oodGreen Community Services is recognizing two leaders, the late Rima Zavys and Jack Layton, for their contributions to the city’s east end by naming one of its buildings and the program space in another location in their honour. “They both, in their own ways, played very significant roles in the community,” said Brian Smith, WoodGreen’s president and CEO, during a recent interview. “We want to recognize their contributions to the east end.” At its 75th annual general meeting held Sept. 27, the east-end social service agency announced it plans to name the program room at its First Step to Home residence, located in the former New Edwin Hotel (650 Queen St. E.), Rima’s Place in honour of Zavys. Zavys served in a range of roles at the organization from manager of housing to manager of neighbourhood development and eventually director of that department where she developed its housing help and homelessness program until her death of breast cancer Jan. 17 at the age of 45. “(Rima) was a tremendous advocate for homelessness and was a driving force around the issue of bedbugs. She really brought that to the forefront,” said Smith, adding a photo of the First Step to Home building was presented to Zavys’ husband and children during last week’s annual general meeting. Further, Smith said it was also important for WoodGreen to honour Zavys’ work at the east-end social service agency. Also at the annual general meeting, WoodGreen said its 170-unit affordable housing complex for seniors at 1070 Queen St. E. at Pape Avenue would be named Jack Layton Seniors Housing in honour of the >>>CEREMONIES, page 8

JOANNA LAVOIE jlavoie@insidetoronto.com It may be an ambitious goal, but Pegasus Community Project is aiming to collect at least a million pennies before the venerable copper coin goes the way of the Dodo bird. The Upper Beach-based nonprofit, which provides day programming for young adults with developmental disabilities, recently relaunched its Pennies for Pegasus campaign inviting local business owners, groups and individuals to raid their penny jars and donate to the worthy local cause. “We’ve been collecting small change since 1994, but now we’re just trying to blow it out of the water because it’s our last chance to do it,” said 30-year Beach resident Marie Perrotta, the organization’s founder and executive director. “This is the first time we’re doing a big drive like this.” For the first time, Pegasus is asking local business owners to collect coins for the organization by placing a jar on the counter of their shop, restaurant and office.
connection to the local organization as her late sister benefitted from its programs and services, said what may seem like a handful of coins can really make a difference in a Pegasus participant’s life. Adds up

Helping to promote the Pennies for Pegasus campaign are supporter Zoltzz Weisfeld, longtime owner of Ends at Queen Street East and Elmer Avenue; Marie Perrotta, Pegasus Community Project founder and executive director; Alistair James, program participant; and Emily Marmoreo, Pegasus staff member and supporter. The organization provides programming for young adults with developmental disabilities.
Individuals and community groups are also encouraged to contribute what they can. Upper Beach resident Emily

“They’re just a few pennies but it adds up, just like Pegasus was built one person at a time,” she said. Pegasus Community Project was created in 1994 as a way to provide programming for young adults (age 21 and older) with developmental disabilities. The registered charity started off small at one location with five individuals. Today, Pegasus serves more than 40 and their families at three sites and operates a thrift store on Kingston Road. Longtime local businessman Harold “Zoltzz” Weisfeld, owner of Ends at Queen Street East and Elmer Avenue, has had a Pegasus coin jar on the counter of his business for several years. “People toss in their small change and it makes a big difference,” said Weisfeld, who recently dropped by
the Pegasus Thrift and Gift Shop on Kingston Road with a large jar full of coins. “These people need the money really badly. It goes to a fabulous cause and all the people there are amazing,” said Weisfeld, who also donates extra clothing from his store to the local charity when possible. It’s easy to collect coins for such a worthy local cause, he said. “God blessed me and I’m giving back,” said Weisfeld, urging his fellow east-end business owners to support Pegasus any way they can. Coin donations, which will be used to cover the cost of offering ongoing personal support to individuals with developmental disabilities as well as expand Pegasus’ programs, services and awareness campaigns, can be dropped off at the organization’s thrift and gift shop at 931 Kingston Rd., at Lawlor Avenue. Arrangements can also be made to pick up contributions. Tax receipts are available for donations more than $20. Call 416-913-2544 or visit www.pegasustoronto.ca
Pinewood Toronto Studios breaks ground on Phase 2 in the port lands JOANNA LAVOIE jlavoie@insidetoronto.com Pinewood Toronto Studios (PTS) in the port lands is getting a $40 million expansion. Currently home to seven sound stages including a 46,000-square-foot mega-stage – touted as the largest of its kind in North America – as well as a $50-million, 280,000-squarefoot office complex, the second phase of development for the film and television production facility will include three new state-of-the art sound stages as well as a new 100,000-square-foot office building. Located on the eastern side of the PTS site, the three new sound stages will each measure 10,800 square feet and are designed to be used for smaller features, television series and live TV, while the new office space, intended to house purpose-built production facilities for film and television, will be on the southwestern portion of the 11-acre property. Stakeholders and politicians gathered last week to break ground and unveil plans for the project, which is set to be completed by 2014. “This expansion builds on the amazing success Pinewood Toronto Studios has enjoyed since opening in 2008,” said Blake Steels, PTS’s president, in a Sept. 27 release. “We’ve attracted Canadian and international film and television productions along with big name

Hollywood blockbusters.” Speaking on behalf of Mayor Rob Ford and Toronto City Council, Councillor Michael Thompson credited all involved in the project, notably Councillor Paula Fletcher, as well as former councillor Mike Feldman. “This is a very important day for us,” said Thompson, adding the City of Toronto is happy to support Pinewood Toronto Studios and what it brings to the city, notably more than $1 billion in spending including 25,000 directly related jobs. Canada’s largest film and television studio and the third largest film studio in North America after
Los Angeles and New York, PTS was instrumental in helping Toronto’s screen-based industry reach that figure as two major blockbusters, the remake of Total Recall and sci-fi thriller Pacific Rim, were both filmed there. ‘demonstration of confidence’ Thompson, who chairs the city’s economic development committee, said the facility’s expansion is “a demonstration of confidence in the future growth of the film and television sector in Toronto.” Fletcher said the dream to resurrect an old industrial area into a hub

for film and television production has been realized. “For everybody (who) has believed, I think this is our moment,” the Ward 30 representative said before expressing a great sense of pride in the local industry. Fletcher also thanked Paul Bronfman, PTS’ chair, for continuing to believe in the project even when “the days got dark.” The founder, chair and CEO of Comweb Corp., Bronfman has been involved as a principle investor in the facility since its previous incarnation as Filmport. In June of 2009, a new ownership consortium headed by U.K.-based
Pinewood Studio Group took control of the film and television hub during a time when Toronto’s screen-based industry was struggling to draw major projects. Nonetheless, Bronfman remained steadfast in his support for the venture. “I’m just ecstatic. It’s almost a bit surreal; the fact that it’s such a long journey (to get to this point),” he said, following the recent groundbreaking event. “I think where we are now and where we’ve come since June 2009 is just completely over the top, unbelievably phenomenal. Now here we are announcing Phase 2.”

Junior Citizen Awards a chance to nurture creativity
W
ho are the outstanding youth in your community? The Ontario Community Newspapers Association, of which The Beach Mirror is a member, wants to know. They want to know about the youth who are performing community service – independently, or through their schools and volunteer organizations. These youth are performing heroic acts. They’re contributing to their community while living with a physical or psychological limitation. They do more than what is our view normally expected of someone their age. A number of youth from Toronto communities have been both nominated and recognized over the years. Last year, two of them, Kalem McSween and Andrew Sigmaringam, then 17, were among the 12 provincial recipients. Overall, there were 176 nominees from across the province. McSween, a North York resident, served as a peer mentor to Grade 9 students who have been struggling and are “at risk” both academically and socially. He was also selected to participate with the Toronto Police Services’ Youth in Policing Initiative. Sigmaringam, an Etobicoke resident, helped raise $5,000 for the Free the Children charity and has assisted children with autism. Born deaf, he had cochlear implant surgery as a toddler to allow him to hear. He also shares his personal experiences as a guest speaker at workshops. Any Ontario resident between six and 17 (as of Nov. 30) is eligible to be nominated. Up to 12 nominees will be chosen as recipients of a provincial award and will be invited to a special ceremony next spring. Recognizing youth contributions is positive. But this should go beyond actual recognition. Ultimately, the value of Ontario Junior Citizen Awards is more than providing deserved recognition for the fine work youth do in our communities. We recently wrote in this space on the value of engaging younger citizens for the purpose of ensuring existing volunteer organizations survive a change in generational leadership. We must nurture that innovation and creativity to ensure it blossoms. When our future leaders are being encouraged to explore a pioneering spirit, it means there are fresh, relevant and contemporary solutions to community challenges. The nomination deadline is Nov. 30. Nomination forms are available at www.ocna.org/ juniorcitizen or by calling 905-639-8720 ext. 239.
We must encourage future leaders

No end to Toronto transit funding talk Oh, goody. The October meeting of Mayor Rob Ford’s Executive Committee will have a familiar treat: a long talk about how the city might fund major transit expansion projects in the future. It is familiar indeed. From Mel Lastman to David Miller to Ford, the dream of big transit projects has fueled both rhetoric and design like no other project except maybe property tax increases. In that sense, the conversation starting this month and going into next spring will be a little stilted, and might not go anywhere. That’s because the report from City Manager Joe Pennachetti frames the question at the nexus of those ideas: namely, how to finance big transit expansion. The report is something Toronto council asked for,
THE CITY
david nickle
mostly in response to Ford’s plan to build a Sheppard subway into Scarborough using private sector money and federal and provincial grants. In shutting down the subway dream, council decided to look at ways of financing transit absent either the private sector or nominal help from higher orders of government. It is a sensible thing to do: an “adult” conversation that determines what exactly Torontonians are willing to pay for in the way of public transit. The report looks at hiking the land transfer tax by a percentage
point, reinstating a $100 vehicle registration tax, imposing road tolls and a one per cent property tax hike. In the same agenda, the city manager is setting up a plan to devise a transit plan itself based upon a review of the city’s Official Plan. Once again, it is a sober and sensible approach to transit planning. Well, there is still an element of pipe dream to it all. Because even as Toronto council is considering these plans, so too is Metrolinx. Metrolinx also is looking at ways to finance its own transit expansion plans, which encompass the entire Golden Horseshoe. The question becomes: if roads do get tolled in Toronto, just whose projects will that money go toward? And so the transit conversation will go on, with no end in sight.
To the editor: Re: ‘Transit users speak out against bad behaviour,’ Special Report, Sept. 27. I read the article by Rahul Gupta; I could not believe the comments made by TTC chief customer service officer Chris Upfold. “Rudeness is not something that catches my attention as being high.” Another statement by Upfold was that riders should alter their travel patterns and the times they travel in order to reduce potential disputes. I could go on and on. The message sent by Upfold was rudeness and disrespect for others wins. Values, respect, manners and etiquette are instilled into us at an early age with maturity bringing that forward to our later years. Once again the TTC has exposed itself to show us how deep their problems lie. The TTC biggest hurdle is the TTC. Ray Blais

president Ian Oliver paid tribute to retiring vice-president and Simcoe/ Muskoka regional publisher Joe Anderson. “Joe’s creativity, drive and strategic focus have made him a significant contributor to Metroland.” Proudfoot led the creation of the Metroland Central division in May, adding Toronto Community News (TCN) to his York Region Media Group, upon the retirement of TCN publisher Betty Carr. Metroland’s Toronto, York Region, Simcoe, Muskoka, Parry Sound and North Bay media properties have a tradition of creating strong community partnerships and supporting non-profit organizations, through volunteering, donations and services. Proudfoot’s longtime commitment and outstanding contribution to community was recognized when he received a 2011 Ontario Medal for Good Citizenship. He is quick to acknowledge the contributions and talents of his employees. “I’m honoured to work with people who have true passion for their communities and what they do on a daily basis,” Proudfoot said.

ners turning back at Beech Avenue instead of at Neville Park Boulevard. This modification is being done to give area residents additional travel and parking options. Another change this year is there will only be one official Beach cheering section, not two like in previous years.

Runners are still expected to arrive in the Beach between 10:15 a.m. and 2 p.m. Local road closures will be the same as last year from 10 a.m. to about 2:30 p.m. Visit www.stwm.ca

The Toronto Waterfront Marathon, which is set to bring runners through the Beach for the fourth year Oct. 14, will be undergoing some minor route changes. The most noticeable change is the location of the Queen Street East turnaround, which will have run-
The Martin Goodman Trail is being rerouted until April
as a result of construction on the Ashbridges Bay light rail vehicle storage and maintenance facility. The portion of the trail affected will run along the south side of Lake Shore between Leslie Street and Coxwell Avenue to the trail on the north side of the road. Sections of the trail along Leslie Street from south of Commissioners Street to Lake Shore will also be interrupted. Further, one northbound lane on Leslie Street between Commissioners Street and Lake Shore Boulevard East will also be closed. The majority of the work will take place Mondays to Fridays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Contact the TTC at 416397-8699, ashbridges@ttc. ca or Hydro One Community relations at 1-877-345-6799.

Book and a building up for Heritage Toronto Awards Two east-end residents and a recently renovated circa-1927, low-rise apartment building at 42 Hubbard Blvd. in the Beach are among 14 finalists vying for a 2012 Heritage Toronto Award. The 38th annual Heritage Toronto Awards, which will be handed out Tuesday, Oct. 9 at the Royal Conservatory of Music’s Koerner Hall, is the longest-running heritage awards program in Canada to
recognize and celebrate innovative work and programs that preserve and promote the city’s heritage. A panel of 17 jurists was charged with selecting 14 finalists among more than 25 entries in four categories including architectural conservation and craftsmanship, book, media and community heritage. Among the finalists is Little India resident Mark Osbaldeston, who has authored two books on the city’s
never-realized architectural and master planning projects. His latest book, Unbuilt Toronto 2: More of the City That Might Have Been, is one of four finalists in the book category. Featuring 150 photographs, maps and illustrations, Unbuilt Toronto 2 helps the reader imagine how different the city might have been. Reshaping Toronto’s Waterfront, co-edited by Ward 30’s Jennefer
Laidley, is also up for an award in the book category. Published by University of Toronto Press, this book offers a series of insights from 15 academics on the past and present of the city’s waterfront. It also analyzes the dramatic transformation of the waterfront during the past 150 years as well as the complexity of city building and the influence of the environmental,

Hubbard apartment retains original design elements >>>from page 14 more energy efficient, fully accessible and up to building code. Special attention was also made to include some of the original design elements of the building’s original Tudor and art-deco elements. Anyone interested in attending the awards ceremony/reception and the accompanying 16th annual William Kilbourn Memorial Lecture can purchase tickets for $30 for adults or $15 for students at the
Royal Conservatory of Music box office at 273 Bloor St. W. at Bedford Road. Tickets can also be purchased by calling 416-408-0208. The lecture features Chief Bryan LaForme of the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation discussing the role the Mississaugas helped in repelling American invaders during the Ward of 1812 as well as the relationship between the tribe and Toronto to the present day
including the historic 2010 settlement of the original purchase of what is now Toronto. Visit www.heritagetoronto.org for details about Heritage Toronto, an organization that works with Torontonians to advocate for, preserve and promote appreciation of the city’s heritage as well as heighten awareness of our history by providing programs and services, and its annual awards program. - Joanna Lavoie
Youth poster contest now open ANDREW PALAMARCHUK apalamarchuk@insidetoronto.com Young people seem to always be on their cellphones. And even the police have noticed an upswing in the number of misdials coming from them. Now police are turning to the city’s youth to create a campaign to combat the problem. Toronto residents aged 10 to 24 are invited to create a video or poster educating others on when to call 911
and how to avoid pocket dials, which clog up the emergency line. “All the entries will be judged and we will select one to be the public service announcement for the Toronto Police Service,” Const. Wendy Drummond said. Contest info Winners will also be awarded a prize. The contest closes Nov. 9. For contest details, visit www. torontopolice.on.ca/911contest
