Fires, fisticuffs and fun in Confederation-era Richmond Hill KIM ZARZOUR kzarzour@yrmg.com Canada’s 150th anniversary is a big deal these days with the federal government pouring half a billion dollars into celebrations, but if you lived in Richmond Hill around the time

of Confederation, chances are the momentous occasion wasn’t even on your radar. You were likely too busy tending the farm, fighting fires, lobbying to have your little community recognized as a village, or partying at the local tavern. By the late 1800s, when the

newly created Dominion of Canada was separating from the United Kingdom, Richmond Hill was just coming into its own and that, for residents of the time, was far more important. The village had been quietly growing since the early 19th century and it was around this time

A BADLY PLANNED WILL A DAD’S GOOD INTENTION GONE BAD The Wills Lawyer Gary told the following story during a call-in show. His father, Percy, made his will at the height of the dot-com stock market surge. Percy’s stock portfolio was worth over five million dollars in the late nineties. He wanted to divide his growing estate among his many friends, his relatives and his two children, of whom Gary was one, and Denise was the other. It was important for Percy’s children to have the lion’s share of the estate, because they were his only children, and particularly because Denise was ill with multiple sclerosis. Just before making his will, Percy consulted with Gary and Denise, explaining that after he passed away, because of the value of his stock Les Kotzer portfolio, they would each be so wealthy that leskotzer.com they would never have money problems. But there were numerous others who really needed financial help, so that his will would contain many smaller gifts of money to those others. Gary, out of serious concerns about the medical and therapeutic needs that would arise over the lifetime of his sister, Denise, asked Percy what he meant by “numerous others”. Percy explained that counting all of his friends and cousins, there were twenty people, and each would get $10,000 dollars. A total of $200,000 dollars didn’t seem like a lot of money out of a total stock portfolio worth five million plus at the time, so Percy had the blessing of Gary and Denise, and the will was finalized along these lines. By the time Percy passed away, Gary had learned three hard lessons. First, he learned that five million dollars’ worth of internet stocks did not translate to five million dollars of currency after a stock market bubble bursts. Second, Gary learned about which gifts in a will get paid out first and which gifts are only paid, if there is money left over after the priority gifts are paid. The sad part of this lesson was that Percy’s friends and relatives got their money gifts first, leaving Denise and himself to split whatever was left after those money gifts were paid out. This followed the wording in Percy’s will which provided that Gary and Denise would split what was left over in Percy’s estate, after the money gifts were paid out to his friends and relatives. Third Gary learned how thankless people can be when he realized that Percy’s net worth after debts and taxes was only $230,000. This meant that, after $200,000 was paid out to Percy’s friends and relatives, Gary and Denise were left with $30,000 to split between them. What was the thankless part? Gary talked himself hoarse, begging Percy’s relatives and friends to give up their gifts so that the money would help Denise deal with her illness. He made a point of telling them that Percy would never have left his sick daughter in such a vulnerable position. Percy wanted to protect her. But not a single one of Percy’s friends or relatives agreed to consider Denise’s needs. Not one of them would give up their $10,000 gift from Percy’s will. Gary said that he and Denise were raised as givers, not takers. Gary gave all of his $15,000 inheritance from Percy’s estate to Denise and more beyond that out of his own money. What he had to give to the radio audience was one piece of advice to anyone making a will. Just because you’re rich today doesn’t mean you will always be rich.

Richmond Hill Public Library (Above) Richmond Hill was a hamlet fighting for official recognition as a village at the time of Canada’s Confederation (Front page photo) Richmond Hill residents seem to have spent a lot of time battling fires in the late 1800s. General merchant Parker Crosby lost this successful store and contents but vowed ‘never again’, re-building a new store out of fire-resistant masonry, and called it The Fireproof.

The village ‘just went boom’ O Continued from front

ness at 10225 Yonge, using fireproof masonry and called it The Fireproof. Coulter, too, rebuilt — using brick this time. Not long after these fires, the local school caught fire, then the stable and barn of the Halfway House Tavern burned to the ground. The string of fires was followed by a concerted effort, over many years, to mount a proper way to contain the blazes until finally, in 1880, a new volunteer firefighter brigade was able to persuade council to buy a fire wagon, second-hand, for $750. Yonge Street was lined with Maand-Pa shops and businesspeople often wore several hats, MacKenzie says. The pharmacist, for example, was also the farrier, shoeing horses in the back of his shop, doling out drugs in the front including his world-renowned elixir — a patented cure-all called “Sanderson’s Infallible Oil.” If you needed a doctor, you likely went to the home — and hospital — of Dr. James Langstaff, located at 107 Hall St. Folks got around by horse and wagon

and most industry — the sawmill, a foundry, wagon works and distillery — relied on power generated by the Mill Pond. That may be why most of the settlement was on the west side of Yonge. Homes on the east didn’t sprout up until the rose-growing industry sprouted in the early 1900s. Travelers heading north on Yonge Street during the late 19th century would recognize Richmond Hill from the spires of its four churches and for a long time, Sundays and church time were the only day of rest. But as the village grew, so did leisure time. Every year, on May 24, everyone flocked to the spring fair behind the old stagecoach stop hotel (southwest corner of Yonge and Arnold Crescent, later moved to town park near the current Elgin Barrow arena) to see tightrope walkers, horse races and if you were a new immigrant — which many people were — to make friends and learn how to farm in this new country. “With everyone so close knit during those days,” MacKenzie says, “it must have been a blast living here.”

yorkregion.com

was a non-event for local residents; more concerned, they were, about the fight to get their village incorporated and to put out the never-ending fires that seemed to be burning buildings down as quickly as they were built. For years, the hamlet of Richmond Hill had been split between Vaughan and Markham townships with Yonge Street as the dividing line. This caused some organizational problems and in the years leading up to Confederation, folks focused on fixing that by incorporating the village — finally succeeding in 1873. That occasion, more than Confederation, was the big deal for Richmond Hill and in the years that followed, the village “just went boom,” MacKenzie says. Yonge Street, still a dirt road, gas lamps lit each night by lamplighters, became the centre of commerce and “party central.” “People liked to come here to get drunk. Farmers from Holland Landing would bring their crops to the St. Lawrence market and they’d reach Rich-

mond Hill by nightfall. They’d rent a room for the night and have some fun.” MacKenzie says. All that whiskey-infused carousing led, in 1876, to construction of a new Temperance Hall on Centre Street — a place for prohibitionists to meet and chastise drunks, the walls painted pink, green, red and blue to keep them awake during long lectures. Along with the wayfaring strangers and fisticuffs, were fires — plenty of them. The mill industry was partly to blame; most homes were built out of wood. Moses Ransom, the local barber, was in charge of the fire bell and if you spotted flames, you ran to him to spread the news. Parker Crosby was one of the unfortunate locals whose dry goods store at Yonge and Richmond was destroyed by fire. It was a Sunday morning in the spring of 1866 and his store, along with Coulter’s tailor shop and Waterhouses’s General Store, burned to the ground. A few other houses were also destroyed. Undaunted, Crosby rebuilt his busi-

There is no place for intolerance in our society

TheLiberal.

A dashcam video depicting an unidentified male berating an elderly man on Old Kennedy Road, just north of Steeles Avenue East, in Markham surfaced earlier this month and its contents are disturbing to say the least. The video, shot by Markham’s Tony Cao and posted to YouTube, shows an older man, who walks with a heavy limp, moving across the frame when a younger man, dressed all in black, appears from behind him and inexplicably begins to taunt him and repeatedly refers to him as "monkey". When the younger man notices Cao, he angrily approaches his vehicle and shouts racist things at him. The footage came to light less than two weeks after a woman in a Toronto grocery store was filmed demanding that employees who didn’t speak English "go back to China" and the same week a Statistics Canada report emerged showing that the number of hate crimes in Canada rose by five per cent between 2014 and 2015 with the number of incidents targeting Muslims increasing by 60 per cent. Statistics Canada noted that its figures were based around police-reported hate crimes, so the numbers could be even higher as not all incidents are reported to law enforcement agencies. Cao did report what he saw and has turned his video over to York Regional Police who are now investigating. He went on to say that he’d never experienced a racist incident of any kind during the 10 years has called Canada home. "I’m truly shocked, I’m just sad to see this sort of thing in society in this beautiful, peaceful country," Cao told the York Region Media Group in an interview. "I only thought this type of thing would happen in America." It shouldn’t happen anywhere least of all in Canada. Fortunately, the majority of Canadians are appalled at this kind of behavior and it certainly isn’t indicative of who we are as a nation. Still, it’s clear from this video and the statistics there remains plenty of room for improvement and that’s why it’s important for those on the receiving end of racial abuse, or who witness such an incident, to report it to the proper authorities for what it is: a hate crime. Similarly, we should be vigilant for discrimination that targets any group. Simply put, there’s no place for intolerance such as this in our society.

Disputed PC nominations raise questions Re: Ontario PC Nomination results being disputed, June 1. This is a very interesting article, however it needs to be pointed out that there is a quote by PC Candidate Daisy Wai: "it’s not canvassing, it’s deceiving. A lot of people are really angry." This seems to be referring to her opinion of the way another candidate was canvassing and informing or encouraging people to vote yet we received unexpected letters addressed to each of us at our place from Ms Daisy Wai exactly the same and obviously from some sort of list she had.

Preliminary engineering and design work on the 7.4-kilometre extension is set to begin, federal, provincial and regional politicians announced at a news conference at the Richmond Hill transit terminal on June 16. Federal Health Minister and Markham-Stouffville MP Jane Philpott, Ontario Transportation Minister and Vaughan MPP Steven Del Duca and York Region chair Wayne Emmerson announced more than $36 million in federal funding at the event. "This project is the No. 1 rapid transit priority of York Regional council for good reason," Emmerson said. "It will allow us to keep up with the tremendous growth we are experiencing, it will virtually eliminate the 2,500 daily bus trips now required to service this section of Yonge Street and it will be the catalyst for job creation and the development of more affordable housing options." The federal funding is in addition to about $55 million from the provincial government to continue design work on the project.

York Region public transit riders will have to get on board with a number of changes coming to YRT/Viva as of Canada Day. The changes will cover the twozone fare structure, paper tickets and passes and fare increases, general manager Ann-Marie Carroll, said. At least one long-time rider is concerned about the adjustments. Vijay Sandrasagra, a language interpreter and security officer from Richmond Hill who uses several GTA transit systems, is worried they could create a hardship for seniors and lower-income residents and cost riders more in the long run. The region is scrapping its two zones, meaning riders travelling north of Bloomington Sideroad will no longer have to pay an extra $1. While fares based on distance will likely be brought in across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area in time, it makes sense to do get rid of the two zones in York now, Carroll said. "The only zone that we had was in the north-south direction. We don’t have zones in the east-west direction. So, it makes it consistent across the region," she said.

Riders will continue to be able to travel on one fare for two hours. But Sandrasagra believes YRT/ Viva will eventually find a way to

Rainbows were running rampant down Main Street in Newmarket the morning of June 17 for the 2017 York Region Pride Parade. It was the first time the parade was held in the town after several years in Richmond Hill, and by most accounts, it was a roaring success. "This is just phenomenal," said Michelle Gouffray. "Newmarket really stepped up to the plate of inclusivity." The town’s Main Street was shut down for the Saturday morning event that culminated in a concert with a family-friendly party at Riverwalk Commons. The local farmers market and artisan fair drew even more crowds, making the village core a happening place on a sultry day. Kevin Dupuis, a pharmacist at the Main Street Robins IDA, happily donned a rainbow tie and decorated his storefront as part of the celebrations. Several pharmacy staff – on-duty and off – joined him to cheer the parade. "Vendors have really embraced the whole idea," he said. "It’s fun, it brings a lot of people out and everyone’s in a good mood." Several restaurants created festive offerings for the day, from rainbow hamburgers at Cachet restaurant to a colourful cheesecake confection at Hungry Brew Hops. Francine Collins said she moved to Newmarket recently and was thrilled to hear the parade would be a few blocks away. "It’s fantastic," she said. "Newmarket is such a diverse community and this pulls everyone together. I imagine some people’s nose will be out of joint, but hopefully they’re in the minority." Vanessa H., 23, said she has just come out as gay and appreciated a chance to celebrate in a safe place. The Holland Landing resident said it isn’t always easy to be different in a small town and events such as this let young people know they don’t have to feel alone. Unlike Toronto, police were a big part of the Newmarket event, representing York Region, Simcoe South, Peel, Durham, RCMP and OPP. They were greeted with cheers and applause as they made their way down the street. "York Regional Police has been amazing; they’ve been with us 110 per cent," said parade organizer Jacob Gal, adding it’s very different here compared to Toronto, with its longer history of "intense and complex" interactions. The parade took place in previous years in downtown Richmond Hill, but switched locations this year after issues arose over the closing of Yonge Street. Gouffray said she volunteered with the parade when it was based in Richmond Hill, and it was a struggle. "We had a hard time getting traction and acceptance, but I look at this turnout today and it just warms my heart." It helps that Main Street is not a major thoroughfare, Gal said, and that the Newmarket BIA is well established. "It makes a huge difference when the community works together, the municipality and the community, rather than when it’s just left to the organizers, but Richmond Hill has always been good to us."

Lyme battle gets boost KIM ZARZOUR kzarzour@yrmg.com

Community Environmental Centre

ENHANCEMENTS COMING SOON! To serve you better, York Region will be constructing new features: • Household Hazardous Waste Drop-off Facilities The addition of household hazardous waste facilities will create a one-stop waste depot for York Region residents. • Weigh Scales and Weight-Based Fees Once construction is complete, weight-based fees of $100 per metric tonne (equivalent to $0.10/kilogram) will be introduced for garbage, mixed loads (garbage and recyclables), and high cost recyclables (wood, rubble, concrete and drywall.) A $10 minimum fee per load will apply.

The battle against Lyme disease got a boost this month with a donation of $1.4 million from the G. Magnotta Foundation. The funds pave the way for Canada’s first research facility to improve Lyme testing and treatment and will be directed, over three years, to the University of Guelph’s department of molecular and cellular biology. It’s a dream launched in 2012 by Rosanna Magnotta of Vaughan, after her husband, Gabe, died from complications of the disease. Founders of Ontario’s third largest winery, the Magnottas spent the last seven years of Gabe’s life battling misdiagnosis and mistreatment. "There was nowhere for us to go in Canada that could understand and help us," Rosanna said.

"Lyme disease is increasingly recognized as a substantial threat across the country, and there is a profound need for high quality science that can improve the lives of afflicted Canadians," Wills said.

She created a foundation in her husband’s memory and was inundated with similar stories of Canadians suffering with Lyme. Lyme disease is most commonly transmitted through the bite of infected ticks. If caught early, it can be treated with a course of antibiotics, but if untreated, the disease can lead to chronic and devastating

Metrolinx, an agency of the Province of Ontario, is upgrading its commuter rail system into Regional Express Rail. The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) is now home to nearly 7 million people and heading towards 10 million by 2041. To address the urgent transit needs of the GTHA, the Province of Ontario committed to implement Regional Express Rail and make other improvements to the GO system. By 2025, electrified trains will be running every 15 minutes or better, all day and in both directions, within the most heavily travelled sections of the GO network. The Process

Notice of Commencement and Public Meetings GO Rail Network Electriﬁcation Transit Project Assessment Process

Metrolinx and Hydro One are co-proponents, jointly carrying out the Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP) in accordance with Ontario Regulation 231/08 - Transit Projects and Metrolinx Undertakings (made under the Environmental Assessment Act) to examine the environmental impacts of converting several GO rail corridors from diesel to electric propulsion. The Project As part of Regional Express Rail, Metrolinx is proposing to electrify GO-owned corridors. The GO Rail Network Electrification undertaking will entail design and implementation of a traction power supply system and power distribution components located along and within the vicinity of the rail corridors. The Study Area (see key map) includes six GO rail corridors, as well as proposed locations for the traction power facilities (i.e., Traction Power Substations, Paralleling Stations, Switching Stations) and ancillary components: • • • • • •

Union Station Rail Corridor Lakeshore West Corridor – West of Bathurst St. to Burlington Kitchener Corridor – UP Express Spur (at Highway 427) to Bramalea Barrie Corridor – Parkdale Junction to Allandale GO Station Stouffville Corridor – Scarborough Junction to Lincolnville GO Station Lakeshore East Corridor – Don River Layover to Oshawa GO Station

Traction Power Supply and Distribution System Electrification of the GO Network requires a connection to the provincial electrical system. It is proposed that power be supplied from Hydro One’s existing 230 kilovolt (kV) transmission lines through the installation of five (5) Tap locations which will bring power to the Traction Power Substations (TPS) and then feed into the power distribution system components adjacent to and along the rail corridors to be electrified. Consultation Building on the first and second rounds of public consultation meetings held in February/March 2016 and November 2016, Metrolinx and Hydro One are now formally commencing the TPAP. A third round of public consultation is planned for June/July 2017 (details below) and will present the findings of the technical/environmental studies (posted online at www.gotransit. com/electrification) undertaken for the GO Rail Network Electrification Project. Members of the public, government agencies, Indigenous communities and other interested parties are encouraged to participate in the process and/or contact the project team directly with feedback or questions. A discussion guide will be posted online at www.gotransit.com/electrification prior to the meetings to provide key information. We invite you to join us in person at the public meeting nearest you to find out more. Meeting times: 6:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. / Presentation: 7:00 p.m. Monday, June 26, 2017 Clarke Memorial Hall 161 Lakeshore Road West Mississauga, ON L5H 1G3

Maple Leaf Flag — the identity and pride of Canadians NOUMAN KHALIL nkhalil@metroland.com Every day, millions of Canadians feel so proud to see the Maple Leaf flag flying high in the air. Canadians attained this flag on Feb. 15, 1965 after decades of debate in and outside the Parliament. That date, the day when Maple Leaf flag was officially raised on Parliament Hill, is now celebrated annually as the National Flag of Canada Day or Flag Day. In fact, every weekday before 9 a.m., the flag is replaced on top of the Peace Tower at Parliament Hill and the previous one is presented to a Canadian. Every citizen can obtain this 2.3-by-4.6-metre flag from the Peace Tower, but there is a wait list of about 50 years. Earlier, until 1965, the Royal Union Jack was the only other official national flag of Canada, while the Canadian Red Ensign was the unofficial flag. Bearing the Union Jack and the shield of the Royal Arms of Canada, the Red Ensign was never officially adopted as a national flag. However, the search for a new flag began in 1925 when Prime Minister Wil-

liam Lyon Mackenzie King’s government started work for possible new flag patterns. But the government immediately withdrew when there was a general uproar against any attack on the Union Jack. King tried again in 1945 with a joint committee of the Senate and House of Commons, but support for the Union Jack remained strong and many Canadians had so much emotional attachment to the Red Ensign and the Union Jack. Finally, in 1964, Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson took up the issue and informed the House of Commons that the government wished to adopt a distinctive national flag. Following Pearson’s directions, submissions for new patterns were once again called. As a result, more than 5,000 designs were submitted. Among them, George Stanley’s Maple Leaf or l’Unifolie, which means ‘the one-leafed’ in French, was approved. Stanley was a Canadian historian, author, soldier, teacher, public servant, and more importantly the designer of the Maple Leaf flag, the identity and pride of Canadians all over the world.

Fallen York cop’s son dies in motorcycle crash

JEREMY GRIMALDI jgrimaldi@yrmg.com

Another tragedy has befallen the Plunkett family after fallen York Regional Police Const. Rob Plunkett’s son, Jeff, died following a Springwater crash June 16. Const. Plunkett was crushed by a car and dragged during a traffic stop in 2007, during which he was investigating air-bag thefts. Nadeem Jiwa was convicted in the death. Const. Plunkett continues to be remembered via the Rob Plunkett Memorial Baseball Tournament, put on by his good friend and current York police Insp. Lou Malbeuf, and the annual Special Olympics Torch Run bearing his name. In the June 16 incident, OPP say Jeff, from Barrie, was driving his motorcycle near the area of Hwy. 26 and Anne Street North in Springwater when it collided with another vehicle, claiming Jeff’s life. There was an outpouring of grief on social media in the aftermath, with friends and family posting pictures of the 26-yearold who, like his father, was a natural athlete, particularly gifted at basketball. An account with the name Corey Dennis wrote a special tribute to Jeff on his Facebook account. "It never seems real, to hear that such an amazing person has been taken from us, Jeff Plunkett you are one of the most happy go Lucky, loyal, and stand up guys I have ever had the pleasure of knowing," he wrote. "You had a rare ability to light up any room and definitely could always put a smile on my face when I was down. My heart goes out to your family and may you rest in peace Jeff ! It’s never good bye, just so long for now friend, until we meet again!" Jeff’s visitation will be held at Adams Funeral Home in Barrie on June 21 from 6 to 9 p.m. The funeral will occur in Adams’ chapel at 11 a.m. on June 22. .

HAPPY VALLEY TRACT, KING This tract is on the 7th concession, King. This is a great spot, but hard to find, Reese said. You need to access it from north of the property. Come from the Pottageville side or 7th concession. A creek runs through part of the property. PEFFERLAW TRACT, GEORGINA It has a Pefferlaw Brook. Parking spots are at the end of Forestry Drive. This runs south of Old Homestead Road. Some people like going across to Pefferlaw Brook for fishing. – Go to York.ca/trails for information and map.

Quebec referendum of 1995 decided by razor-thin margin for Canada The 1995 Quebec referendum was decided by the slimmest of margins as Quebeckers voted 50.58 per cent to 49.42 per cent to remain in Canada. Turnout in the Oct. 30 vote was 93.52 per cent, the largest ever in the province, and was surprisingly close after the “No” vote rejecting sovereignty and remaining in Canada was strong at the outset of the campaign. But led by a strong push by Lucien Bouchard, the “Yes” side, supporting independence and sovereignty, gathered momentum in the final weeks and made the outcome razor thin.

There’s something wrong at the LCBO.

yorkregion.com

HAS A SIX-FIGURE SALARY AND A FULL-TIME JOB, BUT MAKES OVER 84% OF HIS LCBO RETAIL EMPLOYEES WORK PART-TIME.

Over 84% of the people who work at your LCBO store have no choice but part-time. Shifts can be as short as two hours. Some of them work every day for weeks in a row just to get enough hours to scrape by. And even if they’ve worked for the LCBO for 10 or 15 years, they’re no closer to getting a full-time position. That’s not right. A successful Crown corporation like the LCBO should be setting an example for Ontario. And if Mr. Soleas can’t do it, let’s get someone who can.

GET THE REAL STORY OF WHAT’S HAPPENING AT THE LCBO

George Soleas, LCBO President & CEO A paid advertisement by OPSEU. The opinions stated in this advertisement are those of the sponsoring organization.

CRIME

A driver who hit another vehicle in a drive-thru and then struck a pedestrian in Richmond Hill was one of 24 York Region drivers charged with impaired driving last week. Twenty-two drivers were charged with being

impaired by alcohol and two were charged with being impaired by drugs. One driver was a woman, the other 23 were men. Eight arrests arose from calls from citizens, four were charged after colli-

sions and 12 drivers were charged after RIDE spot checks or officers on general patrol. Another 144 drivers were charged with distracted driving earning a $490 fine and three demerit points.

"They are asking me if she’s OK; if she’s going to be OK, so I’ve been using the opportunity to have a lot of conversations ensuring they know our address and how to dial 911," she said. "We’ve been meaning to teach them this for a while, but it’s hard to know when’s the right time." Other neighbours who wouldn’t divulge their names said the community is devastated and they have never seen this sort of incident in the area, despite many homes having pools. Neighbours said the family has lived in the neighbourhood for about two years.

ard. "She didn’t appear to be conscious." Police say the four-yearold girl, who Leonard saw wearing a bathing suit amid the emergency scene, called 911 to report the incident. Although unaware exactly what transpired in the lead up to the incident, a police source described what appears to be a terrible accident. According to the officer, the woman and the girl were either playing in or near the pool in the lead up

"I know the babysitter because I see her when she picks up the girl, maybe two times a week after school for the past few months." Asked how she feels, Leonard said she’s having a difficult time with the incident. "I don’t know how to describe it," she said. "I have had her in my thoughts and prayers all weekend. I just hope she’s OK. I just don’t know how she ended up in the pool." Leonard added since the incident, she has been fielding difficult questions from her own children.

The glorious summertime feeling on Arnold Crescent the morning of June 19 gave no hint of the chaos that visited the quiet suburban street after 5 p.m. June 16. It was then that emergency crews of all stripes congregated on the street, as neighbours desperately tried to figure out exactly what was going on behind the fire and paramedic

trucks that blocked the house. When a stretcher finally came out of the house, one neighbour said the patient a 20-year-old woman who was babysitting a four-yearold girl at the girl’s family home - didn’t appear to be conscious. Three days later, York Region police say the woman remains in lifethreatening condition, still hooked up to life support. "They were working on her for quite a while," said neighbour Melissa Leon-

to 5 p.m. when the fouryear-old went inside the house to retrieve her toys. When she came back out to the poolside, she says her babysitter was drowning in the deep end of the pool. The source indicated the babysitter did not know how to swim. Leonard, a mother-ofthree who lives directly across the street, said her daughter and the fouryear-old both attend Prince Charles Public School and take the bus together. "Well she’s obviously a very smart little girl," she said. "What she did is amazing.
