmental Assessment study commenced in February 2005. The study will address the requirements of the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act and the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act in accordance with the approved process detailed in the ToR. Public involvement is an important aspect of the EA Study in terms of identifying transportation problems and opportunities and assessing potential impacts and mitigation methods. Public input and feedback on the EA Study is encouraged and welcomed. In order to facilitate participation, an extensive public consultation process is underway that includes Public Information Centres (PICs) at key points throughout the Study. At any time during the Environmental It's time to Assessment Study, municipalities, stakeholders and the public can provide input and comments. At the conclusion of the EA Study, an Environmental Assessment Report will be submitted to the Minister of the Environment for review and about approval. Further notices will be posted at that time. PUBLIC CONSULTATION Drug and The first set of PICs held in May and June of 2006, presented the “Transportation Problems and Opportunities” and the assessment and evaluation of the “Alternatives to the Undertaking”, which are functionally different ways of addressing the transportation needs in the Analysis Area. A preferred transportation alternative was presented along with a preliminary Alcohol Use Study Area. The preferred alternative to address long-term transportation needs included the following components: • A new east-west transportation corridor (highway/transitway) extending from Highway 407, at Brock Road in Pickering, to Highway 35/115; • Two north-south transportation corridors (links) connecting the proposed east-west corridor to Highway 401 in west and east Durham; • Enhancements to transit; • Improvements to existing roads (regional and provincial); and • Improvements to existing transportation operations through demand and systems management. Comments received from the first set of PICs (PIC #1) and the associated responses are posted on the project website. The current route planning phase of the EA Study will identify possible route alternatives for the new east-west transportation corridor and the two north-south links. The short listed practical route alternatives will be studied and evaluated to determine a technically and environmentally preferred route alternative to extend a new transportation corridor easterly from Highway 407 to Highway 35/115 and the two highway/transitway links. Two-thirds of youth ages 13-17 say the fear PIC #2 will present the route alternatives being considered as part of the route planning phase of the EA, the process for identifying a short list of route alternatives and a refined Study Area. The PICs will be conducted in an open house format, of losing their parents' respect is one of the with no formal presentation provided.

Joan Atherfold, regional chairwoman of the Durham branch of the Catho- lic Women’s League, said more than 1,200 signatures have been collected in one parish alone to show support of Bill C-22, which if passed would raise the age of consent from 14 to 16. The bill had its first reading in June and recently underwent a second reading. “It’s just not right,” Ms. Atherfold said of the current law, adding that in the United States sexual consent laws stand at around 18 years of age. Mary Hawkley, co-president of CASE (Canadian Addressing Sexual Exploita- tion), said the group recently wrapped up its 2006 Ribbons of Signatures campaign, in which members wore white ribbons for a period of a week and then presented them to local MPs -- including Jim Flaherty in Whitby and Colin Carrie in Oshawa -- as a sign of soli- darity that child protection laws need strengthening. Ms. Hawkley said Canada’s current age of consent law is among the lowest in the Western world: “We want the age of consent raised to at least 16 and we would like it higher,” she said. The white ribbon is not a petition, she said, rather a symbolic act among members and groups that believe the current law needs changing. Ms. Hawkley said she hopes the age of consent will be raised before year’s end. “We’re just trying to stop these people who are on the streets... who take advantage of young people. It may be a small gesture but we need to do this... we need to get somebody’s attention,” she said. “We’re still looking at young teenag- ers, especially girls, who are waiting for that charger on the white horse to Volunteers sought for the Canadian Liver Foundation Casino excitement close to home.

AJAX — A chance to appear in a movie has forced Corey Sevier to set aside his duty as the emcee of Ajax on Stage. Replacing him is actress Sadie LeBlanc, who portrays Helen in the CBC series ‘Rumours’. “I was disappointed for us, but thrilled for Corey,” says Tracy Mc- Murray, the Town of Ajax’s youth co-ordinator. “It was a great opportunity for a young, working actor. Corey was disappointed that he won’t be available, but we are very excited to have Sadie act as emcee. It’s amazing how many successful young people have come out of Ajax. We have lots of talent to be proud of.” Both Sevier and LeB- lanc are from Ajax. Ajax on Stage is a showcase of youth talent. More than 20 acts have been selected and include bands, singers and dancers. It’s on Saturday, Nov. 18 in the community theatre at J. Clarke Richardson Collegiate- Notre Dame Catholic Secondary School. The event runs from 6 to 9 p.m. and the schools are on Harwood Avenue north of Rossland Road. Tickets are still available at the Ajax and McLean community centres and cost $2.25 each.
