A Bradford family has been displaced from their home following an aggressive fire Sunday night.

Bradford fire crews responded to a call regarding the fire around 6:30 p.m. When they arrived, they noticed a wooden shed engulfed in flames. The fire quickly spread to the aluminum soffit surrounding the roof of the house, forcing firefighters to target the fire from inside and outside the home at 154 Essa St.

According to Fire Chief Kevin Gallant, four

BWG crews spent more than two hours on-scene to gain control of the fire.

There were 23 firefighters on scene to combat the flames, while a crew from Innisfil manned the station in case any other calls came in, he said.

Damage to the house was quite exten-sive, not just from the fire, but from the water as well. The homeowners will be staying else-where for now.

All occupants of the home made it out safely and no injuries were reported. At this time, it is unknown as to what caused the fire.

Traffic Ticket AdvocatesChris Buckle

Whats the difference between a Part Iand a Part III offence?

For starters a Part I offence is called an offence notice (ticket) and has an out of court settlement (fine) on it, whereas aPart III is a Summons (has a date on which you must attend court to answer to the charge(s)).Part I matters require you to request a court date (if you want to challenge the ticket), they are often minor offences and thecourt penalty is kept at a minimum. Court penalties for Part III offences are more severe and can involve licence suspensions,jail time, heavy fines etc. Some examples of a Part III offence include; Drive without Insurance, Drive Under Suspension,Racing, Fail to Remain at Accident, Speeding over 50 km/h and over.It is important to know your options I always recommend that you take advantage of my FREE INITIAL CONSULTATION.

Danube Seniors Centrecelebrated their March and April

birthdays during their birthday lunch.


Another year, another successful Town & Country Living Show by the Bradford Board of Trade in Bradford West Gwillimbury.

Though the April 23 event only ran for one day, rather than its normal weekend-long stint at the Bradford and District Memorial Community Centre, BBT president Nicholas Carriere says attendance remained high.

Although the number of vendors was a little lower than normal, we really felt that

the quality of the booths and displays were excellent, he added.

We added a lot of new elements this year and received some great feedback from the attendees and the vendors. We are always looking for feedback to make this event bet-ter for everyone.

From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., the show featured a variety of booths and entertainment including town council the Holland Marsh Growers Association, face painting, a flash mob by the Bradford Bellas of Treblemakers

Music Academy and even a remake of the famous DeLorean from Back to the Future, provided by Drive True Mechanical.

Guests were also given the opportunity to take home goodie bags and enter to win gifts and prizes from various local businesses.

Upstairs, sweet treat lovers could indulge in some yummy baked goods from local bak-

eries Smoochies and Sweet Bs Catering and Confectionery. A Bradford Bakes contest was also held for amateur bakers.

None of this would have been possible without all the volunteers, the BBT directors, executive team and the show committee, said Carriere.

A big thank you goes out to all of them.

Living show draws impressive crowd to town

Wynne leads in incompetency

I want to congratulate Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne on heading what must surely be the most incompetent govern-ment in the western world when it comes to energy policy and hydro.

I just heard hydro rates are, again, about to rise. The new kw/h rates (low, mid, high) will become $0.087, $0.13, and $0.18 May 1.

Lest you think that is not so bad, this is the cost only of the generation.

To these numbers must be added the transmission and distribution charges, line loss charges, HST and other fees, all of which jack up the bill for hydro. These added charges mean that the actual cost of electricity delivered to your door is about 2.2 times the cost the government likes to claim is your rate.

People in Ontario are actually paying $0.19, $0.26 and an astounding $0.396 for peak times. A component of this outrage is wind and solar for which Ontario happily pays two times to 3.5 times world rates to the lucky feed in tariff (FIT) lottery win-ners.

We must not forget that Ontario also pays independent generators to not gener-ate power at times when the transmission lines are at capacity.

Ontario sells surplus power to the United States at less than the cost of

Encourage more track useewmarket resident Brian Walker was running on the track at Huron Heights Secondary School

last week, as he had done regularly for the past 15 years, when he was approached by a school represen-tative and asked to leave.

Its unclear the specific reason for the request was it because the field portion of the area wasnt ready for use or was it because the track was considered private property?

Walker obliged the request and left without pressing the matter, so the specifics may never be discov-ered.

Regardless, the request was out of line.

Its understandable that officials dont want anyone on the field this early in the season. Its not uncom-mon for fields to be off limits until the ground dries out enough to ensure the field will hold up for the entire season.

But Walker wasnt using the field. He was using the track the already dry and ready-for-use track.

As for the private property argu-ment, that would be understand-able if he was there during regular school hours, but it was 5:20 p.m., so he wasnt impeding any school-sanctioned student activities.

The fact of the matter is when students are using the field, it should be considered off limits to the public.

But when all of the school buses are gone and the students have left for the day, theres no reason com-munity residents who pay for these facilities through their educa-tion taxes shouldnt be permit-ted to make use of these outdoor facilities.

It makes no sense to leave tracks and fields empty when the focus is on trying to get people more active.

We should be going out of our way to encourage the proper use of our facilities at all times of the day.

generation. Do the U.S. recipients of this Ontario taxpayer largess thank the Cana-dian turkeys?

I certainly hope so. The Ontario auditor general late last fall blasted the Wynne gov-ernment for its ongoing mismanagement of hydro. Did anyone notice? Do Ontario citizens care?

I came upon a 2010 hydro bill for my home that was before the time of day fees were introduced.

My cost then, all fees and taxes included, was $0.125 kw/h delivered to my home. In five short years, my hydro costs have risen 317 per cent. Alas, none of my retirement investments have done this well.

To paraphrase Ross Perot the Ameri-can businessman who ran for the U.S. presidency as an independent candidate in 1992 and 1996 Hear that sucking sound? Its jobs leaving (Ontario) for other places.

Our hydro rates are a real job killer for any industry that needs power.

May 1, the date we get our new usuri-ous rates up from our old usurious rates, is also known as Mayday.

Mayday is a call for emergency help when circumstances are dire.

Wynnes grossly incompetent energy mismanagement leaves me no choice. Mayday! Mayday!

If youre reading this, you prob-ably wont be surprised to learn that the rumoured demise of community newspapers is vastly incorrect.

Readership of weekly com-munity newspapers in Ontario is strong, according to the Com-munity Newspaper Readership Report released by BrandSpark International. The report, con-ducted in partnership with Metro-land Media, found that 73 per cent of Ontarians surveyed have read at least one of the last four issues of their Metroland Media commu-nity newspaper.

Locally, the results are even stronger at 83 per cent.

That means more than eight in 10 people turn to the Aurora Ban-ner, Bradford West Gwillimbury Topic, East Gwillimbury Express, Georgina Advocate, King Connec-tion, Markham Economist & Sun, Newmarket Era, Richmond Hill/Thornhill Liberal, Stouffville Sun-Tribune and Vaughan Citizen for their local news.

Most impressive is that almost nine of 10 younger adults (between the ages of 18 and 35)

surveyed are reading their com-munity newspaper as much or more often than last year. That number jumps to 92 per cent for all adults surveyed.

I think its fair to say that we were surprised at the strength of community newspapers in light of how print in general is perceived, said Mark Baltazar, vice-president and partner at BrandSpark Inter-national.

These findings reinforce how much local information matters to Ontarians. Community news-papers are playing a major role in the lives of the people we studied, keeping them connected to whats going on in their own backyards.

Compared to last year, 13 per cent of the people surveyed indi-cate they are reading Metroland newspapers more often, while almost 80 per cent have not changed their readership habits. Only 6 per cent of the people indi-cate they are reading it less.

This shows there is a strong appetite for the community-level, hyper-local news that community newspapers, in print and online, are uniquely set up to deliver.

Community papers still being read

Now everyone knows how great we are!

Each year we help over 50,000 businesses connect with local consumers.


Its been nearly two years since Bradford West Gwillimbury introduced its very own transit system. To celebrate, the town will offer free transit on May 2.

BWG launched its first municipal transit service on May 1, 2014, offering a 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekday service along two routes.

Since its launch, service hours have expanded to begin at 7 a.m., allowing early morning commuters to use the service. Routes have also been reworked to provide better service to both residential areas and the downtown core, as well as improve ease of transferring.

We are very proud of our transit service and the feedback we have received from riders has been consistently excellent, said Mayor Rob Keffer.

We anticipate the service will continue to grow and improve to meet the needs of those who live, work and play in our community.

Keffer hopes that many residents will take advantage of the free transit available on May 2, noting that its a way to thank the commu-nity for using the towns system.

He says it may also encourage non-riders to try it out.

On top of a free ride next week, the town will also run its Share a Selfie contest, taking place throughout May.

Riders are encouraged to submit a self-photo taken on a BWG transit bus, by posting it to the BWG Transit Facebook page. Three pre-loaded transit passes will be awarded to first-place winners, as well as numerous sec-ondary prizes provided by the towns transit partner, Switzer-Carty Transportation.

Complete contest details are available at townofbwg.com/transit.

Transit fares have remained at $3 since the services launch when paying cash, or $2 per trip using an easyPASS card.

The reloadable cards can be purchased and loaded at the town administration office, finance office or at the leisure centre.

Ride Bradford transit for free May 2

Councillors Ron Orr, Peter Dykie and Peter Ferragine, Deputy Mayor James Leduc, Coun-cillor Gary Baynes, Mayor Rob Keffer and Councillor Gary Lamb are excited about the free transit offer May 2.

Students at W.H. Day Elementary School and St. Angela Merici Catholic School will take part in the towns active transportation committee initiative to use human-powered transportation on May 4.

In partnership with South Simcoe Police, both local schools will participate in the first Walk n Wheel Wednesday event, encour-aging kids to walk, bike, skateboard or use non-motorized ways of getting to their class-rooms.

Bradford Mayor Rob Keffer and Deputy Mayor James Leduc will each be in atten-dance at one of the schools to congratulate walkers and wheelers as they arrive.

Each school has planned the logistics of their own event and how they wish to reward classes for participation. To further encour-age students, Bradford Canadian Tire has generously donated 10 bike helmets for each school to distribute as they see fit.

The idea of getting kids up and out of the house without a ride from a parent has been an ongoing topic of discussion at multiple council meetings. Congestion in and around school zones has slowly worsened in recent years.

Councillor Gary Baynes, who also serves at the active transportation committees chair-person, says the May 4 event will encourage more kids to use active means of getting

to school, as well as teaching the basics of pedestrian safety.

He is confident that getting more kids out walking and wheeling will have a positive effect on local traffic.

The more kids who walk or bike,

the fewer cars there will be trying

to get in and out of schools

and the safer the roads become

for pedestrians and cyclists.

We are very aware of how big a problem traffic congestion around our schools has become, he said.

Its a bit of a domino effect. The more kids who walk or bike, the fewer cars there will be trying to get in and out of schools and the safer the roads become for pedestrians and cyclists.

Each school will be communicating with parents and students to explain the plan for the activity. The active transportation com-mittee anticipates this will be just the first of many Walk n Wheel days and plans to approach other local schools in the fall.

All student participants will receive a rib-bon for choosing a healthier way of getting to school.

Students set to walk, wheel to school

n his quiet way, Malcolm Gra-ham could light up a room with his smile and had a way of making anyone he spent time with feel special.

Malcolm died at the age of 68 on March 25 at Southlake Regional Health Centre from complications three weeks after suffering a heart attack.

The Grahams came to Newmar-ket in 1973, shortly after Malcolm graduated from Western Univer-sity and a chartered accountant apprentice program with Pricewa-terhouse in Toronto.

They moved to town when Malcolm was offered a job with accounting firm Cossar, Hector and Payne on Main Street.

They did have a tie to New-market since his wife Mary Beths parents, Gordon and Helen Ough, were born and raised in town and her grandfather, Jack Nesbitt, had been the mayor in the mid-1920s and again in the early 1930s.

Malcolm and Mary Beth met in Blenheim District High School near Chatham when he was in Grade 11 and she was in Grade 9.

It was love at first sight.We met in high school and

dated and that was it, Mary Beth laughed.

He was very handsome, a fabulous smile, very athletic, just a nice guy. I dont think youd find

Malcolm Graham was quiet family man

I

anybody that would say anything negative about Malcolm. He was one of those people, very giving in a quiet way, but always had time for people. Didnt matter if it was business-wise or friends or neigh-bours. Just in a quiet way, he would be there.

They married on Oct. 29, 1966 while Malcolm was still at Western.

The couple, parents of sons John and Jeff, would have celebrat-ed their 50th anniversary this fall.

When they first moved to New-market, Malcolm got involved with the Lions Club.

In 1975, he and some friends founded the York North Racquet Club, a squash club that raised the hackles of some for its mens

Vale, Colorado every December.Despite the pressure of work,

from which he never retired, Mal-colm loved spending time with family and friends at the cottage they have had in southwestern Ontario since 1977.

That was a big point for all of our family. It was always a very special place for everybody, Mary Beth said.

The whole family, including John and his wife, Connie, and their children, Mackenzie, Ireland, Conner and Liam, and Jeff and his wife, Susan, and their children, Georgia and Jack, loved spending time at the cottage.

Family was huge (to Malcolm). I just think he was very proud of what all of them have achieved, Mary Beth said.

Particularly, for the grandchil-dren, I think (the cottage) is a fun place to be, youre that next gen-eration. He enjoyed them all. He loved having them around, loved having them at the cottage. Lots of boating, lots of swimming, lots of sailing. It was wonderful, really. A lot of family time. Malcolm worked really hard, but we had some real quality family time. Those are good memories.

Sadly, Jeff died six years ago at the age of 40 of a brain tumour after being diagnosed 12 years earlier.

Because of his illness, the fam-ily has been big supporters of the

only policy.There were a lot of women

who were not very happy with that group, not happy at all. It didnt bother me, but there were several others that were not too happy about it, Mary Beth said.

It was a group of guys, there were some professional people and all kinds of great guys. They just decided they needed something (for men).

Initially, Malcolm, who would go on to establish accounting firm Bateman, Graham, Fitzpatrick on Davis Drive, was an avid squash player, but his interest waned as work demands grew.

He also looked forward to an annual ski vacation with friends to

Brain Tumour Foundation of Cana-da, helping to raise about $100,000 over many years.

When Jeff died, his flag football league started a memorial golf tournament in his honour, a ven-ture the family helped support.

Initially, proceeds from the tournament went to the brain foundation. For the last three years, it has raised about $200,000 for the hospice at Southlake Regional Health Centre.

Those kinds of things were really important to Malcolm. You wouldnt find him out there being the big cheerleader saying, Hey look at us, what were doing, Mary Beth said.

It was always just in a very quiet way. It was huge for him to be giving back.

Malcolm will be missed by fam-ily, friends, neighbours and clients, Mary Beth said.

He was probably one of the most generous people Ive ever met. Very kind. Always put other people ahead of himself. Even at the office, if people came in with even just the smallest problem, it didnt matter. He would take just as much time with that person as he would with someone with a very complicated problem. Everybody felt he was giving his all, she said.

And he had the most wonder-ful smile. It just made everyone else smile. He could just light up a room with that smile.

Malcolm Graham

Adored by children, universally respected and an inspiration to her peers, Mrs. McCluskey was a tireless volunteer, quick to defl ect the praise heaped on her.
