A grieving Etobicoke mom whose son and his girlfriend were killed in a tragic motorcycle crash last week says she is touched by the outpouring of love and support her family has been receiving from his friends. Mykel Henry-Wright, 24, and passenger Cassandra Tanovich, 22, died on Aug. 28 when their motorcycle collided with a car around 8:30 p.m. on Burnhamthorpe Road East, just west of Tomken Road in Mississauga.

The couple was out for a ride when the crashed occurred. A 77-year-old driver of the other vehicle suffered minor injuries. More than 500 mourners paid their respect to the “popular and well-liked” Henry-Wright at a memorial service last weekend at the Royal Canadian Legion Hall on Eighth Street. His friends have raised almost $6,000 to help his family with funeral expenses. Grief-stricken mom Cheryl Wright, who has three younger sons, said she is coping “from day-to-day” with the support >>>henry, page 17

Social workers set up shop to help released inmates
Ukrainian, Polish heritage celebrated in the west end
MP assures there will be no increase in crime TOM GODFREY etg@insidetoronto.com Social workers Ken Williams and Talena Jackson are gearing up for the opening of a new reintegration hub to help inmates being released from the Toronto South Detention Centre find treatment, jobs or shelter. The pair will be among the 15 to 20 counsellors on hand to assess the needs of up to 200 inmates weekly who are slated for release from the Horner Avenue prison starting next month. The social workers recently had their first look at what will be the Toronto South Reintegration Centre, at 215 Horner Ave., that will become a “one-stop-shop” for eight social agencies that work with men in need. The former factory, that was once operated by Plibrico Jointless Firebrick Ltd., sits across from the maximumsecurity provincial jail that will eventually house 1,650 inmates. Most are awaiting bail or other hearings. “There are no services here for the men being released,” said Jackson, a program manager of Margaret’s Housing and Community Support Services. “Many of them are not from the area and will be making their way back home.” The workers estimate about

one-third of the inmates being released have no money, job, close family members or homes to go to. “About half of our clients are from the downtown area,” Jackson said. “These people (inmates) will be lost out here since there are no support systems or shelters in the area.” She said most of the inmates being freed will soon require winter clothing. Thankfully, winter gear is among the many services provided by the John Howard Society of Toronto, that will have a base at the centre. Also setting up offices there are; LAMP Community Health Centre; FEAT for Children; African Canadian Legal Clinic; Cota Inspiring Change; Fresh Collective and Crime Prevention Association of
Toronto. Williams, an institutional support worker for the society, said staff will be notified by prison staff when inmates are being released. They’ll aim to be outside to meet them. “If we don’t get them, they will be gone and quite likely to reoffend and be back here again,” he warned. “We have to reach these men before they disappear.” Those being released are required to undergo an assessment to determine their needs and priorities. They are referred for ongoing support and can access medical or social services and shelter. “Many of the inmates have addiction or mental health challenges and there are no services here for them,” Williams explained. “Some
may end up wandering the area or sleeping in local parks.” Society executive director Greg Rogers said there is a lack of affordable housing in south Etobicoke “while mens’ shelters and addiction treatment centres are non-existent.” Rogers said those requiring treatment for mental health challenges will be taken downtown. MP Bernard Trottier said his office is following the issue and has been assured there will not be an increase of crime in the area since most of the inmates being released are not from Etobicoke and will be returning to their communities

et this be a municipal election campaign about ideas: not just the sharing of ideas but also how they can get implemented. Ideas on how our neighbourhoods can grow and evolve. Ideas on how our residents can become more engaged. Ideas on how our citizens can work together. By tomorrow afternoon, the final candidate list for Toronto’s mayor, councillors and school board trustees will be set. And we need to see what our candidates have to offer. But in addition to concrete proposals for their respective communities, candidates must offer how they intend to work with others – the citizens they’ll be representing as well their our view political colleagues. When it comes to representYour municipal ing constituents, it is possible earn respect – and ulticandidates must to mately build consensus – from earn their votes a wide range of viewpoints. That comes from being professional, from being diligent and by listening to all stakeholders. When it comes to working with political colleagues, Toronto council is made up of 45 elected representatives. The Toronto District School Board has 23. The Toronto Catholic District School Board has 13. An individual running for office is ultimately just one voice at the table. Even someone with the power and resources of the mayor’s office can have their vision sidelined – and we did witness that in this most recent term of council. Toronto has a lot of diverse (and sometimes competing) interests. Being able to connect with a diverse group of stakeholders on a myriad of issues – especially on those where a fundamental disagreement exists – is not an easy task, but it is a necessary one. To the candidates: Be prepared to offer your vision. Be prepared to back it up with facts and observations. But be prepared to explain a more challenging question: How would you work with your constituents and elected colleagues to push that vision forward? To Toronto’s voters: Inform yourselves on the issues that matter in your respective communities. Respect your vote – and make the candidates earn it.

Ford, Tory lacking in transit planning
I
never pegged Rob Ford and John Tory as the kind of kids who played a lot of Dungeons and Dragons in high school. Tory is bit old and suave to have gotten into the über-nerdy ‘80s role-playing game, and the only set of polyhedron dice kids like the Ford brothers would have had was the one they’d swiped from the cowering members of the Scarlett Heights D&D Club. Still, as a recovering Dungeons-and-Dragons über-nerd myself, I’ve got to say: both Ford and Tory would have made wicked Dungeon Masters. Armed with nothing but graph paper, some pencils and their unbridled imagination, both have come up with wonderful, fanciful maps that’ll keep parties of dungeon-crawlers busy for months – or, if they’re elected, years. Of the two transit dungeons, Ford’s is undeniably cooler. He’s drawn a veritable minotaur’s maze
david nickle the city of subway lines on his $9-billion plan to drive Torontonians underground: tunnels under Finch and Sheppard Avenues in Etobicoke and Scarborough, a dank catacomb for the Eglinton Crosstown light rail line in Scarborough, and a downtown relief passageway beneath Leslieville and Corktown. Although Ford hasn’t marked them on the map he sent out last week, one might expect a more than a few pit traps along that one. Tory’s plan is not technically a transit dungeon – Smart Track is all above ground – but the serpentine rail line wending through Scarborough, downtown Toronto and, if you listen to Olivia Chow, some living rooms in Etobicoke, is certainly sitting on a dragon’shorde of gold.
Tory would have been the kind of Dungeon Master that made it easy for his players, letting them wander from level to level picking off under-fed goblins and picking up chests-full of gold and magic swords and rings as they went – ultimately, becoming a very popular Dungeon Master indeed. It’s all great fun sitting around a table rolling dice, fighting through imaginary dungeons and counting up fanciful gold. The trouble is that both Tory and Ford’s transit plans are asking voters to roll dice on very real schemes; schemes that are going to cost real money and plough through real neighborhoods. The plans are probably a step up from the labyrinths that teenage gamers sketch out after they’ve done their homework, but they are nearly as tentative. This week, when Chow called Tory on the physical impossibility of laying track along the route he sketched
through Etobicoke, Tory admitted that yes, he would dig a tunnel for that portion of his surface subway after all. And neither he nor Ford have provided much comfort in their financing plans – both relying on the unproven tax increment financing model to pay the very significant cost of those projects, and Ford floating a further range of financing mechanisms that a team of experts spent considerable energy definitively refuting during the Sheppard subway debate this past term. Really, that shouldn’t surprise anyone. This kind of thing has always played much better over a long night in a suburban basement rec room than it does in the real world. Any übernerd could tell you that. David Nickle is The Guardian’s city hall reporter. His column appears Thursdays. Find him on Twitter: @ DavidNickle

the etobicoke guardian tackles a local issue
our exclusive look
Downton Abbey-themed fundraiser to support Dorothy Ley Hospice
The Singing Lady Consignment Emporium will donate 100 per cent of money raised to the local hospice
Ley, so that the volunteerbased community service organization can continue to offer compassionate care to people living with the challenges of life-limiting illness and loss. “All of us are excited and certainly it’s been a great way to engage our employees and volunteers to come out and have some Downton Abbeythemed fun,” she said. “It’s also very, very important to have community partners like The Singing Lady come on side with the Dorothy Ley Hospice. It helps us to offer more of our programs and services to more people and more individuals in the community, particularly the Etobicoke community.”
CYNTHIA REASON creason@insidetoronto.com Local Downton Abbey fans counting down the days until the January return of the Crawley clan and their colourful cast of servants need not look any further than Etobicoke for their mid-hiatus fix. The Singing Lady Consignment Emporium, located at 781 The Queensway, is set to host a Downton-themed fundraiser benefiting Dorothy Ley Hospice this weekend, with 100 per cent of the ticket sales plus the proceeds from a silent auction and raffle ticket sales being donated to the Etobicokebased hospice. “I wanted to give back s o m e h ow, s o I h a d t o figure out a way to do that,” Tammie Cancelli, owner of The Singing Lady – a consignment shop boasting an eclectic mix of antique furniture, fine china, tea sets, lamps, rugs, and jewelry, among many other treasures – said of the fundraiser, noting that the inspiration for the theme of the event sprung from the store itself. “ We h a v e t h e p e r fect ambiance here for a Downton theme – it’s the right venue for this type of event. People can wander and mingle, and there’s lots to talk about and there’s lots to see here.” During the event, which takes place on Saturday, Sept. 13 from 8 to 10:30

One of Dorothy Ley’s “big pushes” this year, Addis added, is to enhance its community outreach program – an initiative for which fundraising is imperative. “We now have 10 palliative physicians that are working directly out of the Dorothy Ley Hospice as part of our community outreach program, so a lot of the funding from these types of events will go to enhance and align that community outreach program...Our hope is that we can offer 24/7 access to more people in need of hospice palliative care services.” Both Cancelli and Singing Lady manager Carol-Anne Powell credited longtime Dorothy Ley supporter – and recently retired, former Etobicoke Centre MPP – Donna Cansfield for playing a “huge role” in the fruition of the Downtonthemed fundraiser. “Donna’s been a huge inspiration for this, and she’s really done a lot to push it along,” Cancelli said, noting that it was Cansfield who inspired her to name Dorothy Ley Hospice the beneficiary of the fundraiser,
“
... a lot of the funding from these types of events will go to enhance and align that community outreach program... Our hope is that we can offer 24/7 access to more people in need of hospice palliative care services.. – Renae Addis, Dorothy Ley Hospice
which she now hopes will become an annual event. “I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her.” Added Powell: “We had been talking about trying to find ways to do things within the community for a long time, and (Dorothy Ley Hospice) is such a necessary, community-based organization. It’s a good thing to support,” she said. “Our goal is to make people aware of the hospice and all the good work they do, as well as raising funds for them.” For Powell, the fundraiser also brings full circle what she believes is Cancelli’s “ultimate small business story” with The Singing Lady. “It’s the story of a local couple who started a little store, and as that store got bigger, it expanded to another store that now employs 12-15 people,” she said. “It’s the ultimate small business story where they’re working hard to make it work – and now finding great ways to give back to the community.” For more information about The Singing Lady’s Downton Abbey-themed Cocktail Evening and Silent Auction and to buy tickets, go to www.thesinginglady. com or www.dlhospice.org

Leon stands by promise not to run in Ward 3 in October >>>from page 1 Ho l y d a y w a s v a c a t ing his seat to run for the Conservatives in the August 2013 Etobicoke-Lakeshore byelection. Holday won the byelection, then lost his MPP seat to Liberal veteran councillor Peter Milczyn in a rematch in June’s Ontario election. “I nearly fell on the floor,” Leon said of the call from his decades-long Toronto Hydro board colleague and friend. Leon, 72, clearly loves the role. He becomes animated,
passionate when talking about initiatives he has undertaken, constituents’ concerns he has attempted to resolve while in office. He returns again and again in conversation to “customer service” as a councillor’s duty – “If you don’t work with the people, you don’t deserve the job.” Leon acknowledged he regrets his pledge not to run for re-election. But he confirmed he remains strongly committed to stand by his word. “I have to keep my word.
My word is my bond,” Leon said Tuesday in a broad ranging interview in his Etobicoke Civic Centre councillor’s office. “Standards of trust, integrity and honesty is what those 45 councillors expect from you.” Leon’s decision stands in the face of a flood of support, more than 100 calls, he reported, from Toronto councillors and city staff encouraging him to run for reelection. “I’m sad because I’m not going to be doing it because I’m living my dream every
day,” he said. “But I’m happy for what I have done. I do feel I have made a difference. I do feel I’ve been able to be effective. And I do feel thanks to everybody’s help, including my dear wife’s, I’ve been able to do a good job. You can’t ask any more than that.” Leon cites two issues that presented the greatest challenge in his councillor post in the past 11 months. The first, Toronto council’s vote to strip Mayor Rob Ford of his powers in the face of allegations – repeatedly denied, then acknowledged by Ford – that
he had smoked crack cocaine while in office. The second, residents broadsided in April to learn a developer’s proposal to build two, 24-storey apartment buildings and an 11-storey residential and commercial building on the northwest corner of The East Mall and Rathburn Road was still alive. Leon held an information meeting for residents to discuss the city and OMB processes. Later, Leon’s staff assisted nine residents granted party status at the OMB hearing to craft their

UP Express: Airport workers want meeting over fares Workers are asking for an immediate consultation with their entire membership RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com Airport workers are demanding a face-to-face meeting with Metrolinx officials to discuss their concerns over the affordability of the Union Pearson (UP) Express air rail link. Around 10 members of a loose coalition of flight attendants, customer service representatives and baggage handlers working out of Pearson International Airport turned up last Friday at Metrolinx’s head offices inside Union Station, thinking they would get to voice their concerns directly to the provincial transit’s agency’s board of directors on charging a premium fare for UP, which opens next spring. But the public portion of
Metrolinx board meetings don’t allow for deputations. Chair Rob Prichard suggested any concerns on UP’s future affordability could be emailed to him directly. That’s just not good enough, said the workers who want an immediate public consultation with the entire membership. “Twenty-thousand workers and there hasn’t been one discussion with any of us,” said Sean Smith, a union organizer with Unifor local 2002, which represents Pearson airport employees as well as flight personnel working for airlines like Air Transat and Air Canada. “We’ve just heard the train is not for you, well it’s our tax dollars they used to put it there.” Several workers, who

made their comments within earshot of senior Metrolinx executives, said there is general support for UP among the airport workforce, even though the service is expected to operate as a premium
express rail service, making just two stops at Weston and Bloor GO stations, between Terminal One of Pearson and Union Station. Riding the length of the four-stop service which trav-
els from Pearson via a new rail track linking up with the existing Georgetown South tracks will take only 25 minutes, promises Metrolinx, making it ideal for business-class commuters looking to travel in speed as well as luxury. For Ole Harder getting to the airport in under 30 minutes would be a dream. The Air Canada flight attendant said he spends at least 90 minutes getting from Richmond and Sherbourne streets to the airport, a journey which requires streetcar, subway and bus trips. Harder, who said he would happily take the service regularly if the fares were reasonable, was frustrated by what he sees as a lack of public dialogue on the matter. “There’s no public consultation, and we’re being told it’s a boutique service for businessmen, which was never intended for us,” said Harder. “They’re making back-and-forth impossible and excluding the public from participation.”
In a statement, Metrolinx spokesperson Malon Edwards said there’s a willingness on the part of the provincial transit planning agency to discuss the matter with the airport workers – if an official meeting request is made. “We’re committed to meeting with the Pearson Airport workers who attended last week’s board meeting, and we look forward to their formal request,” said Edwards. alternative pricing Edwards also said alternative pricing for UP fares was under discussion, including having “variable price points” for families and frequent riders. Also under consideration was charging riders who board from either Weston or Bloor a distance-based fare as is used by GO Transit. “We are working hard to ensure we develop a sustainable business plan that meets the needs of as many people as possible,” he said.

LRT tunnel dig nears Dufferin Tunnel borer machines (TBMs) excavating the west underground portion of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT have nearly reached Dufferin Street. About 2.5 kilometres of tunnelling is complete since last spring, with both “Dennis” and “Lea” digging underneath Eglinton Avenue West. They are expected to reach Allen Road by December, according to Metrolinx. The two massive drilling machines have continued to carve out the Crosstown’s underground route, departing from Black Creek Drive last spring. Once the machines reach the Allen, they will be extracted and redeployed east to Yonge Street. All tunnelling is expected to be done by late 2016 after which station construction can begin.

obituary
Philanthropist Harold Shipp dies at 88 after short illness Builder donated millions to Trillium Health Partners’ hospitals in Etobicoke, Mississauga TAMARA SHEPHARD tshephard@insidetoronto.com Mississauga and Etobicoke builder, community leader and philanthropist Harold Shipp has died. He was 88. Shipp died Sunday night at Mississauga Trillium Hospital after a short illness. Shipp Corporation Ltd., Shipp’s family building business, is best known in Etobicoke for constructing the former Shipp Centre – tall glass office towers looming over the Islington subway station at Islington Avenue and Bloor Street West. Shipp got his start in 1950, when he bought land south of the QEW and built 2,000 homes in a former apple orchard that became the Mississauga neighbourhood of Applewood Acres. It was Shipp’s business success and leadership that financially fueled his greatest public legacy – a four-decade, steadfast commitment to fundraising and unprecedented donations in the millions of dollars to Trillium Health Partners’
West Toronto (Etobicoke) and Mississauga hospitals. Shipp’s late wife, June, first volunteered in Mississauga Hospital’s emergency room in 1967, later in its fracture clinic, a commitment that spanned 34 years until her death in 2001. Since 1971, Shipp was a longtime member of the board of directors of the former Queensway General Hospital, now Trillium Health Centre’s West Toronto ambulatory care (day) hospital. He participated in the ground breakings of both the Queensway and Mississauga hospitals. In 2005, Shipp donated a $6 million matching grant to Trillium for its then-largest-ever $150 million capital expansion and redevelopment of Trillium’s West Toronto ambulatory care hospital in Etobicoke. Shipp’s gift remains unsurpassed at Trillium Health Partners, hospital officials confirmed. In 2011, Trillium named its newly created regional stroke centre the Harold G. Shipp and June C. Shipp Stroke Centre at its Mississauga

hospital. Shipp had contributed $6 million to the centre. Shipp remains the honorary chair of Trillium Health Partners Foundation. This year, Shipp was named to Trillium foundation’s Chairman’s Circle, its highest honour.
– Steve Hoscheit, Trillium Health Partners Foundation president
Steve Hoscheit, Trillium Health Partners Foundation president and CEO, called Shipp “a remarkable man.” “His life’s dedication to service beyond the self was incredibly inspiring,” Hoscheit said in a statement. “Over the past 40 years, he has displayed dedicated volunteer leadership, a passion for community building and an abiding commitment to service in generations of his family, including his children, who have served similarly with our hospital.” Hoscheit confirmed Shipp contributed more than $6 million to help fund “critical life-saving health care priorities” at Trillium Health Partners — “a true testament to
his passion for philanthropy and dedication to our community. “Mr. Shipp’s passionate commitment to this hospital was keenly evident and deeply appreciated. It was a privilege to have known him, to learn from him and to call him my friend.” Shipp’s numerous awards and recognition include the Queen’s Silver Jubilee Medal, the Rotary Club’s Paul Harris Award for Community Service and City of Etobicoke Personal and Corporate Service Award. In 1992, he was appointed a Knight of Grace in the Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem. In 2012, he was named the first recipient of the Civic Award of Philanthropy in Mississauga. He held a Lifetime Business Achievement Award from the Mississauga Board of Trade and from the National Association of Industrial and Office Parks. Shipp is also in the Canadian Home Builders Hall of Fame. Funeral arrangements were not known at Guardian press time.

The Martin Grove RoadEglinton Avenue West Run began 33 years ago, one of the
original runs in Canada. To d a y, t h e a u t u m n Canadian tradition involves global participants and has raised more than $650 million for cancer research since Terry Fox ran his 143-day Marathon of Hope in 1980. Cancer research The Terry Fox Foundation is a leading national investor in cancer research. In 2013-14, the foundation will invest an estimated $23.5 million in three key areas of cancer research: • discovery research ($14.2 million); • research that moves lab discoveries more quickly to impact patients ($8.2 million); • and training future leaders in cancer research ($1.1 million). The foundation reported 84 cents of every dollar raised
goes to cancer research. Fox dipped his artificial leg in the water in St. John’s Newfoundland on April 12, 1980 then ran through the Atlantic Provinces, Quebec and Ontario averaging an incredible 42 kilometres, nearly a marathon a day. Canadians watched in awe roadside and on television news broadcasts. Thunder Bay Then on Sept. 1, 1980 just outside Thunder Bay, Fox was felled with excruciating chest pains. Doctors confirmed the cancer had spread to his lungs. Fox’s Marathon of Hope was over. Fox lost his battle with cancer on June 28, 1981. He was 22.

Henry-Wright ‘always had a big twinkle in his eyes’ says friend >>>from page 1 of a close family. “I am supposed to be planning a wedding for my son, not a funeral,” Wright said. “No mother wants to have their child die before them.” Wright, 42, a single mom, said she works at two jobs to support her family. Henry-Wright’s dad, who is from Jamaica, was not there to help raise him, she said. She is proud of being a fourthgeneration Etobicoke resident, whose family lived in the same home for more than 60 years. “My son loved people and he lived life to the fullest,” Wright said. “He was a great kid who always had a contagious smile on his face.” Henry-Wright was working as a carpenter on the expansion of the Sherway Gardens Mall and planned to return to school to
study architecture. “He wanted to learn to read drafts and plans for building houses,” his mom recalled. “He wanted to build homes for people.” She said her son had been caring for his elderly grandmother, who will be greatly affected by his death. “He was a great guy and we love him so much,” Wright mourned. “He impacted the lives of everyone who knew him.” Friend Richard Gillingham said his buddy loved life, the outdoors and helping others. “He was one of the most honest person you can ever meet,” Gillingham said. “He was into sports and loved playing hockey, basketball and especially fishing.” He said his former Silverthorn

attended a fundraiser last weekend at NTB Lounge, on Lake Shore Boulevard West that generated more than $2,500 for the family. “He was a great kid who always stayed out of trouble,” said NTB owner Romaine Andronyk. “He was an honest guy who always had a big twinkle in his eyes.” A campaign has also been launched online on Go Get Funding that has raised more than $3,200. Friends are hoping to raise $20,000. Peel Regional Police said charges have not been laid and their investigation is continuing. Police said there have been 28 motorcycle fatalities so far this year in Ontario.

RAMPING UP: Work crews are busy constructing part of the Pan Am BMX course at Centennial Park in Etobicoke. The 3.2-hectare course will feature an eightmetre launch ramp at the start, a closed looped consisting of four straightaways, three banked turns and challenging jumps. The Games hit Toronto July 10 to 26, 2015. Staff photos/IAN KELSO
BMX biker charged in assault on security guard An 18-year-old BMX biker from Etobicoke is one of two men charged with assault following an altercation with security guards at Hamilton’s Jackson Square Mall on Sept. 1 – an encounter that was caught on video and has since gone viral on YouTube. According to Hamilton police, the unnamed accused from Etobicoke and a 24-yearold man from Huntsville were part of a group of “several males” asked to leave the premises of the mall at 2 King St. W., after engaging in “prohibited activities.” After refusing to leave, the two males allegedly engaged in a fight with the mall’s Intelligarde Security guards, while one of their companions captured the encounter on video – footage from which was later uploaded to YouTube and other social media sites. As of Tuesday, that YouTube
video had more than 387,645 views. Chris Botting, chief operating officer for Intelligarde Security, told Metroland Media the confrontation began when a merchant complained three teens – then thought to be between the ages of 15 and 19 years old – were riding their bikes in the food court. According to a police statement, the teens were “belligerent” and became “verbally aggressive” as they were escorted out of the mall. The video begins once they get outside. Police said from there, the teens still refused to leave the property and so the guards – “left with no other option,” according to a police news release – attempted to arrest them under the Trespass to Property Act and to hold them until police arrived.
A struggle ensued and, as seen in the video, one officer is punched in the face and the other is hit in the face with a shoe, drawing blood. Both guards were taken to hospital, treated and released. By the time police arrived on the scene, the BMX bikers had fled. On Monday, however, Hamilton police announced the arrest of the 18-year-old Etobicoke man and 24-yearold man from Huntsville in connection with the case. The Etobicoke man is facing a charge of assault Level 2, while the accused from Huntsville is charged with assault. Hamilton police said the security guards are not facing charges. - Torstar News Service

Soknacki bows out of race DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com David Soknacki has left the mayoral race. The former Scarborough councillor and budget chief made the announcement in the evening of Tuesday, Sept. 9 after speaking with supporters. Consistently polling in the single digits, Soknacki said in his statement that he simply hadn’t the support or momentum to continue. “Ours has been one of the most positive, the most ideadriven and the most idealistic Toronto mayoral campaigns in recent memory,” Soknacki wrote. “However, today, I received
confirmation of what I suspected for days: while my support is growing, it simply is not growing quickly enough to make any positive difference to the outcome on Election Day, especially given the challenges I’ve faced as a candidate.” Soknacki made the announcement hours after the release of his full campaign platform – a release that was eclipsed by a visit by boxer Mike Tyson to Mayor Rob Ford. Soknacki campaigned in opposition to Ford’s policies, deliberately shying away from his substance abuse and other personal matters. Among other things, Soknacki supported scrap-
ping the Scarborough subway in favour of light rail, digging deep into the police budget and offering free TTC rides for early-bird commuters to help ease congestion. “While we fought this as a campaign of ideas, we’ve also heard from voters who’ve told us that removing Mayor Ford is their top priority,” said Soknacki in his statement. Soknacki’s departure came the same day mayoral candidate Sarah Thompson dropped out. Now, the three significant mayoral candidates in the election Oct. 27 are John Tory, Olivia Chow and Ford.

wellness Your feet may be the cause of your back pain Our feet take a lot of pounding no matter whether we stand all day at work, enjoy a daily run, spend hours volunteering, or care for small children. And even though feet can withstand a lot of demands, experts say we shouldn’t take them for granted. Our feet are composed of dozens of delicate bones and joints that can easily be injured by wearing ill-fitting shoes or because of the way we naturally walk. People often don’t realize there is something wrong with their feet because their feet don’t hurt. Instead, they may complain about an aching lower back or sore knees. Many of my patients have
been surprised to learn the pain in their back, hips or knees actually stems from their feet. Many foot injuries are actually caused by footwear. As feet provide our base of support and take hours of pounding every day, you should always wear supportive shoes that fit snuggly. Narrow, fashionable heels may look great, but they often pinch and cause you to unnaturally shift your weight forward. Loose, unsupportive, footwear can be equally damaging as it rubs and doesn’t provide the support your feet need. Depending on your foot type, you may
also require a foot orthotic. Foot orthotics, are simple devices that slip inside your everyday shoes, to prevent your feet from rolling inwards or outwards when you walk. Individuals whose feet naturally roll may experience pain in their feet, ankles, legs, knees, hips or back as a result of their improper mechanics. If you have persistent unexplained pain in your hip, back, knees or feet speak to your doctor about a referral to a certified pedorthist. Your pedorthist will conduct a full assessment of your feet and lower limbs and carefully examine how you walk. They will also look closely at

Secrets revealed to help you…
hankfully, new natural treatment methods help many find the relief they had been searching for. Sciatica is a painful condition that affects the sciatic nerve. The pain usually radiates into one or both buttocks, descends the back of the leg and can sometime be felt in the foot. It is often a severe, knife-like pain, but can also be noticed as numbness or tingling in the leg and foot. It is unpredictable and does not go away even when you change positions or lay down. Sciatica can result from years of poor posture, muscle strain, pregnancy, excess weight, wearing high heels, or sleeping on a very soft mattress. Sciatica is often a symptom of a slipped disc, pinched nerve or arthritis. Although pain pills may temporarily cover up the symptoms, our holistic approach can provide a more effective, long term relief. “Our team members apply their individual skills and knowledge to make an accurate diagnosis and administer the right treatment that will get the best result for each patient.”

Tips on keeping an autumn cold at bay The end of summer is on the horizon and with the chillier weather around the corner, more Canadians will find themselves spending more time indoors. But being indoors also means you are in closer quarters with more people and you may soon find yourself with sniffles, congestion and a nasty cough. Though a cold is an inconvenience for most, it can be very serious for the more than 770,000 Canadians who have been diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis and causes symptoms like shortness of breath, wheezing and coughing up phlegm. Getting a cold makes it even harder for people with COPD to breathe and be active. Not only that, but it also increases the chances of getting a more serious respiratory tract infection.
Simple steps can help you prevent colds or flu, or lessen the severity if they do come about, including: Wash up: Since germs are commonly spread through handshakes, wash your hands regularly with soap and water, or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer if necessary. Boost your immune system: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle by eating well and getting plenty of sleep can also help combat the cold and flu bug. Watch for signs of breathlessness: If you are suffering from symptoms like shortness of breath or wheezing, speak to your physician about a COPD assessment and finding the right treatment options for you.

Toronto Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG) started a poster campaign in fall 2012, which has gone viral with requests for the poster coming from around the world.
Toronto PFLAG’s inclusive poster campaign goes viral JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com What began as a campaign designed to open the minds of Toronto students to their LGBTQ peers has made waves all over the world. Toronto Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG) started a poster campaign in the fall of 2012, with local middle schools and high schools receiving copies of the posters. The campaign features two posters, one with a group of teen boys with the caption “He’s gay and we’re cool with that” and another with a group of teen girls reading “She’s gay and we’re cool with that.” The posters were aimed to stop students from using violence, slurs or other forms of bullying to marginalize their LGBTQ peers. ‘A lot of calls’ “We sent the posters out through the TDSB (Toronto District School Board) and said ‘if you want additional posters or you want us to come and speak at your school, give us a call,’” said Toronto PFLAG president Anne Creighton. “We started getting a lot of calls and the campaign was so successful, we decided to run the program the following year.”
“
... it started when we got requests from a school in Maryland and spread from there. – Anne Creighton
While it was no surprise the posters caught on in the Toronto area, Toronto PFLAG was pleasantly surprised when they began getting requests for the posters from further and further away. “I don’t know what happened, but it started when we got requests from a school in Maryland and spread from there,” Creighton said. “We got requests from Germany after an exchange student saw the posters in the U.S.” Larger orders have come in from Vancouver, Washington, D.C. and other locales. The original plan was to print 1,000 of the posters, but Toronto PFLAG is currently having more printed, bringing the total number of posters distributed to 7,000. While the posters were originally targeted at middle school and high school students, Creighton noted requests have come in for younger students, as well, with some elementary schools requesting the materials. Naturally, Toronto PFLAG was happy to help spread the message of inclusiveness to younger kids.
One message that hits home for younger students in particular is that LGBTQ students are just like any other. “Some younger kids look at the posters and try to (determine which of the students in the poster is gay),” Creighton said. “Older students will tell them ‘that’s the point – you can’t tell.’” Toronto PFLAG’s poster campaign was inspired by a similar campaign run out of a private school in Ireland. It has become so popular, Creighton said, that one Toronto PFLAG parent has become what the organization calls its “postmistress.”

Olivia Chow questions John Tory’s SmartTrack policy MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com Olivia Chow has questioned the surface-rail centerpiece of John Tor y’s mayoral campaign, SmartTrack, by pointing out it faces physical obstacles in Toronto’s west end. On Tuesday morning, Chow stood on Eglinton Avenue West and recalled Tory, speaking at two recent debates, said he won’t have to buy land, dig tunnels or build on roads to create his 53-kilometere, 22-stop electrified commuter lines. “You see behind me there are homes already being built,” Chow said at the corner of Widdicombe Hill Boulevard, where she said part of the possible right of way for Tory’s project has been sold.
More townhouses will be built in SmartTrack’s path along Eglinton West, she added, asking how Tory can build 12 kilometres of “heavy rail” from Mount Dennis to Mississauga without expensive land expropriations or tunneling. If Tory can’t answer, “he hasn’t done his homework,” said Chow. SmartTrack will mostly run in the province’s GO rail corridors, but this will not be possible around where Chow was standing. At city hall, Mayor Rob Ford said people in Etobicoke do not want Eglinton to be “ripped up from Mount Dennis to Martin Grove” for SmartTrack, and accused Tory of planning just that. Tory said there may have to be some tunneling for SmartTrack “if and when
and where necessary,” but it will not tear up lanes on Eglinton. Most of it can be done on the right of way, he added, but “there are some areas around Eglinton where you might have to tunnel a bit. It will be done.” Tory added he never said there would be no tunneling, adding his plan was being attacked by opponents who don’t want to talk about details of their own transit plans. Chow questioned the speed in which SmartTrack could be completed. Tory said it could be done in seven years, saying he would push the province to have the two GO lines his project needs electrified “well within 10 years.”

Rob Ford takes to near-empty subway to talk transit MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com Kamani Kypolite said it wasn’t the weirdest subway ride he has taken. Still, it was a far from normal commute for the York University student, who was watched and photographed by reporters between Sheppard-Yonge and Don Mills stations Monday while Mayor Rob Ford tried convincing Kypolite his subway plan has merit. “It would take years to do it, but I’ve got the planning going and stuff like that,” Ford said, pointing to a chart on his clipboard, while fellow student Taurean Clarke stood nearby. The mayor had no other voters to solicit while on the Sheppard subway, where low ridership has been a chronic problem for the TTC. The only other passenger in the car, a woman who didn’t give her name but said extending the Sheppard line “would be nice,” got off at Bayview station. Ford reached the terminus at Don Mills Road, sprinted up stairs to the street and tried to convince

York University student Kamani Hypolite, left, talks with Mayor Rob Ford aboard a Sheppard subway train on Monday.
other commuters the Sheppard East light-rail line – which he killed upon taking office in 2010, though it was later revived – should die again, replaced by a Sheppard subway extension to McCowan Road, where it would meet a proposed BloorDanforth line extension. “It only makes sense, and it only makes sense to 90 per cent of the people I talk to,” said Ford, who implied one of those people was
Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Harper’s Conservative party “campaigned on subways” before its last majority win and will support subways again next year, said the mayor, who didn’t spell out what this might mean in his plans for Sheppard Avenue. Ford unveiled a $9-billion schedule for new subways across Toronto last Friday which, among other things, includes the first stage of
a downtown relief line and putting the Eglinton Crosstown LRT underground in Scarborough. The mayor’s opponents said he underestimated the cost of the projects and didn’t say how the city could pay for them. His remarks Monday added nothing to the debate, except Ford’s promise he will travel to each section of his future transit map for different media events, “so people can understand clearly what I’m saying.” His message to voters Monday was the same as in 2010, when Ford picked up votes in Scarborough by pledging to stop the LRT line, which was scheduled to be opened by now, and to replace it with a subway to Scarborough Town Centre: light-rail cars will take up road lanes and force people to switch transit modes or stand outside in winter. Opposition to the Sheppard East LRT, for which construction was put off until 2017, has continued in the Agincourt area, where lawn signs in the provincial campaign called for a subway instead. Certain candidates for councillor say a Sheppard subway extension is a local campaign issue this year. Asked how he could justify
extending the money-losing subway line, the mayor suggested it often is far busier than it was when he rode to Don Mills to make his remarks. “People are working, students are in school. You’re not going to get a huge crowd.” A Sheppard subway will spur development that will help pay for its construction by selling air rights above stations or borrowing against future assessment growth, Ford said. “As we build subways, density will come,” he said, arguing it certainly has around Sheppard and Yonge Street in North York. “Look at it now.
