City of Toronto Parks, Forestry and Recreation staff member Clarissa Jewell removes a Japanese knotweed, a tall bamboo-like invasive plant, from High Park.

LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com Whether on land or in the water, there are a number of species that are wreaking havoc on their surrounding environment and threatening the creatures and plants whose habitat they overtake. They are bullies infiltrating Toronto’s ravines, prairies, wooded areas and waterways, keeping the city’s small, but ardent Parks, Forestry and

Recreation staff, and such conservation organizations as the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH), on their toes staving off these alien pests. There are four different species of Asian carp – bighead, silver, grass and black – that OFAH’s invading species awareness program, in collaboration with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, and Fisheries and Oceans Canada, are keeping tabs on, preventing

these invaders from establishing populations in the Great Lakes. “They can cause quite a bit of danger,” said Sarah Chadwick, the invasive species spokesperson for the OFAH. “There are no established populations in the Great Lakes, and we want to keep it that way.” However, there have been reported sightings of Asian carp as close to home as Lake Ontario, Chadwick added. Asian carp have the capability

to destroy aquatic ecosystems while negatively impacting the environment and economy. “They could damage sport and commercial fishing in Ontario, which brings in millions of dollars,” Chadwick said. Asian carp consume as much as 40 per cent of their body weight daily leaving little food for native fish to eat, reproduce extremely quickly enabling them to dominate habitats and >>>WETLANDS, page 3

Pastor works to improve building, attendance LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com A new day has dawned for parishioners at St. Paul the Apostle Parish. Under the guidance of a new pastor, Father Manuel Parnis, the Dundas Street West and Runnymede Road-area Roman Catholic church, a fixture in the neighbourhood since 1950, has been undergoing some crucial maintenance and rejuvenation projects. The congregation is in the midst of a fundraising campaign in order to fix some leaky roofs. The church hall and the ceiling of the chapel inside the building are in desperate need of reconstruction. Since his arrival eight months ago, Parnis has not only worked to improve the physical building, but to restore the congregation’s dwindling attendance. “The Maltese community itself is a dying breed,” said Parnis, who spent 13 years ministering in Peru before arriving in Toronto to take the helm of St. Paul’s. “We’ve tried our best to organize.” >>>CHURCH, page 12

ADVERTORIAL

Before You Spend Thousands on a New Roof… The Integrity Roof System

What Risks Do You Face? According to the Better Business Bureau, which tracks the ‘reputable’ roofing companies, roofing is at or near the top of the list for customer enquiries and complaints for the last five years in a row. Homeowners with limited experience in roof replacement rely on the roofing contractor to recommend the proper specifications. This process becomes confusing because there is no regulation in the industry, and each contractor recommends a different job. What you should know about roof surface or roof deck preparation: The roof deck is the structural surface over which your roofing materials are applied. All roof boards and/or plywood must be fastened securely to the rafters, and damaged or rotten wood must be replaced. Your attic should be inspected before the work starts to uncover potential problems. A bad roof surface allows the nails to push up through the shingles, causing leaks. What you should know about underlayment: A complete underlay system should be applied before your shingles are installed. There are two types of roofing underlay, waterproof and water resistant. Waterproof underlay is needed in areas most vulnerable to leaks: the eaves edge of the roof; in valleys, at dormer sides, around chimneys and around skylights. Water resistant underlay, often called “tar paper”, is needed on the remaining roof area. Water resistant underlay protects the roof surface in a storm situation where a few shingles blow off, but cannot be replaced immediately. What you should know about ventilation: Improper attic venting is a common cause of early shingle failure, and your product warranty requires that your attic have proper ventilation. Venting consists of intake and exhaust. To facilitate proper air flow, your attic needs intake vents located in the overhang and exhaust vents at the roof peak. A balanced venting system is required; otherwise air will be pulled from your house. An inspection of your attic is essential to present appropriate and complete venting solutions. What you should know about shingle quality: All shingles are not the same. Estimators should include at least three grades of shingles and inform you of the real expected shingle life. In addition to their aesthetic appeal, better quality shingles often provide you with the

special report

Wetlands, forests, birds at risk >>>from page 1 increase the murkiness of the water making it difficult for native fish to find food. Grass carp specifically destroy wetlands that are key habitats for native species. “It’s important to educate the public on what they look like,” Chadwick said. “Our mandate is education and awareness.” Bighead and silver carp have spread the most aggressively through the U.S. and pose the greatest threat to the Great Lakes. The bighead can be identified by its small scales with dark blotches, short dorsal fin and eyes below the centre of its body; the silver carp has small, shiny scales; the black carp has large dark scales in a crosshatched pattern, and a pointed snout; the grass carp also has a short dorsal fin, and large, dark crosshatched scale pattern. Brought to North America in the 1960s and ‘70s, Asian carp are often mistaken for common carp, Chadwick said. Unlike Asian carp, the common carp has a long dorsal fin and two barbels (slender, whisker-like sensory organ at the mouth). Fisheries and Oceans Canada continues to monitor for the presence of Asian carp. “We’ve had lots of calls from the public. People are keen to help,” spokesperson Becky Cudmore said. There is a reason why these species are deemed invasive. They’re highly adaptable and can

tolerate a variety of habitat conditions. Parks and forestry staff are currently battling the dog-strangling vine. Although it is not new to Toronto – it arrived from Eastern Ukraine and Southern Russia in the 1900s – the herbaceous vine invades

“

They could damage sport and commercial fishing in Ontario, which brings in millions of dollars. – Sarah chadwick, on asian carp

meadows and forest edges. “It prefers open spaces,” said Cara Webster, acting supervisor of tree nursery and natural resource management within Parks, Forestry and Recreation. “It grows in vine form, twining small trees and shrubs. It chokes them out. If we don’t keep up on control, it will overtake newly planted species.” It grows in large patches, outcompeting other species, Webster said, adding it poses a threat to native species like the black oak savannah in High Park. It can impact recreation areas because once it establishes a huge colony, “you can’t walk through it,” Webster said. Grassland birds, such as the Bobolink meadowlark, are particularly at risk. That’s because the vine alters their habitat preventing them from nesting. Toronto first began controlling the vine in the late 1990s when staff and volunteers

would manually remove it. The challenge is that the dog-strangling vine has a very deep root system. “Now, we use a method of applying a herbicide by wiping it on with a sponge. That way, it doesn’t hurt other species,” Webster said. “It’s very widespread in Toronto. It’s in every watershed and transportation corridor.” Agriculture Canada has introduced a biological control moth, a natural predator, which eats the leaves on the vine, as a method of control because the dog-strangling vine began impacting agriculture. The vine is not the only menace Toronto is fighting. The Japanese knotweed, a five- to six-feet tall bamboo-like plant that out competes other vegetation, can be found along streams and at the bottom of ravines. It spreads by its roots travelling down streams, Webster said. It blocks access to water, reducing all other native vegetation. Green frogs, native to Ontario, are being displaced because they are losing their habitat. “Every ravine in Toronto has a little bit of it,” she said. Control methods include cutting it down twice a season and using herbicide on the root system. “When people don’t stay on trail systems, they’re spreading species,” Webster said.

Celebrate Simcoe Day by having fun in Toronto

WRitE uS

he coming long weekend is known as Simcoe Day and now is a good time to learn a little bit more about Upper Canada’s first lieutenantgovernor and the founder of our city. John Graves Simcoe is honoured across the province with a lake, county and more streets than we could ever mention. But it is only Toronto that celebrates the first Monday in August as Simcoe Day. The August long weekend holiday has many other names across Ontario and Canada ranging from the fairly bland civic holiday to the City of Vaughan’s Benjamin Vaughan Day and the City of Ottawa’s Colonel By Day. Simcoe, though, deserves a special place in the hearts of Torontonians. Named Upper Canada’s lieutenant governor in 1791, he founded York, which later became Toronto as the capital city, and also had a key role in naming Scarborough OuR ViEW because the bluffs reminded his wife Elizabeth of Scarborough, Simcoe has England. Though only lieutenant goverspecial place nor until 1796, his accomplishwere many, including in our hearts ments taking a strong stand against slavery and banning it in Upper Canada years before it was abolished across the entire British Empire. He also laid out Toronto’s famous grid street system of north-south and eastwest roads, earning the thanks to this day of those travelling through and around the city. So how do we celebrate him some 230 years after his time as lieutenant governor ended? Well, like all long weekends in Toronto, we have fun. There’s numerous events set for our city this weekend, many drawing huge crowds of both local residents and tourists. There’s the Toronto Caribbean Carnival on this weekend, which features the King and Queen competition Thursday night at Lamport Stadium and then the Grand Parade Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. at Lake Shore Boulevard and Exhibition Place. Also, there’s the 15th annual Scarborough Rotary Ribfest from Friday through to Monday at Thomson Park and the Veld Music Festival at Downsview Park Saturday and Sunday. And if you’d like to step back to a time closer to Simcoe’s, you can take part in Simcoe Day activities Monday at Fort York. Whatever you do, have fun and stay safe whether you are in the city, travelling the highways or enjoying Ontario’s lakes and wilderness. newsroom ph:

column

Michael Ford continues family’s political dynasty What with all the sound and fury south of the border Monday night as Democratic Party conventioneers girded their loins for what could be a worldchanging political battle royale with the Trump family, it would be easy to have missed the quiet, civilized affair that ushered the late Rob Ford’s nephew Michael into that family’s office at Toronto City Hall. America may have a stark choice ahead of it – but the voters in Ward 2 (Etobicoke North) made their choice a long time ago, and on July 25 they simply confirmed it. The Ford family – first the late Rob Ford, then his brother Doug Ford, and now Michael – are the dynasty of choice for Toronto’s northwest. Nothing, not even Rob Ford’s toxic, drug-andalcohol-fuelled meltdown during his single term as mayor, seems to be able to shake that loyalty. And so it comes to pass

david nickle the city that Toronto Council has a new member, maybe not the same but quite similar to the last two members, in Michael Ford, the 22-yearold son of Rob and Doug’s sister Kathy. By all accounts, Michael Ford is a bit different than his uncles politically, although it is early to say: he hadn’t yet completed a single term as a school trustee before Rob Ford’s death necessitated his candidacy in the Ward 2 byelection. He has developed a reputation in that time as a consensus-builder, curious and prone to evidencebased decision-making. He is said to admire Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. If this is so, it will be a relief to Mayor John Tory, who also seems to admire Trudeau.

Since Rob Ford’s death earlier this year, Tory has governed without a real critic on the right. If the Ford family had sent Doug Ford back into the Ward 2 trenches, Tory would have been faced with having not only a critic, but also his most formidable foe in the 2014 municipal election. It is possible that Michael Ford will grow into that role. On election night, Michael Ford’s grandmother Diane opined that he might one day follow in his uncle’s footsteps and become mayor himself. But it will be a while, likely, before the new councillor for Ward 2 moves into that part of the Ford brand, because so far he’ll be doing the work that established the family in Etobicoke to begin with and has endeared them all to those constituents: which is to say, answering phone calls, showing up at doorsteps, solving small problems definitively and

optionally, dealing with large problems at a policy level. Michael Ford’s Uncle Rob treated that last element of the brand extremely optionally. Even as mayor, he paid policy scant attention – focussing on keeping taxes low, pointing out waste and gathering political capital as much from the votes he lost at council as the ones that he won. There seems to be hope that Michael Ford will be different in that regard, and examine the needs of his constituents collectively as well as individually. Because let’s face it: the voters of Ward 2 have collectively done much to elevate three generations of Fords to public office. It will be interesting to see how the latest generation repays that loyalty.

TTC investigates harassment The TTC is looking into allegations made on social media of a sexual harassment incident on a subway train. Jamie Leigh Baker’s accounting of the incident has been shared over 4,500 times since it was posted on Facebook on July 22. She claims, while taking a Bloor-Danforth train west to Islington, a man harassed her and another woman, at one point placing his hand in her lap. When she objected, two separate men leapt to the alleged harasser’s defence, claiming she was “making up stories.” Baker writes the men continued to berate her, until she activated the emergency alarm to summon authorities. Spokesperson Brad Ross said the TTC is investigating the incident, and he has personally reached out to Baker. hurt In COLLISIOn WIth pOLICe Car wman

>>>from page 1 Part of this effort involves establishing a museum of Maltese and St. Paul’s parish artifacts, including photographs, paintings and chasubles – the robes pastors wear while celebrating mass, among many other pieces. “We have a beautiful collection of Maltese stamps and old coins dating back hundreds of years,” Parnis said as he uncovered glass cases full of all sorts of treasures. “It’s a pity no one knows it’s here.” The goal is to acquire even more cases to exhibit the artifacts as part of the museum. “These are our roots,” Parnis said, adding he would like to screen films about Malta not only for the general public, but also for school children, and to host presentations about Maltese culture and the like, as part of the museum. “One of our targets is to keep Maltese ideology strong, but I don’t want to exclude anybody. We are open to everyone. The mission of this parish is inclusivity.” The initial goal was to have the museum ready for the public by early September to coincide with the new school year, but, Parnis said, this deadline has been pushed back due to his travelling back to Peru and then to Malta. Parnis will celebrate his installation service, a special

church service for a newly appointed pastor, in October, followed by the Parish’s 86th anniversary Oct. 30. Additions to the sanctuary have also been made since Parnis’ arrival. Beside the pulpit is a chapel dedicated to the ‘blessed virgin’ Our Lady of Ta’ Pinu. As the congregation grows and changes, there is a need to ensure the building is acces-

sible for everyone. While there is a chairlift along stairwells to each level of the church, there is a need for accessible washrooms. Funding will go toward installing three new ones. The church is at 3224 Dundas St. W.
