Scarborough subway a ‘done deal’ Feds earmark $660 million for line to Sheppard DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com A subway in Scarborough is “a done deal,” federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty told reporters in Scarborough yesterday morning. “It’s a done deal,” said Flaherty as he announced $660 million in federal funding for a Scarborough subway to replace the decrepit Scarborough Rapid Transit line. “It will create many, many jobs, economic activity, growth and prosperity.” Flaherty was joined by Mayor Rob Ford at the announcement of the federal funding, which was first revealed Sunday in an event with Flaherty and Prime Minister Stephen Harper in Etobicoke. Yesterday, the show came to Scarborough’s Don Montgomery Community Centre, just east of the current end of the Bloor-Danforth subway line at Kennedy station. The federal funding would be for a line that extended all the way north to Sheppard Avenue, travelling under McCowan Road. That is in contrast to the

Federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty announces funding to extend the Bloor-Danforth subway line northeast to Sheppard Avenue and McCowan Road yesterday morning at the Don Montgomery Community Centre.

$1.4 billion line that Ontario Transportation Minister Glenn Murray has proposed, which would have been entirely funded by the provincial government but would end at the Scarborough Town Centre. Flaherty said he hoped that the province would co-operate with the realignment made more possible by the federal contribution, and supported by Toronto Council.

“I would hope the province would be co-operative with the governments in Toronto,” he said. “Our money’s for real, it’s in our fiscal framework, we have budgeted this money and it will flow. We keep our commitments. We are a majority government. We will be there, we will pay the money.” Mayor Ford spoke at the announcement but would not

take questions. He called this “a truly, truly historic day for Toronto.” “We now have all three levels of government at the table to build the subways that Scarborough has been waiting for for a long, long time,” said Ford, thanking the federal government and also “the many thousands and thousands of residents in the City of Toronto >>>COUNCILLORS, page 5

Final Tuesday edition of The Mirror This is the final Tuesday you’ll receive a Scarborough Mirror. “As people consume their news and information differently, we must change with the times too,” said Metroland Media Toronto general manager Marg Middleton. The move to providing one newspaper every Thursday, will be matched by renewed emphasis on the www.scarboroughmirror.com and www. insidetoronto.com websites. “We’ve had terrific growth of users and traffic on our website during the past year. Our readership is telling us it’s time to build on our successful web strategy,” said editor-in-chief Peter Haggert. In the spring, Metroland Media Toronto converted your Friday Scarborough Mirror into a Tuesday newspaper. With that, new features were added to the newspaper, accompanied by a new design and Twitter and Facebook platforms. “Those newspaper features will become part of the Thursday newspaper beginning next week. We’ve received good reader response – and that tells us how important they’ve become to telling the story of the community,” said Haggert. >>>WEBSITE, page 5

I came to CDNC with Sciatica, which had been my problem for the last 25 years. When I read about this treatment and how it has helped so many other people with the same problem I had hope, and I was not disappointed. After only a few treatments, I started sleeping & walking better. Now I have finished all my treatments and looking forward to spend time with my family. - T. Thevamanimohan

I came into the clinic with upper & lower back pain & excruciating pain in my legs from Sciatica… I had been to see physiotherapists, chiropractors, had laser treatments, but I was still in pain… It became impossible to cope with normal household activities and gardening which I enjoy, after 10 treatment, I have unbelievable mobility and flexibility and I am able to walk from longer periods of time with out pain. I have recommended this treatment and clinic to family and friends and encourage anyone in pain to try this non invasive, drug free treatment for affordable charges. - Evelyn Lue

I had suffered from chronic back pain for the past 5 years. I was diagnosed with Sciatica. This made it difficult to continue with my active lifestyle. I heard about Decompression from a colleague decided to come for a free consultation and started treatment I am now much more mobile and able to undertake activities I had avoided because they caused too much pain. I enjoy a pain free lifestyle now. Thanks CDNC - Glen Tarver

I have suffered with neck and shoulder pain for many years. My job requires me to be quick and active. I was always taking pain pills and suffering side effects. A co-worker showed me an ad in the Toronto Star of CDNC I thought I would try it. After just 8 treatments I was 100% better! I now come in every month or so for a tune up that is all. I enjoy traveling and plane rides were hard. Plane rides do not bother me anymore like they used to Now,I can take long flights comfortably.

Anti-gang program helps local youth MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com

the Agincourt Community Services Association, the agency that will run the program from the hub. On July 10, James announced $507,000 to extend GangBusters, another ACSA-led program using multi-systemic therapy in Scarborough, for a year.

Local MP Roxanne James got some federal crime-fighting responsibilities and a new public safety program for her Scarborough Centre riding on the same day. Prime Minister Stephen Harper named James parliamentary secretary for public safety on Thursday.

National strategy

TAAGS PROGRAM Hours later, on a visit to the Dorset Park Hub in Scarborough, Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney said that was appropriate. “It’s the core of her involvement in politics,” said Blaney, noting James, since being elected in 2011, successfully proposed a private members’ bill to stop “frivolous complaints” by prisoners. James’ bill changed the Corrections and Conditional Release Act, and received royal ascent in March. “I promised her we would keep her very busy” in her new role, Blaney said. Blaney and James were at the Kennedy Road building to announce Taking Action Against Gangs in Scarborough ( TAAGS), for which their Conservative government will

pay $3.4 million over five years to help 540 young people, between ages 12 to 18 and displaying “anti-social high-

risk behaviours,” stay away from crime. The program will use close supervision, 24-hour support and what is

called multi-systemic therapy to turn around youth that are the hardest to reach, said Lee Soda, executive director of

TAAGS, which will replace the old program, is apparently similar but will concentrate less on working with the young person’s family and friends than GangBusters does. Blaney also visited Scadding Court Community Centre in the downtown Toronto community of Alexandra Park to announce $487,000 over three years for the local Catalyst Program, which the government said “helps to reduce re-offending amongst youth” between ages 16 and 25. All three initiatives are funded under the National Crime Prevention Strategy. “These projects are great,” said Blaney, who called them “the forefront of crime prevention.”

‘Scarberia’ reference by PC leader irks local Liberal MPPs MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com Apologize for calling our constituents “Scarberians,” Scarborough’s six MPPs told Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak after heated exchanges at Queen’s Park about the proposed Bloor-Danforth subway extension. One word of Hudak’s drew the most attention: he accused the government last week of treating Scarborough as “Scarberia.” Using the word “is an insult to every person in” Scarborough, responded Scarborough Centre MPP Brad Duguid, who said Hudak owes the people of Scarborough an apology. The six Scarborough MPPs,

all Liberals, issued a statement criticizing Hudak for “slurs” against Scarborough. “Hudak referred to Scarborough residents as ‘Scarberians,’” it said. If Wikipedia can be believed, the word Scarberia a play on “Siberia” because the former City of Scarborough was far from Toronto’s downtown - “originated sometime in the 1960s and has remained a source of contention ever since.” Today, it’s use is “simply n o t a c c e p t a b l e ,” s a i d Scarborough-Agincourt MPP Soo Wong in an interview Thursday. “Scarberia is a slur; it’s a derogatory term.” Wong said Hudak used the word twice Wednesday, once outside the legislature in a media scrum, once inside.

She also objected to Hudak referring, during the same day, to the Scarborough MPPs as “field mice.” Etobicoke-Lakeshore MPP Doug Holyday, freshly elected as a Progressive Conservative, said Hudak was using “Scarberia” to describe the way Liberals had treated Scarborough, as if it was “some hinterland out there that wasn’t deserving full attention.” The Liberals “didn’t seem to care about what the people of Scarborough wanted (in a subway) until they got to the byelection” in ScarboroughGuildwood this summer, said Holyday, charging the twostop extension the government announced this month is a “shabby” one. “If anybody should apolo-

gize it should be them, for their treatment of the people of Scarborough,” he added, before calling the “Scarberia” controversy an “overblown” distraction from the real issue. Duguid said politicians of all levels of government are “playing politics” with the Scarborough subway extension, but Ontario’s Liberals are only government currently paying for one to be built. Calling it “Scarberia” runs counter to efforts to improve Scarborough’s image, Duguid said. It’s true people from Scarborough often use the word in a self-deprecating way, he added, but Hudak is “not an average Joe” and as a party leader should show more respect.

Not everyone was bothered by the word, however. “I’m from Scarborough. I used, and heard that term used all the time,” one Twitter user with the handle @CYYJCarol told Duguid. “No insult to me. Overreaction from you though.” John Del Grande, Toronto’s Ward 7 separate school trustee tweeted he was “a proud Scarberian.” Politicians have run afoul of Scarborough sensitivities before. During the 2011 federal election campaign, Bonnie Crombie, then a Liberal MP from Mississauga said, “I think you’re confusing us with Scarborough,” when asked by an interviewer about crime in her community. She later apologized.

Meeting on Eglinton LRT at library How w i l l t h e Eg l i n t o n Crosstown LRT ser vice improve community life? That’s the topic of an upocoming meeting presented in partnership by The Scarborough Mirror and Toronto Public Library. Amid all the debate about our transit system, one project is actually being built. In seven years the Eglinton Crosstown LRT will run from Mount Dennis in the west to Kennedy in the east. Join us for a discussion on how the big dig on Eglinton can become a catalyst for community life. The Oct. 3 session, featuring speakers and discussion how to capitalize on the opportunity, is from 6:30-8 p.m. at the multipurpose room of the Eglinton/Kennedy public library branch. “This is all about building strong communities,” said Scarborough Mirror editorin-chief Peter Haggert. “We’d like to explore just how this transportation system can increase the health and vibrancy of our community – but we need your input. We do hope you attend.” The Eglinton/Kennedy library is located at 2380 Eglinton Ave. E. Similar sessions will be held at Northern District public Library (Oct. 10) and Mount Dennis Public Library (Oct. 17.)

Charges laid after break-in Toronto police arrested two burglary suspects holding “a large quantity” of electronics, jewelry and cash Saturday afternoon near Middlefield Road and Finch Avenue, but a third man got away. At least three men tried to break into a home near Finch and Warden Avenue at 5:20 p.m., and three fitting a description later fled. Rutal Hankey, 32, of Toronto and Tashane Blair, 21, of Hamilton each face 29 charges stemming from area burglaries over the last few months, including 21 counts of break and enter.

Do not let transit funding become a missed opportunity

Write us

he latest level of government stepping up to the plate in the city’s transit baseball game is Stephen Harper’s federal Conservatives. With an official announcement yesterday, the feds are going to pony-up $660 million for transit in Toronto. This is great news; however, this does not solve the issues this city faces moving forward when it comes to transit - both in the way of funding and building. Nor does it seem to have diminished the one-upsmanship at all three levels of government. Whether it’s Mayor Rob Ford taking credit for allthings subway, provincial transport minister Glen our view Murray challenging the feds to put money on the table, or The one thing the federal government putmoney into the mix, it’s missing is true ting always a battle of who can come up on top. In the end, co-operation Toronto always seems to end up on the bottom. Cancelled plans, less-than-desired funding, council bickering; it’s always something. Yesterday’s federal funding would be for a BloorDanforth subway line extension north to Sheppard Avenue, travelling under McCowan Road, a plan supported by Toronto Council. Hopefully the federal money will help complete the recently announced $1.4 billion in funding from the provincial government, which announced it would pay for a subway to replace the existing Scarborough Rapid Transit. The one thing missing is true, open co-operation – something that seems to evade government, with Mayor Ford the only person willing to speak on behalf of Torontonians to any level of government willing to listen to him. If we co-operate, this one thing - transit funding for Scarborough - could be the way forward for many issues, including infrastructure, but not without clarity - another missing commodity these days. The back and forth transit talks, which have gone on for decades, have to stop. Now that the city, province and the federal government are all ready to actually build new transit in the city, perhaps they can all get together and discuss how best to do just that. Now that the Scarborough RT has been taken care of, Mayor Ford said he will switch his attention to the Sheppard LRT, which he also wants to be a subway. And so the game continues. Hopefully, Toronto will come up on top.

You of all people should know that I wouldn’t have put it on Crosby’s site, it would have been on Phil Kessel’s. Anyhow, as I was about to say, my house league games are Saturday mornings. So, the question is, which one of you will be taking me each week?” Mom: “Funny you should ask. We were just about to resolve that when you walked in the room.

Kathy Scott remembered for hard work with local community services group To the editor: This letter is in tribute to Kathy Scott who worked for West Hill Community Services for many years. She died earlier this month after battling Lou Gehrig’s Disease for five years. Kathy Scott had a hard life growing up in Jamaica. She came to Canada many years ago and at the time she lived in social housing. When she arrived initially, St. Margaret in the Pines Church furnished her apartment. She was hired at West Hill Community Services under one of the Ontario Works Programs and the rest is history. She was a single mother with one child. She bought her own house about five years ago in Pickering and a week later she was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s Disease. It has been a long hard struggle for her over the past few years. It is difficult to understand how such a special person or anyone can suffer so much just when she had reached a comfortable state with her own house and her daughter grown and graduated from college. She was one of those special people who worked quietly behind the scenes at West Hill Community Services, with no thought of recognition for herself. She will be missed Margaret Baker

Councillors welcome federal funding >>>from page 1 that have spoken loud and clear. We have wanted subways, subways and more subways.” Ford ran in 2010 on the promise of building a subway along Sheppard Avenue. While no such project is funded or approved, he characterized yesterday’s subway announcement as an election promise fulfilled. Also in attendance at the event was TTC CEO Andy Byford and commission chair Karen Stintz, who had pushed for the subway along the line as opposed to the

approved LRT line at council this summer. Stintz had also supported along with the mayor a property tax surcharge to pay for the city’s share of the cost — or possibly the difference between the $1.8 billion the province had originally committed, and the $1.4 billion the province currently has on the table. “Council did approve a range of tax increases,” she said. “We did contemplate we might have to pay more if that’s what it takes to get the subway built.” She said she doubted that

there would be a big debate at council when the time comes to impose the tax increase. “Council overwhelmingly approved they wanted a subway if certain conditions were met. I don’t think it will be contentious,” she said. Local councillors Glenn De Baeremaeker and Michelle Berardinetti were also on hand, and said that Scarborough residents would likely get behind a tax increase. “That was the reason the vehicle registration tax didn’t work because it went into general revenue,” said Berardinetti. “This will

go to the subway extension, and residents will see that it’s very concrete.” De Baeremaeker said the subway would in general improve the lot of Scarborough residents in Toronto. “As Scarborough residents we have always felt left out from Toronto,” he said. “Now we have a subway that will poke north of Hwy. 401 to Sheppard...That will bring Scarborough into the family, finally.”

the mirror takes a closer look at nurse practitioner-led clinic

From left, Scarborough Rouge River MPP Bas Balkissoon, Scarborough-Agincourt MPP Soo Wong, and Ontario Minister of Health Deb Matthews tour the Hong Fook Connecting Health Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic in Scarborough during a celebration of the clinic’s recent opening.

Nurse practitioner clinic welcomed in Agincourt Health minister praises Hong Fook clinic for breaking down barriers to treatment MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com

ulie Lee had a family doctor, but getting appointments to see that doctor was harder and harder. That meant Lee, like many people in Scarborough, had to choose a walk-in clinic or an emergency room when she had an urgent medical problem. “I felt like an orphan,” she said in a statement read aloud in Agincourt recently. “As my generation grows older, today’s doctors are not equipped to handle the influx of Baby Boomers.” Fortunately, Lee found an alternative she believes is better, a new local clinic led by nurse practitioners and run by the Hong Fook

Mental Health Association. Lee’s experience at the Midland Avenue storefront clinic, which opened this summer in a busy plaza north of Finch Avenue, was more humane. ‘Feeling orphaned’ She said she wishes other people “feeling orphaned” would try the Hong Fook Connecting Health Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic, and added having such access to medical help earlier would have prevented some of the pain she carries today. The clinic’s name is a “mouthful” but worth repeating, said Katherine Wong, a psychiatric nurse who started volunteering with Hong Fook 30 years ago and is its current presi-

dent. At a ribbon-cutting ceremony, she said its integration of mental health and primary care under one roof is “a total package” which addresses gaps in health service. During its first month and a half, at least 50 per cent of the clinic’s clients were previously unattached but now have primary health care provider. “Together we have cause to be proud,” Wong told an audience that included many Hong Fook donors, volunteers and funders. The group started in 1982 because members felt patients from Toronto’s Asian communities weren’t getting proper mental health care because of language or other barriers. Hong Fook began with

hospital interpreters, then became cultural interpreters and later a provider of health care and family support, recalled Dr. Peter Chang, one of the group’s founders and its foundation chairperson. “We see this as another step in our evolution.” Ontario at its finest Provincial Health Minister Deb Matthews was on hand to congratulate Hong Fook for bringing barriers down. She called the clinic an example of “Ontario at our very finest.” Hong Fook’s is only the second clinic in Toronto led by NPs, who unlike other nurses are able to prescribe medications. Matthews said the ministry will see

whether clinics based this new model of care should be duplicated elsewhere in the city, but added patients “say we need more.” Scarborough-Agincourt MPP Soo Wong, who is a registered nurse, said Lee’s decision is part of the evidence the NP-led clinic concept works. “It’s very cost effective and it’s what the patient wants,” said the MPP, adding Ontario’s NP program had been “gutted” but the Liberal government brought it back. Poonam Sehgal, the clinic’s lead NP. said she signed on because she liked its holistic approach. Many new immigrants in the area don’t know where to look for a family doctor, she said. Besides a second NP, the clinic has other health pro-

fessionals including a social worker, a health promoter and a dietitian. Two more NPs and two RNs may be added soon. Staff between them speak Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Hindi and Punjabi, and there is a collaborating psychiatrist on site once a week who can offer patients referrals which may otherwise take weeks or months, Sehgal said. The clinic at 3280 Midland, Unit 22, can handle 3,200 residents who have no family doctor. Those who do have one must call Service Ontario to de-register and make the clinic their primary healthcare provider.

EVENT SPONSORS:

�� SAFETY CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED ◗CYCLING A new campaign aimed at educating cyclists on sharing congested road space with trucks has been launched. Stay Safe, Stay Back encourages cyclists to stay visible at all times to prevent deadly situations with large vehicles. Organized by the Share the Road Coalition whose membership includes the Canadian Automobile Association, the campaign’s purpose is creating awareness on cycling safety. For more info, visit www. sharetheroad.ca 16 PUBLIC MEETING ON GARDINER’S FUTURE ◗OCT.

Waterfront Toronto has announced the date for a second public meeting on the future of the Gardiner Expressway. Along with the city, the tri-governmental agency has resumed work studying options including repair, replacement or outright removal of the Gardiner’s elevated portion. That’s in addition to $500 million of city-approved repairs scheduled over the next

�� TO �� TRANSIT decade. The meeting is Oct. 16 at the Bram and Bluma Appel Salon inside Toronto Reference Library. For more info, visit www. gardinereast.ca EGLINTON WEST CONSTRUCTION ◗UPDATE:

Fall and winter road closures were announced by Metrolinx as construction of the Eglinton Crosstown light rail transit project continues. Work crews are busy relocating watermains and other utilities in preparation for tunnelling below Eglinton Avenue West., which continues east of Allen Road come mid-2014. IMPACTED BY STREETCAR WORK ◗BUSES

Last week TTC began diverting Leslieville buses to assist streetcar track work. The transit commission is set to begin constructing a service route along Leslie Street leading south to the future Leslie Barns

carhouse. Until December, buses on the 83 Jones route will bypass Leslie in both directions between Lake Shore Boulevard East and south of Mosley Street as work crews continue watermain removal. A SHOUT-OUT TO BRIEF, ERA ◗‘INTERLINING’

A new line of retro-subway gear pays homage to the short-lived “interlining” era of the TTC. The idea was to integrate both Yonge and newlyopened Bloor-Danforth via a junction of switching tracks, making it possible to board a train and ride it between lines without having to transfer. The plan was shelved in mere months. Now Astrid Idlewild has produced classic tee shirts for each of the 36 stations on the 1966 subway map (including now-defunct Lower Bay station). For more info, visit www. denizen.to Rahul Gupta is the Mirror’s transit reporter. His column appears weekly. Reach him on Twitter: @TOinTRANSIT

IN DEVELOPMENT CHARGES PLAN ◗HIKE Toronto’s executive committee sits for the first time since July today – with a full agenda, topped by a controversial plan to hike development charges by 90 per cent for residential development. The committee had originally seen the plan earlier this year, but over objections from the development industry asked city staff to consult further on the plan, which effectively ends the freeze on development charges imposed during the financial crisis of 2008. Now that consultation’s taken place and council will have to make the call. SESSION FOR WARD 3 HOPEFULS ◗INFORMATION

Tomorrow, Torontonians hoping to fill former Deputy Mayor Doug Holyday’s seat in Ward 3 Etobicoke Centre will be able to attend an information session from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Etobicoke Civic Centre. But the day before, the executive committee has a more immediate task: to find someone to chair

�� the employee and labour relations committee that Holyday left vacant when he was elected to Queen’s Park representing Etobicoke-Lakeshore. That one’s only for sitting members of council. GOVERNANCE TO BE DISCUSSED ◗ZOO

The executive committee will also debate what to do with the governance of the Toronto Zoo. The zoo board has suggested that it be turned into an arms-length, autonomous board overseeing the zoo in northeast Scarborough. But city staff have looked at the numbers and don’t think that will work. If the zoo’s to stay sustainable, it should stay right where it is, staff reported. BISHOP JETS ON AGENDA ◗BILLY

The tree that inspired the Maple Leaf Forever by Alexander Muir finally came down this summer during a big July wind and rainstorm. The executive committee will looki at ideas on what to do with the wood from the tree, which was gathered and preserved from the Leslieville street where it fell.

West Hill Atom AA boys take tourney title It was a long road to victory, but a worthwhile trip as the West Hill Atom AA Golden Hawks team recently wrapped up playing 12 games in 12 days by taking the championship of the Mississauga Early Bird Hockey Tournament. West Hill went a perfect 5-0 in the Mississauga tourney, winning the championship game 3-0 over North Toronto. West Hill opened the Mississauga tourney with back-to-back shutouts in the preliminary round by goalies Matthew Madden and Nicholas Foley. In the semifinals, West Hill beat the host Mississauga Terriers 3-0. The championship game saw West Hill and North Toronto both put their undefeated tourney records on the line. The game was an exciting affair, with the Golden Hawks scoring an empty net goal with less than a minute to go to secure their 3-0 win. Madden earned the shutout.

Battle for the ball

The West Hill Goldenhawk Atom AA were crowned the Mississauga Early Bird Hockey Tournament champs recently with a perfect 5-0 record.

Earlier, the West Hill boys had taken part in the Richmond Hill Early Bird tournament, reaching the finals before falling 3-2 to Orangeville. It was a long two weeks to start the hockey season, and the coaches would like to

thank the players and parents for their commitment and dedication. Te a m m e m b e r s a r e Matthew Madden, Nicholas Foley, James Dodds, Quinn Meek, Kwang Sheng Luu, Dylan Board, Garrett Park, C a m e r o n Fo t o p o u l o s ,
