Councillor supports group fed up with conditions at schools Tara Hatherly thatherly@insidetoronto.com Parents from five East York schools followed up a rally last week by appealing to the Toronto District School Board to prioritize muchneeded funding for their schools. More than 100 parents of students from Secord, Parkside, George Webster, Crescent Town and D.A. Morrison schools packed a recent TDSB meeting, causing it to be moved to a larger room. Group representatives, as well as Beaches-East York Councillor Janet Davis, addressed the board, highlighting the schools’ needs.

The Riverdale group has been raising concern over the impact the lack of extracurricular activities has on children at public schools.

Parents work to return extracurriculars TARA HATHERLY thatherly@insidetoronto.com A group of Toronto parents is reaching out to teachers’ unions and government representatives in a bid to return extra-curricular activities to Ontario’s public schools. Children’s Advocates for Public Education (CAPE) in Ontario was formed by Riverdale parents concerned about the effect of teachers’ labour dispute on students. The group now has more than 100 members from throughout Ontario. “We really wanted to give voice

to our children ... to keep the focus on the impact of the situation on children,” said Andrea Williams, a spokesperson for the group. “We’re trying to build a bridge between the government and the teachers’ unions so that we can get extracurriculars back into our schools, but also restore the goodwill at our schools.” Ontario’s public elementary and high school teachers cancelled students’ extracurricular programs to protest Bill 115, an act to implement restraint measures in the education sector dubbed the Putting Students

First Act. The legislation imposed two-year contracts that included a wage freeze and reductions in sick days, benefits and bargaining rights. While the bill was repealed in January, teachers continue to protest the contracts it imposed. Worried a lack of extracurricular activities is negatively affecting students’ lives and opportunities, and Ontario’s schools, CAPE hopes to persuade teachers’ unions and the provincial government to find ways teachers can protest, and feel they are being taken seriously, without >>>GROUP, page 6

‘Ignored far too long’ “Our needs, in our opinion, have been ignored far too long,” Saros said. “We’re at 108 per cent over capacity, others are at 125 per cent over capacity. They’re in old, old, old portables; between George Webster and Secord, they’re the oldest portables in the city and they’re literally rotting.” There are 36 portables at the two schools, some separate and some connected in “port-a-pacs.” Portables are sometimes unusable, due to decay and raccoon infestations. Some are said to be filled with a stench possibly caused by dead raccoons in the walls or floors. Saros said the problems aren’t limited to the schools’ portables. “You walk into rooms and ceiling tiles are missing, there’s unfinished

drywall, moulding’s peeling off, there’s water stains, there’s probably mold and mildew in the walls, they smell,” he explained. “There could be legitimate health concerns, and they’re not getting better.” With the schools in need of repairs and overflowing with children, Secord Public School is set to welcome scores of new students when full-day kindergarten debuts there in 2014. Over-population at George Webster Elementary School was exacerbated by the introduction of full-day kindergarten at Crescent Town Public School. With Crescent Town already filled over capacity, the school had nowhere to house the new students, forcing it to send students from its highest grade, Grade 5, to George Webster. As Parkside Elementary School faces a potential closure, parents of students there worry their children will be transferred to D.A. Morrison Middle School, which does not have facilities to serve the younger students. Parents from all five schools appealed in solidarity for funding, concerned their schools are being neglected, following funding announcements for renovations and additions at other Toronto schools. Saros said board members seemed frustrated by the appeals, telling the group it should be approaching the province, which controls the board’s capital funding. Though the province controls the purse strings, the group believes the board can influence which projects are prioritized for funding. >>>province, page 12

Goalie from New Zealand skates with Leaside midget girls DAVID GROSSMAN active@insidetoronto.com It’s almost time for Jaimee Wood to end her Canadian experience. And for her, returning home might be quite a bit tougher than standing in front of rubber pucks blasted her way. Wood will soon be packing up her personal belongings and hockey gear to head back to her home on an island country in the southwest Pacific Ocean. She made the best of a rare and favourable opportunity in Toronto the past few months, instead of enjoying a summer vacation in Dunedin, to advance her skills, interest and knowledge in ice hockey. By the way, that’s Dunedin, the second largest city in the south island of New Zealand. Wood is a hockey goalie and has been playing between the pipes since a friend introduced her to that position when she was nine years of age. Considered tall for her age at five feet, eight inches, Wood is noticeably quick with her glove and strong on skates. The youngster is so good she was named to a national under-18 squad and, in fairness, of a country

trying to build a hockey program. Her junket to Canada came as a result of a connection with Andrew Smyth, a board member with the Toronto Leaside Girls’ Hockey Association – a group that likes to help improve the sport in other countries. With her parents approval, the

17 year old came for a 10-week stay, billeted by a Leaside family (whose daughter also plays goal for the same Wildcats midget B squad). “It has been simply amazing,” Wood said of the experience. “My first time to Canada, the ice rinks are larger than back home, the coaching has been great, the

people have been fabulous and I have learned a great deal.” But Wood is also not one to forget about the camaraderie of teammates, the socialization off the ice and the people who made it all happen. “You don’t forget these kinds of things,” she said. “It goes way beyond playing hockey and while there was so much that I have benefitted from as a player, there are friends that I have gained forever and families have made me feel just like being at home.” Wood, who plays a stand-up and default style game similar to Martin Brodeur with the NHL New Jersey Devils, has also represented New Zealand in games in Japan. With Leaside, Wood has been on the ice as much as six times a week and looked very solid sharing the goaltending job with Meghan McStay and Jose MacDonald. In the handful of games Wood has played, she has recorded a win, a tie and a loss with two shutouts. “I was curious how a kid in New Zealand suddenly discovers hockey,” said Tom Stevens, who coaches the team. “Watching her in net, I have to say she’s not only a great athlete,

but I’d describe her as being like a sponge. Just soaks up the game, the advice and has this sound attitude for learning and making herself a better player and person.” Already admitted to the prestigious New Zealand Otago Sports Institute to study Applied Sport and Exercise, Wood did make a confession. “The Canadian game, the facilities and coaching – it’s all been marvelous,” said Wood. “You have a great tradition in this sport and I can see why so many people talk about Canada being a leader.” When asked about returning to Canada, Wood didn’t rule out a return visit to North America. But, for now, she appears to be leaning to a university education in New Zealand. Stevens didn’t know what to expect when he first heard he’d be adding a new player, for a short time, to his team. “First practice, I was impressed by her talent.” “I could tell she’s played the game before and she would fit in nicely with the rest of our team. It was also nice to know she was on our side of the ice. It would have been nice to find a way to keep her in Canada – and right here at Leaside.”

Focus on Wynne’s leadership

To the editor: It’s time they stopped telling us that Premier elect Kathleen Wynne is the first openly gay leader in Ontario. Is this going to influence her ability to lead the Liberal Party? Isn’t it time to focus on what other qualifications she has to be a capable leader, instead of merely promoting her sexual orientation? Has any other politician come out and said they were openly heterosexual?

Maximizing the impact of public consultations

s the city-wide tour of transit consultations makes its way through various parts of Toronto this week and next, it’s important to reinforce the potential value these community gatherings have. When we take advantage of these opportunities, we build better communities. The Feeling Congested? series is designed to garner public feedback on transporour view tation priorities and funding options. The series kicked off in Speak up now York on Monday. Additionally, according to chief planner on transit to Jennifer Keesmaat, more than 1,500 people have already shared shape future their opinions online. It is admittedly challenging to share feedback for projects that are years, even decades away from being realized. But as we seek to connect our communities, this stage is an important one. It has impact. For evidence, look no further to what happened last week on another transit-related issue: the construction of the Eglinton Avenue light-rail line. Metrolinx confirmed at a public meeting last Thursday that after reviewing feedback, a station at Ferrand Drive in North York would remain in the plans. Initially, there were plans to scrap the station. Ferrand Drive is in Flemingdon Park, one of the city’s priority neighbourhoods whose dense population would benefit from a transit stop. The construction of the Aga Khan Museum nearby was also a factor in keeping the station, said a Metrolinx spokesperson. These are the things that happen when people speak up – here, it helped shape and ultimately improve a critical piece of transportation infrastructure. Not bad. Hopefully the Feeling Congested? series can yield those kinds of ideas that shape our transit future. At the York Civic Centre Monday, the first session, from 4 to 6 p.m., drew a sparse turnout. But it’s apparent one common concern that’s surfacing is how the potential funding tools – percentage of a property tax, parking levies, fuel taxes, highway tolls, among others – would be applied and to whom and for how long. These are critical questions. These are conversations we must have. And it’s good they’re happening now. These are conversations that don’t need to be restricted to election time. So, we must understand that the contributions we make to our communities today can have far-reaching impacts. It’s how communities grow, evolve and prosper. newsroom

Is sexual orientation now a prerequisite for getting elected? Really, who cares? If she is a capable leader, let her get on with leading. If not, then let’s have an election and find out who is ready to give good, honest leadership, regardless of their sexual preference. Mary P. Nicol

We feed a ‘Golden Goose’ but get no eggs

iven that this week marks the beginning of my 15th year writing this column, I decided to go back and look over my first submission. Interestingly enough, the topic for my very first column was about something very relevant today: property tax. Then provincial finance minister Ernie Eves had just announced the implementation of a new property tax policy worked out by the Progressive Conservative government under then premier Mike Harris. This new policy was to end the flow of tax dollars from the province to the city, and make the new City of Toronto solely responsible for its own finances. At that time I made the observation in that first column that it would be impossible to keep property taxes from rising under such a policy. The

reason for this was due to the fact that Toronto is an excessively large and complicated municipal government that will always be expensive to maintain and operate. The only real reason for having such a policy was to force Toronto city council into becoming miserly out of fear of offending the Progressive Conservatives at Queen’s Park. As I said back then, the new policy had placed a Damocles sword over Toronto, where any mistakes made in the financial management of the city would result in even more provincial services being downloaded onto it.

The business community, would be protected from excessive tax increases, and were indeed through provincial legislation. What I warned about - and it is still relevant to heed more than a decade later - is what implications the new tax policy would have for property taxes on homeowners. Based upon my investigations into how the tax burden came to be managed in other amalgamated municipalities, I could not see the property tax system ever achieving real “fairness”. Having a city that was far too large to be governed effectively by city council, and a civil service that was far too isolated from accountability, the “ordinary” property taxpayer would simply be unable to influence the political process. So now here we are, well over a decade later, and yet

again facing an increase in our property taxes despite having an allegedly taxpayer-respecting mayor, along with rising user fees and other service charges. The Golden Goose is sill laying very valuable golden eggs, but it’s not us, the average citizen, who gets to collect them and make use their wealth as we once did. Frankly, the people who are being singled out and attacked by Mayor Ford and his supporters as being the cause of our financial problems is just a wild-goose chase. We need a more systematic review of where our tax dollars flow in the system and less ideological rhetoric that is nothing more than selfserving sound bites. n Joe Cooper is a long-time East York resident and community activist.

To the editor: Basic to a healthy democracy is an informed and experienced citizenry. Since holding political office is an integral part of educating members of a democracy, political office should be shared as much as is reasonably possible. Given that politicians are prone to develop a sense of entitlement to their public office, they clearly need legislative help to make them see when it is time to give someone else a chance to serve and learn.

it’s hard not to see it as political as well. After all, those three were allies of left-ofcentre Mayor Miller: Holyday was then firmly entrenched in the right-wing opposition. All of this is – or should be – beside the point. The reality is that everything that goes on having to do with politicians is political. Everyone who comes to city hall does so with an agenda — whether improving their neighbourhood, improving the lot of the disadvantaged, or finding the gravy that’s costing taxpaying Torontonians an arm and a leg. Sometimes, their agenda is more visceral: putting politicians with whom they disagree on these points out of office. The legal system might be a weapon of choice for those players from time to time. But whatever the motive anyone has for engaging it, once engaged the system has a way of sorting things out. And if politicians are found to be in breach, they really only has one enemy to blame – themselves.

The City ofToronto andToronto & Region Conservation (TRCA) are hosting a public event to introduce you to the East DonTrail Environmental Assessment (EA) study.The event will be a drop-in open house for viewing study materials and one-on-one discussions with members of the project team.

t’s been a big winter for the left-wing anti-Rob-Ford illuminati. They nearly toppled our virtuous, football-loving mayor for the crime of loving football too much. Fresh from that near-total-victory, the skulking fiends saw fruits of their other investigations – in the form of a compliance audit of Mayor Ford’s 2010 election campaign. This is serious business: the same pack of villains saw another sometime-Ford-ally, Giorgio Mammoliti, could be facing prosecution for his own alleged electoral sins in 2010. If you listen to the mayor and his allies, the scoundrels are engaged in an unfounded, partisan and political attack on democratically-elected politicians, the like of which has never been seen. And if you believe that, you haven’t spent much time watching Toronto politics. Because while it’s true that this latest round of legal challenges brought forward have come from citizens who it’s fair to say don’t agree with the direction in which Ford is taking the city – using the courts to win fights you can’t win at the ballot box is not an exclusively left-wing tactic. In the 2006-2010 term, it was councillors on the left who were in the spotlight. Former councillors Sandra Bussin and Adrian Heaps both incurred stiff legal fees to deal with issues while in office. When the two councillors – along with Mammoliti, then an ally of Mayor David Miller – had their expenses reimbursed, future Deputy Mayor Doug Holyday took the city to court, and won. Holyday’s move was a matter of principle, to be sure – he didn’t think taxpayers should be reimbursing legal fees for members of council – but

It hopes to meet with Ontario’s new education minister, once appointed, as well as a representative of the Elementary Teachers’ Federation Andrea Williams of Ontario. “We continue to contact, to be in touch with leaders of political parties, In a sense we’re really trying to put pressure on all parties so that this issue stays on their radar. to reach a timely solution to minimize the hurt that this is doing to children, and to schools, and I also think to teachers themselves,” Williams said. “It’s about keeping our public schools strong, and unfortunately, if this goes on there’s going to be longer term damage.” Williams said she worries the current situation is driving students out of the public school system. She also worries about students whose parents can’t afford to make up for the lack of extracurriculars by enrolling them in programs outside of school. “A lot of parents can’t do that,” she said. “It’s really tough for low-income families and for single parents to do that for their children, and that seems to us to be really undermining the quality of opportunity, which concerns us.” She noted not being able to participate in school Canada’s largest extracurriculars such as sports could keep students Home Inspection from earning scholarships to attend post-secondary company is education. expanding in As well as sports, other extracurricular cancelled programs include arts, music, science and academic Toronto!! assistance clubs, as well as school trips, dances, concerts Enjoy the freedom and and plays. rewards of owning your Group members are optimistic Premier-designate own business!!

Leaside select hockey tourney opens today T h e L e a s i d e Mi n o r Ho c k e y Association’s 23rd annual select invitational tournament, set to run today through Sunday at numerous local arenas, is expected to involve more than 1,300 players from more than 70 teams. They’re separated into 11 different age-groups, from tyke through to midget. This year’s tournament will feature games at Angela James, Canlan Victoria Park, De La Salle, Oriole, Pleasantview, Victoria Village

East York Tanev’s notches first NHL goal

and Leaside Memorial Gardens arenas. Sunday’s championship game slate is split between Leaside Memorial and De La Salle. The well-regarded tournament has the generous support of many local businesses and many others who donate their time, services and products to help make it a great experience for participating hockey families. More info at http://leasidehockey. com/

An East York Collegiate grad has scored his first National Hockey League (NHL) goal – and his timing couldn’t have been better. Chris Tanev’s overtime goal with just 19.3 seconds remaining gave his Vancouver Canucks a 3-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers on Monday, Feb. 4. A stay-at-home defenceman, the East York born-and-raised native is unlikely to turn into a goal scoring machine, but his goal, in his 63rd NHL game, spread out over three seasons, now gives him five points for his NHL career, as of the Feb. 4 game.

He was set up by a couple of scoring machines with the Sedin brothers (Henrik and Daniel) working out a little give and go in the corner before passing the puck out to Tanev, rushing in from the blueline, who fired in a well-aimed wrist shot. In his post game, locker-room interview, with his teammates chanting Tan-man, Tan-man, Tanev was thrilled but sheepish. “It was awesome, it was fun,” he told a media scrum. “It was good that we got the win.” Asked to hold the puck up, he acknowledged: “It took a while but I’ll definitely be keeping this.”

Real estate

Asked to describe the goal, he said: “Hank and Danny (Henrik Sedin and Daniel Sedin), a little give and go and all the (Edmonton) guys were watching them and I just came in off the blueline and shot it and I think their guy screened the goalie and it went in so I’m happy.” It marked a long road for Tanev who, at one point in his mid-teens, after being rejected by triple-A teams, was left playing hockey only with his Goliaths school team at East York Collegiate. Prior to that he attended Cosburn Middle School and Presteign Heights Elementary School.

>>>from page 1 Davis agreed. “The Toronto school board approved $70 million to address long standing capital needs for these schools, and the provincial government put a freeze on it,” Davis said. “I think the school board though needs to say very clearly, we still stand behind those priorities, and we stand behind investment money in these schools. And I think that the point was made clearly last week that our community won’t let them walk away from their obligations to represent our needs.” She added she’s proud of the parents for standing up for their schools, which she said

have been overlooked for too long. “The parents in our community feel betrayed by both the school board and the provincial government,” she said. “We need to get rid of the portables and ensure that our kids get the same quality of school and education experience as others in this city ... If there isn’t real change made, the credibility of this provincial government and the school board will be dashed.” Saros said the group, which has also circulated petitions, will keep fighting for funding, and will likely consider a letter-writing campaign to the province as its next step. “It’s our turn,” he said. “We’ve waited long enough.”

Municipal Class Environmental Assessment Notice of Study Commencement The Process The study will follow the requirements set out in the Municipal Class EA document (amended 2011). It will define the problem, develop and evaluate alternative solutions, assess impacts of the proposed solutions, and identify measures to lessen any adverse impacts. Members of the public and interest groups will have opportunities to provide their input at key stages throughout the study.

Public Consultation

Study Overview The City ofToronto has initiated a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) study to assess flooding problems during heavy rainstorms in Basement Flooding Area 1 (see map) and to recommend solutions to alleviate future basement and surface flooding in this area.

Background The City ofToronto has historically experienced severe storms, which have caused the recurrence of surface and basement flooding. On August 19, 2005, the City experienced a severe storm that produced flooding of many residents’ homes, erosion in ravines and watercourses, and damage to City roads, bridges, and sewers. In response, City Council approved the “Basement Flooding Work Plan” to undertake investigations to alleviate future flooding in 34 basement flooding areas, including Area 1.

Two Public Information Centres (PICs) are planned for this study.The first PIC is tentatively planned for late Spring 2013.
