Mayor John Tory (left), Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau arrive at the port lands by water taxi to make a funding announcement. Trudeau, who pointed to the various economic benefits of unlocking the port lands, notably, the estimated 80,000 jobs that will be created in the port lands and East Harbour upon completion as well as the 12 million square feet of new commercial development space that will be added to downtown Toronto.
"This investment will ensure that Toronto continues to be an attractive place to do business, both big and small." He also said the redevelopment of the port lands, which will provide housing for up to 40,000 people, as well as new parks and green spaces, would contribute to a "better quality
of like for the people of Toronto." The Ontario government is contributing $417 million to flood protecting the port lands, which Wynne said is the "single largest stretch of underdeveloped and underused of waterfront in North America." "I am so pleased that
this project will help to restore.one of Canada’s national treasures," said Wynne, who said one of the best aspects of unlocking the port lands is the plan "to rip up a parking lot and create a wetland, a green space" pointing to work that will soon begin to renaturalize the mouth of the Don River. In the late 1880s,
insidetoronto.com
The end of the beginning is how Cindy Wilkie, co-chair of the West Don Lands Committee, described news all three levels of government have come together to invest $1.25 billion to protect the port lands from flooding. "It’s going to happen in my lifetime, and I’m really happy about that," said Wilkie, a 20-plus-year downtown east resident who has been working and advocating for the redevelopment of Toronto’s waterfront for several years, following a news conference last week at Polson Pier. "It’s a transformative move for Toronto. I can’t wait to see 10 years from now." Both Mark Wilson, Waterfront Toronto’s former chair of the board, and John Campbell, the tripartite agency’s former president and CEO, are elated. They both worked with Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, the City of Toronto, and several other key partners for more than a decade to unlock the potential of Toronto’s 2,000-acre port lands. Wilson, who ended his tenure at the end of 2016, said this news has been a long time coming. "I’ve been at this for 25 years. For me, it’s incredible to go from an idea, a vision to a funded reality, said Wilson, who is the founding chair of both the City of Toronto’s Task Force to Bring Back the Don and the TRCA’s Don Watershed Regeneration Council. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau along with Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne, Toronto Mayor John Tory, and Will Fleissig, the president and CEO of Waterfront Toronto, arrived by water taxi to the June 28 event, which kicked off with Trudeau announcing his government is investing $384 million in the project. "We need to take steps now to ensure the land we are gathering on can be safely used and enjoyed for generations to come," said
the waterway was straightened and rerouted into the Keating Channel. Wynne said she expects some "challenging conversations" will have to be had but said that the vision and the commitment are there and the right partners have stepped up to make it happen. Calling the project "transformative" and "exciting", Tory said the redevelopment of the port lands will bring "new neighbourhoods, new jobs, and new opportunities" that will "tap into our city’s true potential", "unlock the true value of our port lands", and protect Toronto from the effects of flooding in the future. Economically, he said the design and construction of the port lands, which is primarily cityowned land, has already contributed $1.1 billion to the Canadian economy. "It took a long time to get here today, but we’re here doing something that is very important," Tory said. "When governments work together to unlock the potential of cities we all benefit." Fleissig said the face of the waterfront is changing, adding big possibilities can become a reality when everyone is aligned. Calling the news the "culmination of a decadelong conversation" that has included the input of thousands of people, he said last week’s news is a great example of how cities can be built in the 21st century. The Port Lands Flood Protection project, which will take 715 acres out of the flood plain by re-naturalizing the mouth of the Don River, is expected to take about seven years to complete. The port lands, which are bounded by the Keating Channel/Don River, Lake Shore Boulevard, the Inner Harbour, Ashbridges Bay, and Tommy Thompson Park, fall within the Don River floodplain, an area that could experience flooding if Toronto was hit by a significant regional storm or 100-year flood.

NEWS
Crashing tree takes out power lines, car A massive oak tree that toppled onto Scarbrough Road, near Queen Street, over the weekend led to downed wires and a localized power outage. The tree fell Saturday just after 8 a.m., landing on a parked car and blocking off the road. As it fell, it took down power lines, which were "live and sparking" ac-
cording to Toronto police constable David Hopkinson. Area resident Bernice Phillips Higgins said the tree was likely over 100 years old, which is typical on the quiet Upper Beach street. "Every one of these trees - you worry about them coming down any time there’s a big storm or
anything," she said. Crews worked well into the morning to clear the street and take care of the downed hydro lines. Front page photo by Dan Pearce.

JOANNA LAVOIE jlavoie@insidetoronto.com It’s Beaches Jazz time! For the 29th consecutive year, the free, nearly month-long, communitybased festival is continuing to foster and highlight the talent of emerging artists, said its founder and executive director Lido Chilelli. "We’re always looking for the next biggest thing," he said during a recent news conference.This year is no different, added Bill King, longtime artistic director of the festival which runs July 7 to 30."The reason we started this festival is because we saw musicians from our community not getting stage play like other artists. We changed that," he said. "Many Beaches Jazz artists have gone on to have great careers. It’s fantastic to see the young ones go out and find their place in the world and make music." Both Chilelli and King
also thanked the many sponsors and supporters for helping make the festival a resounding success year after year. Chilelli, a longtime Beach resident, also said Beaches Jazz is an important part of Toronto’s vision as a music city and a major player in the greater festival scene. This year, Beaches Jazz also joined Festivals and Major Events Canada, a member-financed advocacy organization representing the festivals and major events sector in Canada. This weekend, the Beaches International Jazz Festival will kick off with Sounds of Leslieville and Riverside at Jimmie Simpson Park, 870 Queen St. E. at Booth Avenue. The mainstage lineup will get underway on Friday, July 7 with The Happy Pals at 6 p.m. and will wrap up with a concert by Gypsy Sound System starting at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, July 9.

ABOUT US
Downtown baby boom calls for civic attention Ah, to be young, living in a vibrant and accessible city - and, of course, in love. It is a dream that is coming true for a growing number of young people who’ve chosen to start their lives in the condominium canyons of downtown Toronto. After sequestering themselves in a smallish apartment, small enough to encourage them to step out and enjoy the bars and restaurants and activities of downtown Toronto, it is inevitable that some of them will meet and fall for each other. It is only a step or two from there to where we are now: a downtown crowded with a new cohort that is even younger. Babies. Social Planning Toronto, an advocacy group looking at urban form and social justice issues, has released a report looking at the age and sex data from the latest census across all of Toronto’s neighbourhoods. And while the numbers of youngsters are constant across the city compared to previous censuses, there is a noticeable baby bump in the downtown. Over the past decade, the number of children younger than five has increased dramatically: some parts of the downtown by threefold, others by 70 to 90 per cent. If nature continues to take its course, there will be more now and even more in the future. This presents a challenge that city planners have been expecting for years but have still been struggling to meet: the need to transform Toronto’s downtown from its old role as a commercial and cultural centre into a collection of intensified residential neighbourhoods where space is at a premium. As it sits now, downtown Toronto is not especially family-friendly. Park and open space are very limited. There will need to be more classroom space as those toddlers move through the preschool stage to school age. The core will need more community centres, and a lot more licensed child care that’s affordable and close by. And developers raising condominium towers and rental units will have to make larger units a more common feature in their projects. It’s tough enough to squeeze two people into 600 square feet, after all - never mind a growing family. There are worse problems to have, of course. A whole clutch of growing families in a dense neighbourhood has been a dream of progressive urban planners for more than half a century, and that is exactly what we have downtown. Now, all we’ve got to do is make it work.

Byelections should always trump appointments Picking the councillor for Ward 44 in Scarborough was a long and occasionally entertaining process. Council had decided to appoint a councillor to fill the east-end Scarborough seat following Coun. Ron Moeser’s death in April, and as always in these cases, aspiring city councillors came out of the woodwork. A total of 48 of them put in applications, and most of those also came to a special council meeting last week to make their case. They needn’t have bothered. Councillors had already made up their minds on one of two obvious choices: a former city councillor with a reputation for fair-mindedness and a former city bureau-
DAVID NICKLE The City crat with a reputation for fair-mindedness, both of whom had a good handle on the issues in Scarborough Southwest. All 46 others may as well have stayed home or simply withdrawn their applications, rather than give the stump-speech deputations that they did, in front of a city council listening as politely as it could.

Of course, it wouldn’t have done to tell anyone that, because doing so would only highlight how undemocratic it is for a city council to pick its own membership. This doesn’t happen at other levels of government. When a vacancy occurs federally or provincially, there’s a byelection - period. Picking their representative is a part of a citizen’s democratic franchise. As matters transpired in Ward 44, the electors there at least had their franchise respected. Jim Hart, the former bureaucrat, worked with the late Coun. Moeser for a year and will almost certainly fit well with the will of voters in 2014. But, that is not neces-
sarily always going to be the case. When the late Jack Layton left his Ward 30 seat to lead the federal New Democratic Party, there was a move afoot by conservative-minded councillors to install a right-wing appointee as caretaker until the next election. They didn’t prevail, but the only thing that prevented them was a hard push from council’s left and centre. The only thing that will prevent that in the future is byelections - all the time, no matter what. David Nickle is a reporter and columnist covering Toronto City Hall for Metroland Media Toronto.

Little India: Village of Dreams premièred on TVO on July 1 as part of its Here and Now 150 documentary series for Canada’s 150th anniversary. The 58-minute-long film, which tells the story of the families behind Kala Kendar, Chandan Fashion, Forever Young Beauty Salon and Spa, and Lahore Tikka House, can now be viewed online at tvo.org.

Beevision and Village of Dreams Productions together with TVO, the Gerrard/Ashdale Library, and the City of Toronto Archives invited people to share stories, photos, and videos that reflected the neighbourhood’s people, locations, culture, and spirit from the late 1970s to the present day.

Village of Dreams in its many forms aims to get people talking about the future of the local business district, the South Asian family unit, the entrepreneurial spirit of Gerrard Street East, and the diversity and identity of the evolving neighbourhood. "For me, I feel this project has the potential to be a strong marketing vehicle for the Bazaar," Beveridge said. "My goal is to have a positive impact, to help the neighbourhood. That would be my dream outcome." She also said the project has been a window into the dynamics of the neighbourhood. "Making this film has been a real personal growth experience. Because of this project I feel I’ve established meaningful roots in this area," Beveridge shared over a coffee at a local café. Visit www.villageofdreams.ca for more information.

terminal at The Queensway and Park Lawn Road opens for business at 4 a.m. daily.
Above, Walter Konik shows off some of his Niagara Region-based Konik Farms strawberries at the Ontario Food Terminal farmers’ market. Konik has spent a lifetime growing strawberries, peaches and plums, the majority of which is sold at the terminal. Left, Nature’s Gardener, Manuel Macedo, loads up his truck with fresh flowers. The terminal is where independent shops, garden centres and florists buy market-ready flowers. Right, Buyer Tom So samples a red delicious apple. Buyers walk the market, checking products and prices of individual sellers before deciding to make a purchase. The farmers’ market is located underneath the terminal’s parking deck; protecting buyers and sellers from rain, snow, and the heat of the sun.

The Otterville, Ont.-based farm owned by the Den Boer family grows 13 different crops and multiple varieties of each including five types of radishes. It caters to higher-end supermarkets. Top, the view through the front window of the Street Produce warehouse location, shows work in process. The terminal has 80 warehouse units. Middle, a truck is loaded with produce purchases at the Ontario Food Terminal farmers’ market. Approximately 2 billion pounds of produce is distributed through the terminal each year (5.5 million per day). Bottom, ceiling-mounted refrigeration units maintain the temperature on one of the storage rooms at the terminal warehouse. The terminal has 100,000 square feet of cold storage space over 19 rooms. Each room is individually controlled for temperature and humidity. An air filtration system developed for the space shuttle takes bacteria out of the rooms. insidetoronto.com
