Pastor Delroy Williams of the Open Door Healing Centre says a prayer during a vigil on Neptune Drive Saturday morning to remember Elijah marsh. The toddler died Thursday after wandering out into the cold.

Elijah’s funeral set for Saturday The funeral for a young boy who died after wandering out of a Neptune Drive apartment building last week will be held Saturday. The service for Elijah Lloyd Anthony Marsh, 3, will be held at St. Matthew’s United Church, 729 St. Clair Ave. W. at Rushton Road, at 11 a.m. Visitation will be held Thursday, Feb. 26 at Vescio Funeral Home - Toronto Chapel, 2080 Dufferin St., north of Rogers Road, from 2 to 9 p.m. Elijah will be laid to rest following the funeral service at Prospect Cemetery, 1450 St. Clair Ave. W., east of Caledonia Road. Elijah was found last Thursday morning about 300 metres from his grandmother’s building after wandering away during the night wearing only a T-shirt, pull-up diaper and boots in freezing temperatures. The little boy later died in hospital. An online fundraising campaign

has raised more than $173,000 to cover Elijah’s funeral costs. A trust account has been set up by the family and donations can be made to Scotiabank, Institution 002, Transit number 01602, account number 01602 02853 23.

More than 500 students and educators celebrated the spirit of the Toronto 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games yesterday with sports activities, cultural dances and motivational speakers. Hosted by the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB), the Pan Am Celebration Day also welcomed students from the Halton and Dufferin-Peel school boards to The Hangar at Downsview Park. “ We w a n t e d the communitybuilding aspect of the Games,” said Greg Rogers, TCDSB co-ordinator of student leadership programs, who also sits on the Pan Am Games community outreach committee. “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.” While the goal of the committee is to bring people to the Games, Rogers said it’s also to bring the Games to the people. “That’s the purpose of today,” he noted, adding it’s about celebrating both sports and multiculturalism. “And we wanted to make this day experiential.” The student leaders and educators participated in activities throughout the day using resources

from the Pan Am/Parapan Am kids program, which included Fast Break Lacrosse to introduce lacrosse skills and Sitting Volleyball to give students the challenge of the parasport. Kathleen Daniel, the TCDSB Pan Am Games representative and Grade 11 student from Notre Dame High School, said she hoped student leaders at the celebration day bring back what they learned to their respective schools. “This is a way to get them more involved,” added Hannah McGroarty, one of the two TCDSB student trustees who attended and emceed the event, along with f e l l ow G ra d e 12 student Christopher MacDonald. “And it’s getting them to be inspired,” MacDonald said. For inspiration, keynote speakers who were invited to address the students included 2012 Canadian Olympian boxer and Pan Am Games gold medallist Mary Spencer, Canadian paralympian swimmer Chelsey Gotell, who’s won 12 Paralympic medals, and 2008 Canadian Olympian rhythmic gymnast Alexandra Orlando, who’s also won three Pan Am Games gold medals.

Still progress to be made on gender equity W

ith International Women’s Day on March 8, we’re looking at what it means to be female, the relationships between men and women in the workplace and Canadian society and some of the challenges women are facing and how they differ from a century ago. The history of International Women’s Day goes back to New York City in 1908 when women marched for shorter working hours, better pay and the right to vote. While it may seem hard to believe today, there was a time in both the United States and Canada when the right to vote did not extend to women. It wasn’t until 1919 in Canada that women were given that right. In the United States it was 1920, though some states had allowed women to vote going as far back as the late 1800s. All of which should remind our view us that the issue of women’s rights is still a part of recent Despite gains, history and ongoing news. Locally, in today’s papers women’s rights we talk with Toronto District remain an issue School Board student equity advisor and body image consultant Jill Andrew on the issues women and girls face when it comes to self-esteem and equity. Andrews said an event such as International Women’s Day is a good time to remember that women need to not simply be satisfied that they are at the table when it comes to making decisions in politics, business and their personal lives. “We need to be the people forming the table and finding people to push our ideas forward.” Lorna Marsden, a former president and vice-chancellor of York University, agrees there is still work to be done even in a society that appears equitable and tolerant such as ours. “We have made tremendous gains, but we don’t have equal pay, we are still lacking in representation of women in decision-making positions such as business and cultural,” she pointed out. We hope the stories in today’s paper of local, inspiring women serve to get both women and men thinking more about the issue of gender equality and what needs to be done next. Those looking for more information on International Women’s Day events in Toronto, wishing to see our stories with local women of influence, or to add to the conversation with their comments, are invited to visit us online at www.insidetoronto.com

The secret to rolling up the rim success I dropped into my neighbourhood Tim Hortons Sunday morning and ran into my buddy Mike, who is usually all smiles. He was slumped in his chair, shaking his head. “I never win,” he sighed as he showed me the PLEASE PLAY AGAIN written on the inside of his rim. “Forget about a car, I can’t even win half a Timbit.” “Chin up, lad. If it’s any consolation, I haven’t won half a Timbit either.” “Jamie, you know there’s no such prize. Can’t you be serious for even one second in your life?” “Beats me. Why don’t I buy you another cup of coffee. If you win a stopwatch you can time me and you’ll know once and for all. How’s that sound?” “You know they don’t give away stopwatches in the contest, either. But I’ll take you up on your offer because I’m itching to take another shot at the rim.” “Coming right up and to show you what kind of guy

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY I am, while you try again I’ll watch and then give you some tips on how to improve on your rim game plan.” I could see in his eyes he wanted to ask me if he could just get the java without having to be subjected to my tips. But he knew better. Anyhow, we talked over our coffees, intermittently our coffees talked over us and then it was time to get down to business. Mike did his thing, but it ended up in the same old same old PLEASE PLAY AGAIN. He showed it to me and whined, “See?” “What do you expect, man? You didn’t do it right,” I replied. “What do you mean I didn’t do it right? I rolled it up. Just like I always do.” “Precisely, my point. That’s why you never win.

You’re not following the exact instructions. They clearly state you have to RRROLL it up. Not roll. RRROLL.” I got him another, but alas, it was deja vu all over (PLEASE PLAY) again. “How do you explain why I lost this time, Mr. Know-It-All?” “That wasn’t a RRROLL, either. You PPPOPPED it up. Come on man, you’re not concentrating. I’ll go get you one more. But please, focus this time.” He tried once more, but the outcome was still nada. “So?” “Admittedly a slight improvement, but you merely UUUNCURLED that rim.” ...Later that afternoon. “Come on Mike, even a child of four knows that was a textbook LLLIFT up.” ...Later that evening. “Also not a RRROLL, I’m afraid. That was a TTTWIST and SSSHOUT. For what it’s worth, Twitter didn’t care for the TTTWIST at all,

but went bonkers over your embarrassing SSSHOUT.” That was the last straw. Mike officially threw in the towel. “OK, hotshot, since you’re such an expert, I’ll buy you a cup and you can show me how it’s done.” “Be glad to. I thought you’d never ask.” I gulped the coffee down, rubbed my hands together a few times, wiggled my magic fingers and then made my move, after which I broke into a huge grin. “Read and it weep, pal. I just won half a...” An astonished Mike interrupted. “Timbit? You just won half a Timbit?” “Better. Half a stopwatch. So even though you won’t get the answer to your original question, at least you’ll be able to find out if I can be serious for half a second.” Jamie Wayne is a lifelong columnist, who takes writing very seriously.

Cuts create a nasty little mess The budget committee had been doing so well under the circumstances. Its new chair Gary Crawford had run pleasant and accommodating meetings, absent any of the chiding nastiness and bladder-challenging standoffs with deputations. There had been some trouble, but overall it had been going so well, until the very last moments of its deliberations last week. That was when budget committee member Michelle Berardinetti brought up some last-minute, and on the face of it perplexing amendments. Berardinetti moved to cut some planned staffing enhancements – from two of the city’s accountability offices, the ombudsman and the integrity commissioner, and also from the complement of planning staff whose duties included helping the city deal with its backlog of heritage conservation districts. The motions were a surprise to everyone watching and at least one of the committee members – Shelley Carroll.

david nickle the city She called the planning cuts in particular “a disaster.” The eight additional planners that are no longer in the budget would have let the city work on a more aggressive schedule of assessing and establishing heritage conservation districts. Maybe that didn’t seem like such a disaster on Friday when the motion passed. But on Tuesday, heritage advocates begged to differ. Currently the city has a backlog of 16 neighbourhoods that are candidates for preservation of their heritage elements, and there are likely more that haven’t been flagged. If the city doesn’t get going on that, then buildings and elements that reflect Toronto’s history will continue to erode — and eventually, vanish. A s R i c h a rd L o n g l e y, president of Architectural Conservancy Ontario, told the

planning and growth management committee: “I see that proposal at budget committee as a kind of suicide note.” As for the ombudsman and integrity commissioner, both of those offices represent crucially important checks against incompetence and malfeasance. They were established in legislation in response to political and administrative corruption unearthed in the Bellamy inquiry. Both offices investigated and shed light on improprieties at the last council and at a staff level that offered real consequences and remedies. Some of those investigations had serious consequences indeed. Though those cuts were in the interest of “fiscal responsibility,” the method of their delivery indicates something not quite so pure. It is indeed a nasty little mess, that the city’s executive committee and council will either have to wear, or clean up.

Bunker found near Rexall Centre >>>from page 1 to the bunker, which measured 6-feet 4-inches high, two-feet 10-inches wide, and 33.3-feet long, Saunders said. A ladder led down into the bunker, and once inside officers discovered a number of items, including moistureresistant light bulbs, a gas can, wheelbarrow, food and beverage containers, and a rosary with a Remembrance Day poppy attached to it, hanging from a nail in the wall. A smaller, concealed hole was located nearby, which housed a gas generator. “It was well off the beaten path,” Saunders said. The deputy chief defended the decision to fill in the site, noting media was aware of the discovery and he wanted to “get in front of it.” Though police don’t know how long the bunker was there, Saunders said it appears a sump pump was used sometime this winter, adding he believes more than one person had a hand in building the bunker. The bunker’s structural integrity was quite sound, he said, adding it was warm

inside when officers went in and it appears the bunker was constructed by hand. Though food was found, nothing suggested anyone slept there, he said. The bunker was located just southwest of the Rexall Centre, where tennis matches are to be held for this summer’s Pan Am/Parapan Am Games, and questions were raised about potential safety concerns. Saunders, who is the executive officer in charge of the Pan Am Games, reiterated nothing

at this point suggests criminal intent in any way, noting it’s not illegal to dig a hole. “Until we get intent, we will continue to investigate,” he said. “We don’t know if someone is building another one somewhere else. My concern is we don’t know why it’s here.” The items found are being forensically tested, he said.

HILARY CATON

hcaton@insidetoronto.com

efore Scarborough native Jill Andrew became known for giving empowering speeches to young women about selfesteem and before she provoked deep conservations about female body image and female representation in the media, she was just Jill: a curvy woman with her own set of insecurities and hardships she had to overcome. “As a child I was sexually abused. I was a victim and a survivor of that,” she said. “One of the first things that I had to get over is that I had done nothing wrong. That’s a huge part of it. It doesn’t matter what poster you read or what PSA (public service announcement) comes on, you oftentimes sit with this feeling of what did I do? Was it the way I was dressed? What did I say to egg the person on or entice them?” After years of therapy and support Andrew accepted that what happened wasn’t her fault. “Your body is not to blame, your person is not to blame and that these are bigger issues than an individual thing. These are systems that we’re living with where men predominantly feel as though they have ownership over women’s When International Women’s Day (IWD) started up in the early 1900s, it was to bring a voice to women’s oppression and inequality, with thousands of females marching in New York City in 1908 calling for shorter working hours, better pay, and the right to vote. Fast forward 107 years and while some gains have been made, some things remain the same, said a former president and vice-chancellor of York University. “The meaning has

bodies,” she explained. “Looking back over my years now, I started to realize I had to take ownership of me and that’s all I can take ownership for; not somebody else’s wrong doings because that’s how we grow.” It’s that same self-ownership Andrew lectures about in her keynote speeches at conferences on university campuses across Toronto. Her acceptance of what happened to her and her own body image led her to become founder of the Body Confidence Canada Awards, the Curvy Catwalk Fashion Fundraiser and co-founder of FatinTheCity.com, a plus-size fashion “fatshion” blog. She also doubles as a body image consultant and works for the Toronto District School Board as a student equity program advisor. There she helps plan conferences, events, workshops and opportunities for children to learn and connect with each other and also help shift their perception of gender roles, what women are capable of achieving and self-esteem. “There’s this idea that we (women) should be thankful that we should be at the table. No. We need to be the people forming the table and bringing the ideas to the table and finding people to help us push our ideas forward. A lot of the work

that I try to do is around that,” Andrew told The Mirror. During her speeches, Andrew focuses on the long-term negative effects on women and girls as they begin to police their bodies. Self-policing, according to Andrew, happens more often than women think; it’s in the form of not going out past a certain time because you could get hurt or not wearing spaghetti straps because you doesn’t want to be labelled a slut. This follows girls into adulthood, she said, explaining some women mute their opinions to avoid being called “bitch in the boardroom” by the boys club. “It’s all of this self-policing we do that doesn’t pay atten-

tion to the larger systemic issues going on that create the environment where women and girls feel like they have to censor themselves, with what they wear or their ideas,” Andrew said “(If it continues) you start to chip away at your own selfesteem and your own worth and your own knowledge and it happens to women all the time.” Andrew believes it’s time we look at how these images affect a woman financially as well as emotionally and physically. “The body image conversation needs to go deeper, we need to encourage women and girls to think about how a negative self-concept or negative self-worth might impact your salary. We know that

women are missing statistically from board of directors, women are missing from politics,” she said. However, the future isn’t bleak. Andrew said awareness is growing of manipulation tactics used when it comes to perceptions of feminine and masculine ideals. And with that awareness, younger people tend to be more vigilant and thus quicker to point out the manipulations online. “I got to tell you they’re more receptive now. I feel like this generation is a frustrated generation. I feel they’re a generation that wants things to be better and are willing to do the work and have the conversations and are willing to do a little more than maybe I did.”

Equality still elusiv

changed quite a bit over time in North America,” Lorna Marsden said of IWD, which is celebrated March 8. “At first, it was for working women in the U.S. who were looking for better wages and working conditions. Now, it’s an occasion status. We have made tremendous gains, but we don’t have equal pay, we are still lacking representation of women in decision making positions, such as

Equality, said while her career has been made somewhat easier by choosing not to have children, she does have understanding for females who have children and find themselves in difficult work-related situations. And if she could give advice to women, it would be numerical in nature. “It is important women do something with numbers,” she said. “That doesn’t

business and cultural. So it’s a mixed bag. International Women’s Day is not a day of action; it’s something to think about. I like that the day is not captured by one ideology or another.” Childcare is still a major barrier for families, and especially women, as they are often the ones who put careers on hold to raise a family, she said.

“The tendency has been for the lowest paid person to stay home, and that has usually been the woman,” she said. Marsden, who is also past president and vicechancellor of Wilfrid Laurier University, a former senator, and author of numerous books including Canadian Women and the Struggle for Equality: The Road to Gender

Pan Ams: athletes’ village complete – on budget, on time Toronto is officially set to welcome thousands of athletes from across the Americas for this summer’s Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. With less than half a year to go before the Toronto 2015 Games start, the athletes’ village is officially complete, with dignitaries and Toronto-area athletes on hand for an official ceremony last Friday. “In less than five months from now, the eyes of the world will be focusing here in Toronto, the GTA and Ontario as we welcome 41 countries and more than 10,000 athletes and officials here to compete in the 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Games in 51 sports, the largest sporting event in the history of Canada,” said Michael Coteau, Ontario minister responsible for the Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. The village will feature a new YMCA, a coffee shop, a store, a dining tent, banking facilities and more. Once the athletes leave, the area will undergo a six-month transformation before becoming a vibrant downtown community with a mix of affordable housing and retail, plus accommodations for George Brown College students. “After the Games, our community partners will transform the athletes’ village into the foundation of a vibrant new Toronto neighbourhood, the Canary District,” said Premier Kathleen Wynne, who noted that, with work complete, the West Don Lands area already shows a glimpse of its long-term future. “You can already see that this is a neighbourhood,” she said. “You can see with your imagination people walking up and down these laneways, in and out of these buildings.” The new community will feature shops, the Cooper Koo YMCA, health-care facilities and housing, with the first permanent residents slated to move in as soon as April 2016 and George Brown students set to enter the school’s residences on site in September 2016. Mayor John Tory noted the development of the $709-million athletes’ village – and the legacy uses for the site – serve as a longoverdue revitalization of an area close to Toronto’s waterfront. “We’ve gathered in a place which people had basically written off not too long ago,” he said. “If you go back and look at what people were saying about this very site that we’re standing on today 20 years ago, I think it’s a miracle we’re standing here today.” Toronto 2015 CEO Saad Rafi also

lauded the work on the athletes’ village, which came in on time and on budget, and which will provide plenty of benefits to the city well beyond the scope of this summer’s sporting event. “Beyond the Games, we’ve launched a new Toronto waterfront community,” he said. “When the athletes have gone home, you’ll see

children playing, students rushing to class, seniors living independently. That vision is soon becoming a reality.” Canadian athlete Samantha Sendal had a chance to visit the athletes’ village while construction was still underway and said she was pleased with what she saw. She pointed out the athletes will

want for nothing – particularly the Canadian athletes, who had first choice of accommodations and had their own area painted red to convey Canadian pride. “There’ll be coffee shops, banks and a 24-hour food tent, and it has a really homey feel,” she said. “There will also be stations set up near the village where our friends and family

Firing up the Pan Am Games Torch Relay Excitement is building for the 41-day journey of the Pan Am Games Torch Relay, which will have more than 180 celebrations. The details of the route have just been released and more than 130 Ontario communities and five communities outside of the province will host the Pan Am flame. The torch relay starts when the Pan Am flame is lit during a traditional Aztec lighting ceremony at the Pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacan, Mexico. It will end on July 10 with the lighting of the cauldron at the opening ceremony in downtown Toronto. The torch relay will visit six Canadian Forces Bases, a national and a provincial park, as well as five First Nations communities, including the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation, the official Host First Nation of the Games. The torch relay will also visit five national historic sites, including Fort Henry in Kingston and the Halifax Citadel. It will also be part of the Canada Day festivities on Parliament Hill on July 1. Three-thousand torchbearers will carry the flame through communities across Ontario as well as Richmond, BC, Calgary, Winnipeg, Montreal and Halifax. The torch will see more than 60 modes of transportation while touring through Canada and exceed 5,000 kilometres on the road and 15,000 kilometres by air. Specific timing for the more than 180 community celebrations, as well as the street-level route, will be confirmed beginning in May.

Local spots for the Pan Am/Parapan Am Torch Run include Earlscourt Park (July 8) and the Mount Dennis Library (July 9).

Weighing ‘The Value of Names’

have known the name of Jeffrey Sweet as the editor of the annual Best Plays books covering the New York Theatre scene. As well as a theatre observer, he is quite a prolific playwright and one of his most frequently performed plays is The Value of Names. The show, being staged in North York by Teatron Toronto Jewish Theatre, deals with an aging actor, Benny Silverman. He was a victim of blacklisting by Joseph McCarthy’s House Un-American Activities Committee. His daughter, Norma, a rising young actress, has been cast in a play directed by Leo Greshen, the man who gave Benny’s name to the HUAC. Adding further insult, Leo is advising Norma to change her surname to blur the family connection. Naturally, Benny is not happy about the proposed name change, and makes it clear he is quite unhappy with his daughter appearing nude in Leo’s production. The tension of the initial meeting between father and daughter gives rise to a particularly prickly reunion between two long-time adversaries. Stepping into the role of Benny with just a few days of preparation, Eric Fink delivers an assured performance. He rides Benny’s anger to the fullest effect and makes the scenes with Justine Lewis as his

The Bay-Bloor pedestrian scramble is one step closer to extinction thanks to the city’s public works and infrastructure committee. The committee voted 5-1 during its meeting on Monday to support a staff recommendation to get rid of the scramble at Bay Street and Bloor Street West that forces car traffic in all directions to come to a halt so pedestrians can freely cross from any side of the four-way intersection. According to staff the negative impact on vehicle traffic is not worth the “modest” benefit to pedestrians. The decision, which requires final assent from city council, has pedestrian advocates concerned about the future of other scrambles, such as at the intersection of Yonge and Dundas streets.

electrical outage, which knocked out subway service from Bloor-Yonge to Union during the rush-hour period. Initially, the TTC attributed the delay to flooding at an electrical substation owned by Toronto Hydro, cautioning it would take up to a minimum three hours to clear up. But at 8:30 a.m., about an hour after the TTC’s statement, Toronto Hydro through its official Twitter account said the delay was not because of the substation but “TTC owned equipment failure.” HOSTS PUBLIC FORUM wTTCRIDERS

To the Samivand Team: I would like to let you know about my experience working with Sam Samivand. It was a pleasure working with him and his team in the sale of my home. Sam has been a consummate professional and very effective throughout the entire process. My interaction with Sam started almost a year before I actually listed the home, and during that year Sam displayed great patience, expertise, and professionalism. This was exhibited in his updates on home sales trends, expected demand, and pricing, delivered on a timely and appropriate basis. When I finally decided to sell my home, Sam demonstrated his expertise with invaluable pre-listing advice. Also helpful were his personal contacts in the preparation and listing of my home, such as a wonderful decorator and a skilled photographer who helped showcase the home beautifully. While the closing on our home has not occurred at the time of this letter, I have the utmost confidence that Sam will continue to provide the appropriate support and guidance necessary to ensure the closing happens uneventfully and successfully. It is with unreserved confidence that I provide the highest recommendation for Mr. Sam Samivand, as I believe he would provide the highest level of professional service to you as he did with us.
