While he spent the lion’s share of his life in his native South Africa, no one can dispute the impact Nelson Mandela had around the world.

Now, the City of Toronto is turning to the public to decide which street will be named after the late civil rights leader and South African president.

Council voted unanimously in favour of naming a street in Mandela’s honour in April.

The motion had been brought forward by councillor James Pasternak after he was approached by the Mandela Legacy Committee.

“They felt that because of Nelson Mandela’s ties to Toronto and the work he did (for civil rights) it would be fitting,” Pasternak said.

There are five potential locations that could soon bear Mandela’s name, with the former South African leader having ties to each.

The five options are: Queen Street West between Yonge Street and University Avenue; Shuter Street between River and Parliament streets; Gerrard Street East between Jarvis and Yonge streets; Bathurst Street between College and Herrick streets; and University Avenue between Front and College streets.

Community wants to keep former lawn bowling club as green space JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com

The Glebe Manor Lawn Bowling Club’s sale – or nearsale – of its Davisville lands to a developer has led to consternation from councillor Josh Matlow and residents in the area.

The owner of the green space on Manor Road East has been negotiating a deal with developer Michael Volpentesta, who aims to build five townhomes on the site.

That would put an end to the 90-plus-year-old patch of greenery in the Davisville neighbourhood, where green space is at a premium.

“We’ve been trying to sit down and meet with the president of the (lawn bowling) club since last March, but he hasn’t sat down with us,” Matlow said. “There’s already a possible deal between the club and the developer, but nobody in the community wants that.”

Matlow has secured council’s support to dip into the city’s parks acquisition fund in hopes of buying the property, either from the club or from Volpentesta. It’s believed the developer currently owns the land, though Matlow could not confirm the property’s sale had been finalized and, if it had, how much Volpentesta

“

What puzzles the people in the community and myself is why the owner wouldn’t talk to us, but seemed so eager to sell to the developer..

– Councillor Josh Matlow

paid for the land.

The councillor noted the fund, primarily built up through development fees, allows the city to pay fair market value for land in order to turn sites into public parks.

In the Davisville neighbourhood that houses Glebe Manor, that could cost in the neighbourhood of $5 million. ‘right thing’ “I hope the developer does the right thing and puts the community’s interests first here,” Matlow said. “What puzzles the people in the community and myself is why the owner wouldn’t talk to us, but seemed so eager to sell to the developer.”

The councillor added Volpentesta has not agreed to sit down with the community, but has expressed a willingness to listen to what the city will offer for the land.

Should the city be able to buy back the land, it would add a sizable green space to the neighbourhood. The Glebe Manor Lawn Bowling Club was a privately-owned facility permitted out for special events, though it did not offer unlimited free public access, as would a public park.

Despite that, Matlow said the loss of the space would be a blow to the community.

“This community has a dearth of green space, and the Glebe Manor Bowling Club has been here for almost a century,” he said. “It’s deeply valued by residents, and we’re willing to fight for green space here.”

He pointed to community efforts to save the Hodgson ice rink and get artificial turf installed at Maurice Cody Public School as evidence residents in the area will go to great lengths to fight for causes important to preserving the character of the neighbourhood.

“The community and I will fight hard against anything on that property other than green space,” he said.

He is urging residents to get in touch with his office, writing letters expressing their views on the matter.

>>>from page 2 to Toronto in 1990, and his then-wife Winnie led a march along Queen Street and University Avenue from City Hall to Queen’s Park, which led to those streets being selected for the potential street naming honour.

Following the march, Mandela gave a speech in front of thousands at Queen’s Park.

Also in 1990, Mandela spoke to students at Central Technical School about the mistreatment of black students in South Africa, making Bathurst one of the city’s options.

Nelson Mandela Park Public School, which was named after Mandela when he visited again in 2001, is

located on Shuter Street.

The former South African President received an honourary doctorate from Ryerson University in 2001, which led to the portion of Gerrard Street near the university being chosen as an option.

Lloyd McKell, of the Mandela Legacy Committee, said his organization has already decided on a preferred road for the renaming.

“The committee met last week and considered all the choices, and it was unanimous that we chose University Avenue over the others,” he said. “It’s one of the most popular and well-known roadways in Toronto and perhaps Ontario for residents and visitors and there are a lot of public transit options.”

“We believe it matches the stature of Nelson Mandela.”

McKell added University Avenue already features a commemorative monument honouring Canadians who served in the South African War between 1899 and 1902.

There is an online survey which allows the public to give their feedback on the matter, and Pasternak said he is looking forward to seeing what the public decides.

“They are all very, very good choices and when it comes to (the street renaming) I’m really looking forward to seeing it in place,” he said.

The federal riding was created in 1988 from the former ridings of Trinity, Spadina, Toronto CentreRosedale, and Parkdale-High Park. New Democrat Olivia Chow represented the riding since 2006 before resigning to run for Mayor of Toronto in the 2014 Municipal Election. Prior to Chow, the riding was held by Liberal Tony Ianno.

Tell us a little bit about yourself.

■ Climate change is the defining

■ I’ve learned from my wife Nina, who runs a women’s shelter, that building affordable housing and maintaining what we’ve got is essential for strengthening our cities. With so many Canadians living from paycheque to paycheque, I’m eager to carry on Jack (Layton) and Olivia’s (Chow) work on the issue.

We haven’t had a National Housing Strategy in Canada since the federal Liberals scrapped it. With 1.5 million people in urgent need of housing, it’s time for a truly progressive NDP federal government to take action now.

■ I’ve been campaigning for better transit and sustainable development for years. We’ve got to get cities moving again. Gridlock is costing Toronto $6 billion per year. The federal government must ensure stable, long-term funding for transit and infrastructure, and consecutive Liberal and Conservative governments have failed Canadian cities. The NDP has been calling for a national transit strategy for years now, and reintroducing this legislation is the first thing I intend to do when I get elected.

■ I grew up in Trinity-Spadina. My

■ I plan to be a champion for lower

taxes for the people of Trinity-Spadina. I want to give back more of what you earn. Since 2006, our Conservative government, under the strong, stable leadership of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, has lowered taxes over 150 times, saving the average family nearly $3400 per year. I’m proud that our Conservatives have put nearly $30 billion in tax relief back into the pockets of hard working Canadian families.

■ Our Conservative government understands that having a safe and affordable place to call home is important to Canadian families and their communities. Together with our partners, we have provided support to close to 880,000 families with access to affordable housing. Not only that, but we also committed a further $1.25 billion toward the renewal of the Investment in Affordable Housing. That’s strong action, unlike the Liberals and NDP who would prefer to sit around and talk strategy.

■ I know our cities need infrastructure support. That’s why our Conservative government introduced the New Building Canada Fund, which set aside $53 billion for infrastructure projects across Canada. We’ve come a long way since the previous Liberal government – Conservatives have tripled the average annual federal funding for provincial, territorial and municipal infrastructure and Ontario will receive nearly $11 billion in dedicated federal funding.

■ I was born and raised in the old City of Toronto. My childhood was spent in the Annex, living at Spadina and Lowther. After college and grad school in the States, I returned for professional school at U of T. I came by my politics through my studies – I focused on 19th century Russian literature and intellectual history, and it gave me an appreciation for our Canadian political system, democracy and freedom.

■ Lead the campaign for a new

■ After watching politicians com-

■ We are one of the most urban nations in the world, yet our government barely has a presence in Canadian cities. For almost 20 years I have worked with former mayors to advance the cause of cities. I have worked with urban thinkers to make the case for cities. Our cities need robust and stable funding. The federal government must trust local government and make sure the funding delivers local results quickly.

■ I have a lifelong connection to Trinity-Spadina. I went to school in the Annex, I’ve run a restaurant on Harbord and now watch my son play hockey at Bill Bolton Arena. For close to 20 years I lived and worked in the Entertainment District as a journalist at the CBC and Citytv. I’m now a father of two living in the Trinity-Bellwoods community. For the last eight years, I have represented Trinity-Spadina at city hall.

issue of our generation. With the recent flooding and ice storms, Torontonians have felt its impacts right here at home. The NDP has a vision to transition Canada toward renewable and clean energy and build Canada’s 21st century economy. While the Liberal leader has lobbied for Keystone XL in Washington, the NDP is the only party fighting Harper’s agenda every day in the House of Commons and across Canada.

urban agenda that sees the federal government partnering with cities to provide stable and substantial support for housing, transit, the arts and water infrastructure. Continue to protect the vision for a clean, green waterfront – no jets and reforming the Port Authority. We must also designate the island bird sanctuary, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by creating jobs and transforming cities into centres of environmental excellence while making them more resilient.

plain about a lack of support from senior levels of government, I got elected on a promise to build new housing. Since being elected, we’ve revitalized more than 650 affordable housing units; created 30,000 square feet of culture space; built new supportive housing and affordable rental housing for workers; established a capital repair budget for public housing; and saved Alexandra Park Co-Op. We need to use federal leadership to accelerate these ideas.

Much to celebrate this Canada Day

T

orontonians have much to celebrate on Canada Day. We have a front row seat when it comes to witnessing the amazing cultural diversity on display in our communities.

For example, there’s the ongoing World Cup of Soccer, where teams from 32 countries (each with an identifiable fan base in the city), are competing for the privilege of being crowned world champion. You can see the flags flying from homes, businesses and vehicles. You can see people gathered around televisions to watch the games. And you can definitely see and hear the jubilant celebrations when a team secures victory.

Canada is a nation of immigrants. And nowhere else is this country’s diversity as visible as it is in Toronto, where nearly half of the population first learned a language other than English at home.

We went to a citizenship cerour view emony and got the perspective of a number of new Canadians, North York’s Clive New citizens including Townsend, who spoke of the “privilege” citizenship granted strengthen him.

Toronto In this country, we have much to be thankful for. Rights that we normally take for granted can be harder to secure elsewhere.

So in honour of Canada Day, we’d like to throw out a couple of challenges.

To the new Canadian: in the coming months, make an effort to find out more about your new community and city and all it has to offer. The summer season is a wonderful time to do this. There are plenty of places, such as the Royal Ontario Museum, the Ontario Science Centre, the CN Tower or Fort York, to visit and get a sense of the community’s history and characteristics.

To the more deeply rooted Torontonian: use your time this summer to attend a couple of cultural events with a goal of finding out more about that particular culture and what it brings to our city.

Again, there are plenty of options to choose from, including such festivals as Salsa on St. Clair, Taste of the Danforth, and Scotiabank Caribana.

What better way to evolve as a community? As newer immigrants become more comfortable in their new home, and the more deeply-rooted citizens gain a greater understanding of the diverse cultures that make up this city, one of Toronto’s strengths – its multiculturalism – will get even stronger.

Happy Canada Day, everyone.

column

Ideas can lose steam in long mayoral races

R

eally, it is a good thing for a city, every three to four years to have a good long mayoral race. And not just because it’s healthy to change things at the top every once in awhile.

Particularly in Toronto’s 10-month marathons, it lets us air out some novel and occasionally useful and far-fetched ideas on how the city ought to be shaped.

Often these ideas come from the darnedest places, and that is where they stay.

In 2010, for instance, Rocco Rossi suggested Toronto should have a mechanism for recalling a bad mayor. That was an idea before its time – Rossi didn’t even make it to voting day, his support was so low – but there are probably a bindingpetitions-worth of people in Toronto right now who wish they had something like that over the past year.

This year, mayoral

david nickle the city candidate David Soknacki is on his way to fulfilling that role. Consistently low in public opinion polls, the former city councillor from Scarborough has been leading when it comes to ideas.

His first big idea, to scrap the Scarborough subway and build an LRT in its place, was soon picked up by Olivia Chow.

His latest, to ban onstreet parking on arterial roads in the downtown core, hasn’t yet been picked up by anyone.

It’s too bad, because the ban would probably do more to make on-road transportation faster and safer than any number of relief subway lines – or at least the decade of debates and environmental assessments preceding their construction.

“

Often these ideas come from the darnedest places, and that is where they stay

Bike lanes wouldn’t be the impediment to car traffic that they are now, because they wouldn’t have to deke around onstreet parking spaces and into car lanes. Where bike lanes weren’t appropriate, cars would have at least two lanes in a direction to move, and that would go the same for buses, which might be increased.

And pedestrians, not well known for adhering to crosswalks and traffic lights, would have a safer time crossing mid-block than they do lurching out into traffic from between parked cars.

It would also tick off numerous small busi-

nesses, and a certain number of motorists who’ve gotten used to parking on the streets and don’t like the multilevel parking garages that Soknacki envisions to replace street parking.

And those, at least in a mayoral race, are two sleeping bears that no candidate wants to poke.

That is why it takes a candidate like Soknacki – who at this point, has no car-commuter, small-business support to lose – to bring the notion forward.

It’s a good gamble on his part. If the idea catches on with enough other factions in our balkanized electorate, Soknacki could gain enough support to give him a shot at the prize.

And if not, it is a good, radical idea, of the sort that the more established candidates don’t go near.

Wanda Goodman wants to set a record for SickKids JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com A decade after first meeting young Eden Worth, midtown resident Wanda Goodman still thinks back on the time they shared.

Goodman, the owner of midtown business Wanda’s Creative Clay, started giving Eden sculpting lessons when the latter was just four years of age. Sadly, Eden was diagnosed with a brain tumour when she was five and passed away in 2013, just before she turned 13.

While Eden’s diagnosis and treatment meant she could no longer visit Goodman’s midtown shop, the sculpting teacher stayed close and brought the lessons to her ailing pupil.

“I got a call from her aunt who told me when Eden woke up in the hospital after surgery, she asked for me,” Goodman recalled. “(Clay sculpture) was something she loved doing, so I would go and visit her and we would sculpt together at her home or in the hospital.”

Now, the sculpting teacher is hosting an event in which she hopes to break the Guinness world record for largest clay sculpting class, with proceeds from the event going to

Photo/COURTESY

Wanda Goodman of Wanda’s Creative Clay, left, hugs Eden Worth.

Goodman will attempt to set a Guinness World Record for largest sculpting lesson on July 5 in memory of Eden and to benefit SickKids.

The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids).

“I’m expecting between 500 and 700 people and I’ll give them stepby-step instructions on how to make an elephant holding a heart in its trunk, because elephants never

forget,” Goodman said.

While having 500 people come out would obliterate the existing record of 315 people in one sculpting class, Goodman wants to make sure her bases are covered.

“The guidelines for Guinness

are very strict, so a lot of people try to break a record and don’t reach their goal,” she said. “That’s not an option for me. I didn’t want to just coast over (the old record).”

Goodman recalled Eden as a sweet young girl who loved sculpting ladybugs and hearts and who was enamoured of butterflies and mystical creatures such as unicorns.

“She loved butterflies because she said they were hearts folded in half,” Goodman said.

Through sponsorships, donations and other fundraising efforts, Goodman is looking to raise more than $10,000 for SickKids, with the donation coming in Eden’s name.

The event will take place at Centreville and Far Enough Farm’s KidsFest on Toronto Island, though registration for the event is open to children and adults alike.

“It’s such a great family event, I think the parents will love it too,” Goodman said.

Registration for the fundraising record attempt will take place from 11 to 1 p.m. on Saturday, July 5, with the lesson itself taking place from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

CONSUMER FEATURE

It’s been a long, cold winter and we’ve waited months for the warm weather to arrive. Finally, summer’s here.

And just as winter’s extreme cold affects those who are vulnerable, so does summer’s extreme heat.

The warmer weather affects vulnerable populations more quickly than others and for these reasons, it’s important to make sure that your loved ones are safe. Younger children, babies and seniors are at particular risk when the temperatures rise.

When summer temperatures soar beyond safe levels, the City of Toronto will issue a “Heat Alert.” These advisories are reminders for people – particularly those who are especially vulnerable, to take special care when the mercury soars. The Toronto Central Community Care Access Centre monitors these alerts and are always available to answer questions and provide support wherever needed.

Those who may have an increased risk during the hot weather include: • Older adults, infants and young children • People with chronic illnesses, such as heart or respiratory conditions • People who work or exercise outside • People who live alone • Even folks without air conditioning or adequate air circulation Seniors have particular risks in the summer. These include the following, including descriptions of each: • Sun Burn: Marked by pink or red skin that feels warm or hot to the touch • Heat Exhaustion: Signs include sweating, cool moist skin, high body temperature, weak pulse, possibly fainting and vomiting

• Heat Stroke: Symptoms include a high body temperature and any of the following: weakness, confusion, hot, dry, flushed skin, fast pulse, headache and dizziness If there are people in your life, such as grandparents, friends, or neighbours who may be at risk for heat-related health issues, make sure to check on them regularly during the summer months. Where appropriate, support them or help them make provisions for managing in the heat. A friendly phone call, an email or visit to see how they’re doing will allow you the peace of mind that your loved one is okay. You can also create a hot weather protection plan for them to assure that they’re prepared for the heat. As part of the plan, make sure to address the following: • The location of the closest airconditioned place (shopping centre, library, community centre, etc.) or cooling centre • Knowing the signs and the symptoms of heat-related illnesses, such as heat stroke • Having a backup support system, friend or caregiver who can help in case of an emergency.

ed not to leave our pets and children in the car when it’s hot. The same rule applies to anyone, especially seniors.

NEVER leave a person or pet in an unattended car.

WHEN AN ALERT IS DECLARED, TAKE ACTION:

Encourage those at risk to visit the cool room in their building, or cool public places such as malls, community centres, and libraries, and regularly check on them to make sure they’re managing.

Here are some simple tips for seniors to help them cope with the heat: • Encourage them to drink plenty of fluids especially water • Limit activities so that they don’t over-exert themselves • Visit air conditioned spaces, such as malls, shopping centres and the city operated cooling centres • Call for help if they don’t feel well, i.e., if they become ill, faint, have trouble breathing or feel confused or disoriented.

speakers, performers, information booths and a refugee walk to raise awareness of the day.

El-Farouk Khaki, a Toronto lawyer and downtown resident, said his family fled Tanzania in the 1970s among thousands of East Indians who claimed asylum in Canada and the U.K. after being forced out of their homeland.

The UN estimates there were about 10.4 million refugees of concern last year. Another 4.8 million are looked after in some 60 camps in the Middle East.

Canada accepts about 15,000 refugees yearly.

More than half are selected abroad for resettlement here. The others are privately sponsored or arrive in Canada seeking protection.

ormer Jamaican soldier Clive Townsend proudly saluted Citizenship Judge Karen McMillan as he was sworn in as a new Canadian with 103 others just days before our country’s 147th birthday on Tuesday, July 1.

“It is a privilege to become a Canadian,” said the North York resident after the ceremony. “I have been waiting a long time for this dream to come true.”

An ecstatic Townsend, 50, said his first task is to register to vote.

“I went to vote in the provincial election (June 12) and I could not because I am not Canadian,” he said. “I will be first in line to vote in the mayoral election in October.”

Townsend moved to Toronto from Jamaica in 1995 and plans to sponsor to Canada members of his family.

“This document gives me privilege,” Townsend said of his Certificate of Citizenship. “I have been waiting for a long time to become a citizen of this great country.”

He said this Canada Day will be “even more special” as he is a citizen.

Kulwant Kaur, and her son, Sukhjinder, 20, also of North York, were all smiles as they recited their Oaths of Citizenship.

“My son will have a great future here with more opportunities than I had,” Kaur beamed. “We are very excited about our lives in Canada.”

She moved here with her family from India about 20-years ago and never took out citizenship.

“I am so very proud,” she said. “Now we can vote and have better job opportunities.”

Many of the new citizens fled violent or war-torn countries and were granted asylum in Canada.

Lara, 26, who lives in downtown Toronto and did not want her last name used, said her parents fled Lebanon five years ago due

to the violence.

“We wanted to live somewhere that is peaceful and stable,” Lara said. “Our family have been through a lot and we wanted someplace safe.”

She plans on applying for a passport and public service job, for both of which she has to be a citizen.

Marcia Collins, who recently moved from

Etobicoke to Mississauga, praised Canada as a great place to raise a family.

“This is a wonderful country to be a citizen of,” said Collins, who came here from Jamaica. “Being a citizen means that I now have a voice and can vote.”

Judge McMillan urged the new Canadians to vote and exercise their responsibilities. “Take pride in the

Oath and always defend the Canadian way of life,” she said.

Ceremony guest Rana Khan, of the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), reminded the new Canadians that June 20 was declared World Refugee Day, to commemorate the plight of refugees. “You have picked a great country

to call home,” Khan said.

“Toronto and Canada have always been generous hosts for refugees fleeing from conflicts around the world.”

She said events were planned throughout Canada to mark the special day.
