Roncesvalles connection to notorious bank robbers explored at screening Movie presented by local historical society, Revue Cinema on Jan. 15 ERIN HATFIELD ehatfield@insidetoronto.com A notorious gang of bank robbers with a Roncesvalles connection will be the subject of an upcoming screening and discussion at the Revue Cinema. The Roncesvalles Village Historical Society and the Revue Cinema will

present The Real Story Behind the 1950s Boyd Gang. The evening will include a taped interview with writer/director Nathan Morlando who made the movie Edwin Boyd: Citizen Gangster as well as a screening of the film and a discussion. “I think the reason we are doing this is that we want to show there is a different side to our neighbour-

hood,” said Paul Weinberg, chair of the Roncesvalles Village Historical Society. “The real estate agents came in and created this thing called Roncesvalles Village, which is a nice neighbourhood, but we are saying ‘there is a history here, not all of it is nice’ and give a fuller picture of the neighbourhood.” Between 1949 and 1951 Edwin

Alonzo Boyd and his accomplices staged a number of bank robberies and two break-outs from the Don Jail. For a time the gang had a hideout on Wright Avenue in Roncesvalles Village. “The Roncesvalles connection is still not fully explored,” he said. “We need more information, but we know >>>FILM, page 6

Veteran Stratford actor to perform black comedy at Tarragon Theatre LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com Veteran Stratford Festival actor and Roncesvalles Village resident Robert Persichini was drawn to his latest project for its time period and “somewhat off-centre” characters. Persichini co-stars in the black comedy, The Amorous Adventures of Anatol, presented by the Tarragon Theatre that premiered in Toronto Jan. 9. Adapted and directed by Morris Panych, the play is a contemporary re-visioning of Austrian playwrightnovelist Arthur Schnitzler’s Anatol (1893). The theatrical production, about a Viennese womanizer and his amorous trials and tribulations, continues until Feb. 10 at Tarragon Theatre’s Mainspace. Persichini plays the role of ‘Max’ the psychologist friend to the titular Anatol. “Morris asked me to do this production,” said Persichini. “I was very happy to get the call as I’m a great admirer of his work. I was in his

production of Amadeus at Canstage years ago and have wanted to work with him ever since.” In turn-of-the-century Vienna, Anatol, the young, incurable romantic – and indecisive neurotic – pursues women as if each is “the one”

for him, but without committing or caring. During the course of the play, Anatol woos a succession of seven different women all the while his psychologist friend Max attempts to counsel his hopeless friend. As the audience watches Anatol chase these women, it discovers what he does – and doesn’t – know about the fairer sex, meanwhile revealing all about himself. “I love the period of the play; turn-of-the-century Vienna,” said Persichini, who has lived in Roncesvalles Village for more than 25 years. “All the characters are so alive and somewhat off-centre.” The Timmins, Ont. native says it’s “always exciting” to delve into a different world. Performing, he said, provides him the chance to “discover the timeless ideas in great writing.” Persichini grew up in a family with “artistic leanings.” His parents were both creative in many ways. Their son first got involved in theatre while in high school and discov-

ered then that he would pursue it as a career. Persichini enrolled at Sheridan College’s theatre school and then attended The Drama Studio in London, England. For a decade, he performed as part of the Stratford Festival. “The draw at Stratford is the chance to get to work on really great material,” he said. “It’s a long season so you have the chance to really spend time working on ideas.” Despite being an actor for several years, Persichini remains challenged. “As a living art, performances change over a period of time and it’s always fascinating to see that development,” he said. “There are too many things I still want to do to list them all.” Tickets range from $27 to $53 (including discounts for students, seniors and groups). There will be a Pay-What-You-Can 2:30 p.m. matinee on Saturday, Feb. 2. Call 416-531-1827 or visit www.tarragontheatre.com

Revue Cinema screens film on life of Frida Kahlo The Revue Cinema presents a special pay-what-you-can screening of the film Frida, Naturaleza Viva Saturday, Jan. 12 to coincide with the Art Gallery of Ontario’s (AGO) exhibit ‘Frida and Diego, Passion, Politics and Painting.’ Frida Khalo’s work and that of her renowned muralist husband Diego Rivera are on display at the AGO until Jan. 20. The movie screening has been made possible through the generosity of the Consulate General of Mexico in Toronto. The 1983 Mexican film, directed by Paul Leduc and starring Ofelia Medina in a remarkable portrayal of the artist Frida Kahlo, weaves together the memories, dreams and images that pass through Kahlo’s mind as she lies dying at age 47. The film will be shown Saturday, Jan. 12 at 11 a.m. Tickets are paywhat-you-can. The Revue Cinema is located at 400 Roncesvalles Ave.

Queen West filmmaker premieres unique subway series ERIN HATFIELD ehatfield@insidetoronto.com In the late 1970s, Queen Street West was alive with energy and activism, said filmmaker John Greyson. The gay rights liberation movement was strong and the arts community was open and inclusive. At that time a young Greyson moved to Queen West from London, Ontario, because he wanted to make art and come out as queer and this was the place to do it. “I always talk about Queen West as being my university for better or for worse,” Greyson said. “Making work and being part of the gay activist community right from the start shaped me and the work I was doing.” Greyson didn’t study film, in fact he didn’t even graduate from high school. But upon arriving in Toronto he joined west-end film cooperatives Trinity Square Video and Charles Street Video and later the Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto (LIFT), which Greyson said, to him, stands out as a model of what a cooperative should be, not just cheap equipment, but also community. “There was so much permission and generosity back in the 1970s and the stuff I wanted to learn wasn’t being taught at universities,” Greyson said. “I was really excited

Murder in Passing, written and directed by Queen West resident John Greyson, is the first-ever transmedia "whodunnit" series for commuters. The series, seen on TTC across the city, launched on Jan. 7 and runs until March 1.

by queer art and the new generation of gay artists making work about sexuality and that just wasn’t in the curriculum at OCAD or U of T or York, it was on the street.” It was through these co-ops, being on set, helping other people create their films and through his own mistakes that Greyson said he received his education in filmmaking. In 1991 he went to the Canadian Film Centre, which he said was important for him to make the jump into features and into a higher level of funding.

He is now a professor at York University and has obtained a master’s degree and is working on his PhD in the Drama Centre at the University of Toronto. “Once I finish the PhD I’m thinking of going back and getting my Grade 12,” he said with a chuckle. Greyson recalls working at Fuse Magazine in the 1980s, pre computers, and taking the typesetting to The Body Politic, a gay liberation magazine run by a collective. Greyson said the magazine was often under attack on freedom of speech issues, but at the same time was the centre of a

dynamic activist community. “The arts community really rallied around it, so you had this coming together of a very marginal, progressive, experimental arts scene and a radical gay liberation movement,” Greyson said. “And it all took place in a one-block radius.” It was energizing and had a tremendous influence on his entire career and award-winning films/ videos like Fig Trees, Lilies, and Zero Patience. “Who knew it was going to imprint so strongly,” Greyson said. His latest project, Murder in Passing, which he wrote and directed, is the first-ever transmedia ‘whodunnit’ series for commuters with silent 30-second episodes appearing daily on Toronto’s subway platform screens and online. Murder in Passing launched Jan. 7 and airs daily until March 1. The film-noir murder mystery continues his exploration of larger social issues and social critique. “That combination has stayed true, right up to this project where you have this collision of video art on the subway and issues around transit, bikes and SUVS, but equally important, debates around gender,” Greyson said. “The point of this project isn’t to provoke, it is to engage, so we are trying to reach viewers, not by shocking or alienating them, but engaging them and bring them

into this conversation around these issues of transit and gender.” Murder in Passing explores the murder of bike courier Mars Brito in Passing, B.C. and everyone in the town is a suspect. There are visual clues embedded within every episode as well as American Sign Language signs across the 40 episodes that together spell out another clue. There are opera fugues, with clues embedded, paired with each episode, which Greyson said are hugely important for citizen sleuths to pay mind to. Solve the murder before Detective Epicene does and win prizes. “The goal is that people will see it on the platform and be intrigued and go to the website,” he said. “There is a twitter feed and facebook updates.” Murder in Passing commissioned by Art for Commuters and Pattison Onestop, is a Future Cinema Lab/ Greyzone Production supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) and Canada Council for the Arts. The project will potentially reach one million people a day for 40 days. “As far as we know, it is the biggest the world has seen,” Greyson said, “No one has done a public serial narrative of this scale before.” Visit www.murderinpassing. com to watch episodes and explore clues.

Long-term plan needed for future of the Gardiner

oronto council must understand the future of the Gardiner Expressway is a significant consideration. The Gardiner’s place in Toronto’s transportation infrastructure is an issue that needs to go beyond next week’s budget deliberations. It can’t just habitually resurface when a piece of concrete falls from it. Council needs to identify a comprehensive plan. Council must move forward with the Environmental Assessment (EA) process that began under the previous administration exploring tearing down the Gardiner east of Jarvis Street. That EA was shelved, however, after the 2010 municipal election – despite no council order to do so. our view That the budget committee voted Tuesday to resume the Engineers EA, originally authorized in July 2008 at a cost of $7.69 mil- identify safety lion, is reason for optimism. Currently about $500 milconcerns lion is proposed for the roadway over the next 10 years. Engineers have raised significant concerns that the eastern portion’s safety will be compromised by the end of the decade should those repairs not be made. Those dollars are significant. Most recently, Toronto’s budget committee asked for a report on the pros and cons of selling or leasing the Gardiner. That, too, is an impactful proposal. There are important questions for council to consider. How should we expect our major roadways to operate? How do any of the proposals for the Gardiner fit in with other planned transportation improvements, such as light rail? The Gardiner is a large piece of Toronto’s existing transportation infrastructure. According to Waterfront Toronto figures from 2008, some 200,000 drivers use it daily west of the core. That number is 120,000 east of Jarvis. It’s a significant eastwest corridor, serving not only residents of the city, but the Greater Toronto Area. But in many respects this is the ultimate neighbourhood issue – one that has an impact beyond even the 14 Toronto neighbourhoods the roadway actually touches – from the Alderwood and Islington-City Centre West neighbourhoods in the west to South Riverdale in the east. The pressures of gridlock have far-reaching impacts – into all of our neighbourhoods. Council must gather the best information to confront that reality. newsroom

Ford’s everyman image survives

ayor Rob Ford was back in court this past Monday — this time sitting quietly in an Osgoode Hall courtroom as his lawyer Alan Lenczner made a final pitch for his job. Newspaper deadlines being what they are — by the time you read this, it is entirely possible that the three judge Divisional Court panel will have decided on Ford’s appeal of the conviction by Justice Charles Hackland. Monday was not so much about the future — but what has gone before. Being an appeal, there was no new evidence, no testimony, and a surfeit of arcane legal arguments, which was as it should be: Ford’s lawyer’s job was to dig into Hackland’s decision to convict Ford under the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act, and demonstrate whatever errors he might find. Lenczner took on another task, though: to present and recast the narrative of the mayor’s career on council in the kindest light possible. So when Ford spoke and voted on his own behalf over a recommendation

THE CITY

david nickle

to compel him to repay $3,150 in charitable donations to lobbyists, he did so, according to Lenczner, as “an honest man.” There was no subterfuge, nothing hidden. He simply had a flawed understanding of the way the Municipal Conflict of Interest Act applied to matters of personal accountability on council. It’s a narrative that seems to be an easy sell for a large number of Torontonians. Mayor Ford continues to poll well in spite of a great deal of evidence that suggests he shouldn’t. Quite apart from the February vote that led to Ford’s conviction, over the past two years the mayor has been accused of diverting his office staff to support his football coaching hobby, which he has also missed city meetings to attend. None of this came up at the appeals court, of

course, because none of this was before the court. So Lenczner could present an image of a mayor dedicated to openness and honesty, whose simple desire to help young people only occasionally affected his judgment. There was some indication that the narrative found some currency with the judges. Senior Justice Edward Then wondered aloud whether Ford might not have simply made an honest mistake. Clayton Ruby, the lawyer effectively prosecuting Ford on behalf of Torontonian Paul Magder, spent a good amount of time attempting to disabuse him of the notion. So in that sense, whatever the future holds for him in reality, Ford can take some comfort in the fact that the narrative he and his supporters crafted — of the stolid everyman, the only honest one at city hall — has at least survived the ordeal of his mayoralty. nDavid Nickle is The Villager’s city hall columnist.

To the editor: Re: ‘Teachers need to be appreciated for their hard work,’ Letters, Dec. 27. While letter writer Danion Beckford raises legitimate concerns regarding broken contract promises, it is only fair to mention that Premier Dalton McGuinty’s government has been more than fair to the teachers over the years. It seems somewhat duplicitous having teachers accept the many goodies doled out over the years and take strike action when the government takes long overdue action to rein in its spending. The excessive banking of sick days comes to mind as one such example. However, with the leadership race, I’m sure whatever measures have been undertaken will soon be rescinded. Where the government can be more easily faulted is the somewhat burlesque handling of finances. It hands out performance bonuses to civil service managers earlier in the year and then announces belt-tightening measures. Severance pay is given to employees moving to other jobs. The conversion to alternative energy has been a costly and largely needless fiasco. At the Ministry of Health, as evidenced by Ornge, eHealth and monies given to the regional health centres, it seems as if little if any financial oversight exists. Last, and certainly not least, there was the decision to move the two power plants to save Liberal seats in the last election. Finance Minister Dwight Duncan may try to portray himself as the tough nononsense gatekeeper of the public purse, but the facts show differently. A more diligent minister of finance would be a welcome addition to the next announced cabinet. John Winegarden

Taxpayers’ group favours using casino money to fund subways RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com Hundreds of millions of dollars for subway expansion are at stake should Toronto City Council vote against building a casino, according to a report released by a local taxpayers group. The report by the Toronto Taxpayers Coalition calls on council to approve a casino for the city which would generate $400-million annually – enough to pay for one new subway station and one kilometre of track every year. Coalition spokesperson Mathew McGuire said the significant amount of money for new transit could be attained through hosting fees – estimated at $50 to $100-million – plus revenues gained from licensed gaming tables in restaurants and bars and through expanded online gaming. “You can have $400 million in new revenue every year from a casino to build subways without raising taxes

one dime,” said McGuire, president of the coalition. City council, which will vote on the issue this spring, can ensure maximum revenues by leveraging the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation’s (OLG) stated preference for Toronto as the location for a new casino, said McGuire. “OLG wants a casino in Toronto and it will pay hosting fees to represent that,” he said. “Toronto can capitalize on our influence to negotiate for a large fee.” But while the report, released Jan. 5, extols the benefits of a potential casino, it’s short of data showing how it came up with the $400-million figure. best-case scenario McGuire called the number a “best-case scenario” that takes into account certain variables such as the size and future location of a casino. He said a team of interns had looked into casino revenues,

but was not able to provide specific sources they contacted through the course of their research. The report concerned Toronto-Danforth Councillor Mary Fragedakis, a casino opponent, who said the estimates presented by the coalition are not in line with the current proposal. “The formula for the OLG is to give three per cent as a hosting fee,” said Fragedakis. “That’s significantly less than whatever numbers they’re throwing out there.” She said any potential monetary benefits from a casino would be offset by a rise in crime and other social ills. “If the crime that is attached in having casinos in cities is anything to go by, we could presumably be spending more on policing,” she said. The city will hold several public consultations for the casino question and is also giving residents the opportunity to offer online feedback until Jan. 25. For more information visit www.toronto.ca

Film premiered at 2011 Toronto International Film Festival >>>from page 1 they hid out on Roncesvalles.” The gang also robbed a bank on Roncesvalles and two of the members shot and killed a police officer at College and Lansdowne, just at the edge of the neighbourhood. The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2011. In the interview with the director, Weinberg said they discuss the historical discrepancies and his decision to not clearly identify where the movie is set.

The film was shot in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., which Weinberg said looks similar to what Toronto looked like in the 1950s. “He talks about how his mother remembers the hanging of some of the members of the gang in the 1950s,” Weinberg said. “And capital punishment was very controversial and there were people in vigil protesting the hanging.” That taped interview will be followed by a screening of Eddie Boyd: Citizen Gangster and a question and answer session about the

Roncesvalles connection to the gang with author Nate Hendley, author of Edwin Alonzo Boyd: The Life and Crimes of Canada’s Master Bank Robber. “There are some questions of historical accuracy and that’s what the whole discussion will be about,” Weinberg said. The screening and talk take place at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 15 at the Revue Cinema, 400 Roncesvalles Ave. Tickets are $10 for members of the Revue and $13 for non-members.

Chair of the Roncesvalles Village Historical Society, Paul Weinberg, stands just east of the Roncesvalles bank robbed by the Boyd Gang in the 1950s. The society will present a screening and discussion about the movie Citizen Gangster and the gang's connection to the area. Staff photo/ERIN HATFIELD
