Ordinary day, extraordinary tragedy
Couple killed on Highway 400 remembered as truck drivers await
next court date
By Susan KRASHINSKY,

It was the kind of day that shouldn't have been remarkable at
all, much less tragic.
On a cloudy Saturday, Don
LOURIE got into his car. His wife,
Elsie, was in the passenger's seat. The Scarborough couple set
off along Highway 400 on a pleasure trip to Rama, Ontario
Meanwhile, Gurmail Singh
BRAICH and Ali
BASER steered their dump
trucks onto the same highway - another afternoon on the job.
Before the end of the day, the
LOURIEs would be dead, Mr.
BRAICH
and Mr. BASER would be in custody and three families would have
their lives upended.
At the funeral yesterday, Dan
LOURIE remembered his parents as
high-spirited, generous and full of stories.
"I will never tire of Don and Elsie's wonderful adventures,"
he said.
For 21 years, the
LOURIEs ran Chunky Fries, a chip truck at the
400 Market. When Mr.
LOURIE sold the wagon last year, he had
hoped to have more free time, manager Scott
SAUNDERS said.
"You could always count on Don to be a gentleman. He was a great
man to know," he said.
On Saturday, a dump truck headed south on Highway 400 collided
with the concrete median. The tailgate came off the truck and
flew into the northbound lanes, where it crashed through the
windshield of an oncoming sport utility vehicle.
Elsie LOURIE was killed instantly, and Mr.
LOURIE died shortly
after. They were both 75.
Mr. BRAICH, of Brampton, is charged with dangerous driving causing
death and criminal negligence causing death, while Mr.
BASER,
of Toronto, is charged with dangerous driving.
Defence counsel Rudi
COVRE is representing both of them. He described
them as hardworking family men caught in a tragic situation.
"Three families' lives have been destroyed," he said in an interview
Wednesday.
Neither man had a previous criminal record.
Mr. BRAICH was released Tuesday on $100,000 bail. Mr.
BASER was
granted bail on Wednesday, at $30,000.
Their bail conditions forbid them to drive or even have keys
to a motor vehicle, Crown counsel Harold
DALE said in an interview.
Standing outside the courthouse in Newmarket on Wednesday, Mr.
BASER's
teenage son said the truck-driving job was the best work his
father had found since coming to Canada from Turkey about a decade
ago.
"He's the only one working in the family," said 16-year-old Ali.
"What are we going to do now?"
He stubbed out his cigarette and excused himself. "I got to go
get my dad," he said.
Mr. BRAICH and Mr.
BASER will return to court in May.
