James Hyunhae Shim, BS, MS, PhD, HIS 6464 Yonge St. #230 Centerpoint Mall, 2nd Fl

A retirement framed by 37 years of serving customers LISA QUEEN lqueen@insidetoronto.com When Alan Yu and his wife Lynette close the doors on their North York framing and art gallery for the last time Tuesday, they will be saying goodbye to customers who have become like family over the last 37 years.

“It’s going to be sad because I got used to every day coming to work. I will miss all the people.

People bring me coffee (as I work), they are talking here about their family,” Yu said.

He is thrilled that children

who used to come to the store with their parents years ago now “bring their small, little ones to meet me, just like family. That makes me happy because I have done something good.”

Clasi Frames opened its doors in July 1977, making it the first tenant in the Sheppard Centre at the northeast corner of Sheppard Avenue and Yonge Street, Yu said.

Yu, 65, admits owning a framing store and art gallery is not the life he pictured for himself when he came from Hong Kong four decades ago. >>>‘I’, page 8

Second Harvest welcomes celebrity chef as ambassador FANNIE SUNSHINE fsunshine@insidetoronto.com

Staff photo/Lisa Queen

North York General Hospital medical director of cancer and ambulatory care Dr. Stan Feinberg participates in the opening Tuesday of the hospital’s Baruch/Weisz Outpatient Care Clinic.

Outpatient clinic saves patients from ‘abyss’ of long waits for specialists LISA QUEEN lqueen@insidetoronto.com Rather than sending patients who have serious conditions but don’t need hospitalization “into the abyss” while they wait to see a specialist, North York General Hospital’s outpatient care clinic ensures they can be seen promptly for follow up care with an inter-disciplinary team, hospital president Dr. Tim Rutledge says.

“I think it’s a very big deal,” he told The Mirror at the grand opening of the Baruch/Weisz Outpatient Care Clinic Tuesday.

“It’s an inter-professional care model providing the right care at the right time as opposed to letting them go off into the abyss and seeing them two months later. We’re making sure that the ones who really need it are getting care in a short period of time.”

The clinic, which sees about 50 patients a day, treats two kinds of patients with serious but non-life threatening illnesses.

The first are patients who have come to the emergency department with conditions such as gall blad-

der attacks, chest pains that tests conclude don’t put them at risk of a heart attack, pneumonia or severe headaches.

They aren’t sick enough to be admitted to hospital but face the prospect of spending long hours in ER waiting to see a specialist.

The outpatient care clinic allows the ER doctor to provide initial treatment and pain management and send the patient home with a referral to the clinic, usually within 48 hours.

The second are patients admitted to hospital who have recovered sufficiently enough to be discharged but need prompt follow up care.

The clinic, which consolidates several outpatient clinics into a new space, is not meant to replace medical services in the community, stressed Dr. Stan Feinberg, North York General’s medical director of cancer and ambulatory care.

“It’s when you’re sicker and you need more care than you would get from your family doctor and it’s when you don’t need to be in the emerg lying on a stretcher for 10 hours. You may have started your journey lying

on a stretcher but then you get moved out of the emerg more quickly to be able to go home and then come here (to the clinic for follow up),” he said.

“My father was in the emergency room eight months ago. It’s not so comfortable for a 90-year-old guy to be lying on a stretcher, so if you can get him home more quickly, it’s better for him.”

The Baruch and Weisz families donated $1 million towards the clinic.

Ron Baruch, chair of the board of governors of the hospital foundation, said the families are pleased to donate to North York General, which provides outstanding community care.

“I grew up in this area and this is our hospital. One of the reasons I joined (the foundation board), I saw the impact of what it does. Our kids were born here, my dad was palliative here, every part of our family has had successful treatment here one way or another. It inspired me,” he said.

“This has inspired us from an impact standpoint, what it does for patient care and it’s a model for the rest of the world.”

As a chef, Roger Mooking knows first hand how much food goes to waste.

And as a father of four girls, he is aware of how important good nutrition is for growing bodies.

Mooking, who can be seen on cooking shows Everyday Exotic and Chopped Canada on Food Network Canada, and internationally on Heat Seekers and Man Fire Food, is the new ambassador for North York based Second Harvest.

The food rescue organization, established in 1985, rescues excess, fresh food that would otherwise go to waste and delivers it to more than 200 social service agencies in Toronto.

Mooking, who has co-hosted Second Harvest’s charity event Toronto Taste for the past few years, said he was approached recently to be an ambassador for the organization by raising awareness of child hunger in the city, which he happily accepted.

“As a father of four, I know how much food kids really need,” he said. “I think people perceive child hunger as something that happens in another part of the world, like

Africa or Syria.”

According to Second Harvest, almost 40 per cent of its food recipients in Toronto are children and youth, and last year it rescued and delivered nearly three million pounds of fresh, excess food to more than 30,000 young people in the city.

Mooking, who was part of ‘90s trio Bass is Base and has put out three solo albums, said he’s excited to be a Second Harvest ambassador and promote their work at various events.

Debra Lawson, executive director of Second Harvest, said Mooking is “positive, and is going to be a great ambassador for us.

“He totally gets it,” she said.

“He’s so exited to be part of this. As ambassador he will expand awareness (of Second Harvest) and shine light on child hunger in Toronto. He is an incredible human being and he is doing this because he wants to do this.”

Second Harvest collected 7.1 million pounds of food last year, which went to children’s breakfast programs, after school programs, food banks, meal programs and family shelters.

Awareness about oil pipeline activity a priority in Toronto

Write us

I

t travels underground right across Toronto, beside busy roads, near the backyards of homes and an elementary school, has been around for almost 40 years and yet many residents have no idea it even exists.

However, all that is quickly changing for the Enbridge oil pipeline known as Line 9.

Environmental groups are concerned with a federal decision earlier this year to allow bitumen oil, known as tarsands oil, to be pumped through the pipeline.

In today’s edition, residents can learn more about Line 9.

Environmentalists say the bitumen oil is heavier than the light crude oil Line 9 presently carries, and the consequences of a spill due to a breakage in the line could be dire, especially since the line crosses the Humber, Don and Rouge rivers in Toronto.

The environmental concerns are heightened by the age of the line, which was built our view in 1976, and by the fact bitumen oil is considered more corrosive We need a say than light crude.

Enbridge, however, rejects the on emergency notion that bitumen oil will be flowing through Line 9. A spokesresponse plan person said light crude will be the bulk of what Line 9 carries as the refineries that take the oil are not “heavy” refineries. Whether the capability of those refineries changes to deal with bitumen in the future remains to be seen.

As part of the approval by the National Energy Board (NEB) to allow bitumen oil through the pipeline, Enbridge is carrying out work related to pipeline integrity and the creation of an emergency response plan.

And it’s in this emergency plan that Toronto residents need to be especially involved.

Toronto Councillor David Shiner said the City of Toronto is working with Enbridge on emergency response plans, but much of what needs to be done is under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

Enbridge has filed a plan with the NEB and says it is waiting for a response before making the details public.

When those details become public, Toronto residents must be given numerous opportunities for input on the emergency response plan.

Given the thousands of homes and busy roadways located so close to Line 9, Toronto residents’ awareness of Line 9 and an understanding of what to do in an emergency must become a priority for Enbridge, the federal government and the City of Toronto.

Pumpkin sightings popping up all over With winter overstaying its welcome, spring and summer were both relegated to playing a game of catch-up this year and neither seemed to be able to find their stride. Can fall buck this trend and get the seasons back in sync?

It’s a tall order to be sure, but with the sightings of pumpkins, one can hope.

Pumpkins have always been an unofficial beginning of autumn and they’re popping up all over.

It’s getting darker earlier and lighter later, too. It’s also getting cooler in the evenings and mornings – a few more signs that fall is underway.

It’ll be watching the squirrels closely next. It’s typically scurrying time for them right about now. My concern is whether there will be enough nuts out there for all of them. We lost a lot of trees with the icy winter. But I wouldn’t bet against squirrels stepping up their game. They’re

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY a resourceful bunch. I’ll be rooting for them. Fall wouldn’t be fall without squirrels doing their thing.

The leaves look like they’re getting ready to start changing. The Leafs, too.

Both are indications that it’s fall.

The same can be said for the evergreens not changing. You can say that about evergreens any season, of course. But their perpetual glow really stands out in the fall, when all other colours around them begin to fade.

We’re seeing the last of bees and flies for awhile and birds are shrinking in numbers as well. All right on cue.

But there is still a little maintenance that has to take place for fall to truly to be fall. Boats have to all be back to the docks and marinas. Pools have to be covered with tarps. Windows

have to be washed. Screens removed.

And lawn furniture? Bye now. Buh-bye. You too, lawn mower. Back to the shed for both of you. Rakes get in standby mode.

Uh, uh, uh, snow shovels.

Don’t so much as flinch.

Don’t even think about it. This is Toronto, not Calgary. We’ll let you know when we need you. Our people will call your people.

White pants? Take a hike.

What do you think you’re doing out here? You should have been gone long after Labour Day. You know the rules.

Light, skimpy clothes? As much as we enjoy wearing and watching you, nothing lasts forever. Adios until next summer.

Coats and jackets you can leave your hangers.

Cuddly sweaters you can come out of your drawers.

And that’s about it.

Due to climate change the seasons have been taking a real hit of late. Fall

has not escaped its wrath, but it doesn’t seem to have been affected nearly as much as the other three which is a tribute to the resilience of its key components: pumpkins, leaves, squirrels and the like.

So turkeys, over to you.

You’re by far the biggest fall stars of all and you’ll be front and centre in short order. Given the circumstances there is sure to me more pressure on you this Thanksgiving than ever before.

It’s a lot to ask I know and we’ll all understand if you’re not up to it. But a word of advice before you do decide if you’re going to decide to step up to the plate or not: if you can’t stand the heat, you might want to stay out of the kitchen.

Ward race: councillor responds Looking for help to honour Re: ‘Normally low-key race turns nasty’ North York Mirror, Sept. 18 and insidetoronto.com To the editor: A recent Mirror article reports the events of the campaign as if two opponents are trading insults.

Candidates for political office are entitled to their own opinions. They are not entitled to their own facts.

Part of the role of the media is to help readers separate the truth from the fiction.

1) My opponent is quoted lamenting the “mudslinging” in this campaign. Yet his campaign literature is largely made up of attacks on me. My literature doesn’t mention

him, directly or indirectly. A review of websites leads to a similar conclusion.

2) The article states that I “say” David Mousavi has been endorsed by Ford Nation. The reporter had a link to the leading Ford Nation Facebook page, where the endorsement is openly stated. This is a verifiable fact, not an opinion.

3) The issue of the paid “protesters” outside my office being connected to the Mousavi campaign could also have been verified. This is presented as a statement and denial without any investigation of fact.

4) My opponent is quoted making comments

about a building permit.

A check of the facts would show that, as a tenant, I have nothing to do with a building permit, and that I did not occupy the office while renovations were going on. As of the beginning of my lease, Sept. 6, a building permit was posted in the window.

This article seems to have been written with an artificial “balance” in mind.

Some additional effort to verify the difference between fact, and “mudslinging” would be in the best interest of the voter and the community.

Councillor John Filion

Why stop at euthanizing raccoons: reader To the editor: I read Toronto council is discussing the possibility of euthanizing raccoons.

I just don’t understand why council wants to just include raccoons.

Let’s get rid of squirrels, too. I have also seen those pesky skunks lurking around at night up to no good. The worst are the birds.They have been doing their business on my lawn furniture.

And, with fall now upon us, there is nothing more aggravating as raking up leaves.

Please, can you cut down all the trees, too?

Second World War sacrifice To the editor: In 1944, an RCAF Wellington crashed over our village of Roade, Northampton, U.K., killing all six personnel aboard.

We are erecting a plaque to ensure these boys are not forgotten.

We have made contact with friends and relatives of four of the men, but have

drawn a blank on the other two, including a Toronto man. We are hoping a reader will remember him, or that a local researcher may be able to look up his family.

The man’s details are: F/O Robert J. Andrews, J27301 RCAF, Pilot, from Toronto, Ontario, Age: 21, Date of Birth: 29 May 1923, Date of Death: 29 June 1944,

Rank: Flying Officer, Unit: Royal Canadian Air Force, Service Number: J27301 Extra Information: Son of Ray E. Andrews and Vera S. Andrews, of Toronto Please contact me if you think you can help. Many thanks.

Help needed for York South-Weston youth Re. ‘Man killed in shooting at Jane and Eglinton,’ insidetoronto.com To the editor: York South-Weston once again is the scene of a deadly shooting in which one young man was killed and a second one is fighting for his life in the hospital.

The police, as of this writing, have not caught the perpetrator of this

crime.

We do however know one thing; there is a major problem with our youth in York South-Weston and this must be addressed, otherwise it will keep getting worse.

We have a municipal election in October and we must ask and demand our candidates, who are asking for our votes, to show us how they will bring

jobs and industries to York South-Weston and also to make our community safe.

It is your vote and you must not give it lightly – you must receive satisfactory answers.

We must work together to make York South-Weston safe and vibrant for us, our children and future generations.

ith newly installed display cases and artistic banners painted on the walls, a rededication ceremony of the Herbert H. Carnegie Centennial Centre was held Friday with the late hockey player’s family and students from across the GTA in attendance.

Carnegie, who lived most of his life in North York, was a hockey player with the Quebec Aces in the Quebec Senior Hockey League in the 1940s who, despite great talent, never made it to the NHL because it was uncommon for black men to have a professional hockey career in those days.

After his hockey career ended he turned his attention to business, where he worked as a senior accounts executive and financial planner.

But Carnegie’s love of hockey never waned, and he established the Future Aces Hockey School in 1955 at Mitchell Field, the first registered hockey school in Canada.

He wrote the Future Aces Creed the following

“

This is an opportunity to share my father’s legacy.

People who come to the arema will now know the person it’s named after.

– Bernice Carnegie

year to help youth develop self-knowledge and selfconfidence. ‘Future’ stands for always striving for improvement and ‘Aces’ is an acronym for attitude, ability, action, achieve; cooperation, courage, confidence; example, empathy, education; and service, sportsmanship.

Carnegie introduced the Future Aces philosophy to schools in 1979, and founded the Herbert H. Carnegie Future Aces Foundation in 1987, which has awarded more than $600,000 in citizenship awards and scholarships to date.

And in 2001, the North York Centennial Centre at Bathurst Street and Finch Avenue was renamed the Herbert H. Carnegie Centennial Centre.

“He worked to help inspire young boys at the time to not only be pas-

sionate about what you’re doing with your sporting life, but life itself,” Carnegie’s daughter, Bernice Carnegie, said of her father’s goal for his hockey school.

“He should have been the Jackie Robinson (first black Major League Baseball player) of hockey, but what came after hockey literally helped thousands of students in finding new horizons in life.”

The two display cases at the arena are filled with pictures, plaques, awards and newspaper articles of Carnegie, which were kept in boxes Bernice inherited.

Some of Carnegie’s memorabilia was on display when his namesake arena opened, but they were removed over the years due to disrepair.

“We’ve redone everything,” Bernice said. “This is an opportunity to share my father’s legacy. People who come to the arena will now know the person it’s named after.”

Bernice said she could picture her dad, who died in 2012 at age 92, with a wry smile and beaming eyes if he was able to know about the rededication ceremony.

“He was a humble guy,” she said. “He would say, ‘wow, isn’t this wonderful.’

He had such grace every time he got an honour.”

The ceremony included remarks from York Centre Councillor James Pasternak and York Centre MPP Monte Kwinter, who brought greetings from Premier Kathleen Wynne.

Students from the Africentric Alternative School performed a drumming and dance performance, and a portrait of Carnegie was unveiled by graphic artist Mark Stoddart, along with artwork by Durham Region high school students Sarah Gubala and Summer Mackie.

Carnegie has been inducted into 12 halls of fame, including the Ontario Sports Hall of Fame earlier this month.

He is also a recipient of the Order of Ontario, the Order of Canada, and the Queen’s Silver, Golden, and Diamond Jubilee medals.

The mission of the Future Aces Foundation: To assist and inspire youth and adults to become the best they can be as responsible, respectful, peaceful, confident and caring citizens.

>>>from page 1 He initially wanted to study math in the United States, with his sights set on becoming a high school math teacher.

He couldn’t afford the tuition for the entire course but was able to attend the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point for a year before he returned to Canada to attend Waterloo Lutheran University, now Wilfrid Laurier University.

While in Wisconsin, he met his future wife, Lynette, a young, talented artist.

The couple married and later had a daughter, Allison.

Given Lynette’s artistic talents, the Yus decided to open a framing store and art gallery in Burlington.

“We started a business there but I always wanted to start a business in the big city,” Yu said.

Among the artwork lining the walls of the store are paintings by Lynette of North York and Toronto landmarks, including the former Dempsey hardware store at the northwest corner of Sheppard and Yonge, Mel Lastman Square, Gibson House Museum and the Toronto District School Board headquarters.

Meanwhile, Yu learned how to frame, buying directly from wholesalers and doing extra work himself to help save his customers money.

Despite having no business or art background, Yu said he has loved serving people.

“I put my heart to each customer. You have to consider the customer is yourself, part of your family. That is what I built my business (on)

Alan Yu will be closing his Clasi Frames Art Gallery at the Sheppard Centre on Sept. 30. The shop was the first tenant of the retail centre when it opened 37 years ago.

because at that moment, I don’t care what kind of profit I make. I just want people to know I’m in here to serve the public,” he said.

He turned to the advice of his father, Ting H. Yu, who had worked in the textile trade in Hong Kong.

“My father always said you have to be honest to the customer. They will know right away whether you are honest or not. That is very true. The customer knows right away, they sense right away,” Yu said.

It’s easy for a framer to get customers to spend a lot of money on high-priced frames, but Yu said he always focused on what his customers could afford.

“I’m happy I have that policy so I can stay for 37 years,” he said, adding there aren’t many framing stores that stay in business for almost four decades.

“It’s a luxury business, it’s not a necessary business. If people have extra money,

now available!

they do custom framing so you have to do what they can afford. Have an honest attitude and don’t be afraid to lose money.”

In their retirement, Lynette will continue to paint and will also enjoy gardening, while Yu plans to volunteer with their church, Lansing United Church, and participate in activities where he can speak to people.

“I won’t be stopped,” he said.

Thinking of the closing his doors for the last time Sept.

30, Yu said he will miss his customers and the feeling is clearly mutual.

“In here, most people are sad that I’m leaving,” he said.

“I have laots of friends.

Sometimes, they have tears when they see I’m closing.

I must be doing something good.”

Paralympians aim to level playing field for students with disabilities Teacher resource program launched at North York school CLARK KIM ckim@insidetoronto.com

Staff Photo/IRVIN MINTZ

Canadian Paralympic gold medal alpine skier Josh Dueck talks with students at Sloane Public School last Thursday during the launch of the Canadian Paralympic Committee’s Paralympic FUNdamentals physical literacy resource for schools across the country.

Paralympians Victoria Nolan and Josh Dueck visited Sloane Public School last Thursday to launch a resource available for elementary school teachers across Canada to make physical education classes inclusive for children of all abilities.

It’s something Nolan, co-author of the Paralympic FUNdamentals resource program, said she wished

existed when she grew up visually impaired.

“As a child, I wasn’t able to participate in sports,” said Nolan, recalling that she often practised on her own in the hallway. “I just thought it was something I couldn’t do. As I got older, my self-esteem started to plummet.”

But then she heard about Brian McKeever, a visually impaired skier who won two gold medals in the 2006 Paralympic Games in Torino, and decided to give para-rowing a try.

“It really brought me back to life,” said Nolan, who competed in the 2008 and 2012 Paralympic Games and is currently a Toronto special education teacher.

You’re their world.

And that’s worth protecting.

Now she’s hoping children, both able-bodied and with disabilities, can participate in sports activities together aided by the physical literacy resource she wrote with Stephanie Bowerman, a York University course director specializing in adapted physical activity.

The Canadian Paralympic Committee along with Physical and Health Education Canada unveiled the resource at the North York school, one of 42 schools that participated in the pilot project for the past year.

“It was super easy to follow,” said Beth Ritchie, a teacher at Sloane, who used the resource for the past year and taught her students to play a variety of inclusive sports activities including boccia, sitting volleyball and goalball.

She added it helped to level the playing field as all the students gained confidence while participating in new sports and learning more about the Paralympics.

Dueck, a three-time Paralympic medallist in para-alpine skiing in Sochi 2014 and Vancouver 2010, enforced to the children that being physically active is important.

Grade 5 student Eden Yang said playing different parasports was a great learning experience: “You had to do everything as a team to accomplish your goal.”

Agaash Jeychandran said he learned to not give up. “Try your best and go with the flow,” said the Grade 5 student. “If you’re not that good at it, try, try and try again.”

Environmental groups are stirring up protest at the possibility that tarsands oil could be pumping through our neighbourhoods MARK A. CADIZ mcadiz@insidetoronto.com

Scarborough resident, subject to 30 conditions that Ruth Gill, a member of Scarborough Bitumen Free will require Enbridge to carry Future (SBFF), is concerned out activities related to pipeabout the expected transport line integrity and emergency of bitumen oil, commonly response plans.

Students from Cresthaven referred to as tarsands oil, that could flow through the Public School in North York pipeline. While Enbridge says recently turned to YouTube to the line will be used mainly express their views after they for conventional oil, Gill discovered the pipeline was right beside their school. remains uneasy about the possibility.

bound for Montreal, Que. The pipeline enters Etobicoke south of Eglinton Avenue West from Mississauga heading north alongside a portion of Hwy. 401. It then turns east north of Finch Avenue heading eastbound through North York and Scarborough. As it leaves Scarborough’s eastern border it travels through Rouge Park lands.

Enbridge spokesperson Graham White said Line 9 has been misrepresented by those opposed to it, and it is not a tarsands oil pipeline.

“Line 9 will carry primarily light oil as it did prior to the planned reversal. The destination refineries are ‘light’ refineries and do not have significant capability to refine heavy products like bitumen oil,” he said.

However, Enbridge has permitted shippers to transport different oil blends which includes heavier grades such as bitumen.

The 38-year-old pipeline could start transporting the heavier grade bitumen as early as December, say some environmental groups.

Sa b r i n a Bow m a n , o f Environmental Defence, is skeptical of Enbridge’s assertion that the line will pump mainly light oil.

“With the NEB approval they can pump as much of the tarsands oil as they want and we wouldn’t know,” she said.

Since the NEB approval, a series of integrity digs on the pipeline have been taking place to help support the planned capacity increase, said White, with one work site being at G. Ross Lord Dam and Park in North York.

Environmental groups cite an Enbridge spill that

saw 3.3 million litres of oil go into Michigan’s Kalamazoo River on July 25, 2010 as cause for concern. That spill is estimated to have cost Enbridge more than $1 billion and is reportedly the largest on-land oil spill in U.S. history according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Last December, in light of the growing concerns, Toronto City Council requested Enbridge have an emergency response strategy in place for Toronto in order to minimize the impact of any potential spill.

Wa rd 2 4 W i l l ow d a l e Councillor David Shiner has been a part of the city effort to implement safety emergency response plans. At the moment, he said there are no such plans in place in the Greater Toronto Area.

“We are trying to make sure Enbridge can make the line as safe as it possibly can make it,” Shiner said.

“But the city can only do so much since it’s an issue that needs to be handled at the federal level. The federal government gave permission, but hasn’t pressured Enbridge, as much as the City of Toronto has done to implement safety procedures. Right now the city doesn’t have the capacity to respond to a disaster.”

Enbridge filed an Emergency Response Action Plan this past July with the NEB and is waiting for feedback before releasing details about it later this October.

Having spoken to communities along Line 9, Environmental Defence said most residents they contacted were unaware of the pipeline and the possibility of it carrying tar sands oil.

While White said that between May 2012 and July

2013, Enbridge met with more than 60 municipalities, 150 emergency responder groups, six conservation authorities, landowner groups, 14 Aboriginal communities and the provincial governments of Ontario and Quebec regarding the line.

In a community meeting

about Line 9, SBFF handed out Tamil and Chinese pamphlets in order to improve the communication gap among north Scarborough residents, who they said knew nothing of the pipeline.

Lack of school field trips taking toll on attractions MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com School field trips have become less common at some large Toronto attractions.

Toronto’s school boards said they don’t track field trips or destinations, but staff at the Toronto Zoo and Ontario Science Centre agreed numbers for such visits have been falling steadily since 2008.

The problem is so significant the zoo, science centre, Art Gallery of Ontario and Royal Ontario Museum formed a working group to try to reverse the trend, Heather House, the zoo’s education manager, told a meeting of its management board recently.

The zoo saw its first increase in school visits last year since 2008, but House said the decline beforehand was common across North America, due partly to school

budget restrictions, rising transportation costs, more demand on bus companies and more paperwork.

The Toronto District School Board had 38,000 fewer students in 2011 than in 2001 and the city’s elementary student population is expected to reach a low point in 2015, with a secondary-student-level low in 2019 or 2020, she said.

Teachers, who make most decisions on where class trips go, face more pressure to cover curriculum and prepare students for standardized tests.

The zoo, which gets 10 per cent of its attendance and six per cent of admission revenues from field trips, charges $8 for elementary students and $9 for secondary students, while the science centre charges $6, the ROM $8 and the AGO $10.

Though the zoo managed to draw 132,000 students last year, its first increase in seven

years – House said the giant panda exhibit certainly helped – it understands the price of transportation can put many such visits out of reach.

“Teachers are complaining about how much it costs to get their students out here,” said Peter Simpson, the zoo’s business development officer.

Michael Ho, a zoo board member, said going into schools seems more cost effective as a promotional tool than bringing classes to the zoo. Hosting school assemblies is “a marketer’s dream,” he said.

“We know if we put a dollar in, we get $10 back.”

Zoo staff will report on prospects for sponsorships and on outreach visits for schools early next year, the board decided at its meeting.

david nickle the city wants to hear from them.

Ari Goldkind, a criminal lawyer with a progressive platform and a genially aggressive style, has been complaining for months about the fact that debate organizers won’t invite him to the table to test his ideas against Chow’s and Tory’s and Ford’s. On Monday night, the Forum poll finally found he charted.

Morgan Baskin, an articulate young community activist, has been running a youthoriented campaign from the fringes, and has rarely had a chance to debate issues.

There are dozens of others and each and every one of them, I suspect, will be a little miffed that I didn’t name check them in this column. To those, I offer no apology: absent ideas or coherent expression of same, a candidate deserves

every inch of the fringe they inhabit.

But candidates like Goldkind and Baskin are a different matter. Both are attempting to inject reasonable and thoughtful alternatives into the debate, all while wearing appropriate business attire (something by no means a given among the fringe candidates). They don’t have CVs (at least not the kind that get you elected mayor), they aren’t famous – aren’t even infamous. But they seem like they have a plan.

It’s a tough row to hoe, having to sell both one’s controversial notions and one’s untested credibility at a time when all eyes are looking elsewhere. Here’s hoping Goldkind and Baskin and other fringe candidates dreaming impossible dreams in October find energy for advocacy and outreach between November and the next election.

We are a free country – or at least, a free enough country to allow anyone with citizenship, some cash and a birth certificate showing they’re out of short-pants to run for public office.

When it comes to actually holding that office...well, we’re not quite free enough to let just anybody do that. Fame, money – even infamy – is a prerequisite.

The mayor’s city councillor brother Doug Ford, who launched his race for the mayor’s seat with a hasty Saturday afternoon canvass and a cobbled-together platform, was polling 23 per cent before he even cleared his throat for his first debate Tuesday. John Tory and Olivia Chow both rode into the campaign with public CVs sufficiently massive to attract money with an almost gravitational force.
