"The pressure to be perfect, it’s too much." Seventeen-year-old James Peek - a funny, popular, athletic young man - confessed to his mom, late one evening 18 years ago, that he was tired of always feeling like he had to strive for perfection. Four months later, the Richmond Hill teen killed himself by suicide. A letter told his close-knit family of the pressure he felt in school, relationships, life. Before he ended his life, he had first completed his homework. What kind of hidden pressure, what kind of inner incessant drive, made him push himself so hard, struggle so unbearably? What stopped him from reaching out for help? These are questions that plague his family and his younger sister, Michelle, in particular. What burdens did he secretly carry, she wonders, and how many more of us, like James, yearn for space to be imperfect, to make mistakes and still feel worthy, to say "I need help" without shame or apology? For 17 years after James’ death, the family held a golf tournament in his memory. At the James Peek Memorial Golf Tournament, James’ parents spoke openly about the pain they were feeling, about the need for mental health, about the need to reach out and help.

Tulloch review would make SIU ’most transparent, accountable’ in the world Metroland asks three former SIU directors to pick and choose the Tulloch recommendations they would most like to see the Ontario Attorney General implement in new legislation due out this fall JEREMY GRIMALDI jgrimaldi@yrmg.com What is the biggest issue with the current Special Investigation Unit model? Is it that cases are taking almost five times as long as they did in 2011? That a Mississauga woman accidentally shot in the back by police while in her home still can’t find out who shot her? That the public is regularly being kept in the dark about SIU investigations? Or that police forces regularly don’t follow rules or don’t report incidents, without punishment including the recent case of a teenager who was beaten up by an off-duty cop and his brother? What is the biggest issue with the current Special Investigation Unit model? Despite the ongoing debate, one thing most can agree on is that the current system is broken and in need of reform. What form that will take is up to Ontario’s Attorney General, who has given little indication so far on which portions of Ontario Court of Appeal Judge Michael Tulloch’s review of the SIU - the provincial police watchdog that investigates when police kill someone, cause injury or are accused of sexual assault - should be instituted. What we do know is the latest public comment has indicated the recommendations are under ’active consideration’ and new legislation involving portions of the report will be ready in the fall. Metroland has interviewed three former SIU directors to find out what they believe are the most pressing issues facing the maligned body.

(From left) André Marin, former SIU director, says he disagrees that naming officers before charges are laid is of public worth; former SIU director Peter Tinsley does not believe the hiring of former police officers to the SIU causes insurmountable bias in the organization; former SIU director Ian Scott says if the Tulloch review is implemented in Ontario it would make the watchdog the most independent in the world. André Marin, director of the SIU between 1996 and 1998, wants the government to start assigning consequences to police departments who fail to report incidents, disobey guidelines or drag their heels when disclosing records. "(That means) jail, fines or both," he said, insisting that police departments, understand, above all, consequences. He said change has already occurred in the face of Tulloch’s review, citing the Durham police chief’s most recent statement indicating the force will advise the SIU of incidents regardless from which force the officers derive something for which his police force was heavily criticized for failing to do in the case of then 19year-old Defonte Miller’s alleged assault at the hands of an off-duty Toronto police officer. "To me this is a sign that change is imminent and it’s al-

ready started," said Marin. "(When you finally) see consequences (for failure to act) you will see a sea change in behaviour." Ian Scott, the director from 2008 to 2013, said one of his top priorities involves a clear and concise definition of serious injury legislated in Ontario to avoid confusion. "I remember arguing with police about that, they all have different ideas about what serious injury is," he said, explaining these differences often result in incidents going unreported, because they don’t necessarily fit with individual police force’s interpretations. He added that Tulloch’s suggestions that SIU investigators add allegations of corruption, fraud and perjury to their remit is one of the most powerful points in the document. Peter Tinsley served as direc-

tor between 1999 and 2002, during a time of great transition following the Adams review of 1998 conducted by former Justice George Adams. Tinsley said independence for the unit should be considered paramount. Legislating a requirement for an annual report to be tabled, which until this past June had not been published in the previous two years, would go a long way in terms of forging the unit’s autonomy. "It’s a hallmark of the independence of the unit," he said. "The director is not an officer of the legislature, but it provides a mechanism for accountability and transparency directly sourced from the unit to the legislature and community." He agreed with Marin that punishment for police forces that don’t co-operate has long been a point of concern, adding that another body should be the ones to

dole out sanctions. "It should be administered by a third party," Tinsley said. None of the three men took issue with some of the SIU’s most hotly debated issues in the media, including the hiring of former police officers as investigators and the naming of subject officers who are never identified by name prior to charges being laid. As long as there is a mix of civilians and former police investigators, any allegations of prejudice can be dealt with by the agency when they come up, said Tinsley. Scott agreed, saying despite claims about the potential for bias, those with experience in criminal investigations are vital. "If charges are laid, (those charges) can go to trial, you need investigators that can withstand the criminal trial process," he said, explaining few can handle the pressure better than former police. As for the question of whether officers should be identified prior to charges being laid, Marin questioned the motivation behind these requests, as long as reports give appropriate "circumstances, findings and details." "What’s in a name," he questioned. "People want to picket outside officer’s homes? It’s not a deal breaker." Although still a mystery what will come out of the Tulloch review, one thing is for sure in Scott’s mind. "If these recommendations are implemented (in their entirety)," he said. "Ontario will have the most independent, transparent and accountable oversight agency not only in Canada, but (likely) all jurisdictions in the world."

ABOUT US

Province should heed Justice Tulloch

TheLiberal.

Ontario’s police watchdog needs more teeth. The Special Investigations Unit is a civilian agency that was established to maintain public confidence in Ontario’s police forces by providing independent investigations into serious injury, death or sexual assault allegation involving police. The unit is intended to provide transparency and accountability. Yet both seem to be lacking, raising questions about the efficacy of the provincial oversight unit. The onus is on individual police forces to notify the unit if there is a serious injury, death or sexual assault allegation. The SIU cannot invoke their mandate until they are contacted by police. It’s a system built on selfreporting. Self-reporting is only effective if there are incentives to co-operate. Currently, if police don’t call in the unit, there are no real consequences. That concern was brought to the fore when neither Durham nor Toronto called SIU after an alleged assault by an off-duty Toronto officer in Durham. It was only months later SIU was notified by the complainant’s lawyer. There can be no accountability if there is no reporting, and there is arguably insufficient motivation to report if there are no real penalties. The SIU becomes little more than a toothless watchdog if it cannot invoke its mandate. Meanwhile, when the unit is called in, the public is only made aware of about a quarter of the investigations. The SIU isn’t required to report to the public and only does so as a matter of policy, citing lack of resources for its dearth of public notifications. It’s difficult to claim transparency and build trust and confidence in policing if information is being withheld, regardless of the rationale. Justice needs to be seen to be done, and police forces must be held publicly accountable if there is to be any faith in the system. To do otherwise is to nullify the express purpose of the provincial unit and sow the seeds of doubt and suspicion. These problems, and many more, are addressed in Justice Michael Tulloch’s review of the SIU. His report includes 129 recommendations to improve police oversight in Ontario. This includes a recommendation the law require the unit to report to the public on every investigation and more precise requirements regarding notifying SIU. Former SIU director Ian Scott says if Tulloch’s recommendations are implemented it would make the Ontario unit the most transparent and accountable in the world. That’s a goal worth striving to achieve. With the recommendations already on the table, we just need the political will to make our system truly accountable, transparent and independent.

• LETTERS & COMMENTARY • OMB ruling on skyscrapers unfair Re: Sky’s the limit, Sept. 14. Once again, the Ontario Municipal Board makes an unfair decision going against our town’s official plan and zoning bylaws, and also dismissing the wishes of people who don’t want 24and 29-storey buildings erected at such an extremely busy intersection. Traffic right now on Yonge Street, going both north and south, is already an enormous mess, and the Ontario Municipal Board’s (OMB) misguided decision will, obviously, make it even worse. What are these "wise folks" at the OMB thinking when they make crass decisions like these? I don’t believe these peo-

ple are elected at all. Who then appoints them for this misguided, authoritarian board? Who are these folks, really? What professions have they? Would developers be part of that board, too? Can they not realize the damage they’re doing to our town and to the quality of life of us all, victims of their misguided decisions which negatively impact and force us to navigate already extremely crowded routes, both going north or south on Yonge Street and adjacent arteries? And now, the OMB, by allowing these two skyscrapers to be built, allows their many occupants to add a lot of more cars to the extremely busy streets of our town. Couldn’t the board anticipate (or care) about the traffic mess these two new tall buildings will add to Richmond Hill’s already insanely congested routes?

Daycare not only option for parents Re: Daycare Dilemma, Aug. 17. I am not sure why so many people assume that children should be in child care while both their parents are in the workforce fulltime. My husband and I have chosen a different option. I was able to stay home with my children while they were infants and toddlers. Grandparents helped with child care when it was needed. Now that our children are all in school, I still choose to work only part-time so I can be home when they come home from school. Although it makes finances challeng-

ing, we feel it is important to have lots of family time. All too soon they will be grown up. I understand that many households are financially unable to choose this option. However, has anyone ever asked them if, given a choice and the financial ability to do so, they would prefer to be at work or at home while their children are growing up? Our government seems to assume every mother wants to work and is sacrificing her career to have children. Perhaps more parents would rather sacrifice their careers, for a time, in order to have the option to raise and care for their children themselves. Does the government even consider that choice?

NAMING A GUARDIAN WHO WILL RAISE YOUR CHILDREN IF TRAGEDY STRIKES? The Wills Lawyer The following story is from the book “Where There’s An Inheritance”, written by Les Kotzer and Barry Fish. Rebecca and Kevin had two children aged six and eight at the time they made their wills. They decided to name Rebecca’s sister, Pamela and her husband, Herb, as guardians of their children. Rebecca and Kevin trusted Pamela and Herb to the ends of the earth. Less than a year after making their wills and appointing Pamela and Herb as their guardians, an accident claimed the lives of both Rebecca and Kevin. The provisions of their wills now meant that Pamela and Herb were to be guardians of the two young Michelle Kotzer children. As devastating as the loss of their parents was for these two children, there was even more bad news in store for them. A few months after the two children had settled in to live with Pamela and Herb, Pamela caught Herb having an extramarital affair. Now a nasty divorce was placing the children of Rebecca and Kevin right in the heat of the battle between their aunt and their uncle. Herb unexpectedly raised the stakes in his negotiations with Pamela by claiming custody of Rebecca and Kevin’s children. The fight was bitter. Pamela and Herb had no children of their own, and Pamela accused Herb of using his young niece and nephew as pawns in his battle to extort a better settlement from her. For months, the children seemed to be at risk of having to move out from their aunt Pamela’s home. Pamela ultimately obtained custody of her niece and nephew, but the divorce was both expensive and stressful. If only Rebecca and Kevin had named Pamela as sole guardian, and had not mentioned Herb, Pamela’s little niece and nephew would have been spared a great deal of the pain and suffering they had to endure. To Pamela, it was clear that, if her sister Rebecca could have seen how Herb had abused her trust, and used her two young children as pawns, she would have been horrified. In my wills practice, I see many couples with young children. The discussion of who to appoint as guardian in case both spouses are killed in an accident, is a difficult one. As I once mentioned in a previous article, I do not know how parents with young children can sleep at night without a will appointing a guardian. The person you appoint as guardian will raise your children until they reach the age of 18. Deciding who to appoint as guardian of your children if you pass away is a difficult task, and you should give great thought as to who you are appointing. As the story above illustrates, if for example, you are appointing your sister as guardian, it may be prudent to only appoint her and not her husband. Alternatively, if you are appointing your brother, the same thinking applies. Moreover, some people name the same person as both executor and guardian in their wills. This combination could lead to a potential conflict of interest. It may be prudent to appoint a different guardian than executor in your will. By separating your guardian from your executor, you are establishing checks and balances within the administration of your estate. It is important to remember that the guardian you have named in your will may not accept his or her appointment as guardian once you have passed away. It is important to tell your proposed guardian of your intention to appoint him or her in your will. You should also consider appointing a back-up guardian in the event your primary guardian does not accept the appointment when you pass away. I am a wills lawyer with the firm of Fish and Associates, 7951 Yonge Street, Thornhill (Yonge and Royal Orchard). We are located in a turn of the century home with plenty of free parking. The atmosphere is relaxed and we speak in plain language. If you wish to make a will appointment please give me a call or send me an email. I would also be pleased to review your existing will for free to make sure that it is not a recipe for a family nightmare. I also offer free will consultations, if you do not have a will and do not know where to start. Michelle can be reached at 905-881-1500 Ext. 22 or mkotzer@fishlaw.ca.

Chats to help YRDSB trustees reconnect with community TERESA LATCHFORD tlatchford@yrmg.com Grab a mug and sit down with your school board trustee. The York Region District School Board is hosting a series of informal coffee chats at local high schools across the region. Parents and the community are invited to meet with the trustee from their area along with board chair Loralea Carruthers to discuss concerns or ask questions. "The intent is to reconnect with the community based on everything that happened last year," Carruthers said. "It will help the community know we are listening and help us get information out." The initiative is part of the school board’s directives handed down by the Ministry of Education following a formal governance review. Each session will allow community members to ask questions, get information and offer opinions or suggestions. Five sessions have been scheduled beginning with Georgina on Sept. 27. More will be posted on the school board’s website once the dates, times and locations are confirmed. These informal sessions will be used as a springboard to set the subject matter at future town halls, a more formal meeting with presentations and specific subject matter, Carruthers added. This

Richmond Hill murals add colour to community A group of painters has made Richmond Hill a little more colourful. LAURA FINNEY lfinney@yrmg.com For Richmond Hill artist Robin Hesse, painting a Bell box for the community murals project has been an "amazing" experience. "It was really almost like a spiritual thing, to be able to create a project that people would stop and talk about," she said. Hesse is one of eight artists painting a Bell box in Richmond Hill. Her mural is located in the area of Harding Boulevard and Major Mackenzie Drive. "We really want to add some life and colour to an otherwise typical street," said Joanne Leung, man-

The eight artists were selected after a call for general submissions. "They were very high quality," said Leung. "To select eight was kind of difficult." This project is part of Canada 150 celebrations, and the murals had to reflect certain priorities. To do that, they had to fit into one of two themes that were inspired by the priorities: Under One Sky, or The Town that Rose. "Both of these have to do with the town’s special history and features," said Leung. Hesse’s mural features the David Dunlap Observatory, something she said is special to her because her artistic subject is the night sky. "To take that theme into a public art project and

Kiefer Sutherland brings country sound to Markham theatre LAURA FINNEY lfinney@yrmg.com For Kiefer Sutherland, writing and performing music can be about finding comfort in shared experiences. "If you write a song about being heartbroken, that song is meant to go out to someone who has had their heart broken and [help them] realize they are not alone," he said. "That you’re going through this thing together." That is something he strives to do during his performances. "In the end, if you can accomplish that, I think there’s a sense of relief that someone who might be going through something is not alone. There’s a comfort in that," he said. "That’s what music has meant to me all my life as a listener and that is something that I would love to be able to do for an audience when we play live." Local audiences will have the opportunity to experience that when Sutherland performs at the Flato Markham Theatre Nov.

VAUGHAN HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE (HHW) DEPOT IS MOVING

Beth Elliott/Photo

Kiefer Sutherland will be playing the Markham Flato Theatre to kick off the the Discovery Gala early in the season. 4 as part of the 2017 Discovery Gala, which raises money for the theatre’s Discovery Program. Sutherland’s first country music album Down in a Hole was released August 2016. He co-wrote every song. As an actor, Sutherland has been helping tell stories on television and in movies, but he said telling his own stories through music is more personal. His Markham performance is part of his Not Enough Whisky tour. Sutherland is not new to York Region - he attended St. Andrew’s College for

two years. "I just always loved that school, I got married at that school, it’s a place that I just hold very dear to my heart," he said. And he added he had a lot of great teachers, including his music teacher. "He had an impact that was massive on my life." The Discovery Program at Markham Flato Theatre allows youth to access the theatre. Students in grades 1 to 3 can enjoy a show for free. There are also special $10 matinee tickets for older students.

When damage occurs in the high-frequency areas of the cochlea (where consonants are heard), speech may sound garbled and comprehension may become difficult. The right hearing aid could help you improve your comprehension.

A Richmond Hill family - including two small children - has been left badly shaken after armed gunmen stormed their home in the middle of the night resulting in a brief police standoff. York Regional Police were called to a residence on Edgar Avenue, near Yonge Street and 16th Avenue, following reports of shots being fired Saturday, Sept. 23 around 5:05 a.m. The homeowner collected his family, including two children aged four and six, and barricaded them in the bathroom, according to York Regional Police. When officers arrived, the suspects were seen inside the home with "firearms and military and police style attire," police added. The two men were ar-

WOW

The brilliant reds, oranges and yellows that make autumn such a great time to get outdoors and explore the region’s forests will really start popping in the next couple of weeks and this year’s colour show is expected to be spectacular given all the rain we saw this summer. Here are five prime spots in York Region to enjoy the fall splendour:

1 2 3

KORTRIGHT CENTRE FOR CONSERVATION The 555-acre park in Vaughan features an expansive trail network through thick, mixed hardwood forest. Sweet spots in fall include Maple Sugar Bush Trail and the Lookout on Forestry Trail, which affords great vistas of the forest and the East Humber River. NOKIIDAA TRAIL SYSTEM This 20-kilometre trail follows the East Holland River from Aurora north up to Holland Landing and passes through several conservation areas - Rogers Reservoir, Sheppard’s Bush and Mabel Davis, among them - dotted with deciduous trees. It links to other community trails, providing plenty of possibilities for fall colour viewing. ROUGE PARK Markham is the northern gateway to this sprawling national park, spanning 5,000-hectares of protected woodland and four municipalities, which is considered by some to be the best place in the GTA to get your fill of fall. Parks Canada offers free, guided walking tours from Oct. 3 to 9.

4

THORNTON BALES CONSERVATION AREANicknamed ’The 99 Steps,’ this 20hectare conservation area in King sits atop the Oak Ridges Moraine and is renowned for its steep slopes and dense forest featuring sugar maple and American beech. The drive along 19th Sideroad is also a treat as it’s lined with towering trees.

5

YORK REGIONAL FOREST The Hollidge and Eldred King tracts off Highway 48 in Whitchurch-Stouffville boast a wide array of deciduous trees with leaves that offer an explosion of colour. A parking lot and an accessible trail make it an easy place to enjoy an outing. – With files from Teresa Latchford

22 WELLNESS

’How beautiful it would be if there were more art and less shame’ l Continued from front

They raised half a million that way and they are proud to have made a difference. But something was bothering Michelle. The pressure to be perfect was everywhere - in mainstream media, on the internet, scrolling through Facebook or Instagram, the steady stream of photoshopped images of happiness, the needy search for "likes." Perfectionism is a silent epidemic, she says. It’s linked to everything from motherhood to masculinity. It leads to silence, disengagement and isolation. It is a component of addiction, depression, anxiety. And it’s time, she says, to let it go. Michelle was 16 at the time of the first James Peek Memorial Golf tournament. Now, 33, she has completed a PhD dissertation about love and belonging and "what it means to exist alongside one another". She has also created a short film, in honour of her brother, called F--- Perfect. "This film is intensely personal for me; shame comes in many forms, and mine happens to stem from a struggle with perfectionism. Perfectionism is also, in some ways, part of what lay claim to my brother’s life. To me, perfectionism is death." Creativity, on the other hand, is life - full of failure and risk and vulnerability, as well as hope, discovery and joy. Michelle says shame is often what stops us from ac-

cessing our creative selves and from reaching out. "It occurred to me, how beautiful it would be if there were more art and less shame in the world? And how might this contribute to mental well-being?" The idea gave birth to a new initiative her family has embraced called Art Not Shame, co-founded with Liz Jackson and Jamie Ashforth. Last year was the 17th year for the golf tournament, several big donors each gave $17,000. James was 17, his hockey number was 17. It’s been a good, long run, the Peek siblings agree, and it has been part of their lives longer than it hasn’t been. Each year James’ parents addressed the crowd, sharing their pain with others in a way that James could not, and in a way that offered comfort to others. As successful as it was, it seemed an appropriate time to wrap it up - and replace it with this new initiative they hope will reach a wider demographic. The first Art Not Shame workshop will be a pilot run through the CMHA-York and South Simcoe and will provide youth with artmaking workshops - vetted and supervised by mental health professionals - in schools and community health programs. Artists-facilitators will lead participants through collaborative art-making and storytelling workshops in a supportive community. Co-founder Liz Jackson, a teacher and researcher,

YOUTH AT RISK Youth are among the highest risk populations for suicide, according to the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA). It accounts for 24 per cent of all deaths among 15- to 24-year-olds in Canada. Suicide is the second leading cause of death (after motor vehicle accidents) for Canadians between the ages of 10 and 24. The CMHA suggests this high risk may be linked to the challenging times of change during adolescence, when youth transition to adulthood and feel pressure to succeed. At the same time, teens may lack the life experience to know that difficult situations will not last forever, and stigma, guilt or shame makes them reluctant to discuss their struggles or seek the help they need. Do you have questions or concerns related to youth suicide you would like us to investigate? Submit your question at yorkregion.com/connect.

Susie Kockerscheidt/Metroland

Phototgrapher and artist Michelle Peek displays some of her photographs. She is launching a new program, Art Not Shame, aimed at helping youth. The program teaches art therapy to kids with mental health challenges. Michelle’s brother James died by suicide 18 years ago. says Art Not Shame will deliver several program streams, including F--- Perfect workshops, an extension of the work Michelle has done with her own short film - as well as story-

telling workshops and a series she is developing exploring shame and vocal expression. "There is tremendous value in investing in art processes versus the end prod-

uct," says co-founder and visual artist Jamie Ashforth. The art-making process itself offers a space of discovery and play without expectation, she says, a space where you can play, take

risks, experience failure that is not in any way attached to self-worth. "What just kills me is that James’ death was like one giant apology for existing," Michelle adds, "like, ’Sorry for being here, sorry for not being good enough.’" Art Not Shame, she hopes, will give permission to others - the permission that James was lacking for himself - to express themselves and celebrate without judgment, to be themselves and to be loved.

What’s trending in smart home technology? Everyday, technology is getting better at saving homeowners time, energy and money. In recent years, appliances of all brands have set their sights on pushing the limits of development and innovation. What used only to exist in futuristic films can now be found in your local Home Depot. Here are a few recent insights into what’s new in appliances.

LG brings state-of-the-art technology to their new door-in-door fridge design, which provides easy access to drinks and snacks without opening the full fridge door. It’s almost like magic — simply knock twice on the glass to illuminate the contents within. Simplified design. As the heart of the home, the kitchen fills an increasing number of functions including cooking, socializing and dining. Designers are finding new ways to embed intelligent technology into countertop surfaces that help keep the space clean and uncluttered. Homeowners now have the option to integrate wireless charging hotspots directly into hard surfaces like Corian countertops, which allows for embedded tech. So, when you get home after a long day at work, simply place your smartphone on the designated counter area and juice up that battery while you get dinner started.

Flexibility. Imagine owning a washer that can run two separate loads at once, or a dryer that lets you dry delicates and everyday garments at the same time. Newly developed technology brings this dream to life, and even include Wi-Fi connectivity so that you can receive alerts, start, stop and monitor cycles remotely. Saving time. Some appliances have smart home capabilities so busy professionals can monitor their kitchens via their phone or laptops. This means you can now purchase high-tech ovens, dishwashers and fridges that are equipped with cameras, allowing you to check on your

roast from the bedroom or draft a shopping list from the supermarket.

Saving money. Have you ever been hungry and indecisive, letting

tion of the farming communities here across the region," said Wheatle. "It’s not just about pumpkin pies, you can get pretty much any harvest-type product." This is the fourth year for the trail, and Wheatle said it has been popular.

York Region transportation services reviews speed limits annually.

| Richmond Hill Liberal | Thursday, September 28, 2017

FOOD

Can resident ask for speed limit review? A reader asked: How can a resident get York Region to review speed limits on regional roads? The answer from Nelson Costa, York Region’s manager of corridor control and safety: York Region transportation services reviews speed limits annually. Speed limits revisions are evaluated using our council-approved speed limit policy, which is based on

what is

principles established by the Transportation Association of Canada (TAC). The policy considers roadway elements and characteristics, roadside environment, number of access driveways, road geometry and pedestrian/cyclist exposure. Application of the policy ensures that speed limits are set consistently across the regional road network. Speed limit revisions are presented to council annually for endorsement. Public requests for a speed limit revision on a particular road section can be sent to traffic@york.ca

There is something special about freshly churned sage butter. "It tastes like stuffing," said Lori Woodyatt, chairperson of East Gwillimbury tourism committee. "It’s really delicious." Sage butter is one of several farm-fresh items people can buy for their Thanksgiving dinner during the Farm to Fork tour in East Gwillimbury. It will be available at the Sharon Temple, the first stop of the tour. Other stops include Thompson Potato Farm, AE Breeding Farm and Natural Meats, Rose Family Farm, Brooks Farm, Sharon Mushroom Farm, Queensville Country Store/King Cole Duck Farm and Vince’s Market. "We’re going to have taste testing pretty much at every single stop," said Madyson Taylor, tourism co-ordinator at the East Gwillimbury Chamber of Commerce. People will also learn about local farms and the history of Thanksgiving. "At each stop we are going to have a small educational component," said Taylor, adding there will also be some childfriendly activities.
