the Old Mill Community Association, the Swansea Area Ratepayers Association (SARA) and the High Park Residents Association, only found out about the Jan. 6 hearing early this month while the city received its notice in September. “It’s left us behind the eight-ball,” the BWVRA’s Steve Dewdney told The Villager. “We want to make a decent showing. We want to get going as quickly as we can.” The community has retained a lawyer and would like to hire a planner and ideally a traffic expert as well. “The city has agreed with the community: the development >>>condo, page 18

Parent workshop being held Nov. 26 LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com Being a teenager in today’s society is not for the faint of heart; parenting a high schooler can be just as tricky. Humberside Collegiate Institute’s parent advisory council hopes to be a support to both parents and their teens as they navigate adolescence. The council is hosting a parent information night titled ‘Keep Your Teens Healthy and Confident’ Wednesday, Nov. 26 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the school’s Lismar Hall, 280 Quebec Ave. “The pressures that are out there, especially from the social network, are non-stop,” said council co-chair Lisa Strucken. The talk will help parents whose teens are dealing with such challenges as peer pressure, cliques, bullying and high-risk behaviour such as drinking and drug use. The event will be facilitated by the Parenting Network’s Doone Estey, a certified parent educator

and parenting expert. She is coauthor of the book ‘Raising Great Parents, How to be the Parent Your Kids Need You to Be,’ and has raised four children. Estey teaches as many as 10 parenting courses a year at such institutions as Upper Canada College, Royal St. George’s College and North Toronto Collegiate. The stronger relationship you have with your teen, the likelihood he or she will be able to make smarter choices, said Strucken, whose two older children have graduated from Humberside and whose youngest still attends. The information talk was made possible by a Ministry of Education grant for use as an education proponent for parents, said advisory council co-chair Debra Bettio. The event will be interactive with lots of opportunity for questions. Anyone is welcome to attend. Admission is free.

Policies in need of consistency I

t’s been 16 years since six municipalities were formed into the City of Toronto. And yet, more than a decade and a half after amalgamation, Toronto is still dealing with numerous policy discrepancies, bylaw inconsistencies and service disparities in its various neighbourhoods. Rules governing anything from snow removal to mechanical leaf collection to rooming house bylaws can be markedly different depending on what area of the city you live in. It’s completely understandable why York SouthWeston Councillor Frances Nunziata wants to approach the budget committee to explore extending mechanical leaf collection to all parts of the city – including her ward. Currently, the service is only available in certain pockets of Etobicoke, Scarborough and a small part of York. How is it fair that residences mere blocks away in the same city can our view receive disproportionate levels service? Time to tidy up of It’s reasonable to expect there to be a transition period from discrepancies, such a complicated process as disparities the megacity amalgamation was. But now, in 2014, we’re into the sixth term of Toronto council in its current format. It’s past time to tidy this up. In the coming term, Toronto’s new council must make a sincere effort to build more consistent policy throughout the city – one that reflects a more unified entity that is Toronto. Councillors must understand there will be differences between putting forth their priorities from their constituents and looking at those priorities through a city-wide lens. Governing a city with the size, complexity and diversity of Toronto is a challenging task. But a city that has more consistency in its policies can take pride in a more equitable distribution of services and still respect the unique characteristics of its 140 neighbourhoods. Providing equal access to the benefits that come with being a resident of this city does nothing to change those valuable characteristics. The effects of amalgamation were felt strongly when it happened in 1998. The effects of amalgamation are still a hurdle today in this city. They will continue to be a hurdle as long as we fail to view Toronto as one unified entity. A more unified Toronto is a stronger Toronto. The sooner the city unshackles itself from a hodgepodge of policies the sooner it will be prepared to deal with present challenges.

Polite revolution against Ford turns one

year ago this week (and this day, as I write this on Tuesday) Toronto council did a very bold, and also quite fearful thing. In a meeting specially called for the purpose, council voted to dethrone the mayor of the day, and select a new leader from among their own. It is the closest a government in this city has come to open revolt – and one might hope, the closest it will ever come to happening again. Looking back over the past year, it’s fair to say Toronto’s experiment with revolution has been at least a measured success. Part of that may be that the roots of this particular revolution dovetailed so well with our national identity. Not so much a Quiet Revolution, it was a Polite Revolution against a Fordian tyranny of Bad Behaviour. Mayor Rob Ford and

david nickle the city his brother Doug perhaps unwittingly stoked that revolution during the meeting where council cut the mayor’s budget and stripped him of his powers, hollering at audience members, telling sex jokes and at one point knocking councillor Pam McConnell to the ground without so much as an excuse-me-ma’am. Norm Kelly was a true Father of the Revolution as he embraced his enhanced role as deputy (and defacto) mayor. He visited his shell-shocked council colleagues one by one, said his please-and-thank-yous, and even as the Mayorin-Exile’s spiralling drama continued in the public corridors outside their offices and during parts of the monthly council meetings. For the most part, coun-

cil managed to politely ignore the Ford brothers, in a quintessentially Canadian way– passing an inoffensive budget, delaying an uncomfortable conversation about jets at the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, averting eyes at the prospect of hurrying ahead on city-wide contracting out of garbage collection. Things got boisterous on the campaign trail, but things do, and Torontonians clearly were

only willing to have so much of it. While some may have hankered for the old, hoot-and-holler approach to municipal governance, most turned away from Rob’s brother Doug Ford and cast their votes with the one candidate on the planet who could give even Norm Kelly a few lessons in table manners, the forcefully pleasant John Tory. This more than anything is evidence that the Polite Revolution has taken hold on at least a semi-permanent basis. As it turns out, Torontonians are not only fond of the traditional Canadian values of Peace, Order and Good Government: after a year of exposure to it, we’re also fond of just a little peace and quiet.

RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com To the chagrin of some, Metrolinx has commenced noise wall construction along the West Toronto Railpath. Last week, construction crews were spotted along the railpath putting up large steel pillars to hold the wall segments in place. The pieces themselves, which were chosen through a community consultation process completed last year, will vary from transparent acrylic to precast concrete with a ribbon design. Some segments of the noise walls will also have specially designed art installations which Metrolinx has pledged to maintain for at least a few years.

The installation of noise walls has begun along the West Toronto Railpath. The walls will muffle the sound of the trains as they go through Weston to Pearson airport early in 2015.

ect is expected to cost $20 million to complete and is part of a series of infrastructure upgrades taking place along the Georgetown South rail corridor in advance of UP. Critics of the project worry the walls will be used as justification to postpone electrifi-

cation of UP Express, which Metrolinx says will take place prior to similar conversions on the entire GO rail network within a decade. The noise walls are scheduled for completion in early 2015, before UP begins service in time for the Toronto Pan Am/Parapan Am Games.

Park Lawn has catered to some of West Toronto’s most famous inhabitants since 1892. The cemetery office can be reached at:

The Music Therapy Trust presents a screening of a documentary film, 'The Gift of Music: Stories of Music Therapy,' Thursday, Nov. 27 at Palmerston library, in the Bathurst and Bloor west street area.

Documentary screening draws attention to music therapy Benefical treatment is not covered by insurance LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com Diagnosed with polio as a child, Chin Injeti had to overcome major obstacles to be able to walk again. He credits music therapy for helping him heal. Music therapy, says the Grammywinning music producer and songwriter, saved his life. Music therapy was also the key to helping a newborn without sight learn to engage her other senses; music therapy comforted a dying man, who recorded a love song for his wife. These are some of the people featured in the documentary film ‘The Gift of Music: Stories of Music Therapy,’ by The Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund, directed by one of its board members, Scott Rondeau. “Making this film changed my life,” Rondeau told The Villager. “I think a lot of us are fans of music, but this film attempts to uncover in part, why we like it so much. Throughout the film, scientists, doctors and music therapists talk about how music is just in us. That was a by-product of the film as I set out to make a very different film at the beginning,

simply about what music therapy does.” Screenings of the film continue until Nov. 28 with a showing at the Palmerston library, located at Bloor West and Bathurst streets, Thursday, Nov. 27 at 7 p.m. “The goal is to raise awareness (of music therapy),” said the Bloordale Villagebased centre’s spokesperson Chrissy Pearson. The screenings that take place across the country are serving as a fundraiser for the trust. Through a fundraising initiative in 2007 called ‘Campaign Think 10’ during which participants came up with ways to raise increments of $10, such as hosting a concert for $10 tickets, which ended up raising $10,000, the Music Therapy Trust was able to pay for the creation of the documentary. Rondeau, a filmmaker by profession, offered to make the movie for free, however the trust covered his travel and equipment costs. He travelled coast to coast to meet with music therapists (MT) and filmed them doing their work. “I think the stories throughout do a good job in scratching the surface

of what an MT does – we would need a six-season series to truly show all that it can do – but I loved digging deeper into the effects of music and how and why it is so transformative and powerful,” Rondeau said. “That truly made the film special.” These music therapists were chosen by the Music Therapy Trust and were for the most part recipients of its grants. This kind of therapy is not funded by the government or insurance agencies. “People who can use this the most are the ones who can’t afford it,” she said. Founded as a national charity in 1996, The Canadian Music Therapy Tr u s t Fu n d h a s ra i s e d more than $4 million and funded more than 400 Music Therapy projects across the country. Its mandate is to fund certified music therapists who use the power of music to heal, rehabilitate and promote wellness for people dealing with a variety of challenges, such as terminal illness, autism, physical disabilities and Alzheimer’s, among others.

the building, she pointed out. “This would set a precedent. You could knock down any house to make room for a commercial building once the zoning is changed. Our whole neighbourhood is in jeopardy,” she said. The proposed building does not respect the character of the existing neighbourhood, Wynne added and would bring even more traffic to an already congested area. Change is inevitable, said the Old Mill Community A s s o c i a t i o n’s Ti m o t h y Lowman, but it’s not being managed properly. “What’s really needed is a new system dealing with development in this city,” he said. “It’s just a broken system that needs complete overhauling. This kind of bad development hits you where you live.” T h e re s i d e n t organizations are appealing to the broader community for help, not Early Stages (4-6 yrs) & just financially, Main School (6-16 yrs) but for its time as well. “This is the fight FOR MORE INFO VISIT: – the time is now,” Mary Long Toronto West said Lowman, who called the OMB www.stagecoachschools.ca hearing a “David and Goliath” fight.

The proposed building at nine stories would be four storeys higher than what is currently zoned for the area and has no set-back to provide relief from shadowing of the sidewalks on both sides of Bloor Street West. “A major point for SARA is that the whole development encroaches on the zoning of the Swansea neighbourhood,” said SARA spokesperson Veronica Wynne.

Elevator mishap at Union Station causes headaches for commuters The TTC has closed an elevator at Union Station earlier than anticipated following a freak construction mistake. The University line lift was expected to close early next month to allow for the construction of a new elevator and escalator but crews working on the station’s renovation “inadvertently” cut through the elevator’s hydraulic cables rendering it inoperable. A temporary elevator will be in place by early December, and until then riders traveling south can go an additional stop to St. Andrew station – before switching trains and backtracking north to Union to use the Yonge line elevator instead. deLays KING STATION WI-FI wttc

The Honest Edâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s site will be Bay Boyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 11th location, though its stay at Bathurst and Bloor comes with a time limit. The Honest Edâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s store was sold last year to developer Westbank Properties and it is expected to shut its door for good perhaps as soon as the end of 2016. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe it may take a little while longer for (Westbank) to start work on whatever theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to build there, so hopefully we can be there a little longer,â&#x20AC;? Lastman said. The store will host a grand opening sale at its new location, 782 Bathurst Street, starting at 6 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 20, with more than $50,000 in giveaways.
