Emil Kolb Parkway to open soon
By Bill Rea
It’s been talked about for decades, but the final link in the
Bolton bypass is about to open.
The entire road itself is not
slated to open until Aug. 10,
but there was a celebration of
its completion Tuesday.
The new road is 4.2 kilometres in length and it connects
Regional Road 50 to the north
of Bolton with Coleraine Drive
to the west. This will eliminate
the need for through traffic to
drive through the Bolton core,
thus reducing traffic volumes.
The road has been named after Emil Kolb, who was Chair
of Peel Region for 32 years,
stepping down last fall, after
serving as Mayor of Caledon
and sitting on both Caledon and
Albion Township councils. He
drove along the road to the ceremonies, accompanied by current
Regional Chair Frank Dale.

Canada wins show jumping gold
There’s often not a great difference between gold
and silver medals.
In the case of the team show jumping competition
at the Pan American Games, that difference amounted to a fraction of a second Thursday.
The Canadian Show Jumping Team won the gold
medal.
Held over two nail-biting rounds, Canada persevered to win the team gold with seven faults over Argentina with eight faults and the United States with
12 for bronze. It was a proud moment as Canada’s
Minister of State (Sport) Bal Gosal, hung the gold
around the necks of each member of the Canadian
team.
The team consists of Yann Candele of Caledon,
Tiffany Foster of North Vancouver, Eric Lamaze
of Schomberg and “Captain Canada” Ian Millar of
Perth.
Things were looking a little tight for the Canadians
toward the end. The first three competitors cleared
all the jumps, although Candele did pick up a time
fault. Millar picked up five faults, knocking down one
rail in his outing, but his score was tossed out.
At this point, Argentina was the only team that
had a chance to catch Canada. Their last rider was
Jose Larocca Jr., and it was announced as he entered
the ring that a faultless round would mean a tie for
gold. Larocca cleared all the jumps, but he took 83.9
seconds to do it, and that fraction of a second was
crucial.

Second annual Light Up the Runway next week
Brampton Flight Centre (BFC) and Bethell Hospice Foundation will be hosting the second annual
Light Up the Runway Walk to raise awareness and
funds.
It will be next Thursday (Aug. 6).
Bethell Hospice is the only residential hospice
serving the Caledon, Brampton, Dufferin County
and West Woodbridge areas, providing essential services such as bereavement, grief counselling, palliative and hospice care, all free of charge.
“We’re thrilled to co-host this important fundraiser again,” commented BFC Controller Daphne Parsons. “It’s gratifying to see how local groups come together to make a huge difference in the lives of local
residents who are dealing with end-of-life issues.”
All proceeds raised will go toward maintaining
Bethell Hospice programs and services. The Hospice relies on donors and events such as Light Up
the Runway Walk for about 40 per cent of its annual
fundraising, with the remainder of its funding coming from the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care.
“We are so grateful to Brampton Flight Centre for
making Light Up the Runway an annual event,” said
Bethell Hospice Foundation Fundraising Manager Julie Hymers. “This kind of ongoing community
support ensures that Bethell Hospice can continue to
provide end-of-life care to anyone in need, regardless
of their financial situation.”
Mayor Allan Thompson will officiate the opening
ceremonies at this year’s Walk, which will also feature popular jazz trio, Kontakt, other special guests
and giveaways.
Everyone is welcome. Registration is $15 and participants are asked to raise a minimum of $30. Walkers can also purchase a commemorative candle for
$25 to help light up the runway and pay tribute to
someone they know or remember. Participants aged
14 and under must be accompanied by an adult while
those between 15 to 18 years, must present a signed
waiver by a consenting adult.
The public can also support the Hospice by pledging a donation toward a registered walker.
Registration and sign in begins at 7:30 p.m., with
opening ceremonies at 9. The Walk starts at 9:30
p.m.

Runway Walk, visit www.bramptonflightcentre.

Yann Candele, Tiffany Foster, Eric Lamaze and “Captain Canada” Ian Millar waved to the
crowd with their new gold medals around their necks.

Gold puts team in 2016 Olympics
From page A2
“We wanted this so badly for our team
and country,” Millar commented after the
medal presentation. “It’s too close when it
comes down to a fraction of a second for
the gold medal.
Canada also stamped its ticket to the
2016 Rio Olympics, while Argentina
claimed the only other qualifying spot
available. The United States and the
home nation, Brazil, were pre-qualified.
The course was designed by Canada’s
Michel Vaillancourt, individual silver
medalist at the 1976 Montreal Olympics
Canada was tied for third with Brazil
following the opening round of competition with six faults. Colombia held the
lead at the half-way point with one fault
while Argentina sat second with two
faults. Canada piled on the pressure however, counting only the one time fault in
the second round to move up.
Caledon’s own Candele was the hometown hero, delivering the best scores of
the Canadian Show Jumping Team riding Showgirl, a 15-year-old chestnut selle
francais mare owned by the Watermark
Group. Candele jumped clear in the first
and second round of competition, but was
caught by the clock both times to pick up
one time fault in each round.
“Canada is the best! Our team is awesome!” said Candele, 44.“We have the
youth with Tiffany, and after you have
Ian and Eric, who are veterans and super experienced. Tiffany and I try to put
good scores and let the veterans carry the
team. We try our hearts out, and we know
we have them coming behind us.”
“To win in front of a home crowd is
more special, but winning a gold medal
is always a special moment,” he added “It
doesn’t matter where it is!”
In a dramatic day of sport, Foster had
a stop on course after making an error
judging the distance one of the fences in
the opening round. She quickly redeemed
herself, coming back in the second round
to jump clear for Canada riding Tripple
X III, a 13-year-old dark bay Anglo European stallion owned by Andy and Carlene
Ziegler’s Artisan Farms LLC.
“That wasn’t an ideal start for me,” she
said. “That was not the plan.”
“I told the guys that if they kept us in
the game, I would go clear; at least I delivered!” added Foster, who was one day
shy of her 31st birthday. “It means everything to win the gold medal. I’ve never
won a gold medal. I’ve never even done a
Pan American Games. It’s incredible. Our
team is the best!”
Commenting on her mount, Tripple X
III, Foster said they’ve only been together
about a year.
“We clicked really quickly,” she commented.
Having incurred four faults following a
late rail at fence 12 in the opening round,
Lamaze was clear in the second. His incredible performance riding Coco Bongo,
a 10-year-old bay Rheinlander stallion
also owned by Artisan Farms LLC, was
met with thunderous applause from the
audience, and secured Canada’s Olympic
qualification.
“It means everything!” said Lamaze, 47,
of Canada’s gold medal performance. “The
first goal was to qualify for Rio, and then
to win a gold medal. We have a lot of fans
here in the stands cheering for us, and we
wanted to give them something to cheer
about!”
“Ian and I have had some great success together on the team, and it’s great
to share a medal with Yann and Tiffany,”
continued Lamaze, who had previously
won team silver and bronze and individual bronze medals before making his fifth
consecutive Pan Am Games appearance
in 2015.“To do it here at home in Toronto
is extra-special.”
Lamaze was also individual gold medalist at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
“Moments like this, you remember forever,” he remarked. “I love the group effort we put together.”
Millar claimed a team gold medal in his
record 10th Pan American Games appearance. It had been 28 years since Canada
last won team gold at the 1987 Games
in Indianapolis, when Millar was part of
the team with Big Ben, and also claimed
individual gold. Millar delivered a clear
round, with one time fault, in the opening round when Canada needed it most,
riding Dixson, a 12-year-old bay Belgian
Warmblood gelding owned by Susan and
Ariel Grange.
“When the going gets tough, the tough
gets going!” said Millar, 68, who attributes his longevity in the sport to his
daily exercise regimen. “This was a tough
one at home. We are going to Rio, which
was very important, obviously, and we
have gold medals hanging around our
necks. The mission was accomplished. It
is a very big deal. Rio it is!”
“We’ve checked off a lot of boxes today,
and I feel a big sense of relief,” declared
Canadian Show Jumping Team chef
d’equipe Mark Laskin. “Qualified for the
Olympics? Check. Gold medal at the Pan
American Games? Check. Winning in our
home country in front of our home fans?
Check. I am really thrilled.”
Canada misses medals in
individual show jumping
By Bill Rea
There were a lot of hopes riding on Canada heading into Saturday’s individual
show jumping event in the Pan American Games, but disappointment when the
event was over.
Yann Candele of Caledon, Eric lamaze
of Schomberg and Ian Millar of Perth
were among the 35 competitors entering
the first of two rounds Saturday, but all
three struggled, with only the top 20 being eligible to advance.
The competition was at the OLG Caledon Pan Am Equestrian Park in Palgrave,
and it saw competitors tackle a new track
set by Canadian course designer Michel
Vaillancourt, individual silver medalist at
the 1976 Montreal Olympics.
Lamaze had the most heartaches. He
and his mount Coco Bongo, a 10-year-old
bay Rheinlander stallion owned by Artisan Farms LLC were doing very well on
the course, until they came to a triple
combination near the end. In the end, Lamaze finished with 10 faults, putting him
in 22nd place and out of the running.
Millar, aboard Dixson, a 12-year-old bay
Belgian Warmblood gelding owned by Susan and Ariel Grange, picked up eight faults
in the first round, and came within a fraction of a second of collecting a time fault. He
did better in the final round, collecting four
jumping faults and one time fault, giving
him a total of 13 for the day. In the end, he
was relegated to a tie for 16th place.
Candele was the second last rider to go out
for the first round on Showgirl, a 15-yearold chestnut selle francais mare owned by
the Watermark Group, and he drew eight
jumping faults. He got eight more in the
second round, dropping him to 19th.
It took a jump-off between Mclain Ward
of the United States and Andres Rodriguez of Venezuela to decide who would
get the gold medal. Rodriguez turned in
a very fast performance riding Darlon
van Groenhove, but knocked a rail down
in the process. Ward took about three
seconds longer on Rothchild, but kept everything standing to take the title. A fiveway jump-off was needed to decide who
would get the bronze. It went to American
Lauren Hough aboard Ohlala.
“This horse defies the odds,” Ward commented after the medal presentation,
observing that he didn’t think Rothchild
would amount to a show jumper, but he
did. “He’s just really a competitive horse.
His heart is as big as they come. He gives
you everything he has.
Rodriguez also had plenty of praise for
his mount.
“This horse has been great,” he declared, commenting there were behaviour
troubles in the early days, but they were
straightened out. “He does everything you
ask him to do.”

Cyclists have to follow the rules of the road too
From the desk of Inspector Tim Melanson
Caledon’s picturesque landscape is a
perfect environment for cycling.
As a result, many local residents and
visitors to our area take advantage of “the
rolling hills of Caledon” as a popular cycling location.
Many cyclists are well versed in their
sport and know the rules of the road. This
release will provide some of the rules and
regulations under the Highway Traffic Act
of Ontario.
Under Ontario’s Highway Traffic Act
(HTA), a bicycle is defined as a vehicle and
cyclists are required to obey the rules of
the road.
HTA requires vehicles to “turn out to the
right to allow the vehicle to pass” when be-
ing passed by vehicles travelling at a higher rate of speed. The Act further requires
that slow-moving vehicles move to the
right, but this is only when being passed.
The move to the right is to facilitate the
space to allow a faster vehicle to safely
pass.
Caledon OPP recommends that cyclists
ride as close as practicable to the right
curb of the roadway, except when:
$85, plus court costs and victim surcharge,

ndrew Kohnen walked away from a successful
career in logistics to pursue his dream of
reconnecting with the brewing roots of his family.
This carried him to the UK’s prestigious Brewlab in
Sunderland, England, where he procured the alchemy
that would drive his signature brewing style.
Andrew Kohnen
Brewmaster & Partner
He eventually made his way to Germany to visit relatives
and seek possible employment at the old family brewery
(sold in the 60’s darn it!) that still carries his mother’s
maiden name. After a few months he came back to
Canada to get some paperwork done. But he ended up
staying here at Hockley – for the beer, and the Canadian
dream. Classic!

Claims filed against Mayor Thompson and Councillor McClure
By Bill Rea
It looks like some elected officials in
Caledon are going to be brought into
court on conflict of interest allegations.
The Toronto Star reported Monday
that long-time Caledon resident Kelly Darnley has filed claims in Ontario
Superior Court against Mayor Allan
Thompson and Councillor Gord McClure.
The action against Thompson, according to the Star story, states he “actively
pushed development to the west of the
town where he or his family members
have a direct or indirect interest in substantial land holdings, thereby increasing the value of the lands.”
The story added the action alleges
Thompson has voted on numerous motions when he had a conflict and did not
declare them.
The Star also refers to a transaction in
which Thompson sold land to a developer for a reported $9.4 million.
Thompson addressed that matter earlier this month in an open letter that was
published in the July 9 edition of the Citizen, in which he stated “the sale of the
Thompson multi-family, three-generation farm this past April was a private
and difficult family decision. Our lands
were not part of the Bolton Residential
Expansion Study, the GTA West Corridor Study Area, Mayfield West phase 1,
Mayfield West phase 2 or the lands in
the Alloa Land Owner Group.”
“Any time I’ve had any conceivable
question about a potential conflict, I
have sought and received legal opinions,” he added in his letter. “I can state
with confidence that I was not, and I am
not, in a conflict of interest.”
“They’re desperate for a story, I
guess,” Thompson told the Citizen Monday. “Pan Am Games are over.”
He added the story was not much of
a surprise, as he was called by the Star
about a week and a half before.
“I have yet to be served, so for now,
there’s nothing here,” he added.
“It sounds pretty wild,” McClure told
the Citizen, adding he’s not yet been
served either. “Apparently, I’m going to
be.”

Editorial
Bypass will be great
There is still a week and a bit to go before it opens, but all
indications point to the fact the new Bolton Arterial Road (BAR)
is going to be a thing of beauty.
And we can hear people muttering “About time too.”
This bypass has been talked about and debated for years. We
have it on good authority that officials in the Albion and Bolton
areas had the idea they would be able to make real progress on
the bypass once the Second World War was won.
Well, it took a while longer than those people 70 years ago had
anticipated, but it’s finally here.
The road will help get traffic, especially heavy trucks, out of
the village core, and considering some of the near disasters that
have taken place over the last little while, such provisions are
very badly needed.
True, there are still a couple of complications. The northwestern portion of BAR, which will be the last part to open, is going to involve two roundabouts, and people not used to driving
through such installations might have a little trouble getting
the hang of them. Peel Region has some helpful tips to get people through them.
It’s also gratifying to see that Regional councillors last year had
the wisdom to name this final portion Emil Kolb Parkway, in honour of the Region’s long-time Chair and Caledon’s former Mayor.
Since Kolb is a politician, it’s not too difficult to find people
who disagreed with him. But we would argue it would be even
harder to find anyone who has had a better grasp on the issues
affected both Caledon and Peel over more than 40 years.
We can’t think of a better name for this stretch of road.

A better way to support
middle class families
Canadians don’t have to settle for the Conservative government’s family policies that give the most money to those who
need it the least. The Liberal Party has a better plan, one that
is focused on the middle class.
Recently Dufferin-Caledon Conservative MP David Tilson has
been heavily promoting the government’s plan. Its cornerstone
is “income splitting,” which gives a $2,000 tax break to those
making a quarter of a million dollars, but nothing to a single
mom. It helps fewer than 15 per cent of Canadian households,
and for those few, the biggest gains go to the wealthiest.
At a cost of $2 billion a year, income splitting uses an awful lot
of money to help a small and select group. No wonder the late
Jim Flaherty, while he was Finance Minister, said “I’m not sure
that overall it benefits our society.”
The second plank of the Conservative plan takes an identical
“cookie cutter” approach to everyone. It provides the exact same
limited benefit to the wealthiest as to the working poor.
Only the Liberal Party has a plan for more fair, generous support for middle class families and all those working so hard to
get there.
We will roll together the current jumble of child benefit programs, top them up with money saved from reducing government waste and target the benefits to lower and middle income
families. A new “Canada Child Benefit” (CCB) will provide a lot
more help, to nine out of 10 families.
The CCB will provide up to $553 monthly for each child
younger than six and $450 for each child older than six, indexed
to inflation and completely tax-free. The benefit gradually declines for those with higher incomes.
A family with one child younger than six and a household income of $90,000 would receive $3,245 each year, in excess of 50
per cent more than they do today.
A Liberal government will give a tax cut to the middle class
and provide middle class families with more support. Our plan
will create economic growth and put more money in the pockets
of those who need it most. That’s real change.

Former classmate applauds Hoy
I was delighted to have forwarded to me today the Content
piece by my old Ryerson Journalism schoolmate Claire Hoy.
I see that Claire has not lost his journalism skills although
the “porkchop” shows he may have lost a few strands of hair
since the 1960s. Claire never did suffer fools gladly, so his advocacy for the Monument To The Victims of Communism (Citizen,
May 21) is very welcome.
I personally have tried to support this venture by our government, via letters to the editor to several well-known Canadian
dailies, but with mixed success. There appears to be some “selective filtering” going on as to what gets printed when somebody
pro this project sends in a letter or an op-ed piece. So kudos to
the Caledon Citizen for running Claire’s welcome opinion.
As a former journalist, and somebody born in Eastern Europe
during the Second World War, it has been a lifetime battle to
get far too many in Canadian journalist ranks to admit to the
evils of communism. It’s “crickets chirping” and “let’s change
the subject” when it comes to an honest debate on what happened under communism and indeed continues to this very day.
And as Claire notes, that seems to start at the top with Chief
Justice Beverley McLachlin herself.
Good thing Prime Minister Harper is not listening.
Andy Neimers,

It happened today
It’s still not known for sure what happened to him.
What is known is former Teamsters Union president Jimmy Hoffa
went to a meeting and was never seen again.
He disappeared this day, July 30, 1975.
Looks like a job well done
I expect all of us have been through experiences that we have prepared for over
some extended time.
A lot of work goes into these events, and
anticipation is high. And once it’s going, in
the midst of the chaos, we get the gut feeling that things are going well. And then
it’s over.
I was in touch with such feelings Saturday afternoon as I was taking my leave
of the OLG Caledon Pan Am Equestrian
Park in Palgrave.
I was there covering the individual
show-jumping competition
in the Pan Am Games,
having applied a lot of
sweet talk to my wife to
get her permission to work
on our 17th anniversary. I
got there early, taking the
opportunity to actually explore the grounds (something I had not been able to
do on previous occasions),
checking out some of the
vending booths. I bumped
into a few people I knew
and chatted a bit.
And then there was the
actual competition. Being
a loyal Canadian, I walked
in with high hopes for our
side, considering the gold medal team
performance that had been turned in last
Thursday, and ended up being disappointed. I was hoping, at best, that I would hear
O Canada played, but I was willing to settle just for a medal, if it came to that. The
effort was gallant on the part if the three
Canadian men, but not sufficient. And it
is also true that the three people who ended up on the podium richly deserved to be
there.
I was there for the medal presentation,
and was once again struck by the expressions of the faces of the people having medals hung around their necks. Mayor Allan
Thompson had previously presented medals, and from what he later told me, he too
seemed to have been awed by the experience.
Then I stayed around for the session
between the medalists and the media. I
even got in my question about what they
thought of the facility, and received the appropriate reply
But eventually, it was time to go. I did
have a wife who had been abandoned for
most of the day, waiting to be taken out to
dinner for our anniversary.
It was a long walk from the media area
to the place where the shuttle buses were
loading for the trip back to the parking
area at Albion Hills Conservation Area,
and by that point, the crowds were well
ahead of me. I noticed a lot of dismantling was going on. The booths that had
been selling food and souvenirs (I got a
good start on my Christmas shopping last
week) were closed and deserted. There
was a station at which people could refill
their water bottles free of charge to stay
hydrated (very important under such conditions). I thought to top up mine on the
way out, and found it had been shut down
(I still had enough water to get me home).
Glancing into the main show ring, I saw
crews taking down the various jumps
which had been the objects of the competition. As I made my way further along the
path, I realized I was by myself. I looked
right around a couple of times and saw
not another person. There was just a lot of
open space, broken up by fences festooned
with banners that were bright with the
colours of the Games. And I was willing
to bet it would just be a matter of hours
before they were history too.
Considering all the activity that had
been going on over the past several days,
with throngs of people heading in every
direction possible, the sudden serenity
seemed almost eerie.
After all the work that went into getting
the park ready to host the games, along
with the sweat and effort it took to actually
put the show on, I detected a heavy case of
“let down” was in the cards for many of the
people involved.
True, there was still a lot of work involved in taking it all apart, But I knew as
I made my lonely progression, that it was
just a matter of days until all that would
be left was memories, along with a certain
sense of satisfaction over a
job well done.
It also dawned on me that
while I was thinking of the
situation in Palgrave, conditions would have been
pretty much the same at every site that hosted events
at the Games, with the possible exception of those that
will be hosting Parapan Am
Games events too. But their
time will come.
Saturday presented me
with lots of time to walk
about and talk to people.
The one thing that was not
in evidence was negativity.
True, there was a bit of
a disappointment that the Canadians
didn’t do better, but that’s part of a sporting event. Aside from that, I was among
throngs of people having a good time.
As well, there was the unique experience
of being among people from various other
countries. Many of the countries represented had their own cheering sections in
the stands, and as the competition wound
down, they got more wound up.
At the risk of creating an international
incident, while I had no real cheering interest after the Canadians had been eliminated, I found myself pulling for Andres
Rodriguez to take the gold Saturday, if for
no other reason than I was curious to hear
what the Venezuelan national anthem
sounded like (I am well familiar with The
Star Spangled Banner).
If there’s one major memory that people in the Greater Toronto Area can carry
away from these Games, it deals with how
well things worked out in the end. True,
there were a few glitches. I ought to know,
considering the number of hoops I personally had to jump through to be able to cover
the competitions in Palgrave. But seldom
does a project of this scale go off without
some issues.
For example, we hearD a lot of complaining in the days leading up to the Games
about high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes
on the major highways. But once things
got going, they seemed to sort themselves
out. I had a medical appointment in Toronto last Thursday, requiring me to drive
Highway 427. Traffic seemed to be a bit
heavier In the other lanes, in which I was
obliged to drive because I was alone, but
things weren’t too bad. Granted, I suspect
a lot of people were smart enough to adjust their driving habits on the assumption
that things were going to get a little tricky
during the Games.
I have watched Games like this (Olympics, Pan Ams, etc.) on TV lots of times in
the past. I remember in 1967, Canada’s
Centennial year, much was made of the
fact the Games were being held for the
first time in Canada (in Winnipeg). I was
just nine at the time, but I remember my
family used to gather around the TV every
night to watch the coverage.
For the last several days, what I had
watched on TV for many years became
part of my reality.
Like I stated above, there are going to be
plenty of memories of these Games. And I
know I’ll have them too.

Enhancing the safety and security of Canadians is a commitment
Our government remains committed to
helping ensure the safety and security of
Canadians across the country.
We have demonstrated this by taking
action, such as the passing of our government’s Anti-Terrorism Act, 2015. The
measures included in this Act will better protect Canadians from the evolving
threat of terrorism and help keep our
streets and communities safe.
Our government knows that the highest calling of any government is to protect
Canadians. We have never been afraid to
call jihadi terrorism for what it is and we
are also not afraid to confront it. We know
that these terrorists oppose everything
about Canadian society and our values.
In fact, they hate everything that makes
Canada the open, diverse and free society
that so many Canadians have chosen to
call home. Our government will not allow
Canada to become a safe haven for terrorists.
Unfortunately, we also know that the
threat of jihadi terrorism is not a future
threat; it is a present reality. As most
brutally demonstrated by last October’s

terrorist attacks in Ottawa at our National War memorial, in the Parliament
Buildings and in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Canada is not immune to the threat
of terrorism. The Anti-Terrorism Act,
2015 provides our police forces with the
required tools to keep pace with evolving
threats and better protect Canadians in
Dufferin-Caledon and communities across
Canada.
In line with measures taken by our allies, our government is taking additional action to ensure our police forces can
counter those who advocate terrorism;
prevent terrorist travel and the efforts
of those who seek to use Canada as a re-
cruiting ground; and disrupt planned attacks on Canadian soil.
The Anti-Terrorism Act, 2015 includes a
comprehensive package of measures that:
• criminalizes the advocacy or promotion
of terrorism offences in general;
• counters terrorist recruitment by giving
our courts the authority to order the removal of terrorist propaganda online;
• enhances the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS)’s powers to address
threats to the security of Canada while
ensuring that courts maintain oversight;
• provides law enforcement agencies with
enhanced ability to disrupt terrorism offences and terrorist activity;

• enhances the Passenger Protect Program by further mitigating threats to

travel by air for the purpose of engaging
in terrorism;
• makes it easier for law enforcement
agencies to detain suspected terrorists
before they can harm Canadians and to
toughen penalties for violating court ordered conditions on terrorist suspects;
• enables the effective and responsible
sharing of relevant national security information across federal departments and
agencies to better identify and address
threats;
• ensures that national security agencies
are better able to protect and use classified information when denying entry and
status to non-citizens who pose a threat to
Canada; and,
• provides witnesses and other participants in national security proceedings and
prosecutions with additional protection.
The measures included in the Anti-Terrorism Act, 2015 honour our commitment
to protect Canadians and will help keep
our streets and communities safe.

uals are willing to pay for this important
precaution, if the volunteer is willing to
give back to multiple organizations, it can
become costly because a criminal record
check must be prepared for each organization that requests it.
In many cases volunteers have to pay
out of pocket for a criminal record check
or the organization has to fundraise to underwrite the cost of the record check.
That is why I introduced my private
member’s bill, Bill 79 — the Helping Volunteers Give Back Act, 2015.
My private member’s bill would allow
volunteers to pay for a criminal record
check once per year, yet distribute up to
five copies of their record check to multiple organizations at no additional cost to
the volunteers or organization. This will
enable individuals to volunteer with multiple organizations without feeling the
unnecessary financial burden.
Volunteerism is important to communities and without volunteers our schools,
hospitals and community groups would
suffer, so I encourage you to write or
email the Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services at ynaqvi.
[email protected], encouraging him
to incorporate my private member’s bill

Here’s a question: Would the world be
better off had Bill Gates or Steve Jobs
never been born? How about Larry Page
and Mark Zuckerberg?
Pope Francis seems to think so.
Despite the fact the above-mentioned
men – and countless others – created millions of jobs and untold economic benefits,
not just for themselves, but for people
around the world, it seems the Pope has
a problem with those dreaded capitalists.
Francis, who spent many years working among the poor in South America,
no doubt genuinely bleeds for those who
have been left behind by the system. But
instead of blaming capitalism – which,
despite its imperfections, has made even
the poor better off than they’ve ever been
in world history – he might want to get
past his quasi-Marxist ideology and look
at the corruption in government in many
of the poorest countries, surely a bigger
source of pain than anything capitalism
has ever done.
There he was recently, standing on a
platform in Bolivia, comparing global capitalism to the “dung of the devil,” and condemning the systemic “greed for money” as
a “subtle dictatorship” that “condemns and
enslaves men and women.”
He was standing next to Bolivian President Evo Morales – who underscored his
world view by sporting a Che Guevara
patch on his jacket (Che, you may recall,
was a communist killer-for-hire who
helped Fidel Castro in Cuba and spent his
life fomenting revolution) and Morales,
who openly praises Francis for his unfettered Socialism, presented the Pope with
a wooden crucifix shaped like the Soviet
hammer and sickle. Nice.
After his latest anti-capitalist rants
in South America, Rev. Robert A. Sirico,
president of the Michigan-based Acton
Institute for the Study of Religion and
Liberty, told the New York Times, “I wish
Francis would focus on positives, on how a
free-market economy guided by an ethical
framework, and the rule of law, can be part
of the solution for the poor.”
No such luck, alas. Francis seems happy
to join the chorus of class warriors who
blame capitalism for all the ills of the
world, absolutely convinced that anybody
who succeeds does so at the direct expense
Affairs
of thoseNational
who don’t succeed
economically.
Any Claire
numberHoy
of economic studies clearly
show that while there is still enormous
poverty in the world, there is far less than
ever before. While capitalism is not the sole
reason for the betterment of most people’s
lives, it’s certainly a major part of it and
a far, far better system than any socialist
and/or Marxist economy.
Perhaps Francis may wish to look at the
billions upon billions of assets held by the
Roman Catholic Church around the world,
much of it enhanced by a tax-free status,
and a wealth which has always invested in
capitalism to make itself even larger.
It is certainly true that personal greed
motivates many – but not all – highly successful capitalists. But so what? When
they prosper, so do the rest of us, not out
of any great feeling of largesse – although
most wealthy people donate a lot of money
to charities – but because their actions create even more economic reactions and in
the end we all benefit to varying degrees.
It is not government for the most
part that creates wealth in society. It is
hard-working men and women who operate enterprises, both big and small, thereby
creating jobs for those who manufacture
and sell their products and/or goods.
There is little doubt that when it comes
to theology, at least as practised by the
Roman Catholic Church, Francis must be
conceded to be a world authority.
But understanding one discipline doesn’t
give him special insights into everything
else, and his extraordinary railing against
those who actually create wealth – as
opposed to government, which tends only
to spend (waste?) it – does neither himself
nor his Church any favors, except among
the usual suspects (many of whom are
themselves wealthy) who spend their energies blaming the dreaded capitalists for
everything that is and will be wrong with
the world.
We are told repeatedly, even in Canada,
that – largely because of Stephen Harper,
apparently – our own middle class has suffered under the capitalist system.
Actually, it hasn’t. Recent Finance
Department data show that Canadians
had a higher income in 2011 than they
did before the recession and the share of
Canadians living in low-income families
has dipped to its lowest level in decades.
But hey, don’t tell that to Justin Trudeau
or Thomas Mulcair or, it seems, to Pope
Francis. They’re not interested in reality.

Independently owned and operated
Brewers split weekend with NDBL’s top team
By Jake Courtepatte
The Bolton Brewers may be starting to
hit their stride in the AAA Greater Toronto Baseball League, but it may be too little, too late.
A valiant effort came up just short of
a comeback last Wednesday against the
14-7 Leaside Leafs, who led the Brewers
9-0 at the midway point of the third inning. Adam Wallace led the way, reaching base three times while the Brewers
mounted six unanswered runs, with the
score 9-6 through five innings of play.
Unfortunately, it would be as close as
they would get, with Leaside putting up
four in the sixth inning. Nick Boyd and
John Hutchinson still crossed the plate
for the Brewers, but it wasn’t enough, going down by a score of 13-8.
An even more difficult task was at hand
Saturday for Bolton, in a double-header
with the league-leading East York Bulldogs on the road.
Game one had East York flexing their
pitching muscle, sending ace Ryan Semenuk to the mound. Bolton put up a good
fight, knocking eight hits off the pitcher through five innings, but rarely was
second base seen by the Brewers. Brett
Chater, Mike Wallace and Brendan Lyons
were the only players to cross the plate.
A six-run inning for the Bulldogs is
what sunk Brewers’ starting pitcher Nick
Boyd, who despite cruising to the end of
the seventh, couldn’t get the run support
to match. Bulldogs took it 8-3.
Greg Keenan earned his first win and
Nick Boyd his first save of the year in
the second game of the double-header, a
game where the Bolton bats shone more
than they have all season.
They exploded for four runs in the first,
and continued playing multi-run innings
until the end of the fourth, up 11-7 in a
high-scoring affair. With one out in the
ninth, and the score now 11-9, Boyd came
in to relieve middleman Matt Blacklaws
to close out the win. He allowed one hit
through the final two outs in the clutch
victory.
After a disastrous start to their first full
AAA season, the Brewers put up a record
of 3-4 in July.
The Brewers had more wins in July
than they achieved in May and June combined.
Four games remain in the regular season, and they will likely need to win them
all to stand any chance of a playoff run.
The GTBL will be taking a break from
regular season play for provincial elimination in Windsor this coming Civic
Weekend. The Brewers drew Mississauga
in the first round of the 22-team playoff,
kicking off Friday evening.
They pick back up in league play next
Thursday against the basement-dwelling
Martingrove Sox.

Dodgers entering playoffs on a high note
By Jake Courtepatte
An up-and-down season has come to a
successful end for the Bolton Dodgers, as
they prepare for their first-ever post-season run.
They wrapped up their North Dufferin
League regular season quite nicely last
week, defeating the powerhouse Jays and
earning a final two points off the Orangeville Giants.

CALEDON'S ATHLETES
Peewee Braves finding success
on and off the field
By Jake Courtepatte
Every year, the 2002 Bolton Braves baseball club takes a
team outing to kick off the season, and do a little bonding.
The first three years that Robert Sterritt was the head coach,
the team roughed it camping on a parent’s property in Caledon,
followed by a big family barbecue. This season, they took their
expedition to the next level, going tree-trekking at the Heart Lake
Conservation, even joined by a few of the mothers.
“It’s not all about baseball!” Sterritt told the Citizen.
As with many minor sports teams, these dryland bonding
activities are what create a successful team – a word that can
certainly describe the peewee Braves. The young Braves have
put together an impressive 11-3-0 record so far this season,
good for third place in their ‘A’ ball league.
“The team has come together very well this year,” said Sterritt.
Since Sterritt started coaching the team four years ago, more
than half the roster stands the same today. Having grown and
matured into young athletes together, the 11-player squad has
proven to be a threat on both defense and offense.
“We have great pitching,” said Sterritt. “Anyone can pitch
at any time. Our bats have been alive too with over
10 home runs. We lead the league in
fewest runs allowed, so
our defence has been great too. If they keep playing the way they
have, we have a good chance to win the OBA championship.”
These kind of teams take more than just skill, but a lot of
practice. The 2002 Braves start indoor training in January,
hitting the gym twice a week until the end of April to prepare for
the regular season. A 20-game schedule is spread out from May
to August, against teams from as far north as Barrie and as far
south as Toronto.
Regular season play is only just the beginning, though, for the
Braves. The team has competed in five tournaments a year for
the last two years, most recently competing in a hard-fought
championship in Niagara Falls against a team from LaSalle.
In a 4-0 hole early in the first inning, the Braves crawled back
to a tie by the end of the third. LaSalle went up again 9-4 into the
seventh and final inning, with the bottom of the order bringing
the Bolton squad back to within two with a man on and the tying
run at the plate. Unfortunately, the next two batters struck out,
but second place would be the worst finish they’d seen so far
this year.
The Braves have one win and three second-place finishes so
far this year, three of the tournaments playing as ‘AA’ events.
Their win came on home turf in the annual Bolton tournament.
With only one week to go in the regular season, the peewee
Bolton Braves are looking ahead to York-Simcoe Baseball League
playoffs from Aug. 21 to 23, followed by the Ontario Baseball
Association championships the first weekend of September.
They close out the season with a home game Aug. 8 against
the Leaside Leafs, and rest assured they will be looking for that
provincial title come Labour Day.

for the Dodgers, going the distance as well.
He allowed a run by Connor Smith in the
first inning, but cruised to the seventh allowing the Dodgers to build up a sizable lead.
Jon Bloomfield, Michael Gemmiti, Colin
McKeen, Shawn Hansen and Nick Taconga all crossed the plate (Bloomfield and
McKeen twice) to head to the seventh inning up 7-1.
Hansen had two strikeouts in the seventh on way to a 7-3 victory. He gave up
only three hits while striking out six.
Orangeville snuck into the post-season
action by winning four-of-six in the final
week of play.
That caps off the Dodgers’ regular season with a respectable 14-12-0 record,
good for fifth place and enough to even
secure home-field advantage. They will
open up the Strother Cup playoffs with a
series against the sixth-place Barrie Angels.
It’s a series that could very well go the
distance, as the two teams actually tied
in final standings, with the Dodgers coming out on top with a higher win column.
They even split their season series, with
the Angels winning early on 4-3 and the
Dodgers earning a commanding 12-4 win
just three weeks ago.
Schedules will be finalized at manager’s
meeting after press-time.

We thought of you today
But that is nothing
new,We thought about
you yesterday,
And days before that too,
We think of you in
silence,
We often speak your
name
Now all we have are
memories,
And your picture in a
frame,
Your memory is our
keepsake,
With which we will never
part
God has you in his
keeping
We have you in our
hearts.
