5 Metroland Reports: SIU

SIU SHROUDED IN SECRECY Less than half of investigations into York police-involved deaths, injuries made public

"THEY WON’T TELL ME WHICH OFFICER SHOT ME’ PAM DOUGLAS pdouglas@thebrampton guardian.com

LOUIE ROSELLA lrosella@mississauga.net

he province’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) launched investigations into 13 police-involved deaths and injuries in York Region last year but you only heard about six of them. That’s because the SIU doesn’t have enough staff to issue news releases for every investigation, according to SIU spokesperson Jason Gennaro. "Each year the SIU starts hundreds of investigations all across the province," Gennaro wrote in an email to Metroland Media. "The unit has limited resources and does not have the ability to issue an initial news release and to provide details in every case it begins." The SIU isn’t required by law to report to the public. It does so as a matter of policy. That’s one thing Justice Michael Tulloch, in his Independent Police Oversight Review report, has said must change. "The SIU must be more open, candid and communicative than it is now," Tulloch concluded in the lengthy report released this past April that included 129 recommendations for improvements to the current system of police oversight in Ontario. He quoted the Police Services Act, which states only that the SIU must re-

The province’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) launched investigations into 13 police-involved deaths and injuries in York Region last year - but you only heard about six of them. port to the Attorney General. Since the release of Tulloch’s report, the Attorney General has committed to releasing all reports publicly, online. That decision will give the public access to information about all SIU investigations in which charges are not laid, but only after the case has been closed. Tulloch recommended the law require the SIU report to the public on every investigation, and he even set out guidelines for how often the unit should update the progress being made on ongoing investigations - after 120 days, and then every 60 days thereafter. Gennaro has said the SIU is committed to issuing news releases in all death cases, shootings, and for "major" vehicle collisions

involving police, which has meant few details released in the majority of SIU-involved cases. Under that policy, news releases are issued by the SIU only 25 per cent of the time, or for one out of every four investigations it conducts, Tulloch’s review found. The SIU handles hundreds of cases each year. Last year, it opened 327 investigations. Tulloch emphasized the correlation between accountability and public trust in the SIU and the amount of information the unit shares with the public. In 2014/15, the SIU spent 4 per cent of its total expenditures on "communications, outreach and affected persons," or $352,584 out of approximately $8.2 million. "Public accountability

is vital to the SIU’s success. Yet the SIU currently has only one person responsible for public communications," Tulloch concluded. Approximately 80 per cent of expenditures were spent on investigations and identification services. "This disparity between the two functions should be addressed," Tulloch concluded, calling for more resources to fulfill its public accountability function. Since the release of Tulloch’s report, the Attorney General’s office has begun releasing the reports the SIU submits and a spokesperson for the Attorney General said that, going forward, all reports will be released to the public. That means the public will be notified of all SIU investigations, after they are completed.

Suzan Zreik spent a good part of her day learning about ballistics evidence and the science of guns. Later that evening, the woman had a bullet lodged in her back, fired by a Peel Regional Police officer. She knew instantly she had been shot. "It was a very hot, burning sensation. There’s nothing else that would’ve flown that quickly through my body," she said. Zreik, 24, was a police foundations student at Humber College when she was accidentally shot March 20, 2015 in her kitchen. The gunfire erupted as officers responded to a disturbance and were trying to fend off a man armed with a knife. Zreik spent the night in hospital and waited six weeks for doctors to remove the bullet. The SIU investigation that followed determined the incident, which also saw the armed man, Marc Ekamba-Boekwa, shot dead and two officers wounded, was "legally justified." The SIU said Zreik was in the "wrong place at the wrong time," a statement that angers her to this day. "I was in my kitchen minding my own business," she said. "These officers were firing wildly into a residential area with children." She is frustrated with the SIU refusing to tell her, or the public, which police officer shot her - and is hoping to find out in court as part of a $21-million civil lawsuit against Peel police. The SIU cannot release the name because it is prohibited by the Freedom of Information and

Protection of Privacy Act, spokesperson Jason Gennaro said. Zreik accuses the SIU of being biased toward police because so many of the investigators are former police officers. Metroland has learned through Freedom of Information documents that of the 60 investigators with the SIU, 34 are "former/retired police officers." In his report focusing on recommendations to improve transparency and accountability at the SIU, Justice Michael Tulloch agreed that having former police officers on staff poses a challenge. "Nobody doubts their ability to investigate. Yet many question whether they are biased in favour of police officers," he wrote. However, Tulloch recommended officers continue to be hired because of their knowledge of police training, education and experience. But he also recommended the SIU try to do more to attract and develop quality investigators who do not have a background in policing.

ABOUT US

Municipal co-operation should be encouraged Municipalities don’t often play well with others when it comes to attracting sought-after employers or highprofile events. After all, the competition to host a major tournament or bring a big-name corporation to town is generally fierce and to the victor goes the lion’s share of the spoils - among them tourism dollars, in the case of a sporting event, and more business tax revenue with a new employer - not to mention political bonus points and bragging rights. That’s why it was encouraging to see the municipalities in the GTA join forces after tech giant Amazon recently announced its intention to establish a second North American headquarters. Rather than trying to self-promote to the detriment of their neighbouring communities, the mayors of Toronto, Mississauga and Brampton, along with the regional chairs of York, Durham and Halton, have teamed up to present a single regional bid in the hope Amazon will set up shop somewhere in the GTA. The municipalities involved are all members of Toronto Global, an arms-length, not-for-profit corporation established earlier this year, whose mandate is to work with municipalities, the province and the federal government to market and promote the area to potential foreign investors. "The Toronto Region is ready for Amazon. The company already has a strong presence in the area, with more than two million square feet of operational footprint across the Toronto Region," the mayors and regional chairs said in a joint statement issued by Toronto Global. "With ready access to major markets, a compelling cost structure, and sophisticated U.S. and international connectivity, there has never been a better time for Amazon to choose the Toronto Region." Amazon has said that it will spend in excess of $5 billion to build the second headquarters, and it is expected to create somewhere in the neighbourhood of 50,000 good-paying jobs. If any GTA municipality were selected to play host to the facility, it would provide enormous spinoff benefits for the entire region and no doubt create tremendous employment opportunities for residents in all of the aforementioned communities and beyond. Not surprisingly, the GTA isn’t alone in its plans to lure Amazon. Vancouver is preparing its case, as are a number of cities in the United States. Regardless, even if the bid to bring Amazon’s second headquarters to the area proves ultimately fruitless, the co-operation displayed between municipalities and local leaders should be seen as a win. Teamwork can only prove beneficial in future campaigns to attract employers or major events to the GTA and ought to be encouraged.

Tree protection bylaws should be applied fairly Sometime ago, a Markham resident was taken to court by city authorities for cutting down two or three mature trees on her property. She was expected to be fined for thousands of dollars for doing so. Now, we have a developer who is building a condo complex on Old Kennedy Road. There can be no doubt that dozens of mature trees will be sacrificed for the project. I am wondering what action, if any, has the City of Markham taken to protect some, if not all, of the mature trees on this track of land? It would seem rather

ark came to rest on one of the peaks of Ararat after five months or 150 days. Thus, Noah chronicled events on the basis of the adjusted lunar year of 30 days per month. From the second month of Gen. 7:11 to the same day of the seventh month was 150 days. After that, the waters slowly decreased, but as Genesis 8:13 and 14 show, it wasn’t until the 27th day of the second month of the year after the flood had begun that they were able to come out of the ark (bringing his compost with him). However, it wasn’t his composting that kept him

alive, but his obedience to specific instructions. Jesus compared this historical event to the last days of this age before he would destroy the nations for their corrupt conduct. In Luke, chapter 17, we see him comparing the days of Noah and those of Lot to this time, when people would be too busy with everyday pursuits to carry out the specific assignment and instructions he had given us. We would be busy marrying, building, planting (and composting), and taking no note of God’s will, and then suffer the consequences. Lila Duncan has excellent intentions, but composting by itself, while yielding sumptuous mustard plants, won’t cut the proverbial mustard. Thorsten Laue

TIM KELLY tkelly@yrmg.com Here’s simple advice in case of fire: Get out and stay out. That’s as straightforward as it gets from the very top of the Markham Fire Department as Chief Dave Decker makes clear. "We know people will tend to try and go back in because the pet’s in there, because there are maybe some belongings in there that they want to retrieve but the fact is fire moves so quickly and is toxic. "If you go back in, your chance of survival is very low," said Decker. The chief urges, in the strongest possible terms, anybody who even senses fire to get out of the building and stay out of the building. "Fire isn’t the same as what it was 20 years ago with the plastics and chemicals. Everything is far more toxic than it ever was in the past. It’s more dangerous for us and we’re equipped. Can you imagine a person going back in?" Decker said "it’s just not reasonable," to go back into a home or building. "Once it’s going, it’s a problem. In the newer homes, for us, they’re far hotter, they’re far more toxic, if somebody’s going into that home, fire doubles every two minutes," he said. "When we pull up, that first officer, his first key task is to find out is anybody in there? If there is nobody on the front lawn, we assume somebody’s in there," said Decker. The chief credits fire-prevention education throughout Markham schools from grades 1-6 with helping prevent fatalities in the city over the years. And he also says the mandatory use of smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors is an essential fire safety tool. "You have to have a smoke detector on every level of the home and a carbon-monoxide detector outside every sleeping area," Decker said. The best way to handle the need for both devices is probably to use a combination of the pair. You can purchase smoke/carbon-monoxide detectors that are good for 10 years. "This is going to save your life in three minutes," Decker said pointing to a detector.

Roasting a chicken is one of my go-to Sunday meals. You get an ample serving of lean protein and lots of leftovers for soups, sandwiches, etc. to start your week. We normally get a handful of these Mennonite-raised chickens on Thursdays and they’re usually quick to go, so I rarely get to enjoy them, but last Sunday I was in luck. Calling these ‘chickens’ sounds like a bit of a misnomer…these beauties are halfway to turkey in size at least, in fact mine was just a shade under 8 lbs.

Donna Hugh-Yeun and her twin sister, Deena, have teamed up to present a show where the audience sings, accompanied by a live band (group style karaoke). Their first show is in Richmond Hill Sept. 22 and is a celebration of Canadian artists in honour of Canada’s 150th Birthday. The sisters, who are in their mid-50s, love going to shows and singing, but have noticed this singing is not always appreciated. The upcoming show will include a four-piece band, made up of two vocalists, a host and hostess. The host and hostess will guide the audience’s singing.

TURKEY Round The Bend Farm, in King, sells locally-raised turkeys and has plenty of fresh mid-sized birds available. Order immediately if you’re looking for a small or really large bird as quantities are limited. Howard’s Farm in East Gwillimbury also sells locallyraised, free-range whole turkeys but you must order by the end of September.

DUCK If you’re tired of turkey and want to try something different, consider serving a whole roast duck from King Cole Ducks, 15351 Warden Ave. in Stouffville, which sells a range of grain-fed, antibiotic-free products. If you’re new to duck, they also sell readyto-serve duck products too.

VEGETABLES There are loads of places to buy fresh veggies, whether it’s at one of the farmers’ markets between Woodbridge and Georgina or the two dozen farms that sell direct such as Elmgrove Farms, Hulshof Farm, and Trapper Bob Farm. For a thorough list, check out the York Region Farm Fresh Map.

APPLES Ripe local apples are delicious in turkey stuffing and even better baked in a pie. Plan a family outing to pick your own at a local orchard. There are a few to choose from: Applewood Farm & Winery, JC Agri Orchards, Pine Farms Orchard, and Homestead Orchards.

WINE Tour York Region’s vineyards then buy a bottle or two of wine to enjoy with dinner from Holland Marsh Wineries just outside Newmarket, or pick up an icewine to go with dessert at Willow Springs Winery in Stouffville. Fans of fruit wine will want to check out Applewood Farm & Winery.

SIMONE JOSEPH sjoseph@yrmg.com To tackle organized crime and those who lure young people into marijuana use, we need to legalize marijuana. This was one of the messages MP Bill Blair had at a town hall discussion at Cornell Community Centre Sunday. Markham-Stouffville MP Jane Philpott and Markham-Thornhill MP Mary Ng hosted the meeting on the legalization and regulation of cannabis with Blair, parliamentary secretary to the minister of justice and attorney general of Canada. In April 2017, the federal government introduced legislation to legalize and regulate recreational cannabis in Canada by July 2018. If passed, the proposed Cannabis Act would create rules for producing, using and selling cannabis across Canada. Blair pointed out police used to do lots of work in combating illegal gaming. Then, gambling was made legal and today, there is no police service with a full-

Markham -Thornhill MP Mary Ng listens intently during a town hall meeting she hosted Sunday on legalization and regulation of cannabis. time gambling unit, he said. To control the industry, you need to regulate it this was his message. To show the potential impact of regulation, he related the time he had to visit a grow op as part of his police work. "It was dangerous, mould- infested. The cops had to go in HAZMAT (hazardous material) suits. When we went to a regulated one, for all intents and purposes, we were in a medical lab," Blair said. Bill Larkin, a Markham resident and retired teacher, pointed out the importance of education surrounding cannabis use. "We’ve got to get the facts out. Myths overwhelm reality," he said. A man who only identi-

fied himself as Kevin said legalization of marijuana means marijuana will be everywhere whereupon a man in the front row said "marijuana IS everywhere". A Markham father named Charles Jiang asked a simple question: "Why the rush"? Earlier in the talk, Blair pointed out "our current system leaves distribution up to criminals". He also said that people have been killed over the distribution of marijuana: "Cocaine kills. Trafficking marijuana kills". MP Philpott pointed out the government is taking a public health approach to the legalization of marijuana and said that "criminalization is not working".

Paving area has always been part of plan, mayor says l Continued from page 3

For Stiver, paving the tree-shaded, grass-covered farmers market area adjacent to Stiver Mill will have a "detrimental effect on the farmers’ market," which has been held outside every year since 2009 from the end of June to October on Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. It moves inside the mill building where it runs into December. "One of the reasons we’re so successful is because we have a farmers’ market that’s on grass and under trees. Most farmers’

markets are on parking lots and on cement," said Stiver. He’s concerned that paving the area means "tearing out the trees and putting asphalt where the grass now is." To try to oppose the city decision, he’s generated a petition with over 1,000 signatures asking the city not to pave over the area. But Scarpitti said paving the area in question, phase 2 of the Stiver Mill project, has long been in the works. "The whole vision of the site that has always been discussed, and it has gone

through a very public process, is that the parking lot will be redone with a combination of permeable paving and asphalt. We will have the ability to provide more formal parking. "We want it (Stiver Mill) to be used, to have the flexibility of using it for different purposes and for that we also have to provide parking," said Scarpitti. He said he is setting up a meeting with Stiver to discuss the issue, but notes the parking approval, "went through the heritage committee and the Unionville Vision Committee."

NEWS

Adam Burnett smashes Bruce Trail record TIM KELLY tkelly@yrmg.com Terrible shin splints, vicious toe blisters, blinding knee pain: none of it could stop Thornhill’s Adam Burnett. The 44-year-old father of three was so determined to finish his nine-day trek along the Bruce Trail, no physical challenge was too great to overcome. Just a look at the grizzled Burnett at the finish marker in Queenston, his left leg completely wrapped in tape and looking more like a hospital patient than a first-class athlete, tells you what he went through to complete his journey. Let’s just say running the Bruce Trail in under 10 days was an obsession for the ultra-marathoner. Burnett, who really got rolling in distance running in 2008 and has completed more than three 100-mile races in addition to shorties like the Boston Marathon, first got focused on running the 900-km-long Bruce Trail several years ago. He did the famed ’Badwater 135’ which involves running from Badwater Basin to Mt. Whitney in Death Valley, California, in mid-July. Only 99 runners around the world get to compete in the race each year, and Burnett did it in

2016. And then, his entire focus was on the Bruce Trail. He hired a professional trainer, worked out for nine months, running parts of the trail on weekends, got his nutritional needs down to a fine science and readied his support crew. On Sept. 1 at 5:30 a.m., he set out from Tobermory, Ont., on the tip of the Bruce Peninsula. And on Monday, Sept. 11, at 2:44 a.m., he arrived at Queenston, Ont., in Niagara Region, exactly nine days, 21 hours and 14 minutes after he had started and nearly 16 hours faster than the faster person who had completed the trail before him. But what an adventure in between.

"We knew this was going to be tough. We got to about Day 5 and because we had come through some really rocky, rough terrain up north and some really bad weather, my blisters were just so bad," said Burnett. He had a terrible blister on his left pinky toe. He said that, because he was favouring his toe, he was clenching his foot which gave him really bad shin splints which led to a tight knee. "By the end of the fifth day, I could barely walk and couldn’t run at all, so I ended up hiking that day just over 60 kilometres. I told my support crew, "Guys, if we’re not running the next morning within two hours, I’ll pull the plug." But that

night he took an ice bath, cut out the toe box around his left pinky toe to give his foot room to relax and had his leg and knee taped. And he was able to run again the next day. He said the scenery on the run was amazing from the cobblestone beaches and gnarly rocks of the north to the wooded areas and escarpment of the south. But what surprised him most were the people he met along the way. "I was shocked by the amount of strangers who came out to assist and help me and who wanted to run with me. I knew friends and family would come out, but people came from everywhere," he said.

Retiring lifter pulls his weight, bows out in style JOHN CUDMORE jcudmore@yrmg.com Vijay Shetty is going out at the top of his game. He’s taking a few world records in his gym bag, too. The 41-year-old Markham power lifter competed in August at his third and final World Police and Fire Games in Los Angeles, adding two more world records to his collection before announcing his retirement from competitive lifting. Competing at the under-74 kilogram category despite being several kilos below that weight, the 156pound Shetty won the dead lift at 505 pounds and the combined (dead lift and bench press) at a total of 796 pounds. He claimed a silver medal in the bench press at 291 pounds. It was the third time he competed at the games, which are open to firefighters, police, and military from around the world ev-

Shetty, who owns and operates Cornell Fitness in Markham, conceded he was surprised at how well he fared in the field of 26 competitors from around the globe. "For sure. I was going just to see how well I could do," he said. "You show up with no idea how many (competitors) you are up against. It was a lot of hard work and effort but it paid off in the end." With TPS, he currently works out of the Toronto Police College where his duties include physical training of police prospects. "I will miss it but I am content with my accomplishments and how it ended. I’ll never say never, but for now I’ll have to live vicariously through others."

TENNIS

Sleeth set to serve it up for Canada in Budapest event JOHN CUDMORE jcudmore@yrmg.com Denis Shapovalov isn’t the only York Region tennis player enjoying a breakout season. So, too, is Layne Sleeth. The 16-year-old Angus Glen resident has enjoyed a string of victories this season against higherranked opponents to shoot up to 54th spot in the International Tennis Federation junior rankings. The top-ranked under-16 player in Canada won a Grade 2 tournament in France in April and advanced to the final of an event in Repentigny, Que. in August. That result qualified her for the main draw in the U.S. Open junior championships, where she lost in three sets to Colombian Emiliana Arango. Those successes have earned Sleeth a berth on Tennis Canada’s three-player entry for the girls’ junior Fed Cup Championships to be contested in Budapest, Hungary from Sept. 19 to 24. The Canadians finished behind

Layne Sleeth is all focus on this shot during tournament play in Repentigny, Que. earlier this season. the United States in a qualifying tournament in Mexico earlier this year. Canada topped Mexico and Guatemala to advance to the Budapest event. "My goal in 2017 was to win a Grade 2 tournament," said Sleeth, who started the season at 135 in the ITF ratings. "Now, my goal is to win a Grade 1 (tournament) and play in the main draw for all of the junior Grand Slam events in 2018."

It will be the second trip to the Fed Cup event for Sleeth, who trains at Saddlebrook Tennis Academy near Tampa, Fla. In 2016, she was the youngest member of the Canada team as the squad finished fifth. "I train hard and am getting stronger," she said during a rare week spent in her home community. "I compete hard. I have nothing to lose against them."

You are invited to attend the Public Open House being held as part of the proposed collector road crossing of Bruce Creek in the City of Markham (City). When: Monday, September 25, 2017 Time: 5:00 PM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 7:00 PM Where: Markham Civic Centre 101 Town Centre Boulevard, Markham In 2016, Sixteenth Land Holdings Inc., being the landowners of the former York Downs Golf Club property, submitted two draft plan of subdivision applications, as well as proposed Official Plan and Zoning By-Law Amendment applications to the City for review and approval. Those submissions were in accordance with the Planning Act to redevelop the former York Downs Golf Club property for residential, mixed use, and open space uses (see map on reverse). Since the draft plans of subdivision include a proposed collector road crossing of Bruce Creek, the project is subject to the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) as a Schedule C project. As a result, the landowners are integrating the Municipal Class EA requirements as part of the Planning Act applications to avoid duplication, streamline the two planning processes, and ensure improved environmental protection. PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE Interested members of the public are invited to receive information about the project and discuss their comments and/or questions directly with attending Project Team and/or City staff. This event will be drop-in format. This Public Open House is being held immediately prior to the City of Markhamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Unionville Sub-Committee Meeting No. 4 regarding the proposed development applications, which is scheduled to commence at 7:00pm. For information regarding the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sub-Committee meeting, please contact the City Clerk. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON THE PUBLIC OPEN HOUSEâ&#x20AC;Ś Please contact the following Project Team member if you would like to provide comments, request additional information, and/or to be added to our project mailing list: Ian Dobrindt, MCIP, RPP, EP Senior Environmental Planner, GHD Limited T: 289-453- 2014 E-mail: Ian.Dobrindt@ghd.com
