The opening of the Cherry Street ship channel bridge is facing further delays this summer, and is not expected to reopen until mid-September.

Councillor Paula Fletcher’s office put out a statement saying she will be continuing to press for answers and an expedited completion date.

The bridge, which has been under construction since November 2012, was first expected to re-open in June, but the completion time was moved back to the end of July, and again to September.

Fletcher put a motion forward to city council July 8 recommending council request Deputy City Manager John Livey expedite the bridge’s completion.

The councillor was unavailable by Beach Mirror deadline to comment on the response to this motion and the extended deadline for the bridge’s completion.

The construction continues amid road closures and construction along Leslie Street due to streetcar track construction.

The single-lane bridge on Unwin Avenue is the only other access point to the port lands.

There are lots of construction projects currently underway on Toronto’s streets. Visit www. toronto.ca/torontostreets

Switchback Cyclery helps brings a new spin to the community REBECCA FIELD rfield@insidetoronto.com The summer months have brought plethora of cyclists to the Riverside neighbourhood, and along with it, a new cycle shop. However, this shop brings something extra: a mixture of bike expertise, passion and social enterprise.

Switchback Cyclery works under the umbrella of Sanctuary Ministries of Toronto, and sets out to not only provide high-quality cycle equipment, but also hires marginalized community members as a part of its mission.

The store, at 651 Queen St. E., is set to officially open Saturday, though it has been unofficially since early June.

“It’s giving people some skills and some courage to get back to the workforce,” said Dan Rivers from Leslieville, who works at the bike shop. Sanctuary Ministries of Toronto is a Christian organization that welcomes marginalized Torontonians in an effort to create a community based around inclusiveness.

Rivers joined Sanctuary Ministries after leaving jobs at the University of Toronto as well as the Metro Toronto Court House due to stress, ending up on the Ontario Disability Support

“

bator-like seminars and programming with the Toronto Enterprise Fund, which is operated through the United Way, eventually winning funding in a Dragon’s Den-style presentation in December 2012.

It’s a good feeling to be back at work, and it’s a good feeling to keep my hands busy again.

Cost of inequity

– Dan Rivers

Program. It’s through sanctuary he got the job at Switchback Cyclery.

“When I took some time off I did it kind of hastily and I didn’t realize how complicated it was,” said Rivers. “When they came it was like a godsend.”

“It’s a good feeling to be back at work, and it’s a good feeling to keep my hands busy again,” Rivers said.

The shop is co-managed by Steve Hunter and Cynthia Leung, both of who have a passion for cycling, and who met at the ministry.

After running a woodworking shop called the Mustard Train, which is the same type of social enterprise, Hunter realized they needed a more sustainable means of helping people keep their hands busy, as well as one that allowed them to interact in a storefront-type setting.

“Guys and girls would come and work in a closed environment and at the end of the day go home,”

Switchback Cyclery co-manager Cynthia Leung. Switchback Cyclery, which has its grand opening Aug. 10, is a social enterprise that hires marginalized members of the Toronto community, while selling high-quality bicycles and offering tune ups and repairs.

Hunter said. “As you can see this (Switchback Cyclery) is open to the public and it creates the ability for our folks to be able to interface with the community at large, rather than just interfacing with myself and whoever else is on staff,” Hunter said.

The Mustard Train made furniture and electric guitars, which they

weren’t able to sell fast enough to be self-sufficient.

The Mustard Train was abandoned, and the board at the ministry brainstormed almost 200 ideas before narrowing it down to the cycle shop.

“This idea came out on top, and it was an idea that I could champion,” said Hunter, who attended incu-

“We’ve (Leung and Hunter) been fixing our own bikes and other folks’ for years,” said Hunter. “That’s not the reason why we’re here, that’s the reason we could champion this initiative. This really feeds me.”

“My passion is to be involved with people who are suffering with inequity,” Hunter said. “There’s a cost emotionally, there’s a cost mentally, there’s a cost physically, there’s a cost spiritually, at every level, but there’s also a benefit to that; what you see, and what you experience, and the relationships you develop.”

Leung left a job as an electrical engineer to manage the store, which Hunter said also maintains its integrity by only selling quality products. “There’s been a really warm and welcoming reception by everybody in the neighbourhood,” Leung said.

The store will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. in August. Visit www. switchbackcyclery.ca for details

Motherload comedy by Erin Keaney returns to Lazy Daisy’s Rebecca Field rfield@insidetoronto.com

T

erms of endearment from a mother to her children generally don’t involve calling them ‘selfish, obnoxious a**holes’, but with one comedy troupe of mothers, consider it a guarantee.

Motherload, a stand-up comedy night run by east-ender Erin Keaney, returns to Lazy Daisy’s Café Thursday, Aug. 15 at 8 p.m.

The show invites parents to hire a babysitter for the night, and join fellow parents in the community in listening to parent-themed comedy while relaxing with a glass of wine.

“Parenting is not pretty. It’s not cute. We don’t think our kids are perfect. We don’t think they’re precious. We think they’re a bit obnoxious and they can be a**holes,” said Keaney, who has two daughters, Poppy, 6 and Annabel, 10.

“It (the show) gets really dirty, really quickly and the audience loves it.”

Keaney started Motherload first as a web series sponsored by

Johnson & Johnson.

When Dawn Chapman opened Lazy Daisy’s Café in October 2011, Keaney approached her while picking up her kids from Bowmore Public School.

“I met Dawn because all of those mothers (at the school) were desperate for a coffee shop that wasn’t like the one on the corner that I like to call the kick and stab...with crusty muffins that have a scent of cigarettes,” said Keaney.

“When she opened the place, I was so excited.”

Keaney recognized a need for the mothers to gather somewhere other than the schoolyard to unwind, and decided to pursue her desire to perform stand-up comedy, with a parenting theme.

“There was a need for parents to get out, especially moms, to come out for a glass of wine and have some laughs,” Keaney said.

“These mothers are desperate for some booze and some dirty talk.”

The first show took place in November 2011, a month after the opening of Lazy Daisy’s Café, and had a turnout of 15 people.

“The next month we had 70

“

people come out, so word of mouth got out,” said Keaney, who attributes the strong parenting community around Bowmore Public School to the crowd that shows up to the sold-out show each month.

“It’s like the Internet except it’s mom-net,” said Keaney about the network that helped spread word about the show. “These women are die-hards. They come almost every month – it’s their night out.”

Chapman, owner of Lazy Daisy’s, said the show is at a

I love my children, but there’s so many things I hate about being a mother.

– Erin Keaney

location that allows parents to walk from their homes, and still manage to be home in bed by 11 if they want to.

Other Motherload performances have taken place at Smock Café in the east end and Cam’s Place in North Toronto.

Keaney is looking for places for the show in the Junction in the fall, and is hoping to go on tour with it in the future.

“My face hurts every time at the end,” Chapman said.

“I’m glad we’ve created this space where people can come out and just have a great time. It’s just really nice to see people here and laughing. It’s beautiful.”

The show has Keaney herself performing, along with a troupe of professional comedians.

In the past, Elvira Kirk from Q

with Jian Ghomeshi on CBC radio, Ryan Belleville of Satisfaction and Sabrina Jalees, Jean Paul and Frank Spadone of Just for Laughs have performed with some ranting about parents and their children.

“They just want to know that everybody else is going through exactly what they’re going through, over wine,” Keaney said.

Topics range from daycare to sex to finances to the ridiculous behaviour of parents when they have 12 childless hours to spend by themselves.

“I talk about everything I hate about being a mother,” Keaney said. “I love my children, but there’s so many things I hate about being a mother,” said Keaney referring to making school lunches as something she can’t stand doing.

“It sucks when you’re doing it for yourself and when you’re doing it for other people it sucks doubly – and then they’re not eating it. Children are so selfish.”

Let facts, not emotions, guide our judgment E

motions are running high in the aftermath of Sammy Yatim’s shooting death. News that the 18-year-old died in a confrontation with police was met with shock and grief. The footage of the incident from cellphone video escalated that emotion.

It’s become common, with mobile video devices in every purse and pocket, that emergency situations involving police are captured and shared online with thousands of viewers.

We become spectators – in this case, standing on the curb, watching as police yell orders at an individual who’s alone on a streetcar in the middle of the night. Shots are fired. Sirens blaze. More shots, more yelling. Then there’s a crackling – it could be a Taser - and our view sound the video comes to an end.

Based on what appears to Await findings have happened, people are in uproar. They’re demanding in shooting of an justice for the teen’s death, sinSammy Yatim gling out the officer who fired his weapon. Some groups are going so far as to blame the police force as a whole – as we saw during last week’s march outside 14 Division headquarters. A petition has been launched to bring ‘justice for Sammy Yatim’.

But it needs to be impressed upon people that the facts are not yet known. Of course, it’s a tragedy that a young man died but we can’t be so quick to lay fault – especially not when that judgment is based upon a dark, blurry cellphone video.

The province’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) is looking for answers. Police Chief Bill Blair acknowledged the need for those answers and promises full cooperation with the SIU, including a full review of the policies, procedures and training of the officers involved. Ontario’s Ombudsman, André Marin, is also set to review the fatal shooting.

People need to step back, be patient and await the findings. Even Yatim’s family spoke out, saying they hold no ill will against the Toronto police force.

And when the investigation is complete, the police need to be transparent in sharing the findings and the recommendations and must follow through on holding accountable anyone who may be at fault.

We may not have been there to know exactly what happened, but we know enough to never want another police standoff to end so tragically.

Mayor’s influence on provincial byelections debatable Much has been made of Mayor Rob Ford’s deliberate and enthusiastic involvement in the two provincial byelections that recently took place in the city.

Over the course of the campaign, Ford stumped and shouted, alleged corruption, berated, paraded and, of course, endorsed two candidates from the party of his late father. He put as much energy into the enterprise as one might expect a mayor to put into mayoral duties: so much so that he caught the disapproving eye of the Minister of Municipal Affairs Glen Murray and raised the ire of Ford’s executive committee ally Peter Milczyn – both of whom were trying, without success, to plant a Liberal flag in the riding of Etobicoke-Lakeshore.

Ford might take some of the credit for preventing that, and decisively helping his deputy mayor, Doug Holyday, deliver the first Toronto Progressive

david nickle the city Conservative seat in a decade. The claim would be more credible, of course, if he’d been able to do the same for the PCs in Scarborough-Guildwood.

It might be more reasonable to say that Holyday was in an excellent position to do so, all on his own.

The long-serving municipal politician has had good years and bad over the course of his career — sometimes better known for utterly losing his temper on the floor of council, and sometimes, over these past few years, for bringing genial calm to a tumultuous field.

While Holyday has never been anything but partisan, he’s proved essential to the Ford administration, delivering in negotiations with unionized workers what could be some of the most lasting changes to the way

the city does business.

When Ford was dealing with what seems will be only the first part of his alleged crack video scandal, Holyday was a supportive second-in-command. He was also an appropriate scold, joining much of the public in urging the mayor to address the allegations against him head on.

That Holyday would win in a riding that had been confidently Liberal for a decade isn’t surprising. That Ford’s candidate should lose in a riding to the east of there, in spite of everything... well, if a mayor’s word means anything in influencing a vote, that is a bit of a surprise.

Ford and his family have been a-courting in Scarborough since the 2010 municipal election. Ford promised and could well be on the cusp of delivering a subway there.

Scarborough folk were lined up through the trees at his first-ever Scarborough FordFest

party. Personally, he polls well there, too.

Yet he could not transfer that combination of elbow grease and pixie dust to influence a provincial vote.

It might be the office itself doesn’t hold much influence. When Ford’s predecessor David Miller waded into federal elections in a less partisan way, he tended to pick candidates in individual races that had a decent chance of winning. Mel Lastman knew enough to stay out completely.

It might well serve as a sobering lesson to the Fords, who obviously enjoy campaigning and do seem to have a knack for it: regardless of how much fun it is out on the hustings for some other level of government, their energies might best be applied to dancing with the ones that brought them, and doing the job they were elected to do.

>>>from page 1 Waterfield, along with Guy Matorin and Dana Harrison, rallied the community with flyers, pamphlets, a facebook page and a petition hounding the city to give their dogs an off-leash area separated from Joel Weeks Park.

“The density in the area is growing considerably,” Waterfield said. “We just thought it would be a good space to utilize for dogs.”

The park was in response to the opening of Joel Weeks Parkette down the street at Thompson and Carroll streets.

“Being really conscious that a lot of people moving into the neighbourhood do have dogs (and) to make sure that they weren’t all in the Joel Weeks park and there’s room for kids and families and no pressure between dogs and people,” said Councillor Paula Fletcher as to why the dog park opened.

The park was initially going to be used for more condo development, but the campaigning by these community members brought

attention to the need for more space for pets, she said.

“They told us (after the o p e n i n g o f Jo e l We e k s Parkette) that we weren’t allowed to have another dog park,” Fletcher said. “We said ‘Well let’s get everybody together, put some pressure

on, because we really do need an off-leash area.”

“We really did have to fight kind of hard for this one, but I think it was sure worth it,” said Fletcher. “I think Precious thinks so, too.”

Toronto emergency services kick off blood donation campaign 2013 Sirens For Life campaign goal is to collect 1,200 blood donations by Sept. 2 ERIN HATFIELD ehatfield@insidetoronto.com Deborah Hunte said she is alive because of the people who give blood.

“I’m here today, I’m breathing today, I’m working today because people donate blood,” said Hunte at the kick-off to the annual Sirens For Life campaign to raise blood donations.

Hunte, a downtown resident, has a genetic blood disorder called sickle-cell anemia and has received blood more than 20 times in her life. Her twin sister died 13 years ago because of complications from sickle-cell anemia, but Hunte said she enjoyed 36 years of life with her – also thanks to Canadian Blood Services and the people who donate blood.

The Sirens For Life campaign, which kicked off July

10 at Toronto Police Service 14 Division on Dovercourt Road, is an annual competition between the Toronto Police Service, Toronto Emergency Medical Services, Toronto Fire Services and other emergency services to donate the most units of blood over the course of the summer.

The organization with the largest percentage of blood donations wins bragging rights.

“I won’t spend a lot of time talking about who the potential winner of this competition will be, given the obvious answer is that the police will certainly do the best,” joked Acting Toronto Police Service Deputy Chief Frank Bergen.

The police know the need for people to give blood, Bergen said, because they witness it first hand when attending car crashes and the like.

“A person who is injured in an auto collision may require as much as 50 units of blood,” Bergen said.

“This year to date, the Toronto Police Service has investigated 25 collisions with life-threatening injuries. That would translate to requiring 1,250 units of blood.”

The 2013 Sirens of Life goal is to collect 1,200 blood donations before Sept. 2.

Charmaine Lodge, Canadian Blood Services director of donor and clinic services, said summer is typically a challenging time of year for collecting blood.

Donations take a dip because people are out of town or don’t book appointments to donate because they are out enjoying the weather, Lodge said.

“The challenge is that summer is also when people are out and about – they are on the roads, they are on the

Crackdown on illegal use of e-bikes Media previews Union Station reno

T

oronto police have launched a monthlong crackdown on the illegal use of motorized electronic bicycles, commonly known as e-bikes.

Police began handing out tickets to e-bike users for improperly using infrastructure intended for regular bicycles. City bylaws do allow the vehicles to travel in bike lanes and park trails, but only if the bike’s motor is turned off. The fine for not doing so is $305.

The crackdown will last until Saturday, Aug. 31.

Distracted driver simulation A web simulation from the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) shows just how much distracted drivers miss when not paying attention to the road.

Ta k i n g i n t o a c c o u n t weather and road conditions, the simulation allows users to see the dangers caused by distracted driving.

The TTC chair hit back at a newspaper editorial decrying political interference in transit planning.

Posting on her personal blog, Councillor Karen Stintz took a recent Toronto Star column by Toronto Region Board of Trade CEO Carol Wilding to task, insisting politicians should make the final decision on the fate of a transit project, and not Metrolinx, to keep the best interests of taxpayers in mind.

“Metrolinx continues to ask the city for input because it (the city) understands that building political consensus is paramount for better taxpayer investment into public transit,” Stintz wrote.

Goodman Trail addition wMartin

The latest addition to the 56-kilometre path running parallel to Lake Shore Boulevard is between Yonge and Lower Jarvis streets.

According to Waterfront To r o n t o , t h e trail addition is intended to complement a newly opened sidewalk in the area and provide a safe passage for cyclists and pedestrians.

The addition was ready by the end of July.

RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com The TTC opened up its Union Station construction site late last month to members of the media, where work is proceeding on an additional subway platform.

The $161.5 million project, which began in May 2011, is part of an extensive renovation of Union Station and is expected to open in the summer of 2014 in a partially finished state.

Intended to double the station’s existing passenger capacity, the project is one of the most challenging the TTC has ever undertaken due to the pressures of keeping subway service going, said TTC Project Manager Malcolm MacKay. “It’s a technically challenging job in that we’re excavating beside an existing facility and logistically difficult because we’re trying to operate our business of moving people.

Our business is not construction and we have to keep our eye on that,” said MacKay

Wednesday, July 31.

The new south platform will serve the Yonge line and will be partitioned from the existing platform via a decorative 12-by-eight foot multipaned glass wall spanning the length of the new subway platform to serve as both a public art showcase and barrier, MacKay said.

He said going with the barrier design between subway platforms rather than widening the existing structure would mean less disruption for existing train service at Union and smaller project costs.

2014 opening “If we were to widen and put platforms on each side we would be giving up the existing infrastructure we have in place and doubling the excavation required for the project,” MacKay said.

He said the opening of the new platform in 2014, even in an unfinished state, will pave the way for a much-needed renovation of the existing

central platform, which has not seen extensive work since Union Station opened as part of the Yonge line back in 1954.

The work is part of an extensive revitalization of Union Station, which has double the daily passenger traffic of Pearson International Airport and is used by major transportation providers such as the TTC, GO Transit and VIA Rail.

Other projects under way as part of the $700 million-plus revitalization, which is funded by all three levels of government, include a new glass roof and atrium over the GO Train shed and passenger platforms, a northwest extension of the PATH passenger walkway and a new retail concourse.

Delays have forced the scheduled date for all planned station renovations to 2016.

Metrolinx is also moving its offices to the station’s newly renovated east wing

by September.

i

The city estimates 20 million subway riders use Union Station yearly.

Peaches n Look for fruit that’s relatively firm with a smooth skin, a sweet scent and a cream or yellow background colour. Avoid wrinkled or bruised fruit or peaches with a greenish tinge at the end. n To ripen, remove from container and keep at room temperature, out of direct sunlight, until the skin yields slightly to gentle pressure. n A medium peach is a source of Vitamin C. ~ Recipes and information courtesy of Foodland Ontario
