Toronto-Danforth MP Craig Scott looks over a map of First World War battles at his constituency office. Scott’s grandfather was a veteran of the First World War, having served with the Nova Scotia Highlanders.
More than 400 people are expected to take part in a Remembrance Day ceremony in East York on Monday, Nov. 11. The parade begins at East York Collegiate Institute at 10:30 a.m. and proceeds south on Coxwell Avenue to the East York Civic Centre (850 Coxwell Ave.) A Remembrance Day service begins at 10:45 a.m.in the civic centre’s gardens, site of the East York cenotaph. As part of the service, Royal Canadian Navy retired seaman Jack Aldred will read the poem In Flanders Fields and the First Light Scout Band will sing Remember Them Well. A flypast over the ceremony will be performed by the Canadian Harvard Aircraft Association and the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum.
Ring reminds MP of veteran grandfather ANDREW PALAMARCHUK apalamarchuk@insidetoronto.com Craig Scott has a daily reminder of his grandfather’s service and sacrifice during the First World War. For the past 15 years, the
Toronto-Danforth MP has been wearing the ring that his grandfather Ernest Thomas Martin wore during battle. Scott’s grandmother gave Martin the ring in late 1917 just before his ship set sail from Halifax to England, where the
troops were trained prior to going into battle. SPECIAL RING Scott said the ring, with Martin’s initials ETM carved into its face, was a symbol of
love. Martin fought with the 85th Battalion Nova Scotia Highlanders, taking part in a series of battles during the last 100-day push of the war. He lost his leg in one of >>>MP, page 6

All-female cast in The Taming of the Shrew HILARY CATON eym@insidetoronto.com
Jacqui Burke, the creator of Jaybird Productions, wanted to put a twist on a classic and did so by directing an all-female cast for one of Shakespeare’s most popular play’s The Taming of the Shrew. “I was interested in exploring the power issues in the play divorced of gender,” said Burke. “Focusing on how the two genders are so much alike as opposed to emphasising on what are small differences.” The cast will hit the stage Nov. 14 at 1803 Danforth Ave. and will run until Nov 29. Jaybird Productions’ first play was David Mamet’s Oleanna. The Taming of the Shrew is the second community theatre
production since its inception three years ago. Wr i t t e n b y W i l l i a m Shakespeare, this comedic and controversial story tells the tale of one woman Katherine, the “shrew,” who is courted and eventually tamed into an obedient bride by Petruchio through various tactics, while her sister Bianca’s suitors engage in a competition for her affection and hand in marriage. The idea to work with an all-female cast was brewing in the back of Burke’s mind for at least a decade, she said. And with the creation of her production company, she just thought it was time to push the boundaries of community theatre. “I had to justify in my own mind starting my own company because there’s a lot of
community theatre out there and they’re doing fine work. But I was bumping into this problem with community theatres that were not doing certain shows or when they did it had to be in a classic reserved way,” said Burke. “There are some projects that I wanted to get done that weren’t and I thought: I’ll make this company and quietly do these projects, one a year that I’ve always wanted to do.” She held an information night and many women were interested in trying their hand at some roles that were always reserved for men. According to Burke, since word has gotten out about the play she’s gotten some kickback from theatre goers who have been calling the production “the lesbian show.”
“Yeah we’re going to have two women kissing, fine. But the intention is not to do ‘the lesbian show.’” said Burke.“It’s disappointing to hear that.” Community support But Burke has received support from community theatre lovers, too, for the message she’s putting out by doing a play like this. It’s about showing people that if given the opportunity “women can do riveting, funny and exceptional theatre,” she said. One of those lucky women is Marissa King, in the lead male role of Petruchio. “I was really intrigued first of all by being able to play all these great roles because with Shakespeare there are always few roles for women. There’s
a big role and maid number two,” said King. “I just liked her concept of the idea to get rid of the gender issue and just make it about these relationships and I thought: This sounds like an adventure....so why not get on board?” She admits that initially she wondered how this play was going to work with just women, but soon discovered to drop the gender labels and start focusing on the relationships at play. According to King, the play is without a doubt looked at from a feminist lens and tries to turn the play on its end. “I think the original that everybody thinks of, is very much about a man taming a woman and him saying, I’m the better gender and you have to obey me,” said
King. “What we’ve chosen to do is not about that. It comes at it from a different angle. It’s more about coming together as a couple and as equals. The message is more about working together rather than one dominating over the other.” Working with an all-female cast has been a warm and welcoming experience, King said. “There’s a different energy in the room, when there are no men around.” Burke also feels there is more support with a female cast. “These are extremely talented women bringing their best game and it’s been very rewarding,” said Burke.

very year we don the crimson poppy to honour our veterans for their service and sacrifice. We donate to the Royal Canadian Legion so that they may continue to support them. We reflect upon their contribution to our country with ceremonies on Nov. 11 and a moment of silence. Unfortunately for many, that’s the extent of their personal commitment to the occasion. What else can one do? The answer is much more – especially today with the aid of social media and online tools. In fact, it’s become so easy to learn, spread awareness of our history and share the stories of our veterans that the question becomes, why wouldn’t you do more? For starters, visit bit.ly/174PWqT where we list local Remembrance Day our view services, veteran stories and where we’ll have photo gallerWe can do so ies of those ceremonies as they much to share happen.

Time for mayor to do the honourable thing
D
uring this past week’s turmoil over Mayor Rob Ford’s various apologies and confessions, I felt terribly old-fashioned. Yes, politicians obfuscate and bend the truth, but rarely do they outright lie in the manner that our mayor has regarding the crack allegations of the past months. Worse, when caught, he did not do the honourable thing and step down, or at least take a leave of absence. That is where I feel oldfashioned; when you are caught doing a dishonourable thing, you do the honourable thing. This is where I have been feeling slightly old-fashioned watching this whole sordid mess unfold. The world that I grew up in once had values and standards that stood outside of one’s self. They were social values that most people agreed with as being the proper way to live.
These values were reflected in the way that people were expected to behave, not just in our laws, but in society in general. If you take a look at any service club, any organization, even just a group of friends, you will see that certain values are commonly shared. important value If there is a single most important value that is held at the top of all social values, it is honesty. This is particularly true for a position of leadership. Yes, from time to time the wrong people get into positions of power, but there are generally ways of dealing with those mistakes. The reality is that simply saying “I am sorry” is not enough and certainly does not wipe the slate clean. It is only the beginning of a long path of rehabilitation for the person who must prove their trustworthiness.
joe cooper watchdog To me, Mayor Ford appears to have simply gone through the motions of an apology. He really does not seem to understand the extent of the damage that he has done to his personal reputation. his role Likewise he does not appear to understand his role as mayor as it is defined under the City of Toronto Act. His role is to bring city council to a consensus, not battle with it, and to represent all interests found there. In the state that he is now, having been caught in a lie and exposed, how can his word be trusted? A moral or mature person would understand this and step down or at
least step back and let others perform their duties. Ford, at this point, can still be the symbolic mayor, but certainly his authority over council is finished. The problem is he does not appear to understand this reality. Until he does we are going to see months of wasted time in petty debates and deepening public confusion. There is no dishonour in being an honourable person and stepping down when one is in over one’s head. There is dishonour in holding on to a role that one has exhausted through mismanagement and bad decisions. It is time for Mayor Ford to honour his role and either take a leave of absence or step down now. Joe Cooper is a long-time East York resident and community activist.

MP reminded of sacrifices of those who served >>>from page 1 the greatest victories of the Great War: the breaching of Germany’s DrocourtQueant Line near Arras in northern France during the third battle of Arras which took place in late August and early September 1918. Martin’s leg was struck by
artillery fire. The Nova Scotia Highlanders fought in kilts and were dubbed by the Germans as the “ladies from hell.” Martin used his battle kilt as a tourniquet for the mangled leg, Scott said. “He laid in the mud for at
least one night before he was retrieved the next day and obviously sent back for medical care,” said Scott. Amputation He added that his grandfather underwent 14 operations related to his amputation
before he passed away in 1938. Martin’s ring was passed onto Scott 15 years ago, and he’s been wearing it since. “It constantly reminds me of how much we owe previous generations,” Scott said. “At the same time it reminds me of culturally how
much we take for granted... Many, many people sacrificed so that we could all continue and thrive, and my own story is just a microcosm of that,” he said.

Many children know that Remembrance Day is a solemn time to commemorate soldiers’ achievements and sacrifices and to pay respect to solders who died in battle. But they might not know the significance behind the poppy or why we commemorate on November 11. Here is a brief history of some Remembrance Day traditions to share with the kids. Remembrance Day was once known as Armistice Day because it marks the signing of the armistice that put an end to the hostilities of World War I. On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of the year, guns fell silent after more than four years of continuous warfare between the Germans and Allied troops. Armistice Day was renamed Remembrance Day after World War II to commemorate soldiers from both world wars. It is now used as a way to pay hommage
to any fallen soldier. In Canada, Remembrance Day official national ceremonies are held at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. Events begin with the tolling of the Carillon in the Peace Tower, during which members of the Canadian Forces participate and congregate at Confederation Square. Similar ceremonies take place in provincial capitals across the country.
What about the poppies? One of the unifying symbols of Remembrance Day is the poppy that is worn to honor lost soldiers. The bold, red color of the flower has become an enduring symbol of those who died so that others may be free. The poppy became a symbol for a specific reason. Some of the most concentrated fighting of World War I took place in Flanders, a region in western Belgium.

The only living thing to survive was the poppy flower, which bloomed with the coming of the warm weather the year after fighting in the region had ceased. Poppies grow in disturbed soil and can lie dormant in the ground without germinating. Without the war, they may have never come to the surface. John McCrae, a doctor serving with the Canadian Armed Forces, was moved by the vision of poppies flowering in Flanders and wrote a poem titled “In Flanders Fields.” After the poem was published, it received international acclaim, and the poppy became a popular symbol of those lost in battle. Remembrance Day is celebrated every year, providing people humbled by the sacrifices of soldiers an opportunity to remember those soldiers’ efforts to secure freedom.

That is the one thing that one can safely write, in a column that met a late Tuesday afternoon deadline: just a few hours after Mayor Rob Ford made his stunning admission – that he has indeed smoked crack cocaine – and a few minutes after his late-in-the-day news conference that he still means to be mayor. Things are moving quickly, and no doubt as this shows up in newspaper boxes and mail slots things will have no doubt developed. But this remains: the mayor has admitted to smoking crack cocaine, sometime last year, while in office. In doing so, regardless of whether he stays in his office, he has effectively absented himself from his role as mayor. Council won’t, and really shouldn’t, support him. Council is going to have to find a way to steer itself over the next year. At the next council meeting, council will take some steps toward doing that. Willowdale Councillor John Filion has brought forward a motion to temporarily strip
david nickle the city the mayor of all his powers, seizing for council the ability to appoint an executive committee and deputy mayor. Denzil Minnan-Wong, the Don Valley East Councillor who has been one of Ford’s more effective lieutenants on that executive committee, is asking the mayor to simply leave and look after himself. There was also word Tuesday that the mayor’s brother Doug could be off the budget committee, after he demanded Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair’s resignation over the chief’s comments when he unveiled the existence of the video that appears to show Rob Ford smoking crack. That sets up an infrastructure that might allow council to control its own agenda. But the task will just be beginning. In a few weeks, council will have before it the 2014 operating budget to debate and pass. This is an area where a strong mayor either leads with a plan, or provides an idea to oppose.
Who will give voice to the vision for this budget? Karen Stintz? One of the other pretenders to the mayoralty next year? Now, almost certainly council will keep the city running, the tax rates reasonable and the services intact. But anyone who thinks it will be smooth need only look at the flailing debate over subways versus light rail versus other subways to abandon that idea. Council will also be making up its mind on the Billy Bishop Airport extension some time before the next election. Once again, some sort of decision will emerge – but it, like the budget, will emerge from chaos. If Ford were gone, then Norm Kelly, the avuncular councillor from ScarboroughAgincourt, could ably step in and guide matters, in the manner of Ford’s mandate. But as deputy to the crippled wreck that the Ford administration will have become, it will be difficult for him to do any better. Ford has left an awful, filthy mess for others to clean up.

Transit group launches new campaign

ot much has been heard from the Greater Toronto CivicAction Alliance since CEO Mitzie Hunter jumped ship to stand in a Scarborough by-election for the provincial Liberals. But after a few months of relative silence, the advocacy group has launched a new campaign in support of its Your 32 initiative, highlighting the many benefits of funding public transit. Available at the group’s website, CivcAction’s list of 32 reasons claims better-funded transit will boost job creation, increase quality of life and improve civic pride, among other things.

Hospital announced it is launching the Concussion Research Centre. It will be one of the world’s first to solely research the effects of concussions on children and youth. President Sheila Jarvis called the recent a n n o u n c e m e n t “a n important day in the life of young people who play sports...We are focused here at Holland Bloorview at pioneering new ways to help young people with disabilities achieve their goals and participate fully in life.” While the dangers of concussions have been in the spotlight recently, most of the attention has focused on adults. Bu t c h i l d re n a n d youth are significantly more vulnerable to the brain injury because their brains and bodies are still growing, said Dr. Michelle Keightley, senior clinician scientist at the Bloorview Research Institute.
Ten to 15 per cent of players in Ontario minor hockey leagues suffer concussions every year, which works out to two or three players on each team, or about 36,000 province-wide, she said. Concussions are responsible for about 38 per cent of hospital emergency room visits by Ontario children and teenagers every year. “This (the number of children suffering concussions) is really a call to action,” Keightley said. “Despite the growing interest in sport concussion, despite understanding it is a common injury, despite knowing childhood is a time when they are even more vulnerable to this injury, nowhere is there any research or clinical program that is solely dedicated to youth.” The centre will conduct research in a number of areas including challenging routine advice that young victims should

rest completely following a concussion and properly managing treatment so children and youth can get back to activities. “It is our hope doing all this we will have some pretty happy campers who are ready to get back to doing what they love,” Keightley said.

during hockey. His team had already partnered with Keightley to do some baseline testing and it was evident Killin’s cognitive, strength and balance abilities were impaired for quite a while after his injury. “I think all young athletes should take concussions quite seriously. After all, it’s your brain, right?” he said. “What’s more important, three more weeks in the play-
offs or the rest of your life with your brain?” T h e c e n t re i s b e i n g funded through grants by the Canadian government and a $1-million donation from the Trillium Automobile Dealers Association. Keightley and her team are receiving $1.2 million over five years from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Canada’s federal funding agency for health research, to conduct research to improve the identification, assessment and management of children and youth with concussions. Research that emerges from the centre will go a long way to better managing concussions, York-South Weston MPP Laura Albanese said. “This research centre is the first of its kind and it will make a big difference in the everyday lives of our children,” she said. Former Toronto Maple Leafs right winger and Hockey Hall of Fame member Ron Ellis was in the audience for the announcement.
