Find out what’s happening in your community / 32

For Rob Ford, this year’s Ford Fest is about more than just a free community barbecue – it’s about turning the page on his “most terrible year” and celebrating the fact that he came out alive on the other side of it. “The last Ford Fest, I think I was up for about a minute and then I had to go – I was just in so much pain. That’s when my cancer was just starting and I was in no shape to be there,”

One-woman show aims to tackle the stigma of suicide

Novelist to lead two workshops at next month’s International Festival of Authors

Comedienne Shelley Marshall brings Hold Mommy’s Cigarette to Etobicoke School of the Arts CYNTHIA REASON creason@insidetoronto.com Etobicoke School of the Arts will kick off Mental Health Awareness Month with equal doses of heart, humour and honesty on Oct. 1, courtesy of an award-winning onewoman show tackling the taboo topic of suicide. The brainchild of Leslieville’s Shelley Marshall, Hold Mommy’s Cigarette is the autobiographical tale of one family’s struggle with mental illness, as told through the voices of three generations of women – that of Marshall herself, her mother, and her grandmother. During the 70-minute show, the 50-year-old comedienne/writer/actor not only deals with her father’s suicide when she was just seven, but also reveals her own suicide attempt later on in life – and how she emerged triumphant from that struggle. “I now choose to say that it was his mental illness that took his life,” Marshall said of her late father, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia, spent three years in hospital, and had attempted suicide several times before he ‘succeeded’. “Even the word ‘succeeded’ bothers me, because, I mean, what’s successful about it? “Suicide is something that we don’t talk about, and that we don’t even know how to talk about. So, I think it all starts with language and

expressing ourselves in ways that people feel more comfortable with. I’ve become more freer in finding the language of how to talk about suicide in a way that it’s not so judgemental and so that there’s not a lot of guilt and shame around it.” Ann Agar, the parent volunteer who helped organize Marshall’s upcoming Etobicoke School of the Arts show, said she knew immediately after watching her “funny, heart-wreching and empowering” performance that she wanted to bring Hold Mommy’s Cigarette to Etobicoke. Over the past two years, Agar said the local community has tragically lost two teens to suicide, with “devastating effects” on those teens’ classmates, families, friends and neighbours. “So, when issues that we all face, like stress and anxiety and depression, cycle into addiction or abuse or, most tragically, teen suicide, I feel like it’s up to each of us to do everything that we can to protect our kids and to try to prevent it from ever happening again,” Agar said. “So that’s my motivation for doing this. Shelley presents a really rare opportunity to hear from a suicide survivor. She tells a very real story, she presents it in a really brilliant way, and as far as I’m concerned, everybody needs to hear the message – because if we’re able to save anyone, then it’s

Festival runs at Harbourfront Centre Oct. 22 to Nov. 1 New Toronto’s Brian Francis is set to reveal some of the trade secrets that helped make him a best-selling novelist at the upcoming International Festival of Authors. Francis – whose first book, Fruit, was a 2009 Canada Reads finalist and was named one of Amazon’s ‘100 Canadian Books to Read in a Lifetime’ – will teach two workshops during the festival, which takes place at Harbourfront Centre from Oct. 22 to Nov. 1.

all worth it.” With the award-winning Hold Mommy’s Cigarette – which Marshall’s performed more than 100 times over the last two years – Marshall said she hopes to change people’s perception of suicide, from something so shameful it can’t be discussed, to something that can be prevented through open and honest dialogue. “Suicide is Stage 4 mental illness,” she said. “When people die of suicide, we need to say they died from mental illness. We need to prevent it,

not make people feel guilty about it.” As for the Oct. 1 show at Etobicoke School of the Arts, Marshall said she hopes students in the audience will walk away empowered to express themselves. Hold Mommy’s Cigarette comes to Etobicoke School of the Arts’ Nancy Main Theatre, 675 Royal York Rd., on Thursday, Oct. 1 at 7 p.m. Tickets are just $10 and can be purchased at esainfo.ca

Seniors deserve a nation-wide care strategy T aking care of an aging senior can be a heavy burden, particularly when they’re suffering from a complex health issue. It’s a day-to-day struggle for families and individual caregivers, but it’s also about to become a massive problem for our province and country. According to the Canadian Medical Association, our senior population is about to double in the next 20 years and the 85 and older age group will quadruple. Health-care issues will similarly increase, including cases of dementia. The latest numbers from the Alzheimer Society of Canada show that 14.9 per cent of Canadians 65 and older are currently living with our view dementia. That’s projected to jump by 47 per cent in just 16 We are facing years. This warning was delivered an impending to the editors at Metroland wave of dementia Media earlier this year by mental health professionals and it’s the reason we undertook a special investigative series on seniors and dementia, publishing this week. We heard the difficult stories. A husband who can’t leave home with his once-perfect match because his wife now behaves like an unruly five year old. Brilliant minds, once highly respected in their fields, struggling with simple daily tasks. Children of aging parents with dementia crippled by the financial cost of quality health care. South Asian families giving up their livelihood to care for a parent at home because they’re too culturally shamed to put them in a long-term care home or even admit they have dementia. We’re putting a spotlight on the issue – the challenges that currently exist in addressing the coming wave, but also the efforts made so far, the innovations being developed and the positive stories that offer hope for our future. Canada needs a long-term strategy for senior health care and dementia, one that takes into account the perspectives of people currently affected by the disease and establishes sufficient funding to offer quality care. With the federal election only weeks away, it’s the perfect time to apply pressure on policy makers. Visit www.insidetoronto.com/dementia to get a sense of the bigger picture. Then ask your local federal candidate what they propose to do to help our population as it ages.

The good and the bad of term limits Seasoned councillors have value...

I

t should hardly come as a surprise that Beaches-East York Councillor Mary-Margaret McMahon wasn’t able to summon more than a smidgen of support for her motion to place term limits on municipal politicians. Being a city councillor in Toronto, after all, is a good gig. Governing the largest city in the country provides interesting and varied work for the diligent. For the vainglorious, there are plenty of opportunities to see oneself on television, hear oneself on the radio, read about oneself in the newspaper. For the opportunistic, there are other perquisites

david nickle the city like travel and nights out at the film festival and ball games. And for everyone seeking to pay off a mortgage in Toronto’s overvalued real estate market, there’s a six-figure salary attached. For the cynical, that’s enough to explain the vote at executive committee on McMahon’s motion Monday to ask that term limits be included in revisions to the City of Toronto Act. But there are good arguments for keeping councillors past their best-before date. Toronto is a complicated government, and it makes sense that at least a few of its overseers should be well-schooled in its operations. Given that there are no formal requirements that

... but not all politicians are created equal

a candidate for council go to councillor school before taking the job, it is essential that at least a few council members are able to contribute their experience and understanding of the place. Indeed, some of council’s most reliable members are its veterans: people like Shelly Carroll, Norm Kelly, Pam McConnell and Denzil Minnan-Wong. Before he stepped down, veteran councillor Howard Moscoe was able to play city hall like a well-tuned instrument that, if you agreed with his progressive politics, you’d count that a good thing. The trouble, of course, is that not all veterans are created equal.

Giorgio Mammoliti by way of example has been a city councillor since 1995, and in that time made a name for himself primarily as a showboater and class clown. Yet he has proven himself undefeatable in his ward, such being the power of incumbency. He is not the only one. It is useful to wonder, then, just how much value would we lose on city council if it were made up more completely of other bright lights – people like Kristyn Wong-Tam, Josh Matlow, Mike Layton, Josh Colle come to mind – who are working in their second term? And what would we gain in having a cadre of councillors who were treating the job as a short stretch of public service rather than a long-term career choice?

Metrolinx eyes new GO station sites Uber users petition city to make List of sites is part of Regional Express Rail plan RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com Metrolinx is studying more than 50 locations across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area for new GO Transit stations as part of its Regional Express Rail (RER) plan. Devising the list of sites is part of the provincial transit planning agency’s $13.5-billion expansion of the GO network. It will span seven rail corridors and is intended to transform the commuter service to one akin to the TTC subway system, with electric trains offering daily frequent service. It’s scheduled to be completed within a decade. A final list of preferred station locations will be presented to Metrolinx’s board of directors next spring for approval, but until then CEO Bruce McCuaig said it is “premature” to estimate how many new GO stations will eventu-

ally be approved, and where, for RER expansion. There are currently 63 stations on the GO network with another seven approved locations, including Downsview Park, Caledonia and Mount Dennis in Toronto, undergoing designing and planning approvals. “It’s going to be less than 50, but I can’t really say what the (final) number will be,” McCuaig told reporters following Metrolinx’s quarterly board meeting Tuesday morning. “Over the course of the winter we’ll be doing outreach with municipalities and other

communities with the expectation of returning in spring with a shortlist.” Part of the challenge, said McCuaig, is dealing with factors including securing government environmental approvals, accounting for population densities, and minimizing congestion from existing stations. “None of the potential stations have approvals and some of the sites are in builtup areas, others in green fields. It will vary,” he said. “For something that’s already approved, typically the construction is a three-year period, but there’s still planning, design and engineering before you get to that point.” Finishing RER will represent the single biggest growth opportunity for GO since its inception in 1967, said Metrolinx chair Rob Prichard. “It should be the best decade in our history,” he said.

rideshare company a legal service Thousands have signed an online petition in support of Uber. As of Monday, the petition had almost 25,000 names calling for Toronto council to vote for regulation of the private rideshare company’s operations so that it’s considered a legal service. The company’s popularity – 20,000 new users join per week according to recent figures provided by Uber – has come at the expense of cab companies who say they can’t fairly compete. Council will consider the issue at its Sept. 30 meeting. LANES EXTENDED ALONG RICHMOND wBIKE

Toronto Mayor John Tory and Ontario Transportation Minister Steven Del Duca are among the invited dignitaries for a transportation summit hosted by the Toronto Region Board of Trade. The event promises to bring together senior-level transportation industry executives with lawmakers to address how the Toronto region can best spend the billions of dollars in transit funding allocated by the province. Both Tory and Del Duca are

scheduled to make keynote speeches at the event set for Monday, Nov. 16 at the Westin Harbour Castle Toronto hotel. Visit www.bot.com PARK TO GET GO transit LINE wDOWNSVIEW

Metrolinx says a new GO rail station for Downsview Park will open at the same time as the TTC’s planned subway station. The new service is part of an expansion that will see increased rail service on most GO lines within a decade. The new Downsview Park stop will run on the Barrie line and connect with the underconstruction TTC station of the same name, which is part of a northern subway extension of the Spadina line. It’s scheduled to open in late 2017 or early 2018. Rahul Gupta is Metroland Media Toronto’s transit reporter. Reach him on Twitter: @TOinTransit

Franklin Horner one room schoolhouse designed by E.J. Lennox in early 1900s Photo Spotlight denise harris history corner In 1910, when the Ontario and Quebec Railway decided to expropriate part of School Section 12’s schoolyard in Alderwood, the school’s trustees made an arrangement that the railway would pay for a new school site, erect the new school, and donate $150 in cash for the inconvenience. E.J. Lennox, designer of Casa Loma and Toronto’s Old City Hall, was hired as architect, and the result, seen above, was certainly one of the most attractive “one room schoolhouses” ever built in Toronto. Located on the north side of Horner Avenue, west of Gamma Street, this school was the beginning of Franklin Horner Public School, which closed in 1984 and is now a very active com-

Majority of food bank clients live on $6 a day after bills paid: Noble >>>from page 1 Toronto, Daily Bread and North York Harvest food banks’ officials argued. “One of the most important findings of the report is the increasing demand on our services as rates of poverty move from the city core to the inner suburbs, a development largely the result of skyrocketing real estate costs leaving people looking for a place to live,” Ryan Noble, executive director of North York Harvest Food Bank, told reporters gathered Monday morning at Daily Bread’s Etobicoke offices for the report’s release. Food bank officials issued the report to coincide with National Hunger Awareness Week Sept. 21 to 25. Nearly 900,000 people visited a Toronto food bank from April of last year through March. That is a 12 per cent increase since the 2008 recession. Last year, more than 1,000 food bank clients across Toronto answered a 31-question survey to provide a picture of who’s hungry in the city. “Today I almost didn’t make it (because I couldn’t afford transportation)... I scrounged up the bus fare... how will I get home now... I don’t know,” one survey respondent said. Some 27 per cent of people using a food bank for less than six months reported it was due to job loss, while 20 per cent reported they were new to the area, and 19 per cent reported being disabled. That migration of the poor out of downtown Toronto required North York Harvest to expand its traditional mission of providing food to member agencies to now operating food banks of its own in three priority neighbourhoods, Noble said. Growing demand created a further challenge “endemic” in the food bank sector – finding “safe, accessible, dignified” spaces to locate food banks in the suburbs, he argued.

Ryan Noble, North York Harvest Food Bank executive director (left), Gail Nyberg, Daily Bread Food Bank executive director and Richard Matern, Daily Bread’s senior manager of research, spoke to the media Monday about its’ justreleased, Who’s Hungry: A Tale of Two Cities, the 2015 profile of hunger in Toronto.

“This has created crisis conditions certainly in a very acute sense in the inner suburbs,” Noble said. “We’re funded through private donations with very little government support.” The report found children are 32 per cent of food bank clients, 51 per cent have a disability, and 38 per cent have a college diploma or university bachelor’s degree or higher. The report further found the time Daily Bread Food Bank clients accessed its services has doubled from a median period of 12 months last year to 24 months in 2015. “A lot of clients are people with disabilities, on fixed incomes and social assistance. The cost of living is far outstripping what they’re getting in income,” said Richard Matern, Daily Bread’s senior manager of research, who wrote the report. The report indicated 65 per cent of clients surveyed reported social assistance as their main income source. Housing costs represent an average 71 per cent of income of food bank clients surveyed, Matern added. “Now, more than ever,

the lack of affordable housing (in the city) needs to be addressed. Affordable housing benefits need to be considered,” he said. North York food bank’s clients have only $6 a day after paying rent and utilities, Noble reported. “If they have to take transit, that money is gone,” he said. “It limits their ability to go to a job, to buy school supplies for their children, to buy medicine.” An Ontario poverty reduction strategy may soon be joined by a City of Toronto strategy in coming months. However, poverty reduction needs to become a federal election issue, Nyberg argued. “Ask candidates at the door, how do you feel about poverty? Why is poverty not on the agenda? Is a guaranteed income a good thing? How do you feel about affordable housing?” she said. Daily Bread was expected to launch its fall food drive yesterday. North York Harvest’s drive is expected to begin this Saturday.

Sherway Gardens welcomes new stores to its mall in renovated north expansion

Harry Rosen, Sporting Life, Ted Baker London Sherway Gardens officially opened its newly renovated north expansion Tuesday. Retailers Harry Rosen, Sporting Life, Ted Baker London, Judith & Charles, Uno de 50, Maison Birks and DAVIDS are among 50 premium retailers now open in the first phase of the mall’s $550-million redevelopment. The mall’s north expansion has been three years in the making. Sherway’s redevelopment is the largest investment in a mall property ever by owner Cadillac Fairview. “Cadillac Fair view is cementing their position as offering cutting-edge retail destinations and the Sherway Gardens North Expansion demonstrates just that,” Wayne Barwise, executive vice-president of develop-

ment with Cadillac Fairview, said in a statement. “The significant investment we are making in Sherway Gardens kicks off a chain of redevelopments to come.” Cadillac Fairview mall properties coast-to-coast will see changes that will bring an “impressive mix of leading retail destinations,” Barwise said. Harry Rosen is now a 24,000-square-feet “flagship” store, a relocated Sporting Life is 38,000-square-feet, and a completely renovated Hudson’s Bay is now 225,000-square-feet. The expansion includes the opening of a redesigned Gourmet Fare food court. New restaurants are also on tap in the renovation. For many years, Sherway had only one restaurant, currently a Pickle Barrel.

Soon, a Joey’s restaurant and The Keg will also open. Sherway’s north expansion includes new parkades. Andy Traynor, Sherway Gardens’ general manager, said the mall’s new expansion is about “bold thinking.” “The launch of the North Expansion solidifies Sherway Gardens as an authority on fashion. We are pleased to be continuing our commitment to bring best-in-class retail to the more than 10 million shoppers we see every year.” Coming soon are retailers Kate Spade New York, Free People, De Beers, Indigo, Eileen Fisher, and Samsung. Saks Fifth Avenue is set to open next year. Nordstrom will open its first Toronto-area store in Sherway Gardens in 2017.

The free annual event returns to Etobicoke once again on Friday, Oct. 2 starting at 6:30 p.m. at 2200 Islington Ave. (in the parking lot of the old Sears building at Rexdale Boulevard). As always, there will be a live band, plenty of food and amusement rides for the kids – all paid for by the Ford family as a tribute to the late Doug Ford Sr., who served as MPP for the thenriding of Etobicoke-Humber from 1995 to 1999. “ We d o ( Fo r d Fe s t ) because of my dad.

his brother Doug, himself a former Etobicoke North councillor and mayoral candidate, has put out a Ford Fest invitation to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who grew up in Etobicoke a n d a t t e n d e d Jo h n G . Althouse Middle School and Richview Collegiate Institute. So far, though, the Fords h a ve n o t re c e i ve d a n y word as to whether the Conservative leader will attend or not, Ford confirmed. “ B u t w e’r e i n v i t i n g everybody – everybody’s

welcome, no matter what their political stripe is,” he said, noting that several Etobicoke and North York candidates have requested, and been granted permission to, set up campaign tables at Ford Fest. “There’s a couple Liberals, but it’s mostly Conservatives. It’s no secret we’re a Conservative family.” As far as knocking on doors goes, Ford said he’ll be taking a break from the campaign trail this year to focus on his health. “I’ve just got to take care of myself and get back in fighting form,” he said, noting that he’s been back to work full-time – sometimes taking calls from home, sometimes taking meetings in his city hall office and out in his constituency in north Etobicoke – for the last three or four weeks. “I’m feeling good, but I’ve still got some fluid that a nurse comes in every morning to drain for me and I still have to wear this belt

(abdominal binder),” Ford added, explaining why, for the time being, he’s had to swap his pin-striped business suits for Adidas-striped track suits. “So, I’m still a little bit uncomfortable, but you know what? It’s been about a year since I was first diagnosed and I could have been dead by now... “It’s been a terrible year for everyone in the family, but hopefully this year will be better and I will have many more great years to come. And I can’t wait to spend a few hours (at Ford Fest) this year, and celebrate that with our friends and supporters in Etobicoke.” Between email blasts and robocall invitations to the annual event, Ford said he and his family are expecting upwards of 10,000 people to come out to Ford Fest 2015.

I posted a new listing and advertised it in the Etobicoke Guardian and the home also appeared on the Homefinder. ca website. Within an hour of posting the property I received a call and a showing was booked. I hosted public open houses that weekend and the turnout was fantastic! Most people saw the home in the paper and attended. Advertising with the Guardian does work!

1 Increasing investment in research, fostering collaboration and improving knowledge exchange and translation. 2 Providing a surveillance system and evidence-based information on all aspects of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias to inform best practices. 3 Enhancing the competency and capacity of those delivering dementia care. 4 Increasing awareness about dementia risk factors, early diagnosis and timely interventions. 5 Strengthening the integration and co-ordination of care and service delivery across the health-care continuum. 6 Recognizing family caregiver needs and developing supports that provide options and flexibility.

DEMENTIA ADVISORY GROUP GIVES A VOICE TO THOSE AFFECTED

Mary Beth Wighton at the 2014 Walk for Alzheimer’s in Kitchener.

A fervent group of people living with dementia is out to prove life does not end with a diagnosis. The Ontario Dementia Advisory Group (ODAG) was formed in 2014 with the purpose of giving people living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias a voice in shaping Ontario’s healthcare policy. The five-member group is erasing the assumption that people living with dementia are unable to communicate their needs, wants and perspectives. They are working with the provincial government to develop an Ontario dementia strategy that will impact the province’s aging population. Mary Beth Wighton is a retired owner of a recruiting firm. She was diagnosed with probable frontotemporal dementia in 2012 at age 45. As a member of ODAG, she shares the triumphs and challenges she faces with her partner and daughter through writing and speaking engagements. Here’s what she has to say:

If you don’t hear it from the people experiencing it, they just become numbers on a spreadsheet.

1.4 MILLION PEOPLE As the Canadian population ages, we are seeing a growth in the country’s dementia problem. In 2011, 747,000 Canadians were living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias - that’s 14.9 per cent of Canadians 65 and older. Here are some stats that show how the dementia burden on Canadian society will begin to accelerate:

+

By 2031: If nothing changes, 1.4 million people will have dementia in Canada - a 47 per cent increase from 2011 levels.

+ + +

Today, the combined direct (medical) and indirect (lost earnings) costs of dementia total $33 billion per year. By 2040: That’s expected to climb to $293 billion a year, if Canada maintains its current path. In 2011, family caregivers spent in excess of 444 million unpaid hours looking after someone with cognitive impairment, including dementia.

+

This figure represents $11 billion in lost income and 227,760 full-time equivalent employees in the workforce.

By 2040: Family caregivers could spend 1.2 billion unpaid hours per year. Source: Alzheimer Society of Canada; www.alzheimer.ca

Working to defuse the dementia time bomb >>>from page 38 Centre for Aging and Brain Health Innovation. Since 2006, the government has invested more than $860 million in support of neuroscience research, allotting $182 million for the prevention, diagnosis and care of dementia. However, Lowi-Young said more needs to be done. A national strategy would ensure someone living in Northern Ontario would receive the same kind of service as someone in Vancouver, B.C. She said objectives of the national strategy should include more investment and focus in research, better integration, co-ordination and accessibility of primary, community and home-care across the country, improved training of health-care workers and better supports for family caregivers. The ASC has requested a total of $150 million over five years to create and fund the Canadian Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia Partnership, which would bring together researchers, Alzheimer societies and federal and provincial governments to develop and implement a Canadawide plan. “We need to take these objectives and make them real,” Lowi-Young said. “We need to prepare now. We can’t wait for the future.”

ONTARIO IS A LARGE PIECE

cases to 255,000, according to the Alzheimer Society of Ontario. Efforts are underway that may help diffuse the province’s dementia time bomb. In November 2014, Premier Kathleen Wynne and Health Minister Eric Hoskins mandated Indira Naidoo-Harris, the Halton MPP and parliamentary assistant to the Minister of Health and Long Term Care, to develop a comprehensive Ontario dementia strategy. “It’s critical we start planning for our future today. It’s going to involve research, supports for caregivers and care partners, but it’s also going to involve educating people,” NaidooHarris said in an interview. Her mandate includes championing more research and innovation to better understand the disease, supporting the implemen-

tation of 25 new memory clinics across Ontario (designed for early dementia detection and prevention), and working across levels of government and agencies to identify ways to expand supports to family caregivers. The politician watched her fatherin-law battle Alzheimer’s and calls it an “extremely painful and emotionally draining” experience. “It was very hard for our family to sit by and watch one of the smartest men that we knew slowly lose the ability to speak and express himself,” she said. An advisory board of more than 30 experts has been formed to bring together key stakeholders from Alzheimer societies, the Ontario Long Term Care Association, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health and community care access centres, among others.

dementia

David Harvey, chief of public policy and programs initiative for the Alzheimer Society of Ontario, is part of that board and said it is critical to have people at the table who are experiencing dementia first-hand. “Our focus has been developing a strategy that enables persons living with dementia to have a voice in articulating what their needs are and what the solutions might be moving forward,” he said. The Ontario Dementia Advisory Group (ODAG) consists of people living with dementia whose motto is “nothing about us without us.” They have been working with Naidoo-Harris on the Ontario strategy and will help government create policies and procedures through first-hand perspectives. ODAG member Bea Kraayenhof is a retired nurse who has been living with Alzheimer’s disease for 15 years. She said dementia should not be politicized and that Ontario needs to prepare for the “tsunami” by implementing a set of rules for long-term care homes and health-care agencies to follow. “The people in government now making the policies will be the ones living those policies,” she said. “If they’re lucky enough to live long, it’s probably going to happen to them.” An initial meeting was held in July to collect opinions and jumping off points on how to best go about building a person-centered model of care.

by 2020, more than A QUARTER OF A MILLION seniors in Ontario will be affected...

Families need more support to keep loved ones with dementia at home Beverly Verwey believes home is where the heart should stay. In 2007, she gave her mother, Betty, the option to move into a retirement home or to live with her in her Newmarket home. Betty chose the latter. Verwey watched her mother’s early signs of dementia progress to the point where Betty no longer recognized her daughter. Betty became blind and was later diagnosed with breast cancer. In 2012, Verwey retired early from her job with the Canadian Red Cross to stay home and take care of Betty. The local Community Care Access Centre (CCAC) provided 12 hours per week of personal support worker (PSW) help. She had a front row seat to gaps in the home care system, and noticed inconsistencies in PSWs’ implementation of her mother’s daily exercise routine, a critical component to her physical and mental health. “The family caregivers need some sort of

respite,” she said. “They have to trust that the support worker they’re leaving their loved one with is going to do the right thing.” She believes students in college PSW programs need more time in the classroom and doing clinical work. “The PSWs take a four-month course, then they have a short practical part where they work in a long-term care home,” she said. She said an occasional evaluation of PSWs’ skills, attitude and work ethic needs to be implemented. According to Verwey, an overhaul of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care is needed: “Funding, tools and resources from the government should be allocated to families who are keeping their family member at home.” Betty died in January 2014 at the age of 94. by LAURA DASILVA

NOTICE OF INTENT HUMBER RIVER BETWEEN 1025 SCARLETT ROAD AND CRUICKSHANK PARK EROSION CONTROL AND SLOPE STABILIZATION PROJECT CITY OF TORONTO Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) has commenced a study to address riverine and valley slope erosion behind 1025 Scarlett Road, opposite to Cruickshank Park, following the July 8, 2013 severe weather event. The study area includes the slope on the west side of the Humber River where ongoing erosion and slope instability have created a risk to existing infrastructure, including a playground behind a Toronto Community Housing residential complex at the top of the slope. This study will evaluate and identify the preferred solution to provide long-term protection for the residential property and surrounding structures at 1025 Scarlett Road. Remedial works may be implemented in phases, with major maintenance to replace the failed revetment at the toe of the slope during Phase 1, and upper slope stabilization works during Phase 2. This project is being planned in accordance with Conservation Ontario’s ‘Class Environmental Assessment for Remedial Flood and Erosion Control Projects’ (amended 2013), the approved process for this type of undertaking. The process includes public and stakeholder consultation, evaluation of alternatives, and identification of measures to mitigate any adverse impacts. If you have any additional inquiries or are interested in receiving further information related to this project, please contact the Project Coordinator by one of the methods below: Courtney Rennie Project Coordinator, Engineering Projects Toronto and Region Conservation Authority 1 Eastville Avenue, Toronto M1M 2N5 Phone: (416) 392-9690 Email: crennie@trca.on.ca TRCA intends to proceed with this project pending the receipt of all necessary funding and approvals.
