Junction SATISFYING SLURP residents relieved new build isn’t condos LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com Much to the relief of several local residents and the city councillor, a modest townhouse development – not a condominium tower – is being proposed for the corner of Dundas Street West and Gilmour Avenue.

At a recent pre-applicaProposal tion meeting that attracted for nine, as many as three-storey 2 0 n e a r by residents to townhomes the Annette still in the Recreation works Centre, the majority of those who attended agreed the possible addition to the neighbourhood was a good one.

“Ninety-nine per cent was positive feedback,” ParkdaleHigh Park Councillor Sarah Doucette told The Villager. “I think it’s great, a great idea. I’m absolutely thrilled that someone’s not coming in with a proposal for a monstrosity.”

It is still early days in the process. Developer Kevin Wassermuhl of Portal Realty Corp. said a proposal is in the works and will be submitted to the city in the near future. >>>DEVELOPER, page 12

UP’s random bells keeping residents up at night RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com When it comes to the Union Pearson (UP) Express, Tom Hasiak is full of praise for the new rapid transportation service connecting downtown with

Toronto Pearson airport – with one exception.

“It’s a great new economic engine going through the neighbourhood,” says Hasiak of UP. “Except for the ringing bells going through the neighbourhood.”

Since the service launched in early June, Hasiak, board chair of the Glenlake condominium located at 2495 Dundas Ave. W., has received complaints from residents due to the abrasive train bells which UP operators sound while approaching or

leaving UP’s Bloor stop located almost adjacent to the building.

The bells ring approximately every seven-and-a-half minutes from 5 a.m. until after two in the morning seven days a week >>>METROLINX, page 7

Amateur triathletes see how the experts do it Fans line the streets to see women’s triathlon LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com

The young winners, parents and judges at the annual Baby Contest Saturday.

Canadian pride was on full display during the Triathlon Women’s Final at Ontario Place West Channel, early Saturday morning.

Spectators of all ages were decked out in red and white, waving Canadian flags, their faces painted with symbols of patriotism.

The women took their mark, diving into Lake Ontario shortly after 8:30 a.m.

Scott Simpson, a St. Clair Avenue and Christie Streetarea resident, was among those who filled the stands overlooking the water. A triathlete himself, he said he bought tickets for the women’s event when the men’s triathlon sold out.

“Last year, I did 13 triathlons,” Simpson said, adding he medalled in 10; winning gold in his age category in four.

Simpson, who competed in his first triathlon in 1998, said he was especially cheering for veteran triathlete and Olympian Paula Findlay.

The one-time pack-aday smoker said triathlons transformed his life. Before taking up the sport, he was only a “sporadic jogger,” who commuted to work on his bicycle, but didn’t know how to swim.

Meanwhile, spectator Kiley Towers said she was taking in the triathlon, inspired in

Cute babies steal the spotlight The Bloor West Village Business Improvement Area (BIA) annual Summer Kids Festival, a free event for the entire family, included a baby contest hosted by Metroland Media Toronto.

The contest featured lots of cute babies and toddlers, acknowledged for their smiles, outfit and laughter.

Festival-goers took in the contest on the main stage at Windermere Avenue and Bloor Street West.

In the newborn to six months category, Zane Dlouhy Tomaszewski was awarded for his smile, Nicolai Trifoli for his outfit and Connor Zawarynski for his laugh.

In the six months to one-

year category, Jossalin Delia Tyndorf was recognized for her smile, Bhuvik Sethi for outfit and Derek Cooney for laughter.

Lyla Trifoli, who was in the one-year to 18-months category, was awarded for her smile, Majorca Konopka for outfit and Ada Barry for her laugh.

part, by her brother-in-law, who is a coach for Triathlon Canada.

Lynda Harry wanted to watch the triathlon women’s final because her daughters were triathletes growing up in Kincardin.

“Everyone’s so upbeat and positive,” Harry, a South Hampton, Ont. resident, said of the crowd and surrounding atmosphere.

The athletes began en masse with the 1,500 metre swim, then transitioned out of their wet suits to complete in a 40-kilometre bike ride, followed by a 10-kilometre

run. The triathlon is a test of endurance and stamina. The athlete to cross the finish line first, wins.

The crowd of spectators was enthusiastic, yet polite, cheering on not only the Canadian triathletes, including Joanna Brown, Findlay and Ellen Pennock, but every athlete. In the end, it was Chile’s Barbara Riveros, who captured the gold medal. Mexico took silver and Bermuda took bronze.

Canada placed sixth.

hen a gun falls into the hands of a child or a teen, the blame for it cannot be placed on one person.

It’s a community’s collective failure to provide opportunities, outreach and ongoing dialogue for these youth that allows gun culture to take root around them.

For there to be a meaningful change, it has to be more than just the police coming to the door and patrolling the streets. There needs to be change fostered from within these neighbourhoods, but it has to happen in tangent with support from those on the who may have the means our view outside to help keep up the momentum.

The Jamestown community in Collectively north Etobicoke is mourning the loss of 14-year-old Lecent Ross, we can do who died from a gunshot wound in a friend’s home last week. Though something police continue to investigate and have not laid charges, nor said who fired the gun, they did say the weapon was an illegal, semi-automatic handgun – a .40-calibre Smith & Wesson. Lecent was the third resident on this particular street to be killed by a gun in the past two years.

Pastor Allan Bowen, of Abundant Life Assembly in north Etobicoke, told Metroland Media Toronto his community needs saving from drugs, guns and gangs.

He says they need a champion to come forward to change the community’s fate.

And while the police have their obvious role in eradicating crime from these areas, there are other players that need to come to the table.

We, the media, need to keep the spotlight on these issues and these communities. It defeats the purpose of serving the broader, public good when we swoop in on tragedy and fly out at the first sniff of the next breaking news story.

Politicians can help push for change within government. They can secure funding for community investment and investment in at-risk youth.

But their actions rely significantly on the will of the people. And it’s people who live outside of these neighbourhoods who need to start caring. There are world issues that get more support than the problems happening in our own backyard. This is our city’s problem and these people need our support.

column

The live presser is just part of the story

A

n epiphany came upon the city hall press gallery on Tuesday, after Scarborough Agincourt Councillor Jim Karygiannis finished a morning news conference offering a scaremongering interpretation of the Highway Traffic Act. It was not that Karygiannis was being irresponsible when he warned Torontonians and visitors that they could be fined up to $20,000 for booking an Uber ride. He was being irresponsible, of course, selectively reading sub-clauses from the Act to conflate the responsibility of a customer with that of a driver and dispatcher.

It was straightforward work for journalists at the event to dismantle that fallacy.

Had Karygiannis consulted a lawyer in coming to this position?

He had not.

Had he spoken with the police about the likelihood

david nickle the city of such charges being laid against passengers booking a ride with the Uber app?

He had written them but not heard back.

Had he heard of anyone in any jurisdiction being charged for calling an Uber cab? No. The epiphany didn’t really have much to do with Karygiannis.

It had to do with us.

Because the fact is that while the councillor and former Liberal MP was twisting facts, cameras were rolling – and his words were going out live on CP24, to dental office waiting rooms and airport lounges across the Greater Toronto Area. And before anyone got a chance to ask any questions – including CP24’s own journalists – Karygiannis had the floor.

People who were called in to see the hygienist before questions began might have come away thinking this imaginative scare tactic was a real thing.

And that is the epiphany: the institutionalization of live-TV coverage of press events has made it easier than ever for demagoguery to take hold. The Ford brothers used live television news conferences to great effect – shouting down reporters who challenged assertions that were flat-out and selfevidently wrong.

Former Councillor Doug Ford was a master at this live-TV obfustication – often picking out a particular journalist by name, and insisting that their questions were inspired by personal animosity to his poor brother Mayor Ford. One wonders how much of Ford Nation is comprised of people waiting to get the keys to their car from the muffler shop,

watching half or two-thirds of these oh-so-distorted spectacles?

Karygiannis’ bit of mischief will likely have a similar but smaller effect — driving uninformed visitors and inattentive Torontonians from Uber cars to the waiting arms of Toronto’s licensed taxi drivers, a group that has enjoyed the unwavering support of Karygiannis at committee and council this term.

Others, who read newspapers, watch news conferences to the end and partake of the good, balanced work that broadcast journalists do piecing the story together for newscasts, won’t be so easily fooled.

But really, that’s just damage control. The medium itself has already delivered its message.

HIGH PARK NISSAN 3275 DUNDAS STREET WEST, TORONTO TEL: (416) 762-7537

Metrolinx says trains a federal matter, looking into solutions >>>from page 1 according to Hasiak and it’s meant disruptions for the residents of Glenlake, particularly those whose units face the tracks.

“They were noticing constant ringing waking them up until three in the morning,” said Hasiak who invited The Villager this week to visit the building and witness first-hand the disruptive nature of the bells.

“I would say it’s like an oldfashioned alarm clock going off,” he said. “It’s something which is intended to wake you up, a continuous ‘dinging’ sound as though a hammer were hitting a bell.”

Des McComish, chair of the West Bend Community Association said he sent a complaint to Metrolinx, which operates the UP service, on behalf of the Glenlake residents in late June. He soon received a response from community relations manager Manuel Pedrosa explaining the bells

were a federally regulated matter and Metrolinx was reviewing its options.

“We appreciate that this type of safety signalling in the later evening hours may be of concern to many of our neighbours. We are in the process of reviewing the federal regulations to see if there is anything we can do,” Pedrosa wrote in an email dated June 29 which McComish later forwarded to The Villager.

Pedrosa did not respond to a request for comment from The Villager.

What’s particularly aggravating to residents is the arbitrary nature of the bells.

On Monday, July 13 from about 7 until nearly 9 p.m. several UP trains headed north to Pearson or south to Union Station were spotted at the Bloor stop by this reporter, and there seemed to be no consistent length of time the bells were ringing.

Of the nine UP trains witnessed, the longest interval

SAVING OUR CUSTOMERS THE COST OF PACKAGING SINCE 1987!

of the bells sounding lasted about a minute. There were much shorter instances as well, from 12 to 15 seconds in length.

Three trains didn’t appear to make use of the bells at all.

After 10 p.m. Hasiak reported hearing five more trains and said the pattern of the bells was a little more consistent than early in the evening.

“In general, the trains going north from Bloor Station stopped ringing their bells... with the exception of one which stopped bell ringing by the time it passed below the Wallace Ave. foot bridge,” said Hasiak over email. “The southbound trains coming from north of Dupont Street, however, were quite consistent in that they all started bell ringing... 300 metres before the station – approximately, where the signal lights are just north of the Wallace Ave. foot bridge.”

After a string of open houses that didn’t quite meet your expectations, you’ve finally found the house you want to make your home. Don’t picture yourself in it yet; you still need to make an offer the seller will accept. Completing the sale is much easier when you’ve got a Realtor on your side.

When it comes to making an offer, a Realtor will have market information, such as selling prices of homes in the area. With this information, he or she will be able to tell you if the house is overvalued or undervalued, and what an appropriate offer would be. A Realtor can prepare the offer and walk you through all of the terms you may not know, such as the purchase price, the deposit, which chattels and fixtures are included, as well as the completion date, when you can move in.

On the other side of the deal, Realtors help sellers determine the price to put their home on the market. Realtors will supply their clients with all the information to come up with an ideal selling point and once the offers come in, the Realtor will help devise a negotiation strategy based on market supply, demand and the conditions stated in the offer. In either situation, having a Realtor on your side, who is trained in negotiating, is the best strategy to get the deal you’re looking for.

Not only are Realtors trained in negotiating, as

part of the Ontario Real Estate Association, real estate agents and Realtors must take courses in real property law. A Realtor will know the difference between owning a single-family home versus a condominium. For example, a condo owner is called a “strata title� meaning you own not only your condo unit, but also have shared ownership in and around the building.

A Realtor can also obtain the prospectus, which provides details of the financial history, unit entitlement, parking and more prior to making the purchase. Realtors will also help you look into bylaws to determine if you can rent your property or turn your single-family home into an income property.

Once the offer is agreed upon and signed by both the buyer and seller, it becomes a binding and enforceable contract, which is where your Realtor’s legal knowledge comes in. If either party breaks any of their promises negotiated in the contract, the other party may take legal action.

Should an unforeseen event take place, a Realtor will be insured against an impending lawsuit.

When it comes to buying and selling, having a Realtor on your side helps the paperwork, from making the offer to completing the sale, go smoothly.

Developer attracted to ‘up and coming’ Junction >>>from page 1 The plan is for the construction of nine, three-storey townhouses averaging just under 1,500 square feet, with parking at grade accessed from Gilmour Avenue and the laneway. The property is now home to the 1 Plus 2 Pizza & Wings restaurant.

“We liked the Junction. It’s up and coming. We like the way it’s situated in the city with good access to downtown by transit,” Wassermuhl said of the property’s appeal. “It’s very livable.”

The proposal for site plan

approval is in the works, he said. Each townhouse includes a kitchen and living room and two levels of bedrooms. The piece de resistance is the rooftop terrace, Wassermuhl said, adding the reception towards the project at the public meeting was positive.

“These are high-quality units,” he said.

Wassermuhl said he would like approvals in place before any marketing materials or plans are released.

Yet, Dundas Street West resident Jan Naciejowki, said he is anxious to see those plans. He’s worried about the projBest Buy CORRECTION NOTICE ect’s height and density.

Naciejowski said he’s upset he did not receive any notice of the public meeting as well.

He said he’s wondering just how many additional people the project will bring to the community.

“The parking on Gilmour Avenue will disappear,” he said.

Meanwhile, Doucette called the proposal “a nice addition to the neighbourhood.”

“I’m really happy about the pre-application meeting,” she said. The councillor said she encourages any developer looking to build in her ward to host a pre-application meeting to get a feel for the neighbourhood. Not all developers agree to host a public meeting, she said.

Uber offers commuters a carpooling service during the Pan Am Games Uber has launched a carpooling service in Toronto to take advantage of projected congestion levels during the Pan Am Games.

Until July 26, UberPool allows users of its contentious UberX ride-share service to split fare costs with a fellow customer headed in the same direction.

Uber is also promising the carpooling option will make use of the temporary HOV lanes installed for the Games on major roadways. That will not be music to the ears of Toronto taxi drivers, who’ve opposed Uber’s operations from the start.

PETITION started for BLOOR BIKE LANES W i t h To r o n t o c o u n c i l endorsing the expansion of bike lanes on Adelaide and Richmond streets, attention from the city’s cycling community has shifted to Bloor Street.

The street has long been an aspiration for cycling activists looking for a major east-west

w

But that hasn’t stopped 860 people from signing a CycleTO petition calling for a pilot lane on Bloor by 2016, and for the street to be included within the city’s 10-year framework for cycling.

WIND mobile users will now be able to use their phones at every TTC station on the U subway Loop.

The company became the first – and so far only – mobile provider to sign up to provide cellular access in the subway system. Now with this week’s announcement, cellphone reception will be

available within 18 downtown stations, though not on the trains themselves.

BAI Canada recently announced it will expand TConnect subway WiFi access to both Bathurst and Sherbourne stations following the Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. your electric car at IKEA wcharge

IKEA will install electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at its Canadian stores.

The move is expected to take place by the end of August and two stations will be available per store, the company announced last week in a statement.

“A typical visit to an IKEA store gives enough time for an EV driver to ‘top-up’ their battery, enhancing their travel range and preventing ‘range anxiety,’” the statement reads.
