Laneway to be named in honour of ‘Peggy’ Delaney

special report: gender identity

Events listings / 5

The community is invited to celebrate the naming of a laneway in the Beach in honour of the late Honora Patricia “Peggy” Delaney this Sunday at 1 p.m.

The Dublin, Ireland-born Delaney, who was widely regarded as the matriarch of Toronto’s Irish community, played an important role in helping shape and nurture the local cultural scene.

A dear mother, grandmother and friend, she was passionate about theatre, fashion, and the arts. Delaney was also a gifted vocalist who performed at numerous events and special occasions.

Delaney, who was a classy, compassionate and charismatic lady and a mentor to many young women, was also a tireless campaigner and fundraiser for a number of causes. She lost her battle with cancer on April 5, 2010 at the age of 85.

Over the summer months, a crew from Community Centre 55 painted a colourful mural

it’s not always black & white

BY KIM ZARZOUR kzarzour@yrmg.com

Do gender-based words affect our behaviour?

Remember baby Storm?

The Toronto baby took the world by storm in 2011 when her parents decided not to reveal her gender to the world for her first years of life.

Parents Kathy Witterick and David Stock wanted to let Storm decide what gender to identify with and, five years later, she is a she.

The couple also made a conscious choice to keep their kids out of public school, to avoid, in part, the school system’s segregation of sexes.

What happens when we erase gender divisions? Does going gender-free impact our behaviour?

The research is unclear.

Lynn Liben, a psychologist at Penn State, studied preschool classes to look at the effects of gender-coded language.

She found when teachers lined children up by gender and emphasized gender in speech, (“Good morning, boys and girls”), students showed an increase in genderstereotyped attitudes toward each other and their choice of toys.

On the other hand, researchers Kumiko Fukumura (University of Strathclyde, Scotland), Jukka Hyönä and Merete Scholfield (University of Turku, Finland), found no correlation between the pronoun system we use and our gender thinking.

In the Finnish language, genders are not differentiated; “hän” refers equally to both females and males, and yet Finns do not think about the gender of people any differently than speakers of English, the researchers report.

It used to be so simple, back in the days of Dick and Jane primary school readers.

We learned grammar by memorizing basic rules. Dick was a ‘he’, Jane was a ‘she’, Spot was a dog and together they were … well, they.

Turns out, it wasn’t so simple after all. Those clear-cut rules didn’t fit everyone and today those who don’t fit are speaking out, sparking what could be a linguistic revolution.

The two-gender, binary world of male and female is shifting. We now have gender-neutral driver’s licences, gender-free washrooms, Toby’s Law enshrining transgender people’s rights in Ontario, and Bill C-16 working to do the same across Canada. And increasingly, people are adopting a cornucopia of alternative pronouns to the traditional he and she.

“Gender is not black and white, but language is,” explained Chris Talbot, a female-to male transgender youth from Newmarket.

Talbot, 18, prefers to be called he.

He spoke with his guidance office in Grade 10 and soon his entire high school had switched references to he.

Today, Talbot is studying at Georgian College in Orillia, making use of gender-free washrooms on campus, readily accepted by his male roommates in his school dorm.

“People have been amazing about it, really. I’ve never had a bad experience, no bullying, no judging,” he said. “Maybe it’s because (trans

issues) are all over social media, but it has been easier than I thought.”

Switching pronouns isn’t smooth for everyone, especially for those who don’t identify as male or female.

At 16, Beatrice Vandikas stumbled upon new pronouns being used by an online blogger: fae and faer.

“I’d been using they and them not realizing there was anything else. I was elated. I thought, Oh my gosh, that’s perfect! That’s me!”

Vandikas had been dating a trans man at the time, dealing with “nasty rumours” in a small-town community, and did not start using those pronouns right away. Now Vandikas is more comfortable using fae (for she/he) and faer (for his/hers/him) – but also less upset when people don’t.

Language is constantly evolving, Vandikas said. “It shouldn’t be that difficult, but changes like that are really hard for people, especially when they’re older.”

Vandikas’ parents, for example, haven’t yet fully embraced the concept. Faer mother once asked faer to help her understand how fae would like her to talk about faer. Fae was encouraged, but faer mother’s use of the pronouns didn’t last – maybe, fae said, because it was such a foreign concept to the older generation, “so I just said to myself, she’s my mom, I’ll deal with it.”

Reading that sentence may have been challenging for even the most open-minded readers, but Vandikas, and others who hope the English language evolves, said it’s worth the trouble. Respecting others is more important than being grammatically

How you can be gender sensitive ■ If you are uncertain about the gender identity of another person and have to refer to them in the third person, use they or them.

■ It is ok to politely ask which gender pronoun a person prefers.

■ If someone explains they are a trans woman, do not use masculine pronouns.

■ If someone explains they are a trans man, do not use feminine pronouns.

■ If you work in an office that has intake forms, include X or Other (if you absolutely must collect information about gender – but consider that you may not actually need information about gender).

■ If you work in a recreation facility, ensure there are trans-positive policies in place so that gender variant people can use the facilities without harassment.

■ Make sure there are gender-neutral bathroom options in your place of work.

correct.

Words hold power, Vandikas noted, especially when they feel wrong and especially when you have an identity disorder and rely on that perfect pronoun to understand who you are and find a sense of community.

“When people say gender pronouns are too confusing, what they are really saying is they don’t want to take the time to question their assumptions about gender,” said York University associate professor Sheila Cavanagh.

Gender is more complicated and nuanced than simple male and female, she said. “The importance of language, and gender pronoun usage, should not be underestimated.”

Increasingly, professors at York U. and other North American postsecondary schools ask students to indicate their preferred gender pronoun when they introduce themselves.

Some go further, allowing students to register their pronouns in the university computer systems; professors are urged to include their pronouns in email signatures.

Alicia Lapointe, PhD candidate at the University of Western Ontario faculty of education, suggested it may be easier for youth, who tend to view gender and sexuality differently.

“They’re more fluid and open about it. By high school or postsecondary, it’s too late to unlearn any transphobia or homophobia.

Elementary students, in particular, are often bullied because of gender expression.”

Lapointe uses nametags that say “please use … pronouns” and introduces herself with: I’m Alicia and I use she, her, hers pronouns.

“It’s a way to get people to see that you shouldn’t assume,” she said.

“I don’t think we lose anything by acknowledging our wide diversity, or celebrating it. Our society is only better if we celebrate everyone for who they are.”

In a relatively short time period, we have discovered the segregation of the sexes and the use of the pronouns he or she have been identified as obstacles as we welcome transgender people to our table of diversity.

The two-gender, binary world of male and female is shifting.

We now have gender-neutral driver’s licences, gender-free washrooms, Toby’s Law enshrining transgender people’s rights in Ontario and Bill C-16 working to do the same across Canada. And increasingly, people are adopting a cornucopia of alternative pronouns to the traditional he and she.

Nearly 80 per cent of those participating agree Canada should work to accommodate and protect transgender people in society.

To better educate our readers, Metroland has embarked on a three-part series that starts today and continues for the next two weeks to explore the linguistic and cultural implications of these changes.

You will hear why the change is needed through the voices of those interviewed by reporter Kim Zarzour throughout her series.

Studies show 47 per cent of transgender people have either considered suicide, attempted suicide or self-harmed in the course of their lives, according to Sawyer Arnold, director of Trans Inclusion, PFLAGDurham.

“By referring to them by the incorrect gender, you increase the risk and add to the emotional distress,” Sawyer said.

Proponents of gender-free washrooms cite safety concerns. Statistics show shockingly high levels of sexual abuse and assault against transgender people.

For these people, simply choosing which washroom to use can be a daily dilemma. Changes in language and attitude will help. These changes are organic and will take time to evolve. Respect and decency should be foremost in our discussions.

Rail deck park a good idea, but costly

T

oday, Mayor John Tory’s executive committee turns its eye to an ambitious and expensive plan – to build a “rail deck” park, which is to say a park built literally on a deck, spanning over the downtown rail corridor from Bathurst Street to Blue Jays Way. It is certainly ambitious – the park would cover 21 acres of rail lands that currently divide downtown Toronto from its waterfront communities, and replace them with a green swathe of parkland that would provide some recreational relief for one of the fastestgrowing communities of tower dwellers in the country.

And, oh Lord, it is going to be expensive: more than $1 billion to construct, according to very preliminary estimates, and more than that to secure the air rights from Metrolinx and CN over those tracks that will allow construction to

david nickle the city take place at all.

The executive committee won’t be signing off on that at its September meeting – before that it is just a couple of million dollars, to refine the plans and move things along to the next stage.

It’s hard to say that the idea of the park is not a good idea.

Downtown Toronto is growing into a giant and potentially precarious residential community, made up of individuals and families squeezed into often very tiny quarters, and the real estate is getting swallowed up.

Waiting another five years until the population reaches its breaking point, and then trying to acquire large-sized parkland from the remaining scraps

could well be even more expensive or, worse, simply impossible.

The trouble is that while the rail deck park is a good idea, it isn’t the only idea that has caught the eye of Mayor Tory’s council.

The city is spending about as much as the rail deck park just a few kilometres to the east, replacing the Gardiner Expressway there with another elevated expressway, against the long-term advice of city planners.

A few more kilometres to the east, council has committed to building a one-stop subway extension into Scarborough that costs as much again.

And if the park is to go ahead, all of that – park included – will have to be paid for, almost certainly with money that comes from taxes and other revenues drawn from Toronto’s residents.

Perhaps this will provide incentive for Toronto coun-

cil to take its forthcoming debate on revenue tools more seriously.

The mayor, and a majority of council, have made it clear that property taxes are not a candidate for enhancement – and they’ve also made it clear that they don’t want to see the city sit still when it comes to improving and expanding its infrastructure.

We should have parks.

We should have subways, and light rail.

And council has decided that we should have a great elevated highway to aid motorists getting to and through the city’s downtown.

But it all leads to a bill that someone will have to pay – and having solidified our aspirations as we have, whoever pays that bill is going to need deep pockets.

Paramedics thanked for saving man JOANNA LAVOIE jlavoie@insidetoronto.com Robert Cummings wouldn’t be alive if it weren’t for the quick actions of six Toronto paramedics.

On Thursday, Aug. 4, the long-time East York resident suffered a sudden heart attack and fell unconscious as his wife, Jennifer, was driving him to St. Michael’s Hospital.

Frantic, she pulled over near Paramedic Station No. 41 at Pape Avenue and O’Connor Drive and called out for help.

Fortunately, crews were in between shifts and several paramedics were able to help resuscitate her husband and transport him to hospital for further treatment.

Late last week, the couple along with a handful of their relatives made their way to the newly renovated Paramedic Station No. 43 at 126 Pape Ave. in Leslieville to thank the first responders for their life-saving care.

“I think everything just kind

of lined up. I got him (to the station) and they saved him.

It was a miracle,” Jennifer said before distributing thank-you cards and big hugs to the six paramedics.

“We just wanted to meet them and thank them for all they do for the community.”

Cummings, who passes by Station 41 on his daily walk, said he’s grateful to celebrate another birthday.

“I’m so happy to be standing here today,” said Cummings, whose birthday is Aug. 22.

Paramedic Daniel Mott was one of the first ones on the scene.

“We were able to revive the patient and restarted his heart right on the driveway of the station,” he shared, adding Cummings’ wife made the perfect decision to stop at the station for assistance.

“This makes up for all the long nights. It’s a magical feeling. It’s a special moment I’ll be able to tell my grandkids about.”

Mike Street was another one of the paramedics who treated Cummings and said it’s a great feeling to see someone they cared for doing so well.

“It’s not every day you get something like this. It’s really, really nice,” he said.

“To see a patient walking, talking and shaking people’s hands is a great feeling.”

The Sept. 14 open house, which took place during Toronto Public Services Week, also served as a celebration of the reopening of the circa 1907 building which was closed for just over four months for renovations.

The work included the installation of two new washrooms and showers, upgrades to the crew room, and new storage spaces among other things.

“What a great way to celebrate a reopening,” said Ward 30 Councillor Paula Fletcher.

“A long and happy life to you Robert and for Toronto EMS: keep up the great work you do.”

The Beach-Riverdale Mirror published a series of articles on my business.

Now everyone knows how great we are!

Today, over 80% of Canadian kids survive cancer.

That’s an achievement.

And a challenge.

The Hospital for Sick Children is a leader in the fight against childhood cancer. Over 1,400 children in Canada are newly diagnosed with cancer each year, and a quarter of them come to the Garron Family Cancer Centre at SickKids. We’re creating a new reality: cancer is no longer a death sentence for children. In fact, in the last 50 years, the survival rate for childhood cancer has increased from 10% to over 80%. Our goal is 100%. Help us get there.

Metroland Media Toronto is proud to be a media partner for SickKids.

The residential break-ins occurred in Toronto in July and August, and police identified a suspect in the case earlier this month.

On Sunday, police executed two search warrants, one on Cosburn Avenue and the other on Gerrard Street East, and seized a large quantity of stolen property.

“Our investigators were

able to identify a lot of the property and some was returned to owners yesterday,” 54 Division Det. Sgt. Jim Gotell said Tuesday.

Police displayed some of the seized items to the media at East York’s 54 Division station in the hopes of finding the rightful owners.

Gotell is asking recent break-in victims to come forward if they recognize their property.

If stolen items aren’t identified, police eventually auction them off.

Four people, including two brothers, were arrested Sunday.

Craig Thompson, 37, of Toronto, is charged with eight counts of break and entering, one count of failing to comply with recognizance, and seven counts of failing to comply with probation.

Kimberly Campbell, 55, Jared Learning, 30, and his brother Brent Learning, 32, all of East York, are charged with three counts of possessing property obtained by crime.
