facebook Re: Neville-Lake family sues Muzzo family after drunk driving crash that killed three children and their grandfather This family is not doing anything different than anyone else who gets into car accidents. In Ontario, suing after an accident is extremely common... This family deserves compensation for their loss. I hope they get what is deserved. Also just to note, they are not suing him because he has money. This will be a lawsuit the insurance companies will pay, NOT him directly (depending on limits and how much of a settlement is agreed upon). When people sue after accidents it’s the insurance companies that pay! Lesley Russell

even more expensive or, worse, simply impossible. The trouble is that while the rail deck park is a good idea, it isn’t the only idea that has caught the eye of Tory’s council. The city is spending about as much as the rail deck park just a few kilometres to the east, replacing the Gardiner Expressway there with another elevated expressway, against the long-term advice of city planners. A few more kilometres to the east, council has committed to building a one-stop subway extension into Scarborough that costs as much again. And if the park is to go ahead, all of that – park included – will have to be paid for, almost certainly with money that comes from taxes and other revenues drawn from Toronto’s residents. Perhaps this will provide incentive for Toronto council to take its forthcoming debate on revenue tools more seriously. The mayor, and a majority of council, have made it clear that property taxes are not a candidate for enhancement – and they’ve also made it clear they don’t want to see the city sit still when it comes to improving and expanding its infrastructure. We should have parks. We should have subways and light rail. And council has decided that we should have a great elevated highway to aid motorists getting to and through the city’s downtown. But it all leads to a bill that someone will have to pay – and having solidified our aspirations as we have, whoever pays that bill is going to need deep pockets.

@InsideTOnews

Tensions are high as the Toronto Blue Jays head down the September stretch in a tight race for the playoffs.

oday, Mayor John Tory’s executive committee turns its eye to an ambitious and expensive plan – to build a “rail deck” park, which is to say a park built literally on a deck, spanning over the downtown rail corridor from Bathurst Street to Blue Jays Way. It is certainly ambitious – the park would cover 21 acres of rail lands that currently divide downtown Toronto from its waterfront communities, and replace them with a green swathe of parkland that would provide some recreational relief for one of the fastest-growing communities of tower dwellers in the country. And, oh Lord, it is going to be expensive: more than $1 billion to construct, according to very preliminary estimates, and more than that to secure the air rights from Metrolinx and CN over those tracks that will allow construction to take place at all. The executive committee won’t be signing off on that at its September meeting – before that it is just a couple of million dollars to refine the plans and move things along to the next stage. It’s hard to say that the idea of the park is not a good idea. Downtown Toronto is growing into a giant and potentially precarious residential community, made up of individuals and families squeezed into often very tiny quarters, and the real estate is getting swallowed up. Waiting another five years until the population reaches its breaking point, and then trying to acquire large-sized parkland from the remaining scraps, could well be

Language

MaTTeRS it’s not always black & white It used to be so simple, back in the days of Dick and Jane primary school readers. We learned grammar by memorizing basic rules. Dick was a ‘he’, Jane was a ‘she’, Spot was a dog and together they were … well, they. Turns out, it wasn’t so simple after all. Those clear-cut rules didn’t fit everyone and today those who don’t fit are speaking out, sparking what could be a linguistic revolution. The two-gender, binary world of male and female is shifting. We now have gender-neutral driver’s licences, gender-free washrooms, Toby’s Law enshrining transgender people’s rights in Ontario, and Bill C-16 working to do the same across Canada. And increasingly, people are adopting a cornucopia of alternative pronouns to the traditional he and she. “Gender is not black and white, but language is,” explained Chris Talbot, a female-to male transgender youth from Newmarket. Talbot, 18, prefers to be called he. He spoke with his guidance office in Grade 10 and soon his entire high school had switched references to he. Today, Talbot is studying at Georgian College in Orillia, making use of gender-free washrooms on campus, readily accepted by his male roommates in his school dorm. “People have been amazing about it, really. I’ve never had a bad experience, no bullying, no judging,” he said. “Maybe it’s because (trans issues) are all over social media, but it has been easier than I thought.” Switching pronouns isn’t smooth for everyone, especially for those who don’t identify as male or female. At 16, Beatrice Vandikas stumbled upon new pronouns being used by an online blogger: fae and faer. “I’d been using they and them not realizing there was anything else. I was elated. I thought, Oh my gosh, that’s perfect! That’s me!” Vandikas had been dating a trans man at the time, dealing with “nasty rumours” in a small-town community, and did not start using those pronouns right away. Now Vandikas is more comfortable using fae (for she/he) and faer (for his/hers/ him) – but also less upset when people don’t. Language is constantly evolving, Vandikas said. “It shouldn’t be that difficult, but changes like that are really hard for

PART 1 IN A METROLAND SPECIAL REPORT ON GENDER IDENTITY

Chris Talbot is a female-to-male transgender youth. He is studying at Georgian College in Orillia, making use of gender-free washrooms on campus.


■ If you are uncertain about the gender identity of another person and have to refer to them in the third person, use they or them. ■ It is ok to politely ask which gender pronoun a person prefers. ■ If someone explains they are a trans woman, do not use masculine pronouns. ■ If someone explains they are a trans man, do not use feminine pronouns. ■ If you work in an office that has intake forms, include X or Other (if you absolutely must collect information about gender – but consider that you may not actually need information about gender). ■ If you work in a recreation facility, ensure there are transpositive policies in place so that gender variant people can use the facilities without harassment. ■ Make sure there are gender-neutral bathroom options in your place of work.

How you can be gender sensitive

Remember baby Storm? The Toronto baby took the world by storm in 2011 when her parents decided not to reveal her gender to the world for her first years of life. Parents Kathy Witterick and David Stock wanted to let Storm decide what gender to identify with and, five years later, she is a she. The couple also made a conscious choice to keep their kids out of public school, to avoid, in part, the school system’s segregation of sexes. What happens when we erase gender divisions? Does going gender-free impact our behaviour? The research is unclear. Lynn Liben, a psychologist at Penn State, studied preschool classes to look at the effects of gender-coded language. She found when teachers lined children up by gender and emphasized gender in speech, (“Good morning, boys and girls”), students showed an increase in gender-stereotyped attitudes toward each other and their choice of toys. On the other hand, researchers Kumiko Fukumura (University of Strathclyde, Scotland), Jukka Hyönä and Merete Scholfield (University of Turku, Finland), found no correlation between the pronoun system we use and our gender thinking. In the Finnish language, genders are not differentiated; “hän” refers equally to both females and males, and yet Finns do not think about the gender of people any differently than speakers of English, the researchers report.

Do gender-based words affect our behaviour?

people, especially when they’re older.” Vandikas’ parents, for example, haven’t yet fully embraced the concept. Faer mother once asked faer to help her understand how fae would like her to talk about faer. Fae was encouraged, but faer mother’s use of the pronouns didn’t last – maybe, fae said, because it was such a foreign concept to the older generation, “so I just said to myself, she’s my mom, I’ll deal with it.” Reading that sentence may have been challenging for even the most open-minded readers, but Vandikas, and others who hope the English language evolves, said it’s worth the trouble. Respecting others is more important than being grammatically correct. Words hold power, Vandikas noted, especially when they feel wrong and especially when you have an identity disorder and rely on that perfect pronoun to understand who you are and find a sense of community. “When people say gender pronouns are too confusing, what they are really saying is they don’t want to take the time to question their assumptions about gender,” said York University associate professor Sheila Cavanagh. Gender is more complicated and nuanced than simple male and female, she said. “The importance of language, and gender pronoun usage, should not be underestimated.” Increasingly, professors at York U. and other North American post-secondary schools ask students to indicate their preferred gender pronoun when they introduce themselves. Some go further, allowing students to register their pronouns in the university computer systems; professors are urged to include their pronouns in email signatures. Alicia Lapointe, PhD candidate at the University of Western Ontario faculty of education, suggested it may be easier for youth, who tend to view gender and sexuality differently. “They’re more fluid and open about it. By high school or post-secondary, it’s too late to unlearn any transphobia or homophobia. Elementary students, in particular, are often bullied because of gender expression.” Lapointe uses nametags that say “please use … pronouns” and introduces herself with: I’m Alicia and I use she, her, hers pronouns. “It’s a way to get people to see that you shouldn’t assume,” she said. “I don’t think we lose anything by acknowledging our wide diversity, or celebrating it. Our society is only better if we celebrate everyone for who they are.”
