Because I’ve got better things to do Without the seasonal responsibility of a homeowner I'm enjoying life with both old and new friends. Now I have all the time I need to enjoy the lifestyle I worked hard to achieve. There’s a putting green here, my game’s improved and there’s a new spring in my step. I’m part of a community of active people too busy to act retired. I feel like I just won the Canadian Open!

Pay attention to federal campaign
A
federal election. Oh yes, almost forgot, didn’t you? It was an unusual (some would say cynical) move by Prime Minister Stephen Harper to drop the writ in the middle of the August long weekend – effectively extending the official campaign up to the Oct. 19 voting day by another few weeks. It’s understandably challenging, with weeks left in summer, for voters to begin pondering their choices. Moreso, even with a number of candidates already declared, the official cut-off date for nominations doesn’t arrive until late September. But here we are. For better or worse, the campaign is on. And for Toronto, in the midst of the typical rhetoric, mud-slinging and sloganeering that comes with any election campaign, residents must take a hard look at what the candidates and their parties vow to do for this city. Twenty-five of the our view 338 members of Parliament will be coming from Toronto. That’s significant percentage – regardSpeak loudly aless of party affiliation of its memon Toronto’s bers, Toronto’s representatives need to be vocal about the city’s priorities needs. So for residents, it’s worth paying attention to the campaign. For candidates, it’s worth crafting thoughtful, evidence-based platforms to address ongoing challenges the city faces. Hint: Transit comes to mind. This election will see a number of changes. Particularly downtown and in the north and eastern parts of the city, there are a number of boundary changes. This is brought about in part by the creation of new ridings including Don Valley North in North York, and Scarborough-Rouge Park and Scarborough North in Scarborough; Trinity-Spadina, downtown, has been replaced with University-Rosedale and Spadina-Fort York. Once a Liberal bastion federally, the city in 2011 saw a healthy mix of Liberal, NDP and Conservative candidates elected. It will be interesting to see if that trend continues. According to statistics from Elections Canada, the voter turnout in 2011 was 61.1 per cent, up from the historic low of 58.8 per cent in 2008, but still one of the lower voter turnouts in Canadian federal election history. That number needs to be higher. It may be the dog days of summer. There may be other things on your mind. Just remember that this is already ongoing.

OK...Blue Jays...let’s – talk – noise! When long-time Blue Jays radio announcer Jerry Howarth is calling a game, the moment the Jays start putting runs up on the board he gleefully exudes: “The Blue Jays are in flight.” Well, if he were commenting on the reaction of Jays fans to seeing the explosive firepower of the American League’s highest scoring team, “in flight” doesn’t go far enough. “In orbit” is more like it. And it’s not just runs that are igniting fan response lift off. Great plays in the field do it, too. So do stolen bases, strikeouts of an opposing batter, bullpen saves, walks, balks, you name it. Heck, fans are even going gaga over simple player introductions. Take the ones for fivetime all-stars, shortstop Troy Tulowitzki and pitching ace David Price, who were recently acquired within 48 hours of each other just prior to the trade deadline. When they simply made their first appear-
jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY ance at the plate and on the mound respectively, the Rogers Centre crowd erupted. My how times have changed, eh? Back in August 1992, prior to the Jays’ first World Series title, Dave Winfield made an impassioned plea to the oftdescribed reserved – as in audibly restrained – fan base to make noise. The 2015 version now screams at the drop of a hat. Or bat. Likely a rosin bag, too, the way things are going. The players are impressed and humbly appreciative. Price said it’s the best crowd he’s ever experienced. Reliever Mark Lowe, who just came over from the Seattle Mariners, knows first-hand that when the Jays play in Seattle, Jays fans out-scream the locals. While the decibel level around here has been
higher since the trade deadline acquisitions that also included left-fielder Ben Revere and reliever LaTroy Hawkins, the crowd has been rocking since the preseason began. Off-season pickup catcher Russell Martin was the recipient of several standing ovations in Montreal during a twogame exhibition series with the Cincinnati Reds. The other big name off-season addition, third baseman Josh Donaldson, for whom the crowd now chants “M-V-P”, has repeatedly brought the audience to its feet since opening day. The dazzling highlightreel catches by centre fielder Kevin Pillar have inspired the same mania, as have the slick defensive gems by second baseman Ryan Goins. The timely slugging of Chris Colabello and Justin Smoak has also not gone unnoticed. Nor has the inning-eating dependability of hurlers Mark Buehrle, R.A. Dickey and Marco
Estrada. The youthful relieving tandem of 23-year-old set-up man Aaron Sanchez and 20-year-old closer Roberto Osuna are also making hearts and vocal chords go pit-a-pat. When you add stalwarts Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion into the mix, it’s apparent there is something special going on. And this fandemonium is all just for the regular season. Imagine what the joint will sound like if they make it to the World Series. So, Dave Winfield, if you’re reading this and you’re coming to the Rogers Centre for the sold-out series with the Yankees this weekend, a word of warning. I wouldn’t bring my noise meter along, unless you’ve got a really good device insurance plan.

Canada Revenue fraud scam targets single female seniors TAMARA SHEPHARD tshephard@insidetoronto.com Toronto police are warning residents, particularly single female seniors, of a scam in which people posing as Canada Revenue Agency officials call and threaten jail time unless erroneous back taxes are paid immediately. Toronto police fraud Const. Cornelus Gutter said the fraudsters share personal information about their victims in an attempt to appear legitimate. But that information is easily gained from victims’ social media accounts, like LinkedIn, Facebook or Instagram, he said. “They like to focus on elderly females,” said Gutter, who is with south Etobicoke’s 22 Division. “ They become quite aggressive trying to back you into forwarding them money. They’ll say you owe Canada
Revenue Agency money for unpaid taxes. They’ll threaten to send a car over to arrest you. They tell you your credit history will be destroyed.” A big tip off is that perpetrators will demand victims electronically transfer the funds or pay in prepaid credit cards, something Canada Revenue Agency would never do, Gutter said. “Canada Revenue Agency would never request your personal information over the phone,” the veteran officer said. “They would never ask you to get prepaid credit cards to pay overdue taxes. They would never leave you voicemail messages with your personal information on it.” Gutter urged anyone who receives the calls to ask the caller his or her name, office phone number and email address. “Then say, ‘I’m going to
call you back. First, I want to talk to the police or talk to my lawyer,’” he advised. “Watch their reaction. They’ll get very angry, or they’ll just hang up.” Most importantly, don’t commit to anything, he added advised. “They’re relying on you acting in haste,” he said. “Call somebody. Call the police. Go to the front desk of any police station. Call your family lawyer. If you don’t want to call police or your lawyer, call a neighbour, a pastor, a friend, your son or daughter. Ask, ‘does this sound right?’” Gutter said almost all complainants whose case he has investigated would not have fallen victim to the scam “if they had just asked questions or slowed down.”

North York student cops Catholic school board honour Graduates from Senator O’Connor with 99.5% average TARA HATHERLY thatherly@insidetoronto.com The Toronto Catholic District School Board is the latest in an impressive list to honour
a local teenager. The board named 17-yearold Justin Wiens one of its 2014/2015 Top Scholars, after the Scarborough resident graduated from North York’s Senator O’Connor College School with a 99.5 per cent average. Wiens, who attended Scarborough’s St. Agatha Catholic School during his
elementary years, moved to the North York high school to continue his French immersion education. The humble young man said he was a little surprised when he learned he was honoured by his school board. “I was pretty happy when I heard,” he said. “It feels good when you put in hard work and you get good results.”

Wiens, who is looking forward to studying engineering science at the University of Toronto in September, has been racking up the accolades lately. He was chosen as one of the University of Toronto President’s Scholars of Excellence, earning him a $10,000 entrance scholarship, and awarded a Governor General’s Bronze Academic Medal. He will also receive his Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award later this year. The award honours youth who demonstrate a well-rounded range of interests, strong commitment to their goals and active participation in their communities. Well-rounded certainly describes Wiens’ accomplishments. Along with playing alto sax and piano, he is an active member of his church. A lifeguard and competitive swimmer, he also has a second-degree black belt in taekwondo that he uses to teach the martial art to others

at Variety Village, as well as referee matches. At Senator O’Connor, he was a member of the swim team, concert and jazz bands, and school newspaper, all while amassing 700 volunteer hours.
He credits all his activities with helping him achieve top marks at school. “The extracurriculars, and volunteering and working, it teaches you time-management and how to commit,” he noted. “It definitely helps you a lot, and it will help me for sure in university.” The recent graduate also scored awards from the prestigious College Board’s Advanced Placement Program, including National AP Scholar, AP Scholar with Distinction and AP International Diploma. His parents said Wiens’ accomplishments are inspiring. “We’re just so proud,” said his father, Richard Wiens. “He worked so hard. It didn’t come easily. It took a lot of hard work.” His mother, Iva Wiens, agreed. “We were ecstatic,” she said of his recent awards. “We saw the dedication, and his focus. He had his goals, and he went after them.”

Wheels on the Danforth gives back to community Crossroads BIA will be hosting its sixth annual Wheels on the Danforth, with proceeds going to charity. And this year will be better than ever. Friday, August 14 will start the weekend off with a laugh. Guests will enjoy a comedy show featuring celebrity Mike Bullard, alcoholic beverages and a silent auction. While adults are having fun at the comedy show, families are welcome to come out to Oakridge Park for a free movie night. Sprawl out under the stars and watch Disney’s Cars, starting at sunset. The event is sure to have something for everyone. On Saturday, August 15, guests can check out hundreds of cool rides in the car shows. Classic vehicles will turn on the nostalgia throughout the day with tuners taking over in the evening. According to Tip Top Collision owner and chair of Crossroads BIA Joe Murillo, everyone has a car story to tell when they visit the car show, making each experience a personal one. Last year, current Toronto mayor John Tory stopped by and reminisced about his father’s old Chevy. This year, get an autograph from Bill Brack, the first inductee into the Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame, or Ron Gibbs, an amazing custom painter and pinstriper.
For those who prefer two wheels, Craz E Crew BMX Demonstration Stunt Team will take over the streets for a jaw dropping demonstration. Popular graffiti artist Wong will also be around to showcase his talent. Young families can visit the kids’ zone for bouncy castles, face painting, music and more throughout the day. The main stage will feature Big Bob Hammond and the Blus Bros with DJs playing electronic music into the night. 35 vendors will take over the streets for some great shopping and delicious treats. Tickets for the comedy show are $30 at the door or online with all proceeds going to the Royal Canadian Legion’s “Operation Leave the Streets Behind.” Admission to the event is free.

Volunteer group handed provincial award of excellence >>>from page 1 Those heritage assets include the Gibson House Museum, David Duncan House, Dempsey Store, Elihu Pease House, O’Connor House, the Miller Tavern, and the OHS’s own headquarters, the John McKenzie House. “Every day is a battle to get heritage recognized,” said Geduld, who became a member of the NYHS in 1978. The local historical society itself began in 1960 when residents were concerned that signs of their early history were vanishing. Since then, the NYHS has provided a number of educational opportunities through historical walking tours, public art exhibitions, heritage speakers events, and a list of publications.
More recently, the historical society partnered with the Toronto Public Library to preserve some of its history collection in the North York Central Library’s Canadiana Department, which is easily accessible to the public. “We participate in a lot of local, community things,” Geduld added. And it doesn’t seem to have gone unnoticed as several organizations like the Toronto Public Library and City of Toronto, as well as individuals including local politicians, all endorsed the NYHS to be the recipient of this year’s Scadding Award of Excellence. “We got a lot of letters of support,” Geduld said.

North York General transforms Phillips House >>>from page 1 program from the main site at Leslie Street and Hwy. 401, and the child and adolescent outpatient mental health services from the Branson site. With a catchment area of Toronto and parts of Vaughan and Markham, the new site will also assist young women in making the transition from the hospital’s adolescent program to the adult mental health program. The design by Montgomery Sisam Architects will include bright, sunlit rooms, and a new trellised veranda and outdoor dining room. The property will also incorporate garden space and walking paths. A semi-historical building, the site’s facade will be kept intact. Built in 1945, the neoGeorgian-style Phillips House was originally owned by one of Canada’s most prominent business figures, W. Eric Phillips, who acted as director of more than a dozen companies and sat on a number of boards. It previously served as a residential facility for addic-

tion and a centre for speech language pathology. “We were thrilled to be selected as the firm to implement the hospital’s vision for the Phillips House,” said principal architect Alice Liang. “It is also very rewarding to be part of a rigorous selection process where design mattered the most. We were honoured to be in great company with two other excellent architectural firms in participating in the design competition that focused on creative thinking and innovative design approach.”

As a firm that has planned, designed and built several large-scale mental health and addiction facilities across Ontario and Canada, including the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health and Sister Margaret Smith Addictions Treatment Centre in Thunder Bay, Montgomery Sisam Architects “saw great opportunity in the Phillips House redevelopment project as the hospital’s vision fully aligns with our approach to delivering mental healthcare in a warm, familiar, home-like environment that removes
stigma, quells patients and families’ anxieties, while supporting staff’s daily work in a non-institutional setting,” Liang said. “Having learned from these patients firsthand the importance of a healing environment, how therapeutic nature plays a significant role in their ultimate recover, I am excited that the Phillips House project incorporates the ‘beautification’ and enhancement of its landscaped grounds.” Though only in the design phase, construction will aim to start next spring pending building permits and various government agency approval, said Cliff Harvey, vice-president of planning, facilities and support services for NYGH, adding the site will be renamed in the future. Renovation costs will be fully donor funded and North York General Foundation has so far raised $5.3 million of its $7-million goal.

������� RENOS START AT UNION STATION ◗MORE The Bay GO passenger concourse at Union Station is set to close starting Sunday for an extended amount of time so Metrolinx can complete extensive renovations. It will take two years before the work is done – yet another major project for riders to traverse through at Union – but Metrolinx is promising the finished product will offer more space plus connections to GO train platforms and direct access to Union’s new retail concourse level, which is expected open next year. During the construction, GO riders will have to make use of the York concourse which opened back in April.

A subsequent investigation found a safety measure intended to deploy emergency train brakes should a signal to stop be ignored was defective. The accident resulted in multiple recommendations from Ontario’s coroner on improving TTC safety. The TTC is currently overhauling its entire signalling system on the Yonge-UniversitySpadina line to allow for automatic train operation. ART PROJECT SCREECHES TO A HALT ◗TRANSIT
Art in Transit is no more. The program showcased visual and multimedia artistic contributions from artists around the world, turning staid TTC subway station platforms into impromptu galleries. But the TTC’s advertising partner Pattison Onestop announced it’s put-
ting Art in Transit on hiatus after nine years of exhibitions. The Toronto Urban Film Festival (TUFF) also organized by Pattison, will return for its ninth year in September. PAN AM PATH ART RELAY SATURDAY ◗FINAL The Parapan Am Games are winding down, and with it the Pan Am Path Art Relay. The initiative allowed art lovers to cycle or walk to cultural happenings taking place along the multi-use path that opened before the Pan Am Games, linking 84 kilometres of trails in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. The relay was intended to showcase the creative output of artists in communities along the city portion of the path. The final Art Relay takes place Saturday starting at Rouge Beach in Scarborough.
