Painting of HANGING AROUND AT THE ZAREINU MOVEATHON rainbow tunnel could fetch $16M ®

An oil painting of one of North York’s iconic landmarks could sell for as much as $16 million at auction this month. Scottish artist Peter Doig’s Country-Rock (wing-mirror) of the rainbow tunnel seen from the Don Valley Parkway south of Lawrence Avenue will be sold by British auction house Sotheby’s June 30. The painting shows the rainbow tunnel from the highway behind a guardrail with greenery and homes in the background. Sotheby’s called it “one of the most important works by the artist ever to appear on the market.” The rainbow tunnel, in Moccasin Trail Park, was painted 40 years ago by Norwegian mural artist Berg Johnson in memory of a friend. It was most recently refurbished last summer as part of a joint effort between the city and Mural Routes, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving communities through public wall art.

Mark McLean is returning to his hometown for three performances for this year’s TD Toronto Jazz Festival. Born and raised in North York, the drummer, composer and

lyricist will perform songs off his two albums Thursday, June 19 to Saturday, June 21 at Jazz Bistro, 251 Victoria St. All performances will start at 8 p.m. Now in its 28th year, the festival will run June 19 to 28, showcasing more than 350 performances and some 1,500 musicians at 40 locations throughout the city. A jazz performance graduate from the University of Toronto, McLean has called New York City home for more than a decade

and has worked with a number of well-known entertainers either in the studio or on tour, including Diana Krall, Quincy Jones, Backstreet Boys, Gladys Knight and Dionne Warwick. He also joined George Michael for his European tour in 2011-’12 and worked in the studio on a Billy Joel track titled ‘All My Life’. “Whenever you get a chance to play for your hometown, the memories come back,” he said in a phone interview from New York City. “Toronto is really special. I

hope everyone comes out.” McLean, who used to deliver The Mirror as a kid, will play songs off his recently released album Feel Alright and 2010’s Playground during his festival appearances. Performers Kellylee Evans, his brother Lester McLean and Wade O. Brown will each join McLean on stage for one night. McLean’s performances will be a mix of old-school soul, blues/funk, traditional jazz, >>>FORMER, page 23

Viva Mexico Mariachi to perform at the TD Toronto Jazz Festival June 23 show set for Shops at Don Mills FANNIE SUNSHINE fsunshine@insidetoronto.com

Best Buddies member and Don Mills Collegiate student Olivera Mihajlovic, right, introduces her Best Buddies peer Kristina Kisin, second from left, to her younger sister Milana and mother Aleksandra during the program’s year-end party Friday at the school.

Friendships forged with Best Buddies program Don Mills C.I. celebrates year of bonding with dinner/dance FANNIE SUNSHINE fsunshine@insidetoronto.com Christine Neves has noticed a change in her son, Brandon, since he became part of the Best Buddies club at Don Mills Collegiate Institute four years ago. Though he’d always been very social, the club has boosted his confidence and given the young man with Down syndrome a sense of belonging. Brandon, 19, is one of 21 students with intellectual and developmental disabilities and physical handicaps at the Lawrence Avenue and The Donway East school matched up with 55 peer buddies who meet weekly during lunch to play board games, talk, read or play sports. They also go on monthly

outings like swimming, bowling, or to the movies. Founded by Anthony Paul Kennedy Shriver, nephew of former U.S. president John F. Kennedy, Best Buddies International was formed in 1989, followed by Best Buddies Canada in 1993. Best Buddies Canada operates in schools across the country and many in Toronto, including Don Mills C.I. On Fr iday, ever yone involved in the school’s club attended a Best Buddies dinner/dance at Don Mills so “buddies” could introduce their peer buddies to their families. “I was so excited just to know such a wonderful program existed,” Neves said. “Brandon has developed so many friendships at school. We’ll walk down the hall and

people will say ‘Hi Brandon, hi Brandon.’ He really looks forward to the activities and it makes him feel less isolated.” The Best Buddies club was started six years ago at the school by special education teacher Marie Sullivan, who knew how isolated her students could feel. “It gives them better quality of life,” she said. “The peer buddies love it because they feel they are making a difference in someone’s life. It’s a win-win for both.” Jonathan Edwards liked what he heard when Sullivan explained the club to students at the beginning of the year. “I thought it was a really great program,” said the Grade 9 peer buddy. “They are really nice kids and real people and I thought they deserved friends. It opened up a new world for me and made me a lot more compassionate.”

The Don Mills Road and Lawrence Avenue area will be filled with the sounds of Mexican folk music Monday, June 23 when Viva Mexico Mariachi performs as part of the TD Toronto Jazz Festival. The band will play at Shops at Don Mills, 1090 Don Mills Rd., at 5 p.m. The performance will be free. Pedro Govea, the band’s general manager and guitarron (mariachi bass guitar) player, said a seven-piece band ensemble will take to the stage for the festival. “We have found that our music breaks the language barrier, people approach and tell us that they do not need to understand lyrics to feel the power and energy of our themes,” said Govea, who has called North York home for 14 years, adding Viva Mexico Mariachi plays yearly at the Hispanic Fiesta Festival at Mel Lastman Square.

Viva Mexico Mariachi will perform as part of the TD Toronto Jazz Festival.

Composed of musicians ranging from Mexican, Peruvian, Canadian, Russian, American, Caribbean and French-Canadian backgrounds, the band has opened concerts and accompanied live Latin Grammy Award winners, including Ana Barbara, Alicia Villarreal, Cafe Tacuba, and Grammy winner Jose Feliciano. They have also performed at a number of festivals, such as Salsa on St. Clair, Fiesta London Festival, CHIN and the XIII International Ma r i a c h i Fe s t i va l i n Guadalajara, Mexico. “ We a p p r e c i a t e T D

Toronto Jazz Festival organizers for the opportunity to be part of this important festival,” Govea said. “We invite readers to accompany us, we are sure (the) audience will enjoy a fine and lively performance.” In t h e a l m o s t t h re e decades since the TD Toronto Jazz Festival’s beginning, it has presented more than 29,000 artists, 85 per cent of whom are Canadian, and held more than 3,000 free public events.

ffordable housing in Toronto Centre. Improving opportunities for youth in Etobicoke North. Hospital mergers in Scarborough-Guildwood. Helping immigrants transition smoothly in Toronto. Accessibility in Parkdale-High Park. Should the city walk away from the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB)? These were just a few of the issues we put to provincial candidates leading up to tonight’s provincial election. So many more issues were raised throughout the campaign with those hoping to fill seats in the Ontario legislature – during debates, at your front door, or on the streets. Regardless of how you our view voted – or how you’re intending to vote – remaining Continue to politically engaged after the push for issues results are tallied is far more important. of importance We, the electorate, more often than not engage only between during an election campaign elections – when it’s exciting to do so. Rarely do we continue that engagement between elections. This reality is unfortunate. Change is made every day, when residents across the city (and the province) continue to push what is important to them. Granted, not everything makes it to the top of a growing list of issues, but not demanding better of our politicians certainly doesn’t change a thing. Health care, education, jobs, the economy – these are big ticket items that impact the entire province, but it’s the local issues like decisions at the OMB that impact a community and really makes a difference in the everyday lives of Torontonians. After the dust settles, and another provincial government is elected, it is time for residents to continue to push on those important issues. Send letters to your newly elected or re-minted MPP, attend town halls, join a residents’ association, bring your neighbours together to fight for something important. Do something. That way, when it’s time to head to the polls once again, you know that you’ve at least tried to make a difference.

The World Cup keeps getting better with age

’m really looking forward to the 2014 FIFA World Cup that starts today. I love what this prestigious tournament does for the city and with it being held in Brazil, a time zone close to ours, Toronto’s going to be hopping throughout. TVs in sports bars, pubs, restaurants and malls will be blaring all the games. Company water coolers will be abuzz with office pool chatter. Everywhere you go, people will be decked out in the jerseys and the colours of their favourite teams checking out the action on mobile phones, laptops and tablets. You’ll see flags of all 32 participating countries visible on front porches, balconies, cars and trucks all over town; the honking of horns after every victory, which always sounds melodic, will last well into the night. The preeminent showcase of the planet’s most popular sport just keeps getting bigger and better with

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY every quadrennial. It’s the only major sport I never played as a kid. It flew under the radar around here back then, so I’m light years away from understanding all the nuances and subtleties of the so-called beautiful game. But I’ll get there eventually. In the meantime, I can tell you one thing about it that impresses me: the powers that be aren’t constantly messing with the game. For other major sports, navel-gazing and tinkering have become a cottage industry. Not so in “futebol”. The template seems to be: it is what it is. And lo and behold it works. Like a fine wine, what it is just keeps gets better with age. They don’t sit down and rewrite the rules every year. Fans aren’t subjected to the incessant blabber about

making the nets smaller or changing the size of the goalie’s gloves. There’s no whining about enlarging the pitch or removing lines. Nobody jabbers about speeding up the play or making the matches shorter. There also aren’t any heated discussions about coming up with something other than penalty kicks to decide draws after extra time. Nor are there focus groups on the viability of yellow cards and red cards connecting with the ever-changing masses. Like everything else, those colours are here to stay. Football won’t be switching to teal cards to attract the kiddies any time soon. What’s more they’ll never stop a match for five or 10 minutes while the referee phones some anonymous suits in a booth upstairs or in a head office thousands of miles away who are watching a replay entrusted with deciding whether a striker’s cowlick was off-side

before he headed in the last goooooal. What you see is what you get with football. It’s what you’ve always gotten and it’s what you’re always going to get. Football sticks to the original blueprint. The folks in charge have decreed that the beautiful game is entertainment enough. Either you get it or you don’t. And with a viewing audience expected to substantially topple the impressive numbers of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa – 3.2 billion in some 215 countries – and generate a staggering $4 billion or so in revenue, it’s pretty obvious the majority of the world not only get it, but they can’t get enough of it. Ah, but enough talk. Let’s get the show on the road. Honk, honk, honk. Jamie Wayne is a lifelong columnist, who takes writing very seriously. The topics? Not so much.

It’s a little overwhelming. It’s entirely exciting to see we’ve come this far. The first year, we wondered if we would be around for five years. – Joe Cascone, founder of Civic LightOpera Comany in 1979, at the age of 14

North York theatre company’s milestones take centre stage Civic Light-Opera Company marks 35 years of theatrical passion LISA QUEEN lqueen@insidetoronto.com

rtistic director Joe Cascone can hardly believe the theatre company he launched as a 14-year-old is celebrating three milestones more than 30 years later. The Civic Light-Opera Co. is marking its 35th anniversary, its 100th production and its 1,000th performance. “It’s a little overwhelming. It’s entirely exciting to see we’ve come this far,” said the Leslieville resident and retired East York and Bloor West Village teacher. “The first year, we wondered if we would be around for five years.” Past and present members will recognize the company’s achievements the night of June 13 at North York’s Zion Cultural Centre following the performance of The Glorious Ones, which runs until June 15. The Glorious Ones is the 100th show the company has staged and June 13 marks the group’s 1,000th performance. A musical romp that follows the start of a theatre troupe as well as the behind-the-scenes lives of its members, The Glorious Ones seems the perfect show to be staging as Civic Light-Opera celebrates its milestones, said Cascone, noting the play’s modern tone and style despite being set in 16th century Italy. “It’s fun and funny and touching as well,” he said,

Joe Cascone and Joanne Kennedy, co-stars in the Civic LightOpera Company’s production of Kiss Me Kate a few years ago. They are both starring in the current staging of The Glorious Ones.

as he reflected on the history of the company and the state of the theatre world in general. As daunting as it may seem, Cascone started the company at the age of 14 in 1979, something his surprised parents only found out when they returned from vacation. “Surprised is a good word for it. I don’t know that they actually got it,” he laughed. “I think there were times they hoped I would grow out of it. It really did consume me for all those years.” His parents not only came to accept their son’s passion for the theatre, they attend shows and have even performed in a couple of productions. It was likely the only possible reaction for parents of a child bitten hard by the theatre bug. “I had always been passionate about performing, even before I was exposed

to it,” Cascone said. “I got into a couple of different children’s theatre companies and I knew this was what I wanted to do with my life. In my teens, it was at the expense of every other thing, like academics and part-time jobs.” The native of Scarborough initially named the company Agincourt Music Theatre, a name that survived the troupe’s first decade until 1989. Cascone is quick to credit the success of the company to actors, members of the backstage crew and administrative staff, many of whom have been with the company for 20 years or more. Over the years, Civic Light-Opera has staged a wide variety of productions, including favourites such as My Fair Lady, Show Boat, The Sound of Music, The King and I and Oliver! The company was also

proud to take on more obscure shows like Allegro, On A Clear Day You Can See Forever, As Thousands Cheer, Dear World, The Rink and Silk Stockings. It was the first Canadian company to present Annie, La Cage Aux Folles and Titanic and staged the world-premiere original adaptation of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The quality of productions over the years is reflected in the current The Glorious Ones by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, the composers of Ragtime and Seussical, who Cascone calls “the closest thing we have in the Broadway theatre today to the great composers of the 20th century like Rodgers & Hammerstein, Irving Berlin, Jerry Herman.” Calling collaborating for a year in 2010 on the company’s production of Rex with Sheldon Harnick, the lyricist of Fiddler on the Roof, as one of the highlights of his career, Cascone counts Titanic and As Thousands Cheer among his favourite productions. On the other hand, its production of Evita in 1987, marked by dissension in the ranks among members of the company, still rankles Cascone, although he credits it as a learning experience. Meanwhile, Cascone’s commitment to the theatre has extended beyond Civic Light-Opera. A retired teacher who taught at East York’s Crescent Town Elementary

Joe Cascone developed a passion for theatre at an early age.

School and Presteign Heights Elementary School and Bloor West Village’s Dovercourt Public School, Cascone took a lead role in promoting theatre arts at the schools and took pride mentoring young people who tapped into a love of the theatre. Lamenting the trend of major theatres these days to stage either old chestnuts year in and year out or flashy rock operas and family productions, complete with expensive ticket prices, Cascone praised local theatre companies as the place audiences can find affordable theatrical gems. “Guys and Dolls or South Pacific are great shows, but enough already,” he said. “Musicals are changing, for better or worse. They are being dumbed down to the lowest common denominator.” Praising Civic LightOpera for its willingness to take risks, Cascone believes people need to go to the theatre more often. “Theatre is a human need. People think it’s an extravagance but it’s a human need to connect with human arts,” he said. “People go to the theatre once or twice a year when they should go once a week.” Civic Light-Opera is staging The Glorious Ones and upcoming productions at least for the foreseeable future at the Zion Cultural

Centre at 1650 Finch Ave., east of Don Mills Road, following the closure of its familiar venue Fairview Theatre due to a flood in the spring. Cascone calls Zion an intimate theatre offering a wonderful and acoustically stunning experience. He is looking forward to another 35 years in theatre but would bow out with pride if The Glorious Ones ended up being his “swan song.”

on stage ‘The Glorious Ones’ is the 100th show put on by Civic Light-Opera company. The play is a musical romp that follows the start of a theatre troupe as well as the behind-the-scenes lives of its members Tomorrow’s performance is the 1,000th for the troupe. Following this show, members of the company, both past and present, will celebrate the company’s achievements. ‘The Glorious Ones’ is on stage at the Zion Church Cultural Centre in North York at 1650 Finch Ave. E., just east of Don Mills Road.

Turn former military housing site into park, Perruzza urges Proposal to be debated at community council June 17 LISA QUEEN lqueen@insidetoronto.com Rather than bulldoze former military housing at Downsview Park and continue to keep the area fenced off to the public, York West Councillor Anthony Perruzza wants to recognize any heritage aspects of the homes and have the site turned into a park as early as this summer. “If we open it (a park) as soon as possible, that would be great,” Perruzza told The Mirror. “So, if you want to walk your dog or have a picnic, you come. There are beautiful trees.” The entire area, northeast of Sheppard Avenue and Keele Street, wouldn’t remain as a park forever because development is eventually coming to the north part of the site known as the William Baker neighbourhood, Perruzza acknowledged. At the same time, the secondary plan for the location will protect a 121,400-squaremetre (30-acre) woodlot.

What happens to the site has come into the public eye because Canada Lands, appointed by the federal government to manage Downsview Park, is seeking a demolition permit for 81 former military personnel homes on John Drury Drive and Robert Woodhead Crescent. The issue is scheduled to be debated at the June 17 meeting of North York Community Council. Some of the homes, built primarily in the 1950s, but some as late as 1980, have been vacant for years, others occupied as recently as a few years ago. They were vacated in response to the closing of Canadian Forces Base Downsview in 1996. The area has been fenced off for the last couple of years. “I want to look at these homes because, from my perspective, they have some heritage qualities,” Perruzza said. The issue has already come before North York Community Council twice this spring, but was deferred each time to study Perruzza’s request. Manon Lapensée, Canada Lands’ director of corporate communications, said Canada Lands is working to accommodate the city’s inquiry.

“The city has asked, as part of the demolition permitting process, that Canada Lands provide a post-demolition site condition plan ensuring that once the work is complete, the site will be safe and the woodlot preserved. We are currently finalizing this plan,” she said in an email. “The site will remain vacant until our development plans for this neighbourhood are prepared.” Without development plans, the city is under no obligation to issue a demolition permit and rarely does in those circumstances, Perruzza said. A report prepared last month by Taylor Hazell Architects for Canada Lands concludes the homes are standard military housing. “The buildings at William Baker Park complex are typical of residences constructed by the military during the Cold War era to house married personnel,” it said. “During the early 1950s, the military constructed over 6,000 residential units like the ones at William Baker Park at military bases across the country. The housing does not represent a rare form of military housing.”

Mill Street and Granite breweries pairing up food and beer ALI RAZA bsrm@insidetoronto.com

nstead of a glass of wine with your meal, grab a pint of beer! With the rise in popularity of craft beer, it’s not hard to find places across the city that serve up tasty food with a thirst-quenching pint – and some even cook with beer, like Mill St. Brewpub in the Distillery District, and the granddaddy of Toronto brewpubs, Granite Brewery. Jason A. Robins, head chef at Mill St., offers his insight on why he thinks beer and food have joined in a partnership. “With the current menu structure I think about 75 to 80 per cent of our items have beer in them,” Robins said. “It’s used in the cooking process. With our new menu changeover, it will bolster up to 90 per cent.” Alongside cooking with the brew, many pubs also offer a paired pint with the meal. Robins said Canada lacks a true food culture. Our diverse demographics have generated a varied cuisine; Canadian food can be anything from sushi to schnitzel. However, “there is one thing we hold above or at the same level as hockey as Canadians, and that’s beer,” Robins said. “So you take beer and take the one thing we’re lacking right now, food culture. You take the two of them and smash them together and you hope that you can build something.” “That’s the endeavor we’re trying to establish here at the Beer Hall, this idea of building a beer and food culture. We call it ‘tap to table,’” he added.

“

Pairing beers and food is no different than pairing wine and food...we’;ve been doing it for eons. – Jason A. Robins

Pairing beer and food is not as common as wine and food. Several wines are offered at high-end restaurants with menu items and they’re served in specific glassware. Robins says the same care and precision can be applied for beer. “Pairing beers and food is no different than pairing wine with food,” he said. “We’ve been doing it for eons. Is it a sales tactic versus a cultural phenomenon? Well, we do it because it works really well with what we do here.” Ron Keefe, owner of Granite Brewery and Restaurant at Eglinton Avenue and Mount Pleasant Road, said people’s palettes are different; what works for one doesn’t necessarily work for others. “We definitely make recommendations if people are looking to pair their meal with a nice beer, like the Curried Shrimp, which has the IPA in the curry sauce, so it’ll definitely work with our IPA,” said Keefe. “That said, we’re not pushy. People have their

favourite beers and their favourite meals – however they want to enjoy the two is up to them.” Robins said it even comes down to how the beer is served: elements like glassware, the thickness of the head, the aroma of the beer, all work together to enhance the meal. Beer can also be used to create new ingredients. In the Mill St. kitchen, Robins experiments with pickles and cheese. It’s not just about the beer. Food is an equally important aspect of the experience. “The great thing about the Beer Hall is you don’t have to like beer to eat here,” said Robins. “And if you never drink beer, you’ll learn something about it. If you come in open-minded and allow yourself to try things then you will go away stunned at what you learned.” Both Mill St. and Granite will be taking part in the Session Toronto Craft Beer Festival – part of Ontario Craft Beer Week – at YongeDundas Square, June 13 and 14. The event is sponsored by Metroland Media Toronto, which publishes this paper. For more on Session visit, www.sessiontoronto.com

Long municipal campaign good for voters Nearly six months into Toronto’s marathon mayoral race, leading candidate Olivia Chow has presented a novel idea: cut six months off the race, and let things get rolling on Canada Day. It’s nothing that we haven’t heard before. Toronto elects a mayor like nobody else, with a campaign period starting Jan. 2 and continuing until late October. If there’s high interest in the position that year voters can be subjected to news clips, debates, op-ed pieces and now clever YouTube videos with a foot in all four seasons. It’s expensive and daunting and sometimes a little boring. Well, maybe not that last. But Chow suggests it is all a bit much, that there is nothing that can be said in 10 months that can’t be said in four. Chow does have a point. But it’s hard to say that a tiresome and lengthy debate about the future of our city is harmful. The fact is that while the campaign period runs a year, in times of complacency – the elections before the second terms of former mayors Mel

david nickle the city Lastman and David Miller come to mind – the campaigns don’t run that long at all. There was certainly some hand-wringing in 2006, when Miller gamely defended his mayoralty against city councillor Jane Pitfield and lawyer Stephen LeDrew, but that race didn’t get going until the summer. And in 2000, Lastman barely bothered to run a campaign, as only the late Tooker Gomberg ran against him. But in years where the choice is less clear, our long campaign period offers advantages to voters that might be easy to overlook. First, it allows us to meet the candidates, and the candidates to meet us. A good mayoral candidate will start making the rounds of community groups early and often, both for the purpose of fundraising and for the purpose of building a platform. When not abused, this is exceedingly healthy – it keeps

municipal government real, in a way that other more distant governments often aren’t. It also allows candidates who may not have the highest profiles a chance to build those, outside the extraordinary advantages of celebrity and wealth only a few can bring to the table. Chow, for instance, entered the race with a well-established profile that included a well-timed book tour for her autobiography. John Tory entered the race a popular talk radio host with a long history in Toronto and Ontario politics. Rob Ford’s an incumbent from a wealthy family. So it’s good to be a Chow or a Tory or even a Ford in a four-month campaign: not so much a Karen Stintz or a David Soknacki, who are still struggling to build their profiles. And unless we want to limit our mayoral choices to the rich and famous, it’s not so good to be us either. This is one issue that might be best to let lie.

Elia Middle School marks 50th anniversary School year started tragically with death of former student Violet Jia Liang FANNIE SUNSHINE fsunshine@insidetoronto.com

cloud over our building for a good while.” Though she had graduated from Elia, Violet frequently went back to help teachers with sorting papers and other tasks, Yafeu said, adding the young girl always appeared happy. The tragedy was talked about during a school assembly welcoming Elia’s 440 students in grades 6 to 8 back after summer break. Shortly afterwards, the student council launched a purple ribbon campaign for Violet, with proceeds going to her family. Elia students joined C.W. Jefferys students for a candlelight vigil, and received a blessing from members of the Buddhist community. A crossing guard was later stationed at the intersection where Violet was killed. While the school year

The first day of school started out tragically on Sept. 3 when 14-year-old Violet Jia Liang was struck and killed by a dump truck while walking to C.W. Jefferys Collegiate Institute. Kwabena Yafeu, principal of Elia Middle School, down the street from C.W. Jefferys, was giving an interview to CBC Metro Morning regarding the recent rash of shootings over the summer in the Jane Street and Finch Avenue area, home to many students who attend the two schools, when he received word his former student had been killed right in front of the school at Sentinel Road and Lamberton Boulevard. “It was devastating, not just for me, but for the entire staff,” he said. “There was a

started out on a tragic note, Yafeu hoped it will end on a bright one with a community fair last Saturday to celebrate Elia Middle School’s 50th anniversary. Activities ranged from sports competitions to face painting, from free dance lessons to playing on bouncy castles. Food and refreshments were also available. Per for mers included alumni Jully Black and YTV’s Jordan Francis, Elia Steel Band, Elia Glee Club, Elia African Drum and Dance Ensemble, and C.W. Jefferys Drum Line. Violet was remembered during the official ceremony, Yafeu said. “The 50th anniversary is very special and it’s about the larger community, our neighbours,” he said last week. “We move on on a positive note.” The driver of the dump truck was charged with careless driving and failure to yield to a pedestrian.

North York entrepreneur crowdfunds with FuelLocal.com Metroland Media Group to promote community-based crowdfunding platform A local entrepreneur is doing his best to help other young people create their own summer businesses. Ryan Knight, owner of Detailing Knights car cleaning services, is helping others establish at least a summer business with the help of crowdfunding. Detailing Knights is a mobile, waterless car cleaning service. The company takes pride in hiring at-risk youth and working with people with disabilities to show their potential to sustain employment. He’s helping detailer Daniel Campbell become a franchisee through the power of crowdfunding, a new funding model sustained by community participation. To access Campbell’s crowdfunding page go to FuelLocal.com and type Help

Daniel Fund His Own Business in the ‘find campaigns’ search box. Knight likes the crowdfunding model because it brings new awareness to a business model as well as allows people to contribute to a young person’s dream. Campbell had been working odd jobs while trying to maintain a family with a wife and daughter, living in the Jane and Finch neighbourhood with no support from his parents and refusing to accept government assistance. After starting to work with the Detailing Knights, he was able to stabilize employment and since participating in the pilot he was able to move out of Jane and Finch with his family and is renting a house near Keele and Lawrence. He plans to be one of Detailing Knight’s founding

student franchisees and will be running the Toronto franchise zone. He is raising funds to help with the start-up costs for his business. Campbell’s goal is to raise $2,500. Presently, Knight has identified four young people in the Greater Toronto Area he would like to see succeed with a franchise. Knight, a former Toronto Region Board of Trade emerging business award winner, teaches entrepreneurship at Sheridan College, and is a City of Brampton entrepreneur in residence, directing young business people on how to take their initial idea forward. “I’d love to be their first point of contact, starting with their first idea for a business.” FuelLocal is a new community-first crowdfunding platform, part of the Metroland Media Group family of community offerings.

Jane-Finch students give insights to York U. researchers LISA QUEEN lqueen@insidetoronto.com York University’s annual symposium, which gives graduate students a chance to present their research, has been going on for several years. But this year, the event took a step out of the halls of academia into the Jane and Finch community. For the first time, high school students from C.W. Jefferys Collegiate Institute and Westview Centennial Secondary School participated in the process. In May, graduate students conducted focus groups with the secondary students at their schools and last week, the Jefferys and Westview students visited the university to listen to the grad students present research and to take part in discussions about issues important to them. With the theme “A healthy community for Toronto’s youth: how researchers and youth can work

together to push the envelope to affect change,” the event covered six domains: w Relationships, including dating violence, bullying and family dynamics; w Mental health and addictions, including depression, anxiety and substance abuse; w Education, career and future, including school achievement and challenges to reaching goals; w Physical health, including sports and recreation, physical development and body image; w Culture, values and beliefs, including diversity, religion and identity; w Geography and physical environment, including the importance of neighbourhoods and the right for everyone to help shape their surroundings. In addition to the two high schools, the symposium was hosted by the university’s LaMarsh Centre for Child and Youth Research in partnership with the City Institute, which brings

together York U. scholars and graduate students from diverse fields to study the complexities of urban issues. There were two goals behind the youth-engagement project, Bramilee Dhayanandhan, one of the event organizers, told The Mirror. “One, to really engage youth, particularly youth from what we consider to be high-priority neighbourhoods that are more underserved than other communities, to be stimulated and excited about research. But also know that we who conduct research with children and Be a part of the youth, that their discussion.

comment

C. W. Jefferys, Westview Centennial students take part in discussion

“But it was also for researchers, who tend to conduct research in academic silos, to be engaged with youth in a stimulating dialogue about relevant issues, how are they pertinent to youth in these communities, in the communities we investigate, and what the direct impact is and whether there is anything missing in the current dialogue that’s not being addressed and how we, as researchers, meet and respond to the needs of youth.” Jefferys students Peter Lee and Alexis Chung and Westview student Tina Nguyen all said the issue that resonated most with them was the discussion on culture, values and beliefs. In particular, they are concerned about misconceptions about the Jane-Finch community created by the media and others who don’t live there. The reality of their dynamic community with much to offer is often not reflected in image circulated about the neighbourhood, the students said. Tapping into that youth voice is important in a society that usually doesn’t validate young peo-

ple’s opinions about important issues, Dhayanandhan said. “Youth know a lot of information already and they are experts on their own lives. That was a constant surprise, just how much they already knew about these topics that are researchy and

The new streetcars, which will hold approximately double the passenger capacity of the existing fleet, will run less frequently on routes.

We can’t predict the weather but there are many things to do to prepare your home for it Despite a year of extreme weather, Canadians do not feel any more prepared to deal with its potential impacts, according to the seventh annual RBC Canadian Water Attitudes Study. In fact, only half (52 per cent) feel prepared to cope with the adverse effects of severe thunderstorms. About 38 per cent feel prepared for flooding and a mere 27 per cent feel prepared for hurricanes. “With extreme weather events on the rise, it’s likely that most Canadians will experience moderate to severe weather events in their area sometime this year,” says Paula Bandi, Senior Product Manager, Home, RBC Insurance. “Learning what actions to take can help Canadians protect themselves, their family and their home in the event of an emergency.” RBC Insurance® offers these important tips to help Canadian homeowners prepare for extreme weather events: 1. Inspect the roof annually, checking for missing, curled or damaged shingles. If any, speak with a professional roofing contractor. 2. Maintain eavestroughs and keep them clear of debris. 3. Seal any cracks in foundation walls and floors.

4. Install a back-flow valve or a backup generator for basement sewage drains or sump pumps. 5. Install downspout extensions, rain barrels and splash pads to ensure water is flowing away from your home. 6. Keep outdoor storm sewer grates clear of debris. 7. Keep trees and shrubs trimmed to avoid branches or trees falling onto your home or your neighbour’s home. 8. Have large trees that are growing directly over pipes checked every three years to ensure there are no cracks where roots can enter and grow. 9. Install impact-resistant windows and doors and, at least once a year, check that they’re secure and re-caulk as needed. 10. Put together an emergency kit of first aid items and supplies, and identify the safest area of your home for shelter. For more information, please visit www.rbcinsurance.com/preventiontips.

Former Mirror carrier to perform June 19 to 21 >>>from page 1 McLean’s performances will be a mix of old-school soul, blues/funk, traditional jazz, pop/rock and other genres thrown in for good measure, he said. Having put pen to paper over the last three or four years, McLean wanted Feel Alright to, well, feel different from Playground, which was all instrumental. “I wanted to make a statement lyrically, even if it’s not my voice on the record,” he said. McLean, who at 22 played with the late Canadian jazz icon Oscar Peterson, got his start musically at age eight after watching a young girl

play piano on television. Several years later, the Pleasant View Junior High School student had to choose an instrument for music class, and went with percussion. But there is more to drumming than simply banging sticks to make noise, and McLean said he doesn’t want to just be seen as a drummer; rather, he wants to be known as a musician whose instrument just happens to be drums. “People see the drummer as someone who keeps time and not really conscious of what’s happening,” he said. “I know a lot of great musicians who happen to be drummers. Most

drummers I love are very musical.” Along with his upcoming TD Toronto Jazz Festival shows, McLean is gearing up for the Markham Jazz Festival in August, and he is also the first call sub on Broadway show After Midnight. He has also been travelling with Montreal jazz/pop singer Nikki Yanofsky since February as her musical director. Tickets for McLean’s shows cost $30 and can be purchased by visiting www.ticketmaster.ca

The World Cup begins today in Brazil, and fans across Toronto are preparing to wave their flags as they cheer on their favourite teams. Other than being in Brazil for this year’s world championship of soccer, which runs through to July 13, Toronto is probably the best place in the world for fans to catch the action. And our newspapers and our special World Cup Toronto website at www.insidetoronto. com/worldcupTO are the best places for coverage on the tournament in our city. Here’s how it works: • Enter www.insidetoronto. com/worldcupto and you will see the flags of all 32 teams taking part. Click on the flag of your favourite country. • Now on your country’s site, you can see stories on the best places in the Greater Toronto Area to catch events linked to the team, stories on the teams, news stories and ultimately viewers’ guides about the World Cup in general. • There are recipes from all

32 countries for those interested in hosting a party, or just like the idea of trying different foods. Other stories will celebrate the many cultures who enjoy the World Cup. • We have a number of bloggers writing about the teams they are following. The World Cup starts today with a game between host Brazil and Croatia at 4 p.m. (EST) in Sao Paulo. There are 32 teams taking part in this year’s World Cup, broken up into eight groups of four. After playing each other in group play between June 12 and 26, the top two teams in each group will advance to the Round of 16 which begins June 28. Many Toronto neighbourhoods are known as gathering places for fans of certain countries to watch their teams’ games. In Toronto, these areas include Little Italy, Little Portugal, Koreatown, Corso Italia, and Greektown on the Danforth. See our story on the eight great places to watch a World Cup game in Toronto

at www.insidetoronto.com/ sports-story/4550511-torontos-eight-great-places-to-watchthe-world-cup This weekend will be a big one for Toronto fans, with seven games slated – many of them featuring teams with large fan bases in the city. Greece will be in action on noon Saturday against Colombia, which should mean thousands of fans along Danforth Avenue between Jones and Chester. Italy takes on England at 6 p.m. Saturday, which will mean an exciting night along College Street and St. Clair Avenue West. Other games this Saturday are Uruguay against Costa Rica at 3 p.m.; and Ivory Coast against Japan at 9 p.m. On Sunday, Switzerland takes on Ecuador at noon, France plays Honduras at 3 p.m. and Argentina meets Bosnia-Herzegovina at 6 p.m. For a complete World Cup schedule, visit us at www. insidetoronto.com/sportsstory/4567157-world-cup-2014complete-schedule/
