Farmers Market going weekly at Fairmount Park Tara Hatherly thatherly@insidetoronto.com If you build it, they will come, the saying goes, and come they did to a one-day test-run of the Fairmount Park Farmers’ Market in May. Building on the event’s suc-

cess, the market will run weekly, 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesdays, from July 17 through Oct. 30.

Approximately 500 people showed up to the spring market, completely cleaning out some vendors’ stock.

“The test-run was amazing. We had an overwhelming

response from the community,” said organizer Kim Antonius.

“To see all of those people show up right at the start of the market, it was an amazing feeling. It was very encouraging, and really helped me push forward to make this happen weekly.

“Overwhelmingly, everybody said, ‘Please come back, we really want this weekly; it fits into the lifestyle of people in the neighbourhood, and it’s accessible.”

The weekly market takes place rain or shine in the south>>>DUE, page 10

In the early morning hours of Saturday, July 13, a resident living above Andrea’s Gerrard Street Bakery came home from a night out and saw an orange glow coming from the building on the corner of Broadview Avenue and Gerrard Street.

“He’s the one that called 911,” said Judy Ouk, president of East Chinatown’s Chinese Chamber of Commerce. “During the phone call the explosions went and blew right out the window.”

This phone call ended up bringing 70 firefighters to the scene of the four-alarm fire that broke out at 5 a.m.

Twenty-six tenants were displaced by the fire, which brought down the building, and is keeping surrounding buildings closed until Monday at the earliest.

“It was very bad for the businesses, but we’re lucky that nobody was killed in the fire,” said Ouk whose husband owns Bill’s Lobster down the street from the collapsed building.

Hazardous material crews continued to clean up Tuesday as the Fire Marshall waited on a structural engineer to determine whether surrounding buildings needed to be demolished as >>>small, page 7

Local youths play at Beaches jazz festival

Malvern Collegiate grad playing July 27 with Canada’s National Youth Jazz Combo REBECCA FIELD rfield@insidetoronto.com The East End will get a taste of the sounds of its own local musicians at this year’s Beaches International Jazz Festival – and these sounds are barely out of high school.

Malvern Collegiate Institute grad Emily Steinwall finished school only one month ago, but she is playing saxophone in two sets at this year’s festival.

The festival runs from July 19 to July 28 and has performances along Queen Street East as well as the Boardwalk, Kew Gardens and Woodbine Park.

“I’m really looking forward to just being in my own ‘hood performing,” joked Steinwall who will perform on the Youth Stage as part of Youth Jazz Canada’s National Youth Jazz Combo as well as her own independent combo, The Emily Steinwall Sextet.

“We’re playing my original music with that other group so I’m excited about that,” said Steinwall.

The sextet will play at Kew Gardens on July 27 at 2 p.m., and the National Youth Combo will play an hour later at 3 p.m. on the same stage.

“I think it’s a really, really important part of the Beaches community. I think people look forward to it all year and

students out of Humber College from July 15 until the end of the Jazz Fest on July 27. across the country

Thomas UpJohn, left, Virginia Frigault-MacDonald and Emily Steinwall perform at The Rex jazz/blues bar.

I think it’s really good exposure for local musicians to be a part of,” said Steinwall.

“It’s a really good opportunity for people who wouldn’t normally go down to clubs and check music out and check jazz out.”

Other members from the

sextet include Riverdale locals Lee Clarke-McQuaig a n d Ewe n Fa r n c o m b e.

Farncombe is also participating in Youth Jazz Canada this summer.

Youth Jazz Canada is running a two-week, intensive workshop with around 30

T h e p r o g ra m a l l ow s young performers from all over the country to come to Toronto and perform at different venues including The Rex, The Jazz Bistro, and at MusicFest and TD Toronto Jazz Festival.

The program commissions artists-in-residence to teach for the two-week summer workshop, including Rich Perry, a saxophonist from New York, and Ben Monder, a guitarist from New York, along with some of Canada’s top jazz musicians.

“I’m looking forward to all of the classes and the artists in residence,” said Steinwall who is participating in the workshop for her

third year.

“You get to work really closely with the faculty. The program has just grown so much in those two years.”

Steinwall is going to Humber for saxophone in September.

“This is just a little taste of the next four years of my life,” she said.

Steinwall took up saxophone in Grade 9 band class and hasn’t put it down since.

“I just kind of fell in love with it and then went a little crazy, putting all my time and energy into it,” said Steinwall.

Her sextet plays regular gigs including at the Rooster Coffee House on Broadview Avenue in Riverdale.

“I’m just looking forward to making music for my whole life and writing music and playing fun gigs,” said Steinwall.

Downtown Dixieland Jazz Band celebrates 25 years at StreetFest The band is set to perform at the corner of Queen Street and Lee Avenue from July 25 to 27 REBECCA FIELD rfield@insidetoronto.com

T

wenty-five years ago a trumpet with the smooth sounds of Louie Armstrong-era music played out for the first time across Kew Gardens on Queen Street East.

It was the first set of the first ever Beaches International Jazz Festival, and local favourites the Downtown Dixieland Jazz Band were the inaugural sound – a sound that they’ve helped continue as a staple of the jazz festival for the past 25 years.

“At first the streetcars went along Queen Street and then it got so popular it became an accident waiting to happen,” said Myrna Van Weerdenburg who sings in the band, which during the first show was known as The Hot Peppers.

“I still remember people standing in front of the streetcars and backing up to guide them through,” said Myrna. The festival now includes a streetfest,

Trumpeter Al Cox, guitarist Harris Mark Lusher, bassist Ron Johnston, singer Myrna Van Weerdenburg and Downtown Dixieland Jazz Band leader Nick Van Weerdenburg.

which closes off Queen Street to cars and streetcars from July 25 to 27. More than 45 bands will be playing across a two-kilometre stretch of street.

“I think it (the festival)

brings a lot of people to the Beach who might not come there,” said Myrna.

The band is once again set to perform on the corner of Queen Street and Lee Avenue where they

have performed every year but two, when they were slotted in a theatre.

“When we get back from break, people are waiting there,” said Myrna who grew up in the Beach

neighbourhood and whose children went to Kew Beach Public School and Malvern Collegiate Institute.

“It’s a very popular band.”

Festival organizer Lido Chilelli asked the band to open the festival after they performed at his pizza parlour called Lido’s, among other regular performances across the East End such as the Balmy Beach Club, Babbage’s (since closed down) and Ben Wicks Restaurant and Pub at Parliament Street and Gerrard Street.

“When he started organizing these festivals, we were pretty much famous in the Beaches at the time,” said Nick Van Weerdenburg, the band’s lead who plays clarinet and saxophone.

“Lido says go play on the street and I said not on the street, I don’t want to play on the street,” said Nick who is originally from Holland.

“But it was the best thing I’ve ever done.”

Nick said their perfor-

mances get them more gigs at weddings or business events, and that they’ve been recognized by fans of their music in places as far as an airport in Ecuador, and out at a theatre just last week.

“A lady came up to Myrna and said ‘you are the singer from the Downtown (Dixieland) Jazz Band’ and she said ‘we’ll see you in a couple of weeks. We’re there every year,’” said Nick.

Nick and Myrna have been married for 22 years after meeting through the band. The couple live in Scarborough.

“It’s nice to be together with someone who also enjoys the music,” said Nick who fell in love with jazz while studying classical clarinet as a teenager.

“Our trombone player last year, he turned and said ‘We’re just having too much fun here,’” said Myrna.

uesday marked the one-year anniversary of the worst mass shooting in Toronto’s history. The incident at a community barbecue on Danzig Street in Scarborough took the lives of 14-year-old Shyanne Charles and 23-year-old Joshua Yasay, and left 24 people injured. Among the wounded was a 22-month-old baby.

Much has happened since the shooting that shocked Toronto, including the arrest of two men and a 17-year-old boy in connection with the shooting.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper, then-Premier Dalton McGuinty and Mayor Rob Ford all came to the area shortly after the shooting to pledge support in fighting crime and promoting community safety.

Mayor Ford called for “a war” on gangs the city. And while there our view has notinbeen an actual war, police presence in Danzig and other Residents play communities has increased, as has interaction officers are having critical role in the with residents. community McGuinty pledged funding to tackle the root causes of some of the crime and gang issues in the city. Through the Ministry of Children and Youth Services, 20 extra youth outreach workers were funded for Toronto and more than half are working in the city’s east side.

Federally, Harper also promised help and just last week Scarborough Centre MP Roxanne James announced the extension of the GangBusters program, which helps keep young people away from gangs.

That’s all good. It would have been a disgrace if the follow up to Danzig had been nothing but empty political promises.

This month’s five provincial byelection campaigns, including the Scarborough-Guildwood riding in which Danzig is located, are the time to hold candidates and parties accountable on crime and community safety.

What will not change is the critical role residents must play in making their own neighbourhoods safer.

Earlier this month Danzig had local children playing baseball, meeting at a townhouse set aside as community space, and taking care and control of their neighbourhood.

Residents across the city should do the same. That needs to be the lasting legacy of what was a horrible day in Toronto’s history, a commitment that we will never let such a thing happen again.

column

Etobicoke byelection could change Ford’s team There’s nothing certain in love, war or politics – but it’s a fair bet when the dust settles in the Etobicoke-Lakeshore byelection, there’s a good chance Mayor Rob Ford will have a new deputy at his side.

His current Deputy Mayor, Doug Holyday, is of course the Progressive Conservatives’ great hope to win a Toronto riding. He’s currently nipping at the heels of fellow councillor and Liberal candidate Peter Milczyn, but the polls are close enough to make it a possibility that on Aug. 2, Milczyn will be coming back to city hall and Holyday will be off.

And if that happens, Mayor Ford will be looking to a new deputy, Scarborough Centre Councillor Norm Kelly, to have his back for the rest of the term.

I predict Kelly will do a good job. Throughout his career, he’s always been a dutiful team player, of the dance-with-the-one-thatbrung-you variety. But he won’t provide the unique

david nickle the city qualities that Holyday provided for Ford. It’s fair to say that only Ford’s own late father, Doug Ford Sr., has been as much of a mentor in retail conservatism to our mayor as Holyday has.

Both men have made careers of eschewing the perqs of a councillor’s office, and criticizing those who indulge. Ford’s insistence on holding down and voting against stop signs and traffic calming installed against staff’s recommendation was learned at Holyday’s foot. I remember when Ford came to City Hall for the first time, right before he was first elected, I met him and his brother Doug Ford in Doug Holyday’s office.

All of this has combined to make Doug Holyday an excellent deputy mayor. He’s a trusted enough member of Ford’s inner circle to take the lead on some of Ford’s biggest files, and also to

be able to get away with applying necessary public pressure when the mayor’s handling of his personal issues have threatened to derail the city’s government.

Can Kelly do the same?

The short answer is no.

Through his long career as a city councillor, Kelly has often seen nothing wrong with taking expensive trips on the public’s dime.

And his dutiful loyalty to his mayor is undercut by the fact that Kelly was an equally loyal lieutenant to Mayor Ford’s predecessor, left-of-centre magistrate David Miller.

Can Kelly do a good enough job, though? The short answer there is sure.

After all, just as Deputy Mayor Holyday is campaigning hard for a new job now, Mayor Rob Ford is already campaigning hard for his old job back. And that will make for lighter lifting in the deputy mayor’s job.

Letter

No parking on city streets I would like to offer a suggestion to those seeking input for Toronto’s Feeling Congested? campaign.

How about no longer allowing those who do not have a parking space located on their place of residence to park on city streets.

No place to park it, no car. Simple.

‘Old Toronto’ was never designed to accommodate the automobile yet those in power do nothing to discourage their overwhelming negative impact on their neighbourhoods.

If those at City Hall really want to eliminate traffic congestion, I can think of no better solution than to actually get the parked cars off the roads.

So in answer to the ‘Feeling Congested?’ question I can emphatically say yes. Everytime I enter the environs of the ‘Old City of Toronto’.

Trinh Huynh, owner of Sammi’s Gift Shop at 585 Gerrard St. E., had all of the goods in her store destroyed by smoke and water damage as a result of the fire.

“I think I lost everything in there,” said Huynh who built up the business over 20 years. “I do hard work. I’m a hard worker and I’ll build back my business.”

Huynh is still waiting to find out whether her store is structurally sound or whether it will need to be demolished.

“She was only given a few minutes to run in (to the store) and grab a few things, but it wasn’t safe enough and she had to get out,” said Valerie Mah, Vice President of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

“She lost her business and everything that she has there,” said Mah. “(She’s) been resilient and wanting to do things on her own. You’ve been a good role model for

all,” Mah said to Huynh at a press conference at Pearl’s Court Restaurant on Gerrard Street on Tuesday.

“We’re not looking for charity,” said Mah. “We’re just looking for people to come back to our community.”

“We need to let people know that this area is still open for business,” said Councillor Paula Fletcher at the conference. “There’s quite a bit of suffering for this small business district.

They are holding up well and we’re going to see what the next week brings and how we will move forward from

that.”

TTC routes continue to be diverted as wires were taken down to make room for demolition machinery.

“It was a four alarm fire that’s having a ripple effect on transit,” said Fletcher.

“The whole city is affected because you can’t move through the east end to go downtown anymore.”

The Fire Marshall will be unable to determine the cause of the fire until the site is cleared for safety

COMMUNITY

Due to popular demand, more prepared-food vendors will be added >>>from page 1 west corner of the park at 1725 Gerrard St. E. Like the one-day event, the weekly market will feature free live music and activities, alongside fresh and prepared-food vendors.

Many spring vendors will return for the weekly market, which will also feature new vendors throughout the year.

In March, organizers surveyed residents to gauge

interest in a market. While most respondents were in favour, a few expressed concern about potential traffic and parking issues.

“We had very little issue with parking or traffic, most people rode their bikes or walked, which was really great,” said Antonius.

“The market organizers stayed behind to survey the park, and really we were picking up tiny little pieces of paper that were

left behind. So garbage was not an issue at all, and we had many neighbours who immediately surround the park who came by to say that they were very happy, and feeling great, about what was happening. So, that was positive as well.”

The market’s offerings also received rave reviews.

“The community was really happy with the selection of goods,” Antonius added. “We had some people ask for more organic farms, and we’re working on finding that.

“The great thing about starting small and thinking big, is that we can work with the community to make the market represent what they’re looking for, to the best that we can.”

More prepared-food vendors will also be added, based on feedback.

Several student volunteers assisted at the spring event, and will help support the weekly market.

“I think the vendors were a little shocked to see a gaggle of children offering to carry

all of their stuff, and help them set up their tables,” said Antonius with a laugh.

“I think it was a really positive experience for them. It allowed them to meet the people who grow their food, and learn a little bit about where that food comes from.”

Along with offering sustainable food choices, the

market will promote sustainable practices.

“We’re really trying to push a sustainability theme,” Antonius explained. “We’re going to head towards a zero-waste point by the end of the summer, and we’ll have three target activities that we’re going to do to reduce waste.”

Organizers will announce

the activities soon. As well, people can drop off unwanted materials at the market, to be made into art.

Nature’s Course Arts will use the materials to teach youth at the market how to create art from recycled and natural objects.

“We’re thinking big, but taking small steps, so that the community can contribute to the growth of the market through feedback, volunteerism, sponsorship, and by just showing up to shop and support the farmers,” said Antonius.

“Come join us for our inaugural day, and celebrate the community’s success.”

Interested volunteers can contact Antonius at kimantonius10@gmail.com for more information, or search Fairmount Park Farmers’ Market on Facebook to connect through the site.

Musicians interested in performing at the event are also encouraged to contact Antonius.

CONSUMER FEATURE

Traditional caring and affordable family dental care Dr. Anne Frackowiak, DENTIST

The dental office at 2351 Queen St. E. has served the community for over 40 years and has been a long standing institution in the area.

We’re in a lovely community filled with families, children and grandparents alike so we see all ages in our practice. We pride ourselves on keeping up with the latest in dental developments and technology. I served three years as a clinical demonstrator at University of Toronto Faculty of DenDr. Anne Frackowiak & Associates is a fam- tistry and am a member of The Toronto ily, cosmetic and preventive dental care Crown & Bridge Study Club and the American Association for Cranio-facial pain. practice in the Beach.

My staff and I are people oriented and we want to get to know our patients and what their needs and concerns are. Everyone comes with issues, whether they’re health related, dental or budgetary and we want to address these.

We recognize that some people have a higher anxiety level and there is the fear of loss of control in the dental chair or of not knowing what to expect. We work with patients at their own speed and comfort level and offer modalities such as conscious sedation to make the experience as comfortable as possible. Nothing is more

rewarding to us than to hear a once anxious patient say “I can’t believe I fell asleep in the dental chair!”.

We make sure that it’s a fun and positive experience for children. Our very first visit with little ones is often complimentary with a ride in the chair and we provide a children’s corner in our reception area.

It’s important in our practice to take a more holistic approach and look not just at teeth but at the patient as a whole. A patient’s lifestyle, diet and parafunctional habits (grinding, clenching, nail biting) can have a huge impact on the dentition so we talk to patients about nutrition, smoking and sleep disordered breathing (SDB) which can effect your overall health.

We’re fortunate to have a great relation-

ship with a terrific group of gifted specialists who look after our patients with more complex needs. Our patients are thereby exposed to the very latest in periodontal and oral surgery and endodontic treatment using such modalities as ceiling mounted microscopes and cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT).

Some of the services we provide in our practice include all aspects of preventive dental care, cleaning, sealants, tooth coloured bonded fillings, veneers, and restoration of implants. We believe in delivering quality care and will work until it fits right and feels right. We are always accepting new patients. For more information or to book an appointment, please call 416-691-4768.

Bal Gosal, Minister of State (sport) and MP for BramaleaGore-Malton, spoke to the crowd.

“We will be hosting one of the largest international multicultural sports events in Canadian history,” he said, adding the facilities being built for the games will be used long after the games are over.

“The Golden Horseshoe will be the place to be in 2015,” said Gosal.

Ontario’s Minister for Tourism and Culture Michael Chan said his government has kept pace in the building of the facilities needed for the Games.

“Our government is proud to bring the games to the country,” he said.

Marcel Aubut, president of the Canadian Olympic Committee, told the crowd he saw the pride of Canadians at the Vancouver Olympic Games.

“In Toronto 2015 we will see that pride again,” he said. “Our

To mark the two-year countdown to the Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games, the Games organizing committee (TO2015) planned celebrations in 10 locations in the Golden Horseshoe including downtown Toronto’s Commerce Court last week.

Along with demonstrations of BMX jumping and a trampoline routine by Etobicoke’s Olympic silver medallist Jason Burnett, a ceremony was held with various speakers including wheelchair racer Josh Cassidy.

“In 2015 I plan to be right here competing for gold,” said Cassidy, who won both the 2012 Boston Marathon and 2010 London Marathon.

Roger Garland, TO2015 chairman of the board, welcomed the crowd gathered in the court.

“Let’s celebrate because there is a lot to celebrate,” he said. “This is a special day for Toronto. Today is just a preview of the spirit and excitement

goal is we want to finish in the top two nations. I prefer the top one.”

Mayor Rob Ford officially declared the day to be Pan Am/ Parapan Am Day in celebration of the two-year countdown.

“Hosting the 2015 Games will strengthen Toronto’s international reputation, further increase economic development opportunities across the city and create a sport and infrastructure legacy while showcasing Toronto as a dynamic and diverse city,” Ford said.

In all 10 communities special murals created by artist David Arrigo were unveiled.

The artwork will be on display at the various venues throughout the Golden Horseshoe and will remain in the communities to be mementos from the Games.

The opening ceremony for the Pan Am/Parapan Games will be happening on July 10, 2015.
