Woman hit by two cars on Lawrence ANDREW PALAMARCHUK apalamarchuk@insidetoronto.com A North York mother is dead after being struck by two cars outside her home yesterday. The accident happened on Lawrence Avenue, east of Dufferin Street, at 6:53 a.m. Neiky Pardo, 33, was pronounced dead at the scene. Police said the pedestrian was crossing Lawrence mid-block from the south side when a westbound gold 2004 Nissan Maxima driven by a 28-year-old man hit her. “She was knocked into the eastbound lanes and struck by an eastbound Volvo,” Const. Clint Stibbe said. The grey 2006 Volvo, driven by a 52-year-old man, was then rearended by a Mazda. It was raining and dark at the time; police believe those were factors in the collision. “But any time you have a midblock crossing, it is dangerous to begin with,” Stibbe said. Pardo, the mother of a young child, lived on Lawrence, steps from the accident scene. Police closed Lawrence between Dufferin and Bolingbroke Road for about five hours as they investigated the collision. “We are appealing for witnesses,” Stibbe said. “We’re asking them to come forward.” Anyone with information should call police at 416-808-1900. One minute after Pardo was struck, a hit-and-run vehicle seriously injured a pedestrian on Eglinton Avenue at Peveril Hill North, a block west of Bathurst Street.

George Brown Huskies basketball team forward Kayla Higgins, 20, chats with her teammate before practice last Thursday. Higgins is in her first year of the community worker program at George Brown, hoping to work in the penitentiary system.
Basketball player aims to help others DAVID GROSSMAN active@insidetoronto.com
K
ayla Higgins can hardly wait to go to jail. A bright 20-year-old North York resident, Higgins is looking at it from a professional perspective – that of helping people – and figures one of the best places is to have an office right in a detention centre.
Higgins grew up in a neighbourhood not far from an area of the city with a reputation for gun and drug crime – Jane and Finch. Driven by passion and a strong commitment to social justice, she wanted to make an impact and help people – those she said who have made mistakes – survive and thrive. And Higgins, quite adamant about her future and also that
of packaging a combination of certificate, diploma and degree – from academic programs related to social work and community service – isn’t wasting any time. “Everyone makes mistakes, some more serious than others, and we hear of far too many stories about people making wrong decisions,” said Higgins, who already has a certificate from George Brown College and
is now working on the diploma in an intense community worker program. “I want to be one of those individuals that helps change lives, get them back on track and become good citizens. What’s wrong with that?” Co-operation, teamwork and mutual support are three of the key factors Higgins believes are >>>courting, page 7

Governor General to open world-first lab at Sunnybrook
Grounded
Governor General David Johnston will visit Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre today to open a world-first lab at the North York hospital. The lab, containing almost 14,000 square metres (150,000 square feet) on two new floors, represents “some of the most innova-
tive medical research space in the world,” a statement from Sunnybrook said. Johnston will tour more than 20 new groundbreaking labs covering a wide variety of medical fields, including stem cell biology, bio-molecular, orthopedics, cardiac care and neurointervention.
Meanwhile, students from Marc Garneau Collegiate Institute’s Talented Offerings for Programs in Sciences (TOPS) will display work they have conducted while interning at Sunnybrook. Johnston will present a prize to the student who presents the most outstanding work.

Say no to a rise in fees
The North York Mirror is published every Thursday and Friday at 175 Gordon Baker Rd., Toronto, ON M2H 0A2, by Toronto Community News, a Division of Metroland Media Group Ltd.
Fight crime by being involved ‘E
ngaged Communities Prevent Crime.’ This is the theme of Crime Prevention Week launched today, which is run by the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services. Give credit where it’s due: local police divisions have done a good job keeping the community engaged through their various social media accounts. Upcoming car seat clinic dates are posted on Scarborough’s 41 Division Facebook page, a video on home security tips can be found on Etobicoke’s 22 Division page, and a link our view to local crime statistics is provided on North York’s 31 Connect with Division page. Kudos to the individual police officers who have taken your community advantage of social media for safety’s sake interacting with community members through their own personal accounts. Const. Glenn Jones from 31 Division is constantly on Twitter, telling the public what program he’s involved with, where he’s going to be, and thanking his followers. Staff Sgt. Kim Scanlan of 23 Division in Etobicoke also tweets regularly, most recently providing tips on having a safe Halloween, and posting photos of local community events she’s attended. Twitter followers of media officer Wendy Drummond would have known to avoid Eglinton Avenue East near McCowan Road in a timely manner due to a gas leak on Halloween. Being more social has helped build a more positive relationship between law enforcement and the public they’re charged to serve and protect. And they’re not hard to find. Just follow the Toronto Police Twitter feed at twitter.com/ TorontoPolice or subscribe to their Facebook page at facebook.com/TorontoPolice to see who’s online. Of course, being engaged also means being connected with those living in your community. While keeping an open dialogue on the web can be useful, there’s no substitute for being active in the neighbourhood. So use the Internet to organize a community event or look for one nearby, then take the next step to attend and get involved with local activities. Crime prevention is a shared responsibility. Crime Prevention Week, a province-wide initiative, officially runs between Nov. 4 to 10 this year. But as you wouldn’t normally stop checking emails, surfing the web or logging into Facebook after just one week, crime prevention and being engaged with your community should be a yearround practice.

To the editor: Re: ‘Rising fees impact youth groups,’ Special Report, Oct. 25. I am Father Andy Leroux pastor of Living Hope on Bellamy Road. Our volunteers have run a sports program at Woburn Collegiate for the past seven years. We have upward of 50 youth on Saturday mornings. Recently, we were told the rental fee would go from $1,200 to $4,500. The problem is it is impossible for us to continue with this program because of the unrealistic hike in the fees. How many other groups are in the same boat? A strong society is based on programs such as ours. Surely, the Toronto District School Board needs to look more carefully at other ways of cutting back – their administration costs, for one example. I am asking for a community groundswell to rise up and say enough. This is our community and we want our youth to grow up healthy, safe and contributors to our (city). Rev. Andy Leroux
Public facilities should be available to all To the editor: Re: ‘Shut Out: Increase in fees puts the squeeze on community groups in search of affordable space,’ Special Report, Oct. 25. Schools, playing fields, parks, libraries and community centres are all essential parts of our communities in Toronto. They belong to the citizens of Toronto and are a part of what makes this city a healthy and safe place for
all of us and our children to live in. The people of Toronto have already paid for these facilities, and we pay taxes so they will be available for any of us to use them when we need to. That’s why the special report matters to all of us. The politicians who have been elected to council and the Toronto District School Board would have us believe
there is no money available to make these community resources available for the people of Toronto. They want us to believe that individual users and teams will have to pay more to use our public facilities. That is not true. The money to make public facilities available for free, or at reasonable rates, is available in Toronto. If we want to continue
to have healthy communities all across Toronto, the people will have to speak up so politicians do not allocate our community resources only to those who have the ability to pay their ever increasing fees. We are a city that has been blessed with many public facilities. Let’s not make these available only to the highest bidder. Allan Baker
Ford has wasted time and money on his subway dreams To the editor: Re: ‘Ford must focus in next two years,’ Editorial, Oct. 26. Mayor Rob Ford has made mountains of rightwing media coverage over his insistence the city is divided – the downtown versus the suburbs. If this is true, then a good mayor would focus
on downplaying this and addressing it – not expanding it and fueling the fire. The mayor must focus on getting transit to all areas of the city in an affordable and sustainable manner. Ford has done nothing but cry and shout ‘I want it my way.’ All he has done is waste time and money. Stop focusing on chang-
ing the agreements that were in place. Ford has wasted two years of construction time. Transit is a major economic ingredient and surface transit is a good way to open those stores that sit unused. Passengers on subways see blank walls whereas on the surface you see places to shop, eat and
be entertained. Economic development is not an underground thing. Another area that Ford must focus is something that your editorial feeds: there is no left, right or centre in city governance. It should be working together for the good of the city, not the good of the media. Glenn Kitchen

On & Off the Wall: Local stages brimming with plays for all ages ON STAGE
Photo/MERLE GARBE
Derrick Evans and Peter Pequegnat appear in a scene from Encore Entertainment’s production of the classic Broadway musical ‘Fiddler on the Roof’, playing through Sunday in the Toronto Centre for the Arts’ Studio Theatre.
‘Fiddler on the Roof’ on stage until Sunday W
hen Fiddler on the Roof premiered on Broadway in September 1964, it proved an instant audience favourite, running for more than seven years. With its tuneful score, rich characters and compelling story, it can be produced big and elaborate but can also be just as effective when done on a smaller, more intimate scale. Encore Entertainment takes the latter approach. Directed by Mario D’Alimonte, the familiar tale of the hardworking dairyman Tevya and his quest to find suitable husbands for his daughters is skillfully acted and wonderfully sung. Derrick Evans makes Tevya a warm, likable and loving father and husband trying to reconcile modern ways with the traditions of his faith. He plays Tevya with less bombast than other stars who have taken on this role, but that simply allows the heart of the man to beat a little bolder for us. When he sings If I Were a Rich Man he milks every laugh without sacrificing character. As his loving but strong-willed wife, Golde, Sarah Haley Matte mixes pragmatism and hope. When the two join voices in the Sabbath Prayer or the comic duet Do You Love Me there is tremendous attention to the underlying meaning of the lyrics. That same attention to detail is found in every performance on view here. When Lisa Ferreira, Mindy Perlmutter and Carina Cautillo join voices in the trio Matchmaker, Matchmaker we sail along with the sprightly tune, while savouring the subtext as these girls consider their future matrimonial prospects. Ferreira is particularly touching as the eldest daughter, Tzeitel, the first to break with tradition. She persuades her father to allow her
Front Row Centre Mark Andrew Lawrence
to marry the man she loves (a poor tailor, Motel, played with gentle comic charm by Daniel Rostas) instead of the rich butcher (forcefully played by Peter Pequegnat) who fancies her. This sets in motion a plan for her sisters to also marry for love with Aaron Sidenberg and Luke Slade as their mates of choice. Sidenberg makes the radical student Perchik playful and charismatic, while Slade makes Fyedka sympathetic. The scene where Tevya shuns his daughter Chava after she elopes outside of her faith with Fyedka allows both Evans and Cautillo moments of heartbreaking anguish. The entire cast – even the smaller roles such as Michelle Cote’s Yente the matchmaker and Zandee Toovey’s Fruma Sarah in the show’s comically macabre dream sequence – creates vivid, believable characters. The sets are kept simple and basic – a table here, a bench there – with projections supplying additional atmosphere. Fiddler on the Roof is a Broadway classic and Encore’s production serves as a sharp reminder of why it remains so. Fiddler on the Roof is on stage in the studio theatre at the Toronto Centre for the Arts, 5040 Yonge St. through Sunday, Nov. 4.

She’s anxious to do well, understands her actions can affect others and, now maturing as a leader, she’s communicating well both on and off the basketball court.” Higgins earned her way on to the starting basketball roster this season at George Brown after spending last year coming off the bench and helping the Huskies claim a bronze medal – their first in 20 years in the Ontario Colleges Athletic Association. She’s also one of the top scorers on the George Brown roster. “Like anything, you work hard and wait for the opportunities,” said Higgins, an MVP at Emery and now top scorer in four pre-season games in the past month with the Huskies (1-4). “Basketball is a game and quite a bit different from what I want to do with my future – to help change society.”

Finished basements can save energy with more living space By finishing your basement, you can gain more living space while reducing the amount of energy loss from downstairs. Basements that are not fully finished typically do not have insulated walls or covered flooring, which can result in heat loss and cause your furnace to work overtime. A renovated basement offers more than additional storage space. It can provide a lot of extra room for a growing family, such as space for a gym, home theatre, office, guest suite, or a playroom for the kids. To ensure a comfortable and inviting basement, there are a few project components to consider: • Insulation will ensure your space is warm and coma pro to ensure your walls fortable.
