Make-up workshops help cancer survivors take back control For Lan To-Lee, losing her hair to chemotherapy was the toughest part of battling breast cancer. The Markham resident was diagnosed in May, with a mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation quickly following. She cut her thick, long hair short before chemotherapy started, knowing the inevitable was about to happen.
"It came out in clumps," she said, adding chemotherapy has stopped but she’s still going through radiation treatment. "Now I can feel the effect of cancer. Now I started to look sick." Her dark hair has started to grow back, but To-Lee usually covers her head with scarves or hats because she finds wigs too hot and heavy, especially in the summer. But one thing she has put off is her make-

ABOUT US
Information, funding needed for rail safety Rail carriers are working under a shroud of secrecy, putting Ontarians at risk every day. Information regarding what hazardous materials are shipped through our communities remains elusive. At any given moment, emergency responders and local governments have no idea what, exactly, is being transported through municipalities across the province. Yet they are the ones tasked with keeping the populace safe in the event of a disaster. The continued secrecy is putting the public at unnecessary risk and it is not a theoretical risk. The danger is very real. In 2015, 144 rail-related accidents occurred involving dangerous goods in Canada. The five-year-average is 140. One need only look to the disaster at Lac-Megantic to see how very real and devastating such disasters can be. When the unattended freight train derailed, it left 47 people dead and half of the community’s downtown destroyed. That train had previously passed through the densely populated GTA. The disaster prompted renewed calls from municipalities and the province for increased transparency on the shipment of dangerous goods. There have since been improvements to informationsharing, but has it gone far enough? Emergency responders in municipalities have access to historic data of what has come through their community. From that they can undertake disaster planning. The burden - and cost - of preparing for these potential disasters falls squarely on the shoulders of municipalities. Not only must our towns and cities prepare without knowing when, how often and what materials companies are transporting, they must also find a way to pay for managing the dangers these private rail carriers pose. For security reasons, real-time information is not available. And what information is shared with select municipal officials is not intended to be shared with the public. No one wants to tip off a potential terrorist about the exact location of specific chemicals. And the rail carriers don’t want to panic the public. Not only are emergency responders faced with a lack of information, the public remains largely in the dark about what dangerous goods are rolling through their communities. This culture of secrecy does not allow residents to make informed decisions or adequately prepare for possible disaster scenarios. More information is needed. The public needs to have general data regarding what is regularly transported through their backyards. Municipalities need more up-to-date information about what dangers their first responders might have to battle. And those first responders need adequate funding to defend against the worst case scenarios. Rail lines are an important part of this country’s economy, but the dangers they pose need to be better managed. It shouldn’t take another Lac-Megantic to bring about these much-needed reforms.

Thorncliffe Park, a place of unsolvable problems What’s happening in Thorncliffe Park is what’s happening in Toronto’s other highrise neighbourhoods, only more so. Its problems can’t be solved, only patched. The elevators grind, fail, sit waiting for repair. Bugs crawl. Kitchen cabinets fall apart. Thorncliffe’s aging: 43 apartment buildings in a horseshoe of land on the Don River. They were built long ago, like St. James Town, Flemingdon Park, and Scarborough’s Markham Road highrises, when Toronto apartment towers rose at the rate condos are popping up today. Thorncliffe’s overcrowded: grandparents and cousins are shoehorned in. Families rent rooms in other people’s apartments. Designed for 12,000 residents, the neighbourhood has 30,000, possibly
MIKE ADLER Edges of Toronto 45,000. Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne, the area’s MPP, pronounced the overcrowding unsolvable, except through "community conversation," last week when Thorncliffe tenants and landlords met. "We don’t even know exactly how many people are in these communities," she said. So much of Toronto lives like this, and will continue because, while the gap be-

tween renters and home ownership widens, few apartment towers are built. Daryl Chong of the Greater Toronto Apartment Association told Thorncliffe tenants most of them are in Thorncliffe "because we haven’t built any new (apartment) buildings in 40 years." "If you had more choice, you would vote with your feet." Apartments pay three times the property taxes houses do, Chong and political representatives added, so people in the city’s poorest areas are subsidizing Rosedale. "One of the reasons it’s a long road (to changing that) is that homeowners vote," said Jon Burnside, Thorncliffe’s councillor. Landlords want property tax breaks, or big cuts in development charges before they build apartments.
Tenants who live in Thorncliffe, or anywhere there are roaches or the hot water cuts out when people are showering, can mostly look forward to more of the same. But they’re tired of landlords being awarded rent hikes above inflation while renters get no raises at work, work orders that see months go by without results, and a tenant board seemingly weighted toward landlords. If they’re lucky, they’ll get tougher city enforcement – thanks to a new landlord bylaw – and rebuilt elevators that beep angrily when overcrowded, until enough people step off. Edges of Toronto is a column about how people see life in Toronto differently, depending on where they live. Reach Mike Adler at madler@insidetoronto.com

Science centre exhibit celebrates Canada 150 Canadians invented the hockey mask, Blackberry The Ontario Science Centre launched three new visitor experience areas Wednesday, Jan. 25 to coincide with the country’s 150th birthday. Offered throughout the year, Canada 150: Discovery Way, The Energy Show, and Legacy offer visitors to the science centre at 770 Don Mills Rd. a glimpse into the role Canadians played in science and innovation. Discovery Way showcases Canadian innovations that changed medicine, engineering, technology, and sports through 22 artifacts, including the hockey mask, the Coyle egg carton, the G-suit, flight recorder, the original Jolly
Jumper, Blackberry pager, pablum, and peanut paste - known today as peanut butter. A live theatrical presentation makes up The Energy Show, which delves into the principles and concepts of energy through flaming bubbles and a seven-foot tall Tesla coil. Visitors can learn about renewable energy and non-renewable sources of energy such as solar, wind, and fossil fuels. In Legacy, art and science melds together. Visitors will discover how science influences art through a life-sized, anatomically correct orca skeleton created by Canadian artist Ken Hall, who carved the piece entirely from reclaimed cedar. For dates and times of The Energy Show, or for information, visit www.ontariosciencecentre.ca

TRANSIT
Downsview Park Station readying completion Station is one of first to operate Automatic Train Control, Presto and Wi-Fi RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com The TTC opened its doors to under-construction Downsview Park Station to give the media a peek at the project’s progress. Not to be confused with Downsview to the south which will be renamed to Sheppard West, Downsview Park is one of six stations under construction as part of the Toronto York Spadina Subway Extension (TYSSE). The 8.6-kilometre extension north to Vaughan is the first TTC rapid transit line to connect the 905. After multiple delays, the line is readying to open at the end of the year, and when it does promises to represent the evolution of TTC service, said CEO Andy Byford. "People will look at
(TYSSE) as just a subway extension," said Byford during the media tour at the station located inside of Downsview Park on Monday. "To me it’s way more than that because this will be a Presto, Wi-Fi, Automatic Train Control (ATC) equipped subway. All of those projects have to come together at the same time, which is an incredibly complex piece of coordination." According to Byford, TYSSE is more than 90 per cent complete, and Downsview Park is almost ready to begin safety testing once the power goes on at the station, scheduled for the first of April. Testing will include not just ATC which will allow for the operation of subway trains remotely via computers and not a human - but all station components including ventilation, communication systems, backup power and train radios. Like the other stations on the extension - Finch West, York University, Pioneer Village, Highway 407 and Vaughan Metropolitan Centre - Downsview

Members of the media and TTC staff tour the construction site for Downsview Park Station on Monday, Jan. 23. The station is part of the Toronto York Spadina Subway Extension (TYSSE) scheduled to open in late 2017. Park is cavernous compared to existing stations, boasting plenty of natural light plus a quirky artistic finish depicting a spirallike motif appearing on walls and ceilings, which if
nected by track housing not just the TTC’s operations, but that of GO Transit. As TTC spokesperson Joanna Kervin explained, the TTC is building not only the subway, but a new
seen from a "sweet spot" comes together as a continuous image. The design scheme leads all the way down to track-level. The station is actually two separate sides con-
GO station, plus track, which will operate along the regional transit agency’s Barrie Line connection. "Essentially we are in fact building the station for them, and they are providing funding for that," said Kervin, the TTC’s director of third-party planning for TYSSE. "It just so happened we were going to initially have the subway station separate . but it just made sense we would build (the GO station) into our single contract, and what we’ve added is construction of the train platform." In addition to a paid area which will be accessible via Presto, although the TTC doesn’t plan to phase out subway tokens and tickets until 2018, the station will also act as a public throughway for local residents passing through, but not intending to use transit. Byford said negotiations were ongoing between the TTC, Metrolinx and York Region about how to allow riders to transfer seamlessly between services.

Is it ever OK to punch a Nazi? If you’ve been spending any time on social media over the past week - or watched the news out of Washington over the last weekend - you’ll be familiar with this question. It arose from an incident caught on video by an Australian news crew, as they interviewed so-called "altright" (definitively white supremacist) leader Richard B. Spencer, considered by many who know a bit about Nazis to be, well, a Nazi. Spencer was just getting finished explaining how he wasn’t a Nazi and what his lapel pin really meant, when a black-clad, masked man leapt into the frame and clocked him in the side of the head. The culprit ran off, and so did Spencer, who appeared uninjured as he hightailed it into the crowd. Of course it went viral.
DAVID NICKLE The City And it split the world, at least online, on that question: Is it OK to punch a Nazi? Well it’s certainly not legal - there or anywhere - to punch a Nazi. And yet ... It’s not to say good has never come of it. We in Toronto have firsthand experience with this. In August of 1933, quite a lot of Nazi-punching went on in the Christie Pits. It was between Canadian Nazi sympathizers from Toronto’s east end and, initially at least, a Jewish baseball
Hearing Aid Trade-In Event
team from the Harbord playground, who were playing the St. Peter’s team, at what was then known as Willovale Park. The young Nazi sympathizers unveiled a white sheet, with a large black swastika - the symbol of the new, hate-filled government in Germany. There was a fight. A big one. And vicious too. You could say that the Nazis provoked it, and the Harbord playground team were provoked. Local allies from the surrounding communities, immigrants themselves, joined it. The police let it play out. And so it did. For six hours. No one was killed, but plenty were hurt. When it was over, City Hall banned the swastika. Not long after that, we went to war.

The myth of free parking There’s no such thing as a free lunch, and there’s no such thing as free parking. But that doesn’t stop transit agencies offering swathes of public land for commuters to park their wheels as they kiss n’ ride. It certainly doesn’t stop politicians grandstanding about the need to preserve all that land for the enjoyment of a privileged few - many of whom do not even live or pay taxes in this city Fortunately with city property values surging past the stratosphere, it appears even the awesome influence of motorists is made null when dollars are on the line. BUILD Toronto, the city’s real estate arm responsible for shedding costly and surplus lands, recently sold a commuter lot at Wilson TTC Station leading to outrage, and of course that familiar outcry about a non-existent war on their four-wheel lifestyle. As city planners and watchers will tell you, there
RAHUL GUPTA TO in Transit is a cost to free parking, even if it isn’t directly borne out by the individual. Urbanist Sean Marshall noted it cost Metrolinx over $39,000 per space to build a 1,200 space lot in Pickering back in 2014. Parking lots take up so much of GO station space the Crown agency increasingly constructs multi-level pads to reduce the overall footprint. Metrolinx insists it needs to provide parking at no cost in order to entice motorists, even fleetingly, to consider public transit. But think of what Metrolinx could do with all that space
for local communities, how it could enliven drab streetscapes and strengthen transit options if it got rid of even some parking. How much money could the agency raise for its Big Move if it could at least charge for parking, or stand to benefit from land sales of such lots resulting in new prime real estate geared to transit? In Toronto, the idea a public transit agency must subsidize private auto use persists among our elected officials. That’s disappointing considering the TTC, which relies on a subsidy to operate without a loss, doesn’t even benefit from operating the lots. So long as the myth of free parking endures, it’s hard to see this changing any time soon. Rahul Gupta is Metroland Media Toronto’s transportation and infrastructure reporter.

Both pets are looking for love - hopefully in all the right places. Piper is the perfect companion. She is sweet, goodnatured, independent, friendly, and loves to be in your company. She is an approximately four-year-old spayed female feline who is in good health and has perfect litter-box etiquette. She has a gorgeous, soft coat of grey-and-white fur with large golden eyes that are definitely the window into her gentle soul. Pretty Piper is a very social gal who enjoys being around people and delights in receiving lots of pats. She is an easygoing cat who is content to curl up on a comfy chair for a little cat nap or gaze out the window and watch the activities outside. Piper would like to enjoy all your attention, so she is best-suited for a single-pet
