ANDREW PALAMARCHUK apalamarchuk@insidetoronto.com Members of 55 Division’s primary response unit will be among the 100 police officers wearing body-worn cameras (BWC) while on duty.

The year-long pilot project, which kicked off Monday, will also involve members of the TAVIS rapid response team, traffic services motor squad and 43 Division’s community response unit.

“We believe that body-worn cameras are a valuable piece of technology. It will provide an unbiased, accurate account of our interactions with the public,” Staff Supt. Tom Russell

told reporters during a news conference at police headquarters late last week.

“This project has the potential to strengthen policing, and I think it has the potential to strengthen our relations with our community and enhance public trust.”

Officers taking part in the pilot have undergone months of training as police have developed specific procedures and guidelines on when the cameras are to be activated.

Ali Momen enjoying Bollywood-style Shakespeare JOANNA LAVOIE jlavoie@insidetoronto.com East-end actor Ali Momen is having a ball performing in a Bollywood-style rendition of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing.

A native of Thornhill, ON who has lived in Riverside near Queen Street East and Broadview Avenue for the last seven months, Momen plays the role of Darius, the Persian version of Shakespeare’s Claudio.

As the right-hand man of the play’s main character Benedict (who retains his original name), Darius is one of the show’s most dramatic characters who falls in and out of love and back in love again with Sita (Hero in the Bard version), the daughter of Mayor Ranjit of Brampton (AKA Lenato).

“My character is always crying and screaming. He has the biggest trag-

edy in the show,” said Momen, who graduated from Sheridan College’s music theatre performance program in 2006 and now teaches there.

The Bollywood adaptation of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About

FROM CONCEPT

Nothing is set in modern-day Brampton and features an all-star cast of about a dozen conflicted and comedic South Asian characters.

In keeping with the Bollywood theme, one of the show’s characters only speaks Hindi with subtitles during the play.

“The whole show is a lot of fun,” said Momen, who had to learn a number of high-energy Bollywood dance routines for the dynamic production, which opened April 29 and runs until May 31 at the Tarragon Theatre’s mainstage, 31 Bridgman Ave. “The show is melodramatic.

It’s high emotion and ridiculous,” he said.

Described as an all-out war of the sexes against a backdrop of a very Canadian clash of cultures, Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing fuses classical text with Bollywood in a larger-than-life

take on one of Shakespeare’s most notable comedies.

Tarragon’s Artistic Director Richard Rose, the brainchild behind the play, contacted Momen back in February about performing in the Much Ado project. He had previously worked with Rose three years ago in Shakespeare in High Park.

Rehearsals started the following month.

Momen, who has also performed three seasons at the Shaw festival, has several stage, television and film credits to his name. He recently wrapped up filming the lead role in his first-ever feature film, Beeba Boys, by Oscar-nominated director Deepa Mehta.

Participating officers have also received training on issues of privacy and human rights.

“The body-worn cameras will be activated every time an officer responds to a call for service or is investigating an individual,” said Russell, adding the officers are expected to notify the public when activating the cameras “as soon as reasonably possible.”

Russell said the cameras will not be recording when officers have casual or informal conversations with members of the public.

“We’re not conducting surveillance on people or the community, so the officers are not going to be activating the camera and simply walking through a community and surveilling people,” he said, noting a number of reports and inquests recommended Toronto Police explore the use of body-worn cameras.

The pilot project, which costs $500,000, includes the cameras, the software and the secure storage.

Three different cameras, ranging from $600 to $1000 each, will be tested.

Two of the camera models are set up with a 30-second pre-event buffer, meaning when the officer activates the device it will also capture the previous 30 seconds of video, but not audio. Each camera can record for 32 hours.

Officers don’t have the ability to alter, edit or delete any recording.

The camera data will be stored for one year unless it is needed for an investigation or court.

In recent weeks, police have delivered more than 20,000 surveys throughout the city to get community feedback on the project.

Caregivers are heroes, but they need support, too

Proudly serving the communities of The Beach • East End-Danforth Greenwood-Coxwell South Riverdale Woodbine Corridor Beach Hill

Write us

A

ssuming the role of caregiver for a loved one may seem a natural decision when a friend or family member is struck with dementia, or acute or chronic health problems. But it can be a long, burdensome and isolated journey and those who make these sacrifices need to make sure they’re getting the supports they need.

That’s why we at Metroland Media Toronto, in partnership with Downsizing Divas, are once again bringing The Caregiver Show to our city on May 30.

Presented by Saint Elizabeth Health Care, which offers at-home services for family caregivers, the free show is a chance for caregivers to discover that they’re not alone. There’s a wealth of resources available to help make what can be a difficult job that much easier to undertake.

According to the Alzheimer our view Society of Canada, the physical psychological toll on family May 30 show and caregivers is considerable – with dedicated to 15 to 32 per cent experiencing depression at one point or caregivers another. While people care for others out of a sense of personal responsibility and love, they need to be prepared to deal with the stress involved.

At this year’s show, hear from speaker Teepa Snow, who has more than 33 years of experience in geriatrics, and is an occupational therapist currently working as a dementia care and dementia education specialist. Health and wellness expert Rose Reisman will also be speaking at the show about the importance of taking care of one’s own health and nutrition.

The Caregiver Show is your chance to connect with others sharing similar circumstances and learn tips on how to navigate opportunities for government support. Discover that you’re not alone – in fact, you’re among almost eight million family caregivers in Canada. Get first-hand advice from experts, explore products and see demonstrations from our participating organizations. And don’t miss the Rest and Relaxation Zone, to help you replenish your spirit and energy levels.

It takes a hero to dedicate oneself to the care of another, but even heroes need support sometimes.

The show is Saturday, May 30 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Centennial College Progress Campus’ Athletics Wellness Centre, 941 Progress Ave. To register for the free event, visit www.caregivershow.ca

Gardiner debate must address costs The debate over the future of the Gardiner Expressway could turn out to be a very interesting discussion about the future of Toronto.

It is odd that it should be: after all, we’re just talking about 1.7 kilometres or so of concrete, and the bit of roadway that is currently suffocating underneath.

Toronto is so much more than the connection of two highways, and really, whether the city spends $900 million to rebuild the thing on a new configuration or about $400 million to rip it all down doesn’t make for a hill of beans in Scarborough or Etobicoke or North York.

It is not a big part of the city. But it has become a big part of the debate about the city all the same, and when Toronto politicians start to talk about it… it gets emotional.

Indeed, it got so emotional last week that when Toronto’s public works and infrastructure committee was faced with making a

david nickle the city proper recommendation on the matter, it threw up its hands and left it all to council.

Mayor John Tory is going into that council meeting intending to support the ‘hybrid’ option of essentially shifting and rebuilding the ramps between the Don Valley Parkway and the Gardiner Expressway. It is costly, and doesn’t confer as many city-building advantages, but it appeals to many of the voters who might leave their mark next to pro-car Rob Ford’s name next election. And there are enough of those voters across the city that it’s likely a majority of councillors will lean toward the more expensive project.

But the matter of the cost is the thing, and it might be quite the thing.

York Centre Councillor James Pasternak, who sits

on the city’s budget committee, is a supporter of the hybrid option, but at the May 19 meeting of that committee, he made it clear that he wasn’t about to support it without a way to pay.

And the best way to pay?

Road tolls, he said, preferably collected in such a way that it gave Toronto taxpayers a break.

Well. If there is any issue more historically emotional than the question of the continued elevation of the Gardiner Expressway, it is the terrifying prospect of Hwy. 407-style road tolls on highways running through the heart of the city.

Even when they haven’t been an issue – as in the 2003 mayoral race when John Tory (then a candidate) accused David Miller (soon to be the mayor) of favouring tolls on city highways – they’ve been a preoccupying issue. Miller spent a great deal of energy then and in the months and years afterward distancing

himself from the road-toll option for paying for city infrastructure.

The city considered imposing tolls in 2008, and eventually rejected the idea because a full, regionaltolling system that included the 401, DVP and 427 would have been prohibitively expensive to set up.

And indeed, this would likely remain the case.

But Pasternak raises an interesting issue, as council moves to consider yet another billion-dollar-orso infrastructure project resting on the same old revenue streams as before: namely, if Torontonians want to start living larger, or simply according to their needs, then money is going to have to come from somewhere beyond simple savings.

And sooner or later, Toronto Council is going to have to start talking about what that might look like.

Yard and service shop Doors Open this weekend celebrate 50 years >>>from page 1 Interestingly, the complex has 15-kilometres of track, he noted.

Prior to being a TTC yard, the 31-acre site was a brick yard and a garbage dump. “( The Greenwood Yard) was originally a quarry way back when, then in the 1930s it was basically the official dump for the city of Toronto,” said TTC spokesperson Danny Nicholson.

“It was called Harper’s Dump.”

In the mid-1960s, the Toronto Transit Commission acquired the 31-acre property as it needed a facility to repair and maintain its fleet of subway cars along its new line.

“It was built to accommodate the Bloor-Danforth subway line,” Nicholson said.

The construction of the Greenwood Yard, which opened in March 1965, preceded the February 1966 opening of the first segment of the TTC’s Bloor-Danforth subway line.

On Saturday, visitors can tour various workshops within the yard.

Some of the most interesting buildings in the city’s east end will be open for public tours during this weekend’s Doors Open Toronto festival. The 16th annual event runs Saturday, May 23 and Sunday, May 24.

RESIDENTS OF TORONTO:

TELL LIBERAL MPP ARTHUR POTTS TO VOTE AGAINST BILL 91

Within days, the Ontario Legislature will vote on Hydro privatization (Bill 91) Please tell Liberal MPP Arthur Potts to vote against Bill 91 — to protect residents of Toronto from…

SOARING PRIVATIZED ELECTRICITY BILLS By voting against Bill 91, Liberal MPPs can save Hydro One from privatization.

Arthur Potts

MPP, BEACHES—EAST YORK

1821 Danforth Avenue Toronto, Ontario M4C 1J2 Tel: 416-690-1032 Fax: 416-690-8420 apotts.mpp.co@liberal.ola.org

Liberal MPP Arthur Potts has a choice: Protect the people of Toronto from even higher hydro bills – by voting against Bill 91

OR

Fall in line with the sellout of Hydro One – a one-time dead-end cash grab at the expense of future generations.

Important message to members and supporters of the Ontario Liberal Party: Even partial privatization has brought soaring electricity rates in countries around the world. Small business owners, farmers and residents cannot afford to pay more for electricity.

Future generations will need the perpetual flow of hundreds of millions of dollars from our public Hydro One — to pay for public services like health care and education.

If Bill 91 is passed, Liberal MPPs like Arthur Potts, the Ontario Liberal Party and Premier Wynne will be held responsible for the consequences.

There are many reasons to keep Hydro One in public hands.
