MASKED MAN: Participants score simultaneous hits during Pillow Fight Toronto 2015 Saturday in Nathan Phillips Square.

Initiative puts Toronto poets on the map – literally JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com Will Toronto the Good someday be known as Toronto the Poetic?

If the city’s poet laureate, George Elliott Clarke, has any say in the matter, it just might.

Toronto Public Library (TPL) has recently unveiled a Toronto Poetry Map outlining locations throughout the city that have been specifically referenced in published poems, with the public invited to submit omissions.

“A couple of years ago, we were approached by Toronto’s poet laureate, who was interested in having a project to call his own,” said Mary-Beth Arima of TPL. “He came back to us with 150 poems that mentioned locations and we had a website

made up that shows the locations.”

The map isn’t quite the first of its kind – TPL already created a literary map denoting where Toronto locales have been listed in popular fiction and short >>>POETRY, page 9

Youngsters in the Christie Street and Ossington Avenue area will be able to lace ‘em up and hit the ice as early as next year thanks to a donation from the MLSE (Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment) Foundation and the Just Energy Foundation.

The two organizations donated $50,000 to the Christie Ossington Neighbourhood Centre (CONC) as part of a new initiative between the foundations. Dubbed the “Toronto Maple Leafs Community Action Grant presented by the Just Energy Foundation,” the new initiative will see $50,000 donated to three Toronto notfor-profits each year to support sports programming.

According to CONC program manager Jennifer Irving, the grant will help provide hockey equipment to at-risk children from six to 12 years of age in the area as part of CONC’s The Nook Children’s Program.

“The Nook program includes arts, sports and literacy, but our sports programs are definitely lacking in terms of what we can provide because equipment’s expensive,” she said. “Thanks to this money, we’ll be able to run a hockey pilot program for the next three years and we’re >>>HOOPS, page 7

Play will be held at a school slated for closure JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com In his role as co-artistic director of Outside the March, Annex resident Mitchell Cushman is no stranger to pushing boundaries by bringing theatre outside of traditional venues.

His latest project, slated to begin in mid-April, will push those boundaries further than ever before.

Cushman is the co-creator and director of Brantwood: 1920-2020, a site-specific play that will bring audience members to an actual GTA school slated for closure.

The audience members will be free to roam the halls and take part in a sort of high school reunion with a twist – each room will feature its own plotline set in its own decade, from its inception to its impending demolition and beyond.

“Audience members will be welcomed as alumni to this school that’s being shut down,” Cushman said.

“They can walk around and move in and out of 11 plotlines, one for each decade the school existed and one that’s set in the future, looking at a couple living in a condo that’s built on the school’s site in 2020.”

With 42 actors playing about 100 roles in Brantwood, the play may be the largest immersive site-specific play in Canadian history.

The piece will transport audiences back to various eras, with characters

storylines reflecting major social themes from those time periods.

For instance, the 1930s room will look at rising anti-Semitism, the 1940s room will tackle gender and racial segregation, and later decades will take on subject matter such as teen pregnancy, drug use, transgender issues and other topics.

“We wanted to look at what life was like in those eras, not just ‘look how far we’ve come,’” Cushman said.

Having so many actors playing multiple roles in multiple rooms spanning multiple decades required a painstaking amount of forethought and planning. Cushman said he and co-creator Julie Tepperman tried to find parallels the actors could use so they could play nuanced versions of similar roles wherever possible.

“It takes a huge amount of logistical thinking so the whole thing feels seamless to the audience,” he said. “When we were planning it out, Julie and I had a huge wall of Post-It notes trying to make the pieces fit. It looked like we were coming up with a massive conspiracy theory, and I think in some ways that’s almost what we were doing.”

While audience members will be immersed in the worlds to which they are transported, effectively becoming alumni from each decade they visit, they will not be asked to play active roles in the play.

Mitchell Cushman is the co-creator and director of the immersive, sitespecific play, Brantwood: 19202020.

“In some scenes, they’ll be spoken to and in some they’ll be flies on the wall, but there won’t be a ton of audience interaction,” Cushman said.

That’s a necessity for a play as intricate as Brantwood: 1920-2020.

With so many moving pieces, ensuring the actors hit their marks on time is almost a science.

“There are times when an actor has 30 seconds to get from one scene to another and if they don’t, there will be a domino effect,” Cushman said.

“One of the most thrilling parts,

though, is that each time we run the show now, it’s more and more like clockwork.”

Cushman and Tepperman honed their skills with Outside the March, staging such acclaimed pieces as the Simpsons-themed post-apocalyptic musical Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play, as well as Mr. Marmalade, which sees a four-year-old struggle with an abusive relationship with a an imaginary friend, and others.

Their work tends to be more immersive than your standard theatrical fare.

“I go see a lot of theatre and sometimes I find my mind wanders, so we always look to put on a more active, engaging experience,” Cushman said.

Brantwood: 1920-2020 will carry that tradition forward in a big way.

The play will run from April 14 through May 3, with audience members meeting at Sheridan College in Oakville where they will board a school bus to the venue.

UCC hosts Terry Fox ‘skate’ on milestone anniversary JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com When Terry Fox embarked on his Marathon of Hope on April 12, 1980, he had little idea his trek across Canada would make such waves in the decades to come.

This weekend, a special free skate will be held at Upper Canada College’s William P. Wilder Arena to commemorate the 35th anniversary of Fox’s historic cross-Canada journey and to kick off the fundraising year for the UCC Terry Fox Run. “We did a similar skate on Dec. 28 and we thought the 35th anniversary of the day he started was a great time to have another one,” said Chris Henry, co-chair of the Terry Fox Community Fun Run at UCC/ Forest Hill. “It’s also a time when all the outdoor rinks in Toronto are closed, so it’s sort of a last hurrah for people wanting to get out onto the ice.”

Skaters need only to bring their own skates and helmet. While the event itself is free to all participants, Henry hopes those who attend get

Upper Canada College will be hosting a free skate this weekend at William P. Wilder Arena to mark the 35th anniversary of Terry Fox setting off on his Marathon of Hope fundraising run.

into the spirit by either making a donation or by signing up for this fall’s Terry Fox Run. “We’re going to put a small bottle out, similar to the one (Fox) used to collect water from the Atlantic before setting out on the Marathon of Hope,” Henry said.

“We hope people will drop a bit of money in there, but they can also just come out and enjoy the skate.”

Event organizers will also sell jackets, sweaters and other merchandise commemorating Fox, and there will be opportunities to learn

about the Canadian hero’s legacy.

“I know people who run marathons and the next day, they’re completely spent,” Henry said. “Terry Fox ran a marathon a day, day after day, on a stump of wood and metal.”

By raising awareness of Fox’s courage and dedication, Henry hopes this weekend’s free skate prompts more people to join in a Terry Fox Run this fall.

In addition to the free skate, Running Room locations across Canada will host five-kilometre and 10-kilometre walk/run/bike events to mark the 35th anniversary since the start of the Marathon of Hope.

Those events will kick off at 8:30 a.m. and hopeful participants can learn more at www.terryfox.org/ marathon-of-hope-celebration. html The free skate at UCC will take place from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 12 at 200 Lonsdale Rd.

Big Data monitoring of Toronto traffic comes with a price One of the big problems Mayor John Tory came into office promising to solve was also one of the most ubiquitous: traffic.

He started out strong and without even a council vote behind him, rallying city staff and law enforcement into a blitz against illegal parking during rush hour, and very quickly claimed at least anecdotal success: people were telling him their commutes were getting easier. It was harder to quantify, though, because as it turns out the city doesn’t really do much to reliably monitor the intensity of rush hour traffic.

It looks as though that’s about to change.

On April 7, Tory announced the city would be looking at high-tech ways to monitor traffic density, pedestrian congestion, bicycle efficiency, all of that. How? Two words: Big Data.

This, of course, is a simple phrase for a com-

david nickle the city plexity of information about all of us provided by everything from bank transactions to web page visits, but principally, in this case, by our smartphones.

“

The idea is to use the smartphone networks that help us use our navigation functions to tell city traffic planners where exactly we are, and what it’s likely we’re doing.

Where we are The idea is to use the smartphone networks that help us use our navigation functions to tell city traffic planners where exactly we are, and what it’s likely we’re doing.

So whether it’s a crowd of us trying to decipher the scramble intersection at Yonge and Dundas, or a line of us trying to manage a left turn at Yonge and Sheppard, city traffic planners will have a line on it.

For the purpose of traffic management, it’s a powerful tool. Unchecked, it is a privacy nightmare.

Of course, Big Data is unchecked. Edward Snowdon, currently hiding in Russia, provided evidence of just how unchecked it is. Huge amounts of information about our private lives are neatly filed in NSA (National Security Agency) computers in the United States.

Almost as much is in the hands of Google and Facebook and even of the developers of games about angry birds, and those little flashlight apps on our smartphones.

We signed the end user

agreement on that information a long time ago and barely realized it.

Given that, maybe it’s worth it to allow a little more information about our whereabouts to be collected and collated, so the city can manage its traffic light energy grid more efficiently and keep streetcars running more effectively.

It is naïve, however, to expect Toronto will be able to access that kind of service without giving up quite a lot of the presumed privacy of its citizens and particularly as the city engages private sector data mining firms to do the work.

It’s unreasonable to think that the best ones will limit their measurements to the amount of time it takes to drive the Don Valley Parkway from Queen Street to Eglinton Avenue at 4 p.m. on a Tuesday.

Everything has a price.

Hoops and soccer grants also in the works

Children learn hockey warm-up exercises at the Christie Ossington Neighbourhood Centre during an event celebrating the MLSE Foundation and Just Energy Foundation’s donation of $50,000 to the centre’s Nook Children program.

>>>from page 1 hoping to renew it after that.”

Irving said CONC will look to purchase enough equipment for 45 kids for the new We Nook, We Shoot, We Score initiative. Until now, The Nook program was able to provide a few hockey sticks to kids, but full ice hockey has been impossible to fund.

“We have equipment for soccer and basketball, and

we have some baseball equipment, but there’s no way we could have afforded enough equipment to have our kids playing hockey with all the equipment,” she said.

Following a cheque presentation at St. Raymond School, kids in The Nook Children’s Program participated in a workout highlighting some of the exercises hockey players do to prepare for games.

Though the new equipment

has yet to be purchased, they still managed to get a little ball hockey in.

“Seeing the look on the faces of the children who will benefit from We Nook, We Shoot, We Score when we announced Christie Ossington Neighbourhood Centre would be receiving a $50,000 grant is really what it’s all about,” said MLSE Foundation executive director Michael Bartlett.

“Monday was an incredible

start to our new Community Action Grant program and we’re very excited to move forward with Just Energy’s support and award some basketball and soccer programs with grants of their own in the coming months.”

pan am/parapan am games

New Canadians mark 100 days to go before Pan Am Games Nearly 100 new citizens from 58 countries take the oath of citizenship at Cooper Koo YMCA JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com With 100 days left before the start of the Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games, nearly 100 new Canadians earned their citizenship at a special ceremony at the Cooper Koo YMCA on Wednesday, April 1.

The dual ceremony saw 99 people hailing from 58 countries take the oath of citizenship on the site that will serve as the athletes’ village, followed by a celebration of the upcoming games.

Several Pan Am hopefuls were on hand, along with famed Canadian speed skater and two-time Olympic gold medallist Catriona Le May Doan, who noted she

herself is a first-generation Canadian, having been born here to parents who came to Canada from Great Britain in 1963.

“Am I ever glad that they (came to Canada) and that they stayed, and that my sisters and I have been able to grow up in this great country,” she said. “What’s wonderful about this country is that we have such diversity – diversity in people and cultures, diversity in weather.”

Le May Doan credited Canada for supporting her as she fulfilled her goal of becoming a champion speed skater, and told those joining the ranks of Canadian citizenship they could expect similar support as they pursued their own ambitions.

“I never forget how fortunate I have been and I continue to be to wear the maple leaf,” she said. “Canada will support your dreams.”

New Canadian Joel Thompson, originally from Trinidad and Tobago, earned his citizenship after living in Canada for 21 years, finally applying due to his 22-monthold daughter Eliana.

“This is a very important day for me and my family,” he said.

Having become a citizen as Toronto marked the 100day countdown to the games, Thompson said he was looking forward to the upcoming sporting event, which will see some 7,000 athletes from the Americas come to Toronto.

“It’s going to be exciting,

Canadian Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Chris Alexander said it was fitting to celebrate the 100-day countdown to the Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am

Games with a citizenship ceremony.

“It is a truly special day for all of us as we bring this milestone in your lives together with a really important milestone in the life of this city and the country,” he told the new Canadian citizens. “Perhaps in a few years, some of you represent Canada as Best Buy CORRECTION NOTICE will athletes.”

Pan Am Games hopeful Zsofi Balazs knows the journey the new Canadian citizens took in leaving their home countries to come to Canada. She herself came to the country from Hungary at the age of four.

Balazs took up swimming as a child to manage her asthma, but stuck with it to the point where she is now a world-class athlete in the sport.

“It’s amazing to think I was able to achieve all my goals and dreams so far because I moved to Canada,” she said. “Citizenship here really opened doors for me.”

She hopes to qualify for the games when she competes in a qualifier on May 2, adding competing for gold on home soil would be a special thrill.

“I’ve been to two Pan Am Games in 2007 and 2011, and to get to compete in a third Pan Am Games and perform in front of a home crowd would be that much more special,” she said.

There are still opportunities available for people to volunteer at the Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games, and tickets available for the events.

Little Italy, for instance, has earned no fewer than eight mentions in published poems, while High Park and Mimico Creek were each referenced in seven and Kensington Market and Yorkville in five apiece. “One thing that surprised me was there were so many poems set on the subway, a b o u t p e o p l e m ov i n g around,� Arima said.

Plans revealed for Guvernment/Kool Haus three-acre site JOANNA LAVOIE jlavoie@insidetoronto.com Plans have now been unveiled for the three-acre site that was once home to one of Toronto’s biggest and most iconic nightclubs/event venues, The Guvernment/ Kool Haus.

Located in the emerging East Bayfront neighbourhood, the northeast corner of Lower Jarvis Street and Queens Quay East is set to be re-imaged as Daniels Waterfront – City of the Arts, a 1,320,000-squarefeet ‘live-work-play-learn-create’ community with office, retail, residential, academic and cultural components.

Mayor John Tory spoke at the announcement, which was held in a large tent on the site.

During the press conference, Tory said this new mixed-used development, which will include two office towers and two condominium buildings with space at the bottom for a post-secondary institution as well as a

150,000-square-foot ‘Creative Industries Hub’, is part of what “makes Toronto special.”

“It’s going to send a message to the rest of the world that this is what Toronto is,” he said, noting he doesn’t attend announcements for every development.

“I wanted to be here today because it is such a special place where people will work, live, study and care.

It’s a model for people to replicate.”

John Campbell, Waterfront Toronto’s president and CEO, called the two-phase development “a great addition to the East Bayfront community.”

“The Daniels’ design fits with the vision and provides great value to the community,” he said, crediting the excellent planning as a key reason why private sector investors are attracted to the waterfront.

Local architecture firms Giannone Petricone Associates Inc. and RAW Design were selected to design the project, while the

“

It’s going to send a message to the rest of the world that this is what Toronto is.

An artists rendition of Daniels Waterfront - City of the Arts proposed for Toronto’s waterfront.

expertise of renowned urban design expert Ken Greenberg of Greenberg Consultants Inc. has also been tapped for the urban design and public realm aspects of the multi-faceted development, which is one of the first private sector developments in East Bayfront.

Greenberg, who previously worked on Regent Park’s Daniels Spectrum project, said City of the Arts is a collaborative effort between Daniels Corporation, the City

of Toronto and Waterfront Toronto that is succeeding in “truly building a neighbourhood.”

To illustrate this, he pointed to a Sugar Beach extension to the north of Queens Quay and ‘The Yard’, an east-west pedestrian link between Lower Jarvis and Richardson streets, as key aspects of the $700-million development.

Greenberg also spoke about the project’s contribution to the East Bayfront as a real 24/7 neighbourhood.

– Mayor John Tory

“I think for many reasons this project has truly broken ground in our city and will truly be a great addition to our waterfront,” he concluded.

Tom Dutton, Daniels Corporation’s senior vicepresident, said the thread that ties the project together is art, adding a number of notable arts and cultural organizations, including Artscape, have already signed on to call City of the Arts home.

Entertainment law firm Taylor Klein Oballa LLP, as well as talent management firm Last Gang Entertainment are also set to occupy space at the City of the Arts.

Further, Dutton pointed to agreements close to being finalized with George Brown College and OCAD University on a new centre for innovation

and commercialization.

Daniels Corporation is also set to relocate its headquarters to City of the Arts from its current home at Yonge and Queen streets.

Arrangements have also been made with the Carpenters Union Local 27 to bring an apprenticeship program and employment initiatives like those pioneered in Regent Park with Toronto Employment and Social Services and Dixon Hall to Daniels Waterfront – City of the Arts.

“We’ve been working very hard for the last few years,” Dutton said following the press conference. “It’s an extension of the entertainment at this site, but the next level. I think it’ll become a big magnet for the city.”

The demolition of the former The Guvernment/ Kool Haus entertainment complex is almost complete.

Construction is set to begin in May with occupancy of the first commercial office tenants planned for early 2018.

Man arrested after woman confined in Leslieville Neighbours wondering about an increase in police activity near Dundas Street East and Jones Avenue in Leslieville recently, now have answers about what was going on in their community.

On Tuesday morning, police held a press conference at their downtown headquarters to discuss the arrest of a 43-year-old man in connection with a sexual assault with a weapon, kidnapping and forcible confinement investigation.

In v e s t i g a t o r s re p o r t on Tuesday, March 31, a 27-year-old female sex-trade worker was approached by a man near Sherbourne and Shuter streets. Police said they “engaged in a business transaction”.

The man then allegedly produced a firearm and brought the woman to his home near Dundas Street East and Jones Avenue. He then reportedly threatened her with a handgun, bound her with duct tape and handcuffs and prevented her from leaving for five days.

During this time, the sus-

pect also allegedly sexually assaulted the woman with a weapon multiple times.

“It appears through investigation that she was targeted, that he has some form of ritualistic actions involved in the crime as well,” said Insp.

Joanna Beaven-Desjardins of the Toronto Police Services’ (TPS) sex crimes unit, during the press conference.

“It appears that he does target sex trade workers. I have no information that he has targeted before, but given the nature of the crime, there could be indication that he has.”

The victim was able to escape to the front porch on Sunday, April 5. A passerby heard her calls for help and contacted police. She was taken to hospital, but is now out and in good condition.

The man, who is originally from Timmins, ON, but has lived in the city for a decade and is known to police, fled the scene but was apprehended the next day.

Rejean Harmel Perron of Toronto was arrested on Monday, April 6.

He has been charged with one count each of sexual assault with a weapon, kidnapping, forcible confinement and assault.

Perron had an April 7 court appearance.

Police believe there may be more victims.

Anyone with information should contact police at 416808-7474, Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477), online at www.222tips. co, or text TOR and your message to CRIMES (274637). Tips can also be left on facebook at https://www.facebook.com/ TorontoPolice. There’s also a free Crime Stoppers Mobile App on iTunes, Google Play or Blackberry App World.
