its stand on the future of local hospitals ended Tuesday when one councillor walked out of a meeting.

A provincial expert panel

concluded hospitals should be merged within Scarborough and within Durham, which would split RVHS between two regions.

Speculation Doug Ford may run in provincial byelection in Scarborough

BrusH-a-mania BEGINS

Doug Ford may be looking to run provincially in Scarborough-Rouge River byelection Ford, part of a famous Etobicoke family, seems to be entertaining the idea of running for provincial office in Scarborough.

Fa n s o f t h e f o r m e r Etobicoke councillor and 2014 mayoral candidate have sometimes speculated he might run as a MPP, as his father Doug Ford Sr. did.

Meeting

ORAL HEALTH MONTH: Mya Medina brushes her teeth during the Brush-a-mania event at St. Columba Catholic school Friday to mark Oral Health Month in April. Dentists and the Rotary Club of Toronto-Don Mills team up to teach oral health as part of the program.

Ford met Progressive Conser vative MPP Lisa MacLeod this week, which brought on talk he could seek the now-vacant seat in Scarborough-Rouge River.

The riding’s Liberal MPP, Bas Balkissoon, suddenly resigned late last month.

PC Leader Patrick Brown has said at least 10 people h a v e e x p re s s e d i n t e r-

Man charged in fatal hit and run A man wanted in a fatal hit and run in Scarborough last Thursday has surrendered to police.

Police said a 56-year-old woman was attempting to

cross Markham Road near Nashdene Road around 9:45 p.m. when she was struck by a Mercedes.

est in seeking the party’s Scarborough-Rouge River nomination.

Ford hasn’t said anything about his intentions or what the meeting was about.

Premier Kathleen Wynne must declare a byelection to fill the seat within six months.

There’s also been speculation about who will contest the seat for other parties.

Piragal Thiru, vice-president of the provincial Liberals, announced he is seeking to run in the byelection.

Scarborough wMissing canoeist identified

A 23-year-old Scarborough m a n w h o d r ow n e d i n Pigeon Lake, northwest of Peterborough, has been identified as Spencer Dunn.

Ontario Provincial Police said Dunn and two friends (a man and a woman) set out to retrieve a pedal boat that had drifted from shore when the

canoe they were in capsized at about 5 p.m. Sunday.

Though none of the canoeists were wearing life-jackets, a 19-year-old man managed to make it back to shore.

OPP search E m e rg e n c y s e r v i c e s, including officers from OPP’s City of Kawartha Lakes detachment, were called to the scene at about 7:30 p.m.

Officers with the Underwater Search and Rescue Unit and an OPP helicopter took part in the search.

Dunn’s body was recovered at about 3:45 p.m. Tuesday.

The search continues for the second missing canoeist, a 28-year-old woman from Halton.

Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call OPP’s City of Kawartha Lakes detachment at 1-888310-1122.

Take Crosstown LRT to UTSC by 2021: councillor mIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com The Crosstown East can easily be built to the University of Toronto Scarborough by 2021, says a prominent councillor asking the city to do just that.

Through amendments approved

by Toronto Council last week, Joe Mihevc directed city staff to make plans for completing, “by 2021, if at all possible,” proposed eastern and western extensions of the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail line.

Senior staff had told a February public meeting in Scarborough an

eastern Crosstown extension from Kennedy Station to UTSC would take at least eight years to build, the same as an “optimized” one-stop subway to Scarborough Town Centre.

But Mihevc, a mid-town Toronto councillor, said the east and west extensions are “very, very easy,” compared to the rest of the Crosstown, because they are at-grade.

Without the need for underground tunnelling, there’s no reason why the extensions cannot be opened along with the rest of Crosstown in 2021, he said this week.

“That would be one heck of an accomplishment for us all.”

Reports on the Crosstown East, along with several other transit projects, will be presented to Mayor John Tory’s Executive Committee on June 28.

Mihevc’s call for an “expedited” construction schedule for the Crosstown East and West was added at a previous committee meeting.

Scarborough residents have been told relatively little about the Crosstown East, which would travel along Eglinton Avenue to Kingston Road, and then north on Morningside Avenue and directly through the UTSC campus.

The university has centred plans

for development and expansion of the campus on a light-rail line serving as focal point for a new Campus Core district.

The province did, however, shelve a previously-proposed LRT route to the campus in 2009. Campus officials, knowing most Scarborough councillors have been hostile to surface LRT routes in the past, are privately worried funding for the Crosstown East will ultimately go towards another city transit project.

Former Mayor Rob Ford, with local political support, blocked the imminent construction of

the Sheppard East LRT through Scarborough in 2010.

The project, though still funded, is now described as “paused” and delayed until sometime after 2021.

There’s speculation it will never be built.

Until 2013, the city also planned another LRT line to Scarborough Centre, but that project was cut in favour of the now-”optimized” subway extension.

Mihevc said he understands pessimism about the Crosstown East, but believes council has achieved a consensus on projects it wants to do.

Rob Ford’s seat must be filled through byelection

Write us

W

hen it comes to how the Toronto council seat belonging to the late Rob Ford will be filled, there should be no debate. Obviously, the city must call a byelection for Ward 2 Etobicoke North.

Ford, the former mayor between 2010 and 2014 and before that Etobicoke North councillor from 2000 to 2010 and then again from 2014 until his death last month after a battle with cancer, would have wanted it that way.

The man believed in the power of the people and the voice of the voter as being supreme.

To do anything but call a byelection, would be a serious error on the part of Toronto council.

The first step for councillors our view will be to declare Ford’s Ward 2 seat vacant, and that is expected Ford would to happen at the May 3 meeting.

That’s a legal requirement have wanted under the City of Toronto Act: that the seat be declared vacant it that way within two council meetings of a councillor’s death, resignation or other reason why it can no longer be filled by the previously elected councillor. Since there’s already been a council meeting, late last week after Ford’s funeral took place March 30, next month’s council meeting is when his seat must be declared vacant.

At the May 3 meeting, councillors can consider one of two options as to what they can do to fill the seat – either they call a byelection or they appoint someone to be a ‘caretaker’ councillor for the ward until the next municipal election in 2018.

The City of Toronto Act gives councillors a lot of leeway as they are actually only required to appoint if it is fewer than 90 days prior to the next municipal election.

There is no maximum amount of time left in a term that requires a byelection over an appointment.

The decision is at council’s discretion.

Given that there are more than two years left on this term, it seems clear councillors should decide to call a byelection. It’s the right thing to do.

Once called, the byelection must be held within 60 days of the seat being declared vacant. We look forward to a vote for the Ward 2 Etobicoke North council seat taking place in late June or early July.

That’s what’s best for democracy, the people of Etobicoke North, and Toronto council as a whole.

Will councillors go for a ranked ballot system?

You don’t want to make judgements on character based on a single vote or action. We humans are more complex creatures than just one vote and we do things for all sorts of complicated reasons.

But it’s hard to not draw some pretty firm conclusions about the character or at least motive of councillors who don’t support ranked ballot voting in Toronto.

The system, not currently in use anywhere in Canada but applied in countries throughout the world, allows voters to rank their choices on a ballot. If their first choice candidate fails to get more than half the votes, their second choice is counted instead. This goes on until some candidate or another gets half of the total first, second, third and quite possibly 15th-place votes.

The point is that only candidates who can appeal to half the voters in their jurisdiction get to be councillors.

In the last term of council, a majority of councillors

david nickle the city voted to ask the provincial government to give Toronto the option to use ranked ballots rather than the firstpast-the-post system currently in place.

Then a couple of things happened. The first was the 2014 election. In total, 29 councillors were elected with more than 50 per cent of the vote, and 11 of these 29 were elected with less than 60 per cent of the vote.

Mayor John Tory had just 40.3 per cent of the popular vote.

The second was a latenight vote in 2015, when Ward 5 Councillor Justin Di Ciano, elected for the first time in 2014 with 54.1 per cent, put forward a motion to tell the province council didn’t mean what it said and was very happy with firstpast-the-post system.

If the province puts the ranked ballot system

in place, his motion said, Toronto should be able to opt out or require a referendum to impose it. And that won, 25-18.

But the province didn’t listen, and this week announced that despite Toronto’s second thoughts, a municipality can select its representatives using ranked ballots if council agrees. No need for a referendum; just a vote of council.

And we’ll see how that goes when this inevitably comes before council again.

I’m not optimistic it will go any better. A council chamber populated only by very popular councillors would not be the same one we have today. It’s not to say that the 14 councillors and one mayor who couldn’t get 50 per cent plus one on the first ballot would all be gone; they might well have made it up in second- and third-place choices.

But some, like vote-poor Ward 16 Eglinton-Lawrence Christin Carmichael Greb

would have had a real challenge parlaying her 17.4 per cent of the vote into a majority.

But broadening her base of appeal, she might have.

Who could say? From a campaign strategist’s point of view, particularly one working for an incumbent, that uncertainty makes for a real problem. Simply feeding one’s political base doesn’t ensure a lifetime in municipal politics under a ranked ballot system.

In fact, what it does do is ensure that catering to one vocal minority in a ward will pretty much guarantee defeat at the polls, because that leaves one a first choice of that minority, and a second choice for no one.

For politicians worried about their careers, that’s terrifying. For voters and taxpayers, that’s empowering. It’s a ray of hope.

Veteran Councillor Moeser announces he has lymphoma Ron Moeser, a veteran councillor for Scarborough East, says he has cancer.

The Ward 44 has represented his area almost without a break since the late 1980s, serving on the former city of Scarborough council for nine years before Toronto’s amalgamation.

Elected a Toronto council, he was defeated in 2003, but returned in 2006 and has held his post since.

On Wednesday, March 30,

Moeser sent a brief statement to his council colleagues and Mayor John Tory saying he had been recently diagnosed with lymphoma.

“I am currently undergoing testing to determine the extent of this illness and the course of treatment that will follow,” says the statement, which included Moeser’s pledge to continue his duties to the city and his constituents “as my condition permits.”

#redtaghq

“I am very thankful to have great support from my family and dedicated staff at this difficult time.”

Moeser’s last council term was affected by health issues, including a serious infection following joint replacement surgery that caused him to miss some council meetings.

Now in his 70s, he won re-election in 2014 after registering to run on the last possible day.

Investigators are asking for the public’s assistance to determine Singh’s whereabouts prior to the discovery of his body. Anyone with information should contact police at 416-808-4200. robbed in wWoman violent Carjacking

2009: TAMILS IN PROTEST

Toronto demonstrations shaped the lives of many young Tamils, says author MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com Tamil families in Scarborough and Markham can’t forget 2009.

In that year’s first months, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) were losing a 25-year-long civil war in Sri Lanka.

Thousands of protestors blocked Toronto’s University Avenue. On May 10, one week before the war ended, hundreds ran onto the Gardiner Expressway.

The Gardiner occupation was called spontaneous, an act by people who had lost relatives in the fighting and didn’t know how else to get their government’s attention.

It was a mistake.

People inside and outside the protests immediately saw the highway occupation made Canada less likely to do what Tamil-Canadian activists wanted: sanctions on Sri Lanka, diplomatic ties cut, and a ceasefire somehow arranged.

Pain, Pride, and Politics, a recent book by Amarnath Amarasingam, concludes storming the Gardiner “was a very alienating event” for most Canadians.

But Amarasingam says

whatever strategic errors demonstrators made, the protests and collective grieving of 2009 were a watershed moment for youth of the Tamil diaspora, a kind of “founding event” for a generation that “shaped their Tamil identity, changed some peoples’ life direction.”

Many youth at the protests were learning about the conflict in their homeland for the first time, the post-doctoral fellow at Dalhousie University added last month in Scarborough, where his father once owned a furniture shop.

“A lot of these kids (down on University Avenue) didn’t even know what was happening” when they first joined, said Amarasingam, who did 130 interviews with the protestors and Tamil-Canadians who supported them.

Protest leaders – Amarasingam said many were with the Tamil Youth Organization or being advised by former leaders of the then-banned World Tamil Movement – “didn’t do a very good job of explaining to Canadians what was going on.”

There was an effort, however, to frame the struggle in Sri Lanka as a humanitarian crisis, comparing the killing of Tamils

there with the Holocaust or to genocides in Rwanda and Darfur.

But the LTTE and its money-collecting arm, the WTM, had by then been banned in Canada as terrorist groups. Signs and chants at protests praising the Tigers and their leader Vellupillai Prabhakaran, and particularly the LTTE flag, were a strategic blunder during the war’s final months, Amarasingam argues.

Though he adds it “was largely outside the control of many of the organizers” to keep the flag (which shows a tiger between two rifles and a circle of bullets) out of protests, Amarsingam says “organizers realized they needed it to attract some participants from the Tamil community.”

Some who were there, he added last month, said putting the flag away would have been like put-

“

The demonstrations should be remembered less for what they accomplished and more for the emotional and individual significance they have for participants themselves.

– excerpt from Pain, Pride, and Politics

Photo/COURTESY

Academic, author and Scarborough native Amarnath Amarasingam has written, 'Pain, Pride, and Politics', a book about Tamil-Canadian protests in Toronto at the end of the civil war in Sri Lanka in 2009.

ting aside their own Tamil identity.

By early May, Torontonians became desensitized to the downtown protest, which lasted so long “It began being talked about as part of the morning traffic report.”

Amarasingam says the Gardiner event was likely planned as a way to get the protest back in the news.

“There was talk of taking over some major highway as early as February,” he remembered. But the May 10 occupation was “somewhat spontaneous” because an LTTE hospital was bombed the night before.

Amarasingam says Pain, Pride, and Politics is the first book about Tamil diaspora politics in Canada, one attempting to answer the question of “how we got here.”

He summarizes the brutal conflict in Sri Lanka, including events (such as the Tigers’ ruthless elimination of rival Tamil groups or its expulsion of Muslims from the island’s north and east) he says were not well known to many in the community.

Born on Sri Lanka’s Jaffna Peninsula, Amarasingam said before the war ended, TamilCanadians couldn’t really

write about organizations like WTM. The book recounts how some WTM agents, “young men with big egos equipped with dangerously short fuses,” lobbed a half-empty bottle of apple juice through frontdoor glass of his father’s shop.

“Almost every older Tamil person has a story about those LTTE money collectors,” Amarasingam says, explaining such incidents were once “just part of our day.”

He adds, “The vast majority of us” supported the effort to build a Tamil Eelam and wanted to contribute. “There were people who would give away 60, 70 per cent of their income.”

Now that the LTTE is gone and the government in Sri Lanka has changed, there’s a new diversity of opinion among Tamil youth in Canada, “a generation reading new things, thinking new things,” Amarasingam said.

Many “want to talk about development (in Tamil areas of Sri Lanka), helping people in the north and east,” and issues involving caste, he says.

Scarborough Civic Centre fantastic The Scarborough Civic Centre received a visit in December from its original architect, the legendary Raymond Moriyama, and The Scarborough Mirror ran a piece chronicling his visit and his thoughts on the evolution of the building.

That story can be found at bit.ly/1V4oNks and it outlines Moriyama’s thoughts on how the ultimate use of the Scarborough Civic Centre may not have met his vision in certain instances.

Despite Moriyama’s concerns, having worked at the Scarborough Civic Centre for more than 10 years, and recently transferred to the North York Civic Centre, one thing has become crystal clear to me: The Scarborough Civic Centre is an absolutely fantastic space to work, use and play.

Not that the North York Civic Centre is really all that bad. It’s got location going for it. Mel Lastman Square is a happening space with a bustling farmers’ market, skating rink and the plain old Yonge

john lyon LYON AROUND Street vibrancy of the area. It has a warm red brick interior and functions well enough, I guess.

It’s just that the Scarborough Civic Centre is so, well, fantastic. It has been described by co-workers as light, airy, spacious, well-designed, open; it has good air circulation and more overlook than a Canadian senator’s expense claim.

Apparently operating at a loss, although subsidized, the cafeteria closed its doors after many years of service to city workers and visitors. It provided a valuable service to staff, and employed some special needs adults. The décor was straight out of the psychedelic ‘70s complete with orange seating; I kept expecting a crew to move in to film restaurant scenes from Starsky and Hutch 2.

In terms of public use, it appears the Scarborough Civic

Centre is thriving.

Locations of various departments are well signed. The oddly named, but centrally located rotunda hosts numerous events, from blood donation clinics, to graduations, to science fairs. Seniors enjoy the Sunday Serenade concert series and can be seen dancing precariously near the fish pond. Very old school. And very cool.

Perhaps the space is best used when local councilors host job fairs. These events are teeming with employers and job seekers, and this can only provide an excellent service to the community. Many new Canadians attend.

A new library has just opened its doors and adds vibrancy and function to the front doors of the civic centre.

The Scarborough Civic Centre is functioning well in the 21st century and is just a fine space to use.

Ford’s impact on the city undeniable Toronto lost a polarizing yet undeniably much-loved public figure March 22.

Whether you benefitted from Rob Ford’s enthusiastic, hands-on “customer service” approach to politics or not, whether you forgave his personal failings and embraced his bottom-line good intentions or not, it’s impossible to deny Ford’s dizzying and altering imprint on Toronto.

There is even a rip-roaring debate about whether he should be immortalized with his own statue.

Devoted supporters and razor-tongued critics all had a bit of an obsession with Rob Ford during his intense four years as chief leader of our city. He will be memorialized differently by both camps.

If a consensus is to be found, it’s that Ford genuinely cared about people in his way, set the bar high for personal contact with the public, but failed to make the “structural changes” through municipal laws and budgeting that would have truly improved the quality of life for struggling

helen stratigos gems of scarborough

Toronto residents.

Top journalists produced rational lists of Ford’s shortcomings and trespasses to counteract the loyalty of Ford Nation.

Yet that gut-level, visceral, personal connection to him – love, in a word – would not be denied, much to the bewilderment of those who hadn’t experienced (or sought out) Ford’s human touch for themselves.

I’d never met Rob Ford personally. I wasn’t a fan of his closed-mindedness on certain social issues or his tendency to spout offensive comments. I was angry he had cancelled the Transit City RT plan. He’d visited Scarborough many times, was familiar with our cul-de-sacs, highrises and workers, and to the exasperation of critics, enjoyed huge popularity here.

True to legend, he’d given his cellphone number to one

of my close family members (a nurse from the Philippines) at a community event. And yes, he called her back. “I was frustrated with an issue relating to my driving test and licence, so I called Ford. I left a message at about 8 p.m. one night. After about an hour, he called me back personally. I couldn’t believe it. Even after business hours, he called me.

It made me feel so important – someone as busy as Rob Ford, took the time.”

The kicker? “He followed up after three days to check up on how things were going.

I was amazed. He asked, ‘What can I do for you? Would you like me to come to your ward and help?’”

Many believed Ford was a man who brought the underrepresented “edges” of The 6 to the forefront. The history books will sort it all out. Rest in peace, Rob Ford.

30 PEOPLE WITH HEARING LOSS Qualified Participants Needed for Technology Field Test

We’re looking for people like you, who may be experiencing varying levels of hearing loss to evaluate a remarkable new line of digital hearing aids and a rehabilitative process that could be the solution to your difficulties. There’s no cost or obligation to participate!

Call us toll-free today at one of the numbers below to see if you qualify for this Field Test. Potential candidates will be given a FREE hearing test to determine candidacy.

Participants will be a given a FREE in-office demonstration, as well as the opportunity to evaluate and report their experience wearing the latest, most advanced hearing aid technology for 30 days. A full range of styles are available in this new technology, including the exceptionally discreet open-fit and invisible-in-the-canal models shown here:

It’s almost a shame this technology isn’t more visible!

Open-fit and IIC hearing aids are smaller and more sophisticated than ever, striking the perfect balance between size and performance. The elegant and highly discreet open-fit hearing aid fits perfectly on top of your ear, and the thin tube in your ear canal is designed to disappear against your skin. The new IIC hearing aid–now with wireless technology–provides all of the outstanding features and benefits you want in a digital hearing aid, minus the stigma that came with wearing one in the past.

Due to overwhelming demand, we’ve extended the selection process until April 29, 2016!

BEAM Plus is the only authorized Beam dealer in Scarborough since 1980

BEAM Plus Home Care Products is the only authorized and recognized dealer of Beam central vacuums in Scarborough.

Though other vacuum companies have tried to compete and failed, BEAM has excelled at designing and perfecting their central vacuums.

BEAM products are high quality and long lasting, leading the market since starting in 1957.

Ted, the owner of BEAM Plus, has provided Scarborough homes with top quality home care products for 40 years. His experience has taught him that a BEAM central vacuum is usually the last vacuum a family ever has to purchase, since it lasts 20 to 40 years. He trusts the brand to keep his home clean because of the efficiency, convenience and time-saving qualities. With two daughters at home, Ted only uses the best to remove allergens and create a healthier environment.

Torontonians visit BEAM Plus for their home care needs. With all of the top brands, there’s something available for all price points and requirements. Customers visit the showroom and are taken step-by-step through the process. Ted and his knowledgeable staff assess each client’s needs and budget and recommend the perfect vacuum, stove, fireplace, air conditioner or other

BEAM central vacuums create a superior clean and a healthier living environment.

The local business is known for its honesty, reliability and top notch customer service. Customers are educated on the pros and cons of all products before being given the final decision.

Ted and his staff regularly attend seminars and hold meetings to stay up-to-date on all new technologies and products in the home care field.

BEAM Plus will soon be releasing new deals to thank customers for their continued loyalty.

Kelly walks out of council meeting >>>from page 1 the oldest still used in Ontario, and a community hub. Later on, Scarborough, as well as Durham, would each get a new “comprehensive” hospital campus, the report suggests.

Rouge Valley supporters, with Scarborough East Councillor Ainslie among them, insist they support most of the panel’s recommendations but don’t want the hospital broken up.

At times during the Tuesday meeting, they supported joining all four campuses of the RVHS and The Scarborough Hospital “as equals” –

reviving a proposed merger that fell apart two years ago – as an alternative. They also proposed studying “enhanced regional governance,” perhaps leading to a single hospital corporation controlling sites from Scarborough and all of Durham, including Oshawa’s Lakeridge Health.

But RVHS CEO Andree Robichaud and others told Scarborough councillors the province’s hand-picked experts misunderstood data showing most patients in western Durham head west for health services, not east.

“Unfortunately, their analysis was flawed,” said Robichaud. “It’s about market share,” said the CEO, adding since money from Ontario’s health ministry “follows the patient,” a separate hospital corporation in Durham will lose some of that money.

Graeme McKay, vicechair of the RVHS board, said the hospital presented Health Minister Dr. Eric Hoskins last week with a third-party analysis of the data, as well as 1,000 signatures from a group, Save Our Hospital.

In February, Scarborough councillors voted 4-3 to support all of the panel recommendations, including the ones on mergers.

Ainslie, whose wife is a board member of the RVHS Foundation, tried to intro-

duce a motion Tuesday stating Scarborough councillors believe RVHS “should remain whole” and undivided by municipal boundaries. Ainslie stated his wife’s position was unpaid, and therefore not a conflict of interest.

Chin Lee, Scarborough Community Council chair, who had championed the earlier resolution sent to the province, ignored objections from other councillors who argued community council had already taken a position.

One of these was Norm Kelly, who said two-thirds of Scarborough councillors – seven out of 10 – had to agree to re-open the issue.

Only six were in the chamber at the time, and Kelly made it five by walking out, with the parting words, “Mister Chair, you do not have quorum.”

All this was seen by representatives from the Central East Local Health Integration Network and the Ministry of Health, which has yet to comment on the panel report.

Before the meeting ended, Pat Sherman, chair of a community advisory group for TSH, urged councillors to continue their support for the panel’s plan. “Let’s not screw this up, and throw away promises of good money that we haven’t had in the last 40 years.”

Frog Watch volunteers sought Frogs are waking up in the Rouge River watershed, and volunteers are needed to keep track of them.

People participating in the annual Rouge Park Frog Watch don’t usually see the frogs they count, but record the distinct calls of each species.

Participants may be lucky enough, for example, to hear a leopard frog, whose call sounds a bit like fingers rubbing a wet balloon.

Park management says this year’s three Frog Watch evenings are on Tuesday,

A leopard frog is among the frogs that call the Rouge Valley home.

April 26, Tuesday, May 24, and Tuesday, June 28. There is a training workshop for

frog watchers on Monday, April 25 in the Toronto Zoo’s Administration Building at 7 p.m.

Such events are popular and spots fill up fast.

Residents who can commit to all four evenings, and are at least 13 years old, can sign up by writing to rouge@pc.gc. ca and including the names and ages of participants.

Children 12 and under can take part in a Junior Frog Watch Program on the evening of Sunday, May 22, park management added in a release this week.

Singing slated for Eglinton Square >>>from page 1 they place you – if you are a baritone or a tenor,” said Neely. “They position everyone and everyone gets lyric sheets and everyone sings along.”

Choir! Choir! Choir! will help residents sing Happy Together by the Turtles, Happy by Pharrel, and Sweet

Caroline by Neil Diamond.

Then on April 16, Eglinton Square will host performances by the Scarborough Arts Jazz Band from noon to 4 p.m.

In addition to the community musical entertainments on both days, there will be free ice cream, potted seeds, flowers, massages and more as part of the Let Us Make

Your Day events.

There will be a cheque presentation for Scarborough Arts at the end of the day April 16.

Donations will also be accepted for Scarborough Arts at www.scarborougharts. com For more information, visit www.eglintonsquare.ca

The creamy white sauce was a layover from Kailey’s mother’s days as a vegan and a throwback to the Italy her mom had left behind when she was seven. But over time, the creamy cashew concoction became a pet project for both Kailey and her mother. “She and I had always been obsessed with cooking together, that was how we bonded and spent all our time,” says Kailey.

Mom’s Secret Recipe Earns Vegan Entrepreneur Fans Amongst Toronto Carnivores As Well No matter the occasion, a holiday or visit during spring break, Kailey Gilchrist knew that when she made that drive from university in Toronto back home to Barrie, she’d be greeted by a familiar smell – that secret family recipe, her mom’s cashew sauce. “She had been making this cashew sauce for years,” she says.

So when the theatre major went vegan, her mom followed suit and they took to evolving the cashew sauce into a vegan alfredo. It was a work in progress when her mother died. “I was finishing up my degree and cooking like crazy to deal with the grief,” she says. The rest of her time was devoted to working her job demoing products at a health food store. “And my sister was like ‘hey, you should sell some of the stuff that you’re making.’ ” It was an a-ha moment for Kailey. The entrepreneurial theatre major set out perfecting the sauce and launched NONA Vegan Foods, expanding to include two more vegan sauces – carbonara-style and cheesy-style. She’s grown from local, independent shops to over 50 stores including Loblaws and Whole Foods throughout Ontario especially the Greater Toronto Area.

To help launch her business, Kailey took advantage of groups like Enterprise Toronto and Futurepreneur, which Kailey received both a loan and mentorship from.“I’m blown away with how many resources there are in Toronto – all these little hubs and networking events and the little communities that just want to support small businesses,” she says.
