Ainslie wins third term in Ward 43 ANDREW PALAMARCHUK apalamarchuk@insidetoronto.com

Paul Ainslie has been reelected to a third term in Scarborough East’s Ward 43. Ainslie garnered 12,358 votes to cruise to victory over four challengers for the council seat. Second place went to Mark Harris with 1,750 votes, Jason Colterman was third with 1,437, Alonzo Bartley was fourth with 799 votes and Andi Kodanipork had 283 votes. “I’m just looking forward to the next four years,” Ainslie said. “I’ve got a strong mandate from the residents of Ward 43. I think they really appreciate the work I do and that my staff does, and I’m going to continue to work hard for them here in the community and at city hall. I’m here for them first and foremost.”

Moeser tops field of 15 in Ward 44 ANDREW PALAMARCHUK apalamarchuk@insidetoronto.com

Jennifer McKelvie had two memorable moments on the campaign trail in Scarborough East’s Ward 44: watching a butterfly opening its wings for the first time and meeting a woman who had just found out that her breast cancer was in remission. “I was able to give her a hug, and that was absolutely fabulous,” McKelvie said of the encounter with the cancer survivor. “And it puts this evening, for example, into perspective.” McKelvie finished a close second in Monday’s election, garnering 5,844 votes (23 per cent). Incumbent Ron Moeser came in first with 6,416 votes (26 per cent). He didn’t return calls from Metroland Media Toronto.

“Some of the best moments in the campaign happened at the doors,” said McKelvie, adding she met a woman who hatches butterflies “and she had butterflies that were unrolling their wings and I got to watch that happen.” McKelvie, an environmental geoscientist, was endorsed by former mayoral candidate Karen Stintz, MPP Tracy MacCharles, MP Corneliu Chisu and Toronto Professional Firefighter’s Association. “We ran an incredibly strong campaign,” McKelvie said. “We hit every single door in the ward, we had over 100 volunteers, we had an incredible team...We threw everything at this that we could, and I accept the decision the people have made.” Diana Hall came in third with 5,530 votes (22 per cent), Amarjeet Chhabra placed

fourth with 2,852 votes (11 per cent) and Richard Ross was fifth with 1,859 votes (7 per cent). The crowded field of 15 candidates also included Mohammed Mirza (445 votes), Paul Maguire (362 votes), Ragu Thanabalasingam (353 votes), Ashley Sondhi (337 votes), Arlene Nielsen (237 votes), Neethra Vipulanandan (202 votes), Phil Allen (185 votes), Marc Proctor (147 votes), Graham Beckmann (128 votes) and MarkPaul St. Bishoy (37 votes). Moeser has served as a councillor for the area since 1988, with the exception of 2003 to 2006 when Gay Cowbourne replaced him. Hall, Cowbourne’s executive assistant, was narrowly defeated by Moeser in both the 2006 and 2010 municipal elections.

February 2006 to fill the vacancy that was created when Bas Balkissoon was elected in a provincial byelection. When David Soknacki announced he wasn’t seeking re-election in Ward 43 in 2006, Ainslie put his name forward as a candidate. Soknacki, a former mayoral candidate, endorsed Ainslie in this year’s race and dropped by Ainslie’s victory party. “I’m very pleased that he had a strong mandate,” Soknacki said. “Paul spends great attention to the ward and ward issues, and people have confidence that when they have a local issue that he has both the interest in dealing with it locally (and) also the ability to make sure that it’s dealt with downtown.”

Everybody loves Raymond Cho again in Ward 42 ALI RAZA araza@@insidetoronto.com In c u m b e n t c o u n c i l l o r Raymond Cho has won his eighth consecutive election as a Scarborough representative on council.

One of which, Neethan Shan, attempted to beat Cho a second time after the 2010 election. “I’m so thankful to all the very dedicated volunteers and residents of ScarboroughRouge River,” Cho said after his victory. “The people of this ward know that my office staff and I work very hard for them.” Cho has been a Scarborough councillor for

23 years, the longest serving councillor at city hall. He said overwhelming support from residents convinced him that he would have a landslide victory.

Tory has small window to establish credibility as mayor

Write us

M

ayor-elect John Tory must quickly prove he’s a wise choice. More than 60 per cent of eligible Torontonians went to the polls on Monday and elected Tory by a six-per-cent-margin over rival Doug Ford. This signals at least a temporary end to the Ford reign in Toronto, but it wasn’t enough of a victory to suggest Torontonians have denounced any Fordian influence. In fact, 36 of 37 incumbent council members were re-elected, suggesting Torontonians are happy with their representation at a neighborhood level – there’s just a different expectation of the person seated in the mayor’s chair. Tory must achieve significantly better results working with the same councillors who set a dysfunctional tone of civic government during the past four years. Tory has a small window our view to establish his credibility. So see him build some quick Time to build let’s consensus on SmartTrack or a consensus on similar transit plan, and convince various levels of government and transit potential other funding agencies that the plan will stick and it is the will of Torontonians. Tory must quickly prove he has the ear and the interest of both provincial and federal governments. We’d like to see quick signs from the province and the federal government that Toronto’s future issues are a priority befitting the economic engine of the province and there’s no trepidation dealing – and believing in – the new administration. Tory has been given the keys to the city. If he can unlock the door and present a bright future, Toronto will reach its potential as a place to live and grow, with smart plans for development catching the eyes of a global marketplace. If he doesn’t, there’s an alternate view in the brothers Ford, who still hold influence in city politics and will be quick to point out any Tory misstep. Forgive us for breaking into a baseball analogy: Two years ago, the Toronto Blue Jays brought some fresh all-star faces to their lineup, and building anticipation of great things to come. It took only a limited number of games to realize that team was not going to be a winner, despite all the promise. Toronto can’t afford to fail. We will see what happens next. But we need to see it quickly.

Extra (hour), extra (hour), read all about it

e change the clocks back an hour Sunday morning and I can’t wait. I usually sleep through the annual routine, but I’m going to make a point of being wide awake this year. There’s no time to do anything anymore, and to have a whole extra hour fall right in your lap is just too good an opportunity to pass up. I’ve got a good game plan set up and to ensure I stick to it, my trusty stopwatch will be draped around my neck. For those of you who haven’t decided what to do with your bonus hour, hopefully my agenda will serve as inspiration. First up, I plan to listen to The Minute Waltz. The strategy is to make every minute count, so I can’t think of a more fitting way to get the show on the road. Right after that, to further prove I mean business, I’m going waltz to The Minute Waltz. Then I’m going to macarena to

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY

The Minute Waltz and then I’ll wrap up my musical ensemble by moonwalking to The Minute Waltz – straight to the kitchen, to rustle up a three-minute egg. I’m not going to eat it, mind you. I’ve got more pressing things to do first. That means taking out my hockey stick and shooting a puck into the stands, which will get me two minutes for delay of game. You won’t hear me arguing with the referee, either. It was intentional. Those two minutes are exactly as long as it will take for my neighbour’s border collie, Sparky, to come over after I whistle. I’m going to enlist him to chase Frisbees on the lawn for exactly seven minutes. That’s an impressive 49 minutes in human minutes for him. Sparky’s acrobatic skills

are something to behold. Each time you let a Frisbee fly he leaps high into the air and ever so elegantly snags the disc in his jaws with the grace of Mikhail Baryshnikov in his prime. I’m not exaggerating. I saw Baryshnikov catch Frisbees in his teeth during an unforgettable performance of Swan Lake at the Bolshoi and his moves had nothing on this agile pooch. But I digress. Watching Sparky always leaves me exhausted. So I’ll break for recess right after he works his magic. I’ll need all 15 minutes to catch my breath. Now that I think about it, going through all the above is sure to wipe me out and I’ll only have used up 31 minutes to that point. Add on the fact that said extra hour starts at 2 a.m. and this could be a lot tougher than I anticipated. The most sensible thing for me to do at that point is to scrap my original plan and get a friend to help

me complete my task. The only one I know with the energy to last the final 29 minutes is Sparky. It’s a lot to ask, a staggering 203 minutes in human minutes, but if anybody can carry the baton, it’s him. So, I’ll just kick back and watch while the nimble pup listens to The Minute Waltz, then waltzes to The Minute Waltz, then does the macarena to The Minute Waltz and then moonwalks to The Minute Waltz – straight to the kitchen, to rustle up another three-minute egg to take it to 38 minutes. Then I’ll get him to do it all again one last time to get to 45 minutes. After which I’ll end with one last recess to make it an even hour. Then I’ll let him devour those eggs all by his lonesome.

Sheppard subway a priority for councillor >>>from page 1 experience and connections with the federal government to help the transit push for Scarborough residents north of the 401. Second place in the race went to Franco Ng. Karygiannis had 57 per cent of the vote, while Ng was a distant second with about 17 per cent of the vote. Third place went to Cozette Giannini with about 10 per cent of the vote. “The biggest thing I’m going to work on is that subway,” Karygiannis said as he spoke to the media after his win. “We got to extend it from Don Mills all the way to Scarborough Town Centre and further.” Karygiannis said a “priority” is to work with councillors to “have a functional city council.” He said the last number of years council was “a little bit dysfunctional.” Ng, who hoped to win on the backing of his experience under former councillor Mike Del Grande, congratulated

Karygiannis on his victory. “The people of Ward 39 have spoken, so I congratulate Jim,” he said. “But I did have some solid support from the people and I thank all of them.” “Jim comes from the federal level and he needs to bring that experience to work really hard for the people of Scarborough-Agincourt,” he added. Ward 39 was one of few without an incumbent running in the race. Former councillor Mike Del Grande resigned in February this year, leaving the seat open to a diverse set of candidates including Jim Karygiannis, Franco Ng, Chris Blueman, Cozette Giannini, Patricia Sinclair, Janet Rivers, Derek Li, Clayton Jones and Jude Coutinho. Transit was a major issue for Ward 39. Specifically, residents and candidates both focused on the Sheppard line extension and the McNicoll Bus Garage. Though all candidates voiced their opinion on transit

solutions for the community, they were unanimous in their support for bringing transit to Scarborough residents north of Highway 401. Karygiannis offered a solution mirroring the previous subway plans in which all three levels of government contributed funds. Ng supports building stations slowly

but surely with one station at a time depending on budget constraints. Aside from transit, better allocation of Scarborough taxpayers’ money was a concern for candidates.

COLOUR-BLIND CASTING diversity takes centre stage in scarborough by MARIA TZAVARAS

S

carborough’s population is so diverse, our theatrical landscape has changed to represent this. Besides restaurants and businesses, the arts and entertainments sector is evolving. Community theatre is always looking for ways to entice new audience members and keep the art form alive, so representing diversity in their shows is a priority. Scarborough Music Theatre (SMT) aims to stage productions suitable for anyone to audition for, regardless of traditional casting stereotypes. For example, in 2003, SMT staged the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar and cast Richard Kwong, of Chinese descent, to play the part of Jesus.

In 2006, they put on a production of The Sound of Music and cast Catherine Uy Huculak, also of Chinese descent, as the iconic character Maria. On opening nights of SMT’s productions, some people may have been surprised to see Kwong and Uy Huculak in their respective roles, but the praise outweighed the few who commented on the “miscasting.” Jacqui Burke, who directed The Sound of Music and cast Uy Huculak as the lead, is the director of SMT’s production of Rodger’s and Hammerstein’s The King and I, and she said she took some criticism for her casting choice. “Scarborough has such a diverse population, if you want to attract a new and more

diverse audience they should be represented in shows,” Burke said. “These stories will start to die otherwise and a lot of them are still worth telling regardless of who’s telling the story as long as it’s told properly.” Burke said whenever a musical classic is staged, such as The Sound of Music, there is a level of audience expectation as to what certain characters will look like, but this needs to be balanced with available talent. “If we don’t embrace our community, then these stories won’t be told, and the talent pool is also more diverse, so you have to go with who is best for the role,” Burke said, adding she casts people based on who she feels is best for the role.

Uy Huculak, who grew up in Scarborough and now lives in North York, said she was more worried about getting the popular songs right. That’s not to say she didn’t think she would ever play that role. “Colour-blind casting has been happening more and more,” she said. “People are getting used to people of different ethnicities criss-crossing if the role doesn’t call for a specific ethnicity.” Kwong said colourblind casting is becoming more the norm, but there is still a ways to go in terms of outreach and education. “I would really love to get to a place where they see my picture and not see the Asian guy, just the guy with the shirt,” he said.

When he auditioned for Jesus Christ Superstar he approached the director beforehand to see if he had specifics in mind. “It takes a lot of work and effort to prepare to audition for a role, and I didn’t want to waste my time if they weren’t going to consider me for the role,” he said. The King and I contains actors from several cultural backgrounds, and both Kwong and Uy Huculak are in the show, playing the King and Lady Tsiang, his head wife. Described as a love story that never was, this show is a complex and engaging tale about a British school teacher named Anna, who comes to Siam in the 1860s to tutor the King’s many children of multiple wives.

Burke said it’s also about political unrest and the meeting of two great cultures, the Siamese and English, and the show highlights the great and not-sogreat aspects of both. Uy Huculak said the story is intelligent and mature, and will resonate with people on several levels. It also has beautiful songs the audiences will know and love. The King and I opens today at Scarborough Village Theatre, 3600 Kingston Rd.

‘The King and I’ is on stage the following dates and times: Oct. 30 and 31, Nov. 1, 6, 7, 8, 13 and 14 at 8 p.m. and Nov. 2, 9 and 15 at 2 p.m. Regular tickets are $27 through the box office by called 416267-9292 or by visiting www. theatrescarborough.com

opinion

Tory has his work cut out for him It has been a long wait, a really long wait, for everyone involved. For John Tory, Monday night’s victory in the hardfought 2014 mayoral election must be like a glass of water after a walk in the desert: finally, a win for a politician who has gamely put his name forward for office so many times, and so many times missed out. And for Toronto, it is a different kind of relief. The pillow, finally removed from our collective face, while improbably there is still breath left in our lungs. The Ford years are done, at least for now. The city government can turn away from what was understatedly called the “distraction” of the Ford brothers. And the Tory years, whatever they may become, have begun. They will contain challenges, but those challenges are not so great as that. Tory has made much of a need to unite Toronto Council. It is unlikely he will have much difficulty in doing so. Over the

david nickle the city past year council had a crash course in uniting itself and maintaining a relatively calm demeanour as it goes about the business of government. His bigger challenge, as he alluded to in his speech Monday night, will be in uniting Toronto – or more to the point, keeping united those voters who gave him a chance to govern. It is a definitive mandate, but not an unequivocal one as many voters who might have supported Olivia Chow’s unabashedly progressive mayoralty moved to Tory’s side for fear of a Doug Ford mayoralty. So it is not likely the whole of Tory’s support feels, for instance, that SmartTrack and the Scarborough subway are the best way to do transit. As those two things formed the centrepiece of Tory’s campaign it is unlikely he will abandon them, and he shouldn’t: a

promise is a promise. But he would do well to embrace elements of Chow’s platform as regards to housing, and perhaps childcare. He hinted in his speech that Chow might yet have a role in the work of the city. Tory will also have to consider the many people who did not support him, but voted for the Ford brand in spite of everything. That is a sizeable portion of the city that rejected both him and any sense of progressive value. Politically at least, Tory will have need to reach out in that direction. One way he might do so is heed what seems to be a growing coalition of Scarborough councillors, and move to kill the remaining LRT lines on Sheppard and Finch. He’ll certainly feel the pressure to do so, even though he is on record supporting the lines. And that will be the hard thing for Tory: reigning in this new, strong council when it gets an idea in its head.

If you’re looking for a scare this Halloween, there are plenty of places in the city to find one MARK A. CADIZ mcadiz@insidetoronto.com

Several apparitions have been spotted over the years: the ‘White Lady’ described to have long hair and a flowing robe wails on the third floor...

n the city’s 180-year history, Torontonians have encountered a myriad of unexplained phenomena. From the urban tales of Fort York to the Ghost of Glendon College, Toronto has amassed its fair share of paranormal activity. And with Halloween on Friday, The Mirror has decided to share seven eerie sites and ghostly accounts with its readers: 1) Queen’s Park Legislative Assembly of Ontario Known for its Richardsonian Romanesque style and light reddish facade, Ontario’s Legislative building, situated in central Toronto, a known site of unexplained phenomena. Before the building was constructed in 1886, a female asylum nicknamed the ‘University Lunatic Asylum’ due to its proximity to the University of Toronto, stood in its place. Several apparitions have been spotted over the years: the ‘White Lady’ described to have long hair and a flowing robe wails on the third floor, the ‘Maiden’ apparently holds her apron over her face; and a woman hanging from a hook has been sighted in the tunnels running beneath the building. 2) Fort York Fort York, one of the first British settlements in Toronto, was a deadly site during the War of 1812. Many invading Americans were killed by a massive explosion ignited by the fleeing British. It is said a mass grave was built for the dead, but no traces of it have been found. With such a long history, it’s no surprise that Fork York is one of the most haunted sites in the city, according to the sheer number of reports from visitors and staff. Numerous accounts have been reported about seeing a red-coated guard by the barracks and front entrance. Another popular story recounted by a staff member involves the Officer’s Quarters. One night while closing up, the staff member observed a light coming from the quarters. As he made his way toward the building, he said he could see figures gathered around a dining table. The closer he got to the building the fainter the apparitions became, and once there, any trace

suddenly fainted in the same spot.

of what he thought was a dinner gathering was gone. 3) Colborne Lodge Built in 1837, Colborne Lodge, situated in High Park, was home to John and Jemima Howard. Jemima died of cancer in 1877. In the early stages of her illness, Howard became extremely concerned about his wife’s behaviour and wanted to have her admitted to an asylum, but his request was denied. Eventually he confined her to her room, concerned for her safety. It is said she spent most of her days looking out the window and still does to this day.

4) Old Finch Road Scarborough Old Finch Road in Scarborough is said to be a site of several haunted tales but the most notorious of them all is about a young lady who was murdered near the site and her body left in the Rouge River in the early 1980s. Ever since then the area is said to be haunted. The case remains unsolved. 5) Montgomery’s Inn Situated in Etobicoke, Montgomery’s Inn was built in 1830 by husband and wife Thomas and Margaret Montgomery. They ran the inn successfully for 25 years until Margaret’s

death in the mid-1850s. Since then, it has been converted to a community museum where there have been a number of unexplained occurrences reported. One tale circulating refers to a school trip involving a young girl. During the tour her teacher realized the girl was missing and went to find her. Apparently the girl said she couldn’t move, saying it was like someone was holding her dress. Eventually she managed to rejoin her classmates. Even stranger, years after the school trip, another member of the same family who visited Montgomery’s Inn is said to have

File photo/IAN KELSO

6) Ghost of Glendon College Most York University students are familiar with the legend of the Ghost of Glendon College. Prior to its university status, Glendon was a residence for the Edward R. Wood family. The Wood family estate was entrusted to York University, and since then, many students living on the campus have reported apparitions of a lady wearing white wandering the garden. It is also said this same mysterious woman has appeared in photographs taken in the garden. Students speculate that maybe a woman from the Wood family has taken refuge on the grounds, most likely Wood’s wife Euphemia, who died in 1950. 7) The Old Don Jail The controversial old Don Jail, in the Broadview Avenue and Gerrard Street area, was completed in 1864 and is a site infamously known for its 34 hangings. The Don Jail served as the holding point for both male and female prisoners and was the last site where executions took place in Canada after capital punishment was abolished. Over the years there have been tales of spirits occupying the premises. One tale circulating is about ‘The Lady of the Don,’ a former inmate from the 1890s who hung herself with bed sheets. Several guards have reported seeing an angry, ghostly figure with blond hair wandering the main rotunda area. WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE HAUNT?

Choice for mayor highlights income divide in Toronto John Tory says his challenge will be to create a united city MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com Prosperous, comfortable Toronto chose John Tory as its mayor. Poorer and struggling Toronto stuck with the Fords. That’s what Monday’s votes suggested, anyway, when they were counted and the wards where each candidate did best were mapped. In his first press conference Tuesday as mayor elect, Tory said it will be his challenge to do what he promised during the long campaign: turn Toronto into a united city. He’d accept the task, he said, of convincing those residents who feel alienated from city hall to look at Toronto as one, undivided place.

He didn’t agree that 60 per cent of its citizens who voted didn’t want him as their mayor, saying he got a solid percentage of the vote in all areas of the city. “I prefer to look at the glass as half-full,” said Tory, who later on Tuesday announced a Transition Advisory Council of citizens from across the city to look at traffic congestion, transportation planning and housing before the new council term begins in December. Tory was right in that his support greatly improved on what George Smitherman – another ex-provincial politician seeking the mayor’s chair – managed against Rob Ford in 2010. In c o n c e d i n g d e f e a t Monday, the mayor’s brother Doug recalled that together the brothers had “changed the political landscape in Toronto.” That was true when Rob won with 47 per cent of the vote, taking every ward outside downtown and midtown.

In that moment, it looked like the amalgamated Toronto – six cities forced to merge in 1998 – was split along strictly urban-suburban lines, rather than by the economic divisions deepening between the city’s richer and poorer areas. This time, though, Ford Nation didn’t capture south Etobicoke, or anything in North York around that f o r m e r c i t y ’s b o o m i n g centre. The Ford brand won over almost all of Scarborough, where the brothers had promised new subway lines, but not as overwhelmingly as they did in 2010. Tory, generally speaking, did best in the city’s higherincome areas. Ford excelled only in his north Etobicoke home base and areas away from Toronto’s wealthy core and waterfront. Olivia Chow, the thirdplace candidate, was strongest in her old Trinity-Spadina constituency, and in Parkdale, Davenport and Riverdale.

“We are not one Toronto. That is a myth,” said Ari Goldkind, a distance fourthplace finisher who said this situation would continue until the city’s administration was willing to invest to help those who are struggling. Until then, Goldkind said, we’ll remain a “city of enclaves” unwilling to mix with people who are different. The city has, however, worked with social agencies and the province for almost a decade to reverse the inequities found in many of its suburban neighbourhoods. Years of community hubbuilding and organizing have left some results but also mixed feelings in many of these designated ‘priority’ areas in Scarborough, in York and on the city’s northern fringes: Doug Ford seemed to score well in most. Just as striking as the leadership shift from the Fords to

* Only while supplies last

n

Tory is the fact that council incumbents seemed so easily to win across the city, with several racking up 80 or more per cent of the vote. This includes mid-towner Josh Matlow and ScarboroughAgincourt’s Norm Kelly who both got 86 per cent, but many other veteran incumbents are likely to start the term feeling their positions are safe even if they oppose Tory’s agenda. It was rare to see incumbents win without the lion’s share in their wards, though Frank Di Giorgio was returned in his York South-Weston district with 28 per cent, and Ron Moeser, facing several strong challengers, won in Scarborough East with 25 per cent. John Parker in Don Valley West was the only incumbent to fall, losing a rematch to the Tory-endorsed Jon Burnside.

Those who the Fords wanted to punish in Monday’s vote went unpunished. Paul Ainslie, whose constituents in Scarborough East were robocalled by the mayor after he voted against the Scarborough subway extension, won in a walk, with 74 per cent. The Fords, gathered in their mother Diane’s basement after polls closed, had also hoped their ally Gus Cusimano, whom they also supported in 2010, would this time capture Maria Augimeri’s York Centre ward. “C’mon,” the mayor said, seconds before the first results, shown on television, confirmed Augimeri would win. She took about 43 per cent, while Cusimano – close behind in 2010 – this time had 28, and Anthony Fernando, another candidate, had 23. “They split the vote,” a disappointed Doug Ford observed.

Transition to new council will take a month New mayor and council will not officially start term of office until Dec. 1 DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com

N

ow that the votes are counted and Toronto has a new mayor, that’ll be it for the Rob Ford era at city hall. Right? Well, not quite. For more than a month following the municipal vote Monday, Ford will continue to be mayor of Toronto and the 44 councillors who voted to remove many of his powers in 2013 will continue to hold office and, if they choose, come to work in their offices at city hall. In fact, the mayor or a majority of those councillors could even call a council meeting in the event of an emergency, or a whim. “In essence, the current members of council continue to be members until Nov. 30,” said Winnie Li, Toronto’s director of council support services. “Their term doesn’t end until that date. So incoming members, they come in Dec. 1.” The transitional period gives a mayor and council members who are surrendering their offices time to clean up their files and determine which, if any, can be passed on to their successors. Newly elected councillors, meanwhile, will have a busy month. To begin with, they will have to go to city council school. Li said city clerk staff have prepared three sessions. “There will be one about the operations: about their staff and budgets and what they have to spend,” she said. “Then there is one about the code of conduct and conflict of interest rules, and then there’s one about the procedures – decision making, how it works and how the budgets work.” As this transpires, the new councillors will be making decisions about hiring staff, deciding which of the available offices at city hall they will occupy, and also

likely meeting with the mayorelect John Tory to discuss their roles in the upcoming administration. The mayor, meanwhile, will have a more complicated job.

Li said the city will likely establish an interim office for Tory somewhere in Toronto City Hall. There, the mayor – usually with aid of a transition team of advisors – will decide on not only

his office staff, but also come up with a roster for the new, mayorappointed executive committee, which will also decide the chairs of the various standing committees.

While this is going on, Tory and city staff will begin planning for the inaugural council meeting Dec. 2. The meeting begins with a ceremony, the council chamber usually packed with family and guests of the new council and the mayor, and an address by a special guest. With the exception of 2010, when newly elected Rob Ford invited sports commentator Don Cherry, that special guest has been former provincial cabinet minister Roy McMurtry. On the second day of council, the new councillors will appoint a striking committee to consider the makeup of council’s standing committees, and then the four community councils will meet to select chairs. The striking committee will meet immediately following that brief meeting, and bring back recommendations to full council that afternoon. And then, the wait will be over, and the 2014 to 2018 term of Toronto council will get down to business, with meetings of community councils, executive committee and full council all taking place in December.

Construction of Eglinton Crosstown light-rail line moves eastward RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com Eglinton Crosstown LRT construction has come to the intersection of Bathurst Street and Eglinton Avenue West. Last week, Metrolinx announced east and west traffic medians along Eglinton Avenue will be temporarily

removed so construction of headwalls – concrete structures that serve as the frames for the line’s future underground stations – can begin. Traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction from Chiltern Hill Road to Old Forest Hill Road, but left turns will still be allowed at the Bathurst and Eglinton intersection.

Also planned for the work, which is expected to last through the winter, is the erection of a “grout plant” on residential Peveril Hill Road North, located southwest of the intersection, from where construction crews will pump tonnes of liquid concrete to the station headwalls site. While that happens, there will be no access to Eglinton via the road.

Construction crews are expected to work at the intersection for seven days a week between 7 a.m. and 11 p.m., and there could be earlier or later closures depending on the pace of the work. Metrolinx says residents should expect noise and vibration from the construction. Metrolinx is also promising traffic measures around the headwall site,

as well as to separate pedestrian crossings from the construction via a chain link fence. TTC bus stops in the area will also be relocated to safer areas. The Crosstown is the city’s first dedicated light rail line under construction and is scheduled to open for service on and under Eglinton in 2020.

project up for transit award wLRT Metrolinx’s Eglinton Crosstown LRT project is in the running for a prestigious transit infrastructure award to be handed out this week. The Crosstown is one of five North American project plans nominated for Strategic Project of the Year to be announced during this year’s CG/LA Infrastructure Forum in Washington, D.C. A press release for the event states the award is given to the project with the highest potential to create a “quantum leap” when it comes to improving a region or county’s productivity. The forum, which will be attended by such luminaries as U.S. Vice-President Joe Biden, takes place Oct. 28 to 30. Visit www.cg-la. com TTC explainer video on priority seating The TTC has released another online explainer video, this time on the proper use of priority seating.

w

rahul gupta TO in TRANSIT Earlier this year, the TTC began installing blue seats on its transit vehicles as a way to further highlight their intended use by mobility-challenged, seniors and pregnant riders. But as TTC CEO Andy Byford says in the video, while TTC vehicle operators can ask an able-bodied rider to vacate a priority seat they can’t force anyone from doing so. Riders could still be fined by transit enforcement officers. To view the video, visit the TTC’s YouTube channel via www.youtube.com charged with reckless driving wDriver A TTC bus driver is facing reckless driving charges over the death of a pedestrian on Lawrence Avenue West. A 65-year-old woman was struck and killed by a TTC bus Saturday, Oct. 11 while trying to cross at the

intersection of Lawrence and Allen Road. Toronto police have laid three charges, including careless driving, against the 34-year-old driver. The man, who has not been named, is scheduled to appear in court Nov. 20. Subway closures coming Two major subway closures are scheduled for the beginning of November, starting this weekend. From Nov. 1 to 2, the Yonge line is closed in both directions from Bloor to Eglinton stations for signal and track work. Anyone seeking to travel between the stations will have to make use of a TTC shuttle bus service. The closure is also in effect next weekend, from Nov. 8 to 9. Service will resume as of Monday morning for both weekend closures. Visit www.ttc.ca for more information.

The Gentlemen’s Expo will appeal to the modern man Nov. 14 to 16 at Metro Toronto Convention Centre mark a. cadiz mcadiz@insidetoronto.com The Gentlemen’s Expo will open its doors to the gentlemen and gentlewomen of the city at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre Nov. 14 to 16. Entering its second year, the expo has broadened its vision of manliness to a

more refined status. Co-founder Settimio Coscarella thinks the time is right for a show that appeals to today’s modern man. “In the last 10 years men’s tastes have definitely changed,” Coscarella said. “We wanted to create a show that provides content that guys could be proud of, putting together the best ensemble of brands and experiences we can so the guys of Toronto could have a

show to call their own.” The expo, of which insidetoronto.com is the presenting sponsor, will be spread over 100,000 square feet at the convention centre and will cater to a range of men’s interests from tasting some of the best craft beer in the city to browsing the latest in fashion. With a solid background in home design, custom furniture design and fabrication, Damon Snider has identified a niche market for his services.

He falls into the modern category himself, and his company Dude Living Refined is a business that specializes in interior design for men. “I focus on refining a guy’s space with masculine flair which are women-approved,” Snider said. “You want the designer to reflect your character.” Snider said his design services appeal to men entering their late 20s and early 30s who go out less and prefer to entertain

their friends and family at home instead. “Often these guys want to spend more money on their home and need help and advice to decorate their space,” he said. At the expo, Snider will demonstrate how to build a mobile bar cart from scratch by “up-cyling” older material. The Gentlemen’s Expo will pack a celebrity punch with three-time UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St-Pierre, former Toronto Maple Leaf Gary

Roberts and ex-Dragon’s Den personality Bruce Coxon making appearances. “It’s a home for inspiring and established gentleman everywhere,” Coscarella said. “This year we want to create a much bigger experience for everyone and that’s including women who are also welcome to the show.”

Toronto firefighters stand atop a fire truck on the Conlins Road overpass at Hwy. 401 Friday evening to pay their respects as the motorcade bringing Canadian soldier Cpl. Nathan Cirillo to his Hamilton home travelled along the Highway of Heroes. Cirillo was shot Wednesday, Oct. 22, while on honour guard duty at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. Hundreds gathered on the highway overpasses through Scarborough as Cirillo’s procession passed.

Residents pay respects to Cpl. Nathan Cirillo Hundreds of people lined highway overpasses along the 401 through Scarborough Friday to pay their respects to Canadian soldier Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, 24, who was shot and killed last Wednesday while on honour guard duty at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. In a scene sadly familiar to many who had stood on the overpasses for the repatriation processions for Canadian soldiers killed in Afghanistan, large crowds gathered in tribute along the Highway of Heroes – many holding Canadian flags. On Conlins Road, hundreds gathered including Toronto firefighters standing on a truck with lights flashing. Below, cars were stopped on the shoulders of both the westbound and eastbound lanes of the highway as motorists got out of their vehicles and stood by the side of the highway. Wayne Powell, president of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 258 in Highland Creek,

It just shows the respect that Canadians have for our armed forces and the job they do. – Wayne Powell, president Royal Canadian Legion Branch 258

said the large turnout showed how proud Canadians are of our soldiers and how much people wanted to show support to Cirillo’s family. “The turnout has been phenomenal,” said Powell. “Last count I saw 45 cars parked on the north shoulder and I couldn’t even count the cars in the eastbound lanes. It just shows the respect that Canadians have for our armed forces and the job they do.” The procession for Cirillo began early Friday afternoon in Ottawa and crossed into Scarborough at Port Union Road after 6 p.m. The scene at every overpass through Toronto was the same with large crowds on the bridges

and cars stopped on both sides of the highway. On the Conlins Road bridge, some sang O Canada as the hearse carrying Cirillo to his home in Hamilton approached. The procession’s route went through Toronto along Hwy. 401 then north on Hwy. 404 where it then went onto 407 heading west towards Cirillo’s hometown. Scarborough resident Amorell N’Daw, who lives in the neighbourhood close by the Conlins Road bridge, said it was important that she and her family came to the overpass. “As Canadians we’re all shocked and saddened at the despicable incident in our nation’s capital. We are one Canadian family and we felt that we needed to show our respect and thanks to the corporal,” she said, while standing with her sons Ibrahim, Amari, Daniel and husband Fode.

John Tory celebrates winning the Toronto mayoral race Monday night at the Liberty Grand.

Tory ready to get to work DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com John Tory spent his first day as Toronto’s mayor-elect gathering a stack of binders explaining his new roles and talking with reporters as storm clouds rolled over Nathan Phillips Square. “It’s when you sit down with the city manager and many others, you get seized of the responsibility you have,” said Tory Tuesday as he began a lengthy question-and-answer session with reporters the morning after voters asked him to be the successor to Mayor Rob Ford. “You know I feel a strong sense of public service that goes with being in this job. As you see the roster of issues out there, you understand its importance.” Tory won’t take office for more than a month, but after taking a couple of days off, he will get down to the business of setting up his office, choosing his executive committee and ordering the agenda for the coming months. He also announced his transition team leader, former city councillor Case Ootes, who will assemble other advisors and help Tory hit the ground running when he’s sworn in Dec. 1. Ootes will be releasing a work plan for the transition team – which will be working out of temporary offices in City Hall – this week. Tory insisted he had not spoken to any councillors as to their role in

Voters want their elected officials to get down to work on the priorities that matter most to them. – Mayor-elect John Tory

the new council. But he said he hopes his opponents in the election – Karen Stintz, Olivia Chow, David Soknacki, Ari Goldkind and Doug Ford – will be able to take some role in fulfilling his agenda. And he said he hopes to be able to bring the city together throughout his mandate. “I think the one thing that I know more so than anything else is going to bring the city together is results,” he said. “If people see transit being built... jobs... their finances organized... they are going to have more confidence in one Toronto.” It was less than 24 hours earlier that Tory won the mayoralty with more than 40 per cent of the vote. He was trailed by Councillor Doug Ford and former MP Olivia Chow, the one-time front-runner who finished a distant third. Tory and Ford seemed locked in a race with as few as 12,000 votes between them at one point and around 20,000 at other times. There was no nailbiting in the hall at the Liberty Grand when Tory emerged, following an upbeat, wellproduced campaign video apparently made for the event. “Tonight, voters have sent a mes-

sage that is abundantly clear,” Tory said. “Voters want their elected officials to get down to work on the priorities that matter most to them...better transit, more jobs, an end to the gridlock that is choking our streets. And the electorate has spoken on one other issue: Torontonians want to see an end to the division that has paralyzed city hall in the last few years. And to all of that, I say: Toronto, I hear you. I hear you loud and clear.” Tory’s campaign began early in 2014, initially focusing on his own leadership credentials and a pledge to change the tone at city hall from the “circus” surrounding Rob Ford’s drug abuse scandals. But he soon drew focus to an ambitious public transit initiative, dubbed SmartTrack, that would use soon-to-be-electrified GO train lines to provide frequent surface rail transit through Scarborough and the downtown to Etobicoke. The $8-billion plan’s financing plan – which would make use of tax increment financing on development that would result in nodes near the downtown core – drew fire from both Chow and Doug Ford as too high-risk. Voters were unswayed, however, accepting Tory’s faith that the city’s economy and growth projections would ensure enough additional tax revenue to pay for the plan.

Elizabeth Dowdeswell, left, received the first poppy of this year’s poppy campaign from the Royal Canadian Legion’s provinicial president of Ontario command Bruce Julian last Wednesday at Queen’s Park. As a representative of the Queen, the lieutenant-governor traditionally receives the first poppy to mark the beginning of the remembrance period in the annual poppy campaign that runs from Friday, Oct. 31 to Remembrance Day on Nov. 11. ‘This is probably the most important period we have during the year,’ Julian said during the presentation. ‘It’s when our thoughts turn to those who have gone before and are still serving but have paid the supreme sacrifice to serve and protect our freedoms.’

Street art decorates underpass at Warden and St. Clair ALI RAZA araza@insidetoronto.com Two murals were unveiled with a ribbon cutting at Warden and St. Clair avenues last week. The artwork decorates the underpass below the TTC subway tracks as part of a collaboration between the city-led art program StreetARToronto, not-for-profit arts organization Mural Routes, local historians and Ward 35 Scarborough Southwest Councillor Michelle Berardinetti. “StreetARTToronto started in 2010 with the goal to revitalize communities through street art,” said Kristina Hausmanis, project lead for StreetARToronto. “We worked with local historians, the councillor, mural routes and artists to make it all happen.” The move to cover the

A mural commemorating General Engineering Company of Canada plant workers during the Second World War was unveiled recently at the underpass near Warden Avenue and St. Clair Avenue.

underpass with street art is one of five programs this year from StreetARToronto as part of an underpass revitalization program. With the help of local historians, the collabora-

tion identified important historical features of Scarborough to illustrate through the murals. Montreal-based street artist Omen was chosen from a short list of artists to

paint the murals. Omen’s 17 years of experience have taken him from Halifax to Dubai. “His design was dramatic,” Hausmanis said. “He conveyed all the ele-

ments with his ability to capture emotion through faces.” Funding was provided by the City of Toronto this summer. Historians Barbara Dickson, Rick

Schofield and John Everest provided insight to the area’s past. In this case, the murals highlight the female workers of the former General Engineering Company of Ontario (GECO) munitions plant during the Second World War. They also portray the establishment of Scarborough Junction when, in 1873, a second rail line and commercial hub was built in the area, including Everest & Sons’ General store. Mural Routes is a notfor-profit arts organization focused on creating, developing and promoting public wall art. Its artistic director, Karin Eaton, cut the ribbon with Hausmanis, Berardinetti and Omen.

Crawford wins second term in Ward 36 De Baeremaker wins again in Ward 38 DANIELLE MCKEGNEY scm@insidetoronto.com In Ward 36 Scarborough Southwest, Councillor Gary Crawford easily won re-election Monday night, defeating his six challengers. In a repeat of 2010’s finish Crawford finished first with challenger Robert Spencer coming in second. The results weren’t as close, though, with Crawford’s experience and name recognition earning him 54 per cent of the vote compared to Spencer’s 31 per cent. Crawford won by just 422 votes in 2010.“I am absolutely honored that Ward 36 re-elected me as their city councillor,” he said. “It’s been my privilege to serve you for the last four years and it’s my

honour to serve you for the next four.” Crawford celebrated with a jubilant group of supporters at the Tara Inn on Kingston Road in the lakeside ward. He took a victory lap where he received handshakes and hugs. Spencer was on hand for the celebration and offered his congratulations and good luck to the now two-term councillor. Crawford thanked his competitors for putting their name forward for public office. “I want to thank and congratulate you all,” he said. “We are going to work to move Ward 36 forward.” He also took a moment to congratulate incoming mayor John Tory, who he has known

for some time. He shared he’d already had discussions with the mayor-elect about his desire to be a part of arts and culture at city hall. “I want to make a difference on that front city-wide. I’ve had discussions with John about that and I’m confident I’ll be able to continue on that file making a difference,” he said. Also running in Ward 36 were Ed Green, Robert McDermott, Masihullah Mohebzada, Andre Musters and Joy Robertson. Christian Tobin dropped out of the race Oct. 23 and threw his name behind Spencer, though his name stayed on the ballot.

Glenn De Baeremaeker said residents in Scarborough Centre’s Ward 38 had two main requests when he knocked on their doors during the election campaign: get the subway built and fix our roads. “So I think I have some pretty firm marching orders,” he said. “It’s that simple. The people aren’t asking for big complicated things.” De Baeremaeker was reelected by a landslide Monday night, garnering 13,626 votes (70 per cent). Second place went to David Thomas with 1,552 votes (eight per cent); Ganga Sasthrigal finished third with 662 votes (three per cent). There were eight other candidates running: John

Lewis (642 votes), Kevin Winson (567 votes), Theodore Rueckert (550 votes), Theo Kalafatis (483 votes), Justin Reid (463 votes), Aysha Sidiq (460 votes), Rajesh Shah (405 votes) and Tushar Shah (185 votes). “There were two main issues in my ward. One was subways, subways, subways; the other was roads, roads, roads,” De Baeremaeker said. But not all candidates supported subways. Kalafatis and Winson were among those favouring an LRT. Other issues in the ward included traffic congestion, the revitalization of the Scarborough downtown core and property standards. “We have some problems

with absentee landlords who aren’t maintaining their properties properly,” De Baeremaeker said. wins third term in Ward 41 wLee

Incumbent Chin Lee was re-elected on Monday night beating four other candidates vying for the Ward 41 Scarborough-Rouge River council seat. Lee was first elected to council in 2006. On Monday, he notched 52.4 per cent to second place finisher Cynthia Lai’s 22.9 per cent. Other candidates running for council in Ward 41 were John Kladitis, Sivavathani Prabaharan and Sandeep Srivastava.

Off to a hot start This might be the first year in Tyler Toffoli’s professional career, he won’t have to book a trip to Manchester. Following Tuesday night’s action, the Scarborough native, who started out playing hockey in the Scarborough Hockey Association and attended Birchmount Park Collegiate, was tied for third in scoring in the National Hockey League with 13 points (5 goals, 8 assists) in nine games. After helping the Los Angeles Kings win the Stanley Cup last season he’s off to a hot start. And that should mean he won’t have to book a trip to the team’s American Hockey League affiliate (the Manchester Monarchs) for whom he has suited up, in various stints, in each of the previous three seasons.

The college’s brand new Scarborough campus is certain to help many more as triOS Chairman and CEO, Frank Gerencser, explains.

“Our new campus on Kennedy Road is larger and more welcoming than our previous location where we had been for about 3 years and basically outgrew. Our new space easily accommodates our current student population and will allow us to grow in size and support the Scarborough community. We’re very excited about it and the opportunities it presents.” A formal grand re-opening took place October 8th with several key players in attendance including city representatives, politicians, staff and students. “The feedback we’ve received so far is excellent. Not only is it a beautiful campus central to the city, it’s very convenient, it’s easily accessible by public transit and there’s plenty of parking.”

��

��������������������

A spacious student common area and numerous classrooms house the college’s five faculties – business, technology, healthcare, law and supply chain. “In less than a year, students can be on their way to a new career as opposed to taking two to four years in the public system. And because our students range from 18 to 65 years of age (the average age is 33), most adults are very comfortable here. They feel right at home,” said Gerencser.
