Anger smouldered in parts of Scarborough after last-minute motions by councillors failed to save two local fire trucks last week. The City of Toronto is axing pumper trucks from stations on Lapsley Road and Lawrence Avenue East. Both were threatened by budget cuts before – and statistics say the two trucks at Station 215 on Lawrence are among the least busy in Toronto – but residents and firefighters still argue removing them will jeopardize safety. Scarborough East Councillor Ron Moeser, who unsuccessfully asked his colleagues to find funds for Pumper 215, stationed in his ward, said he senses people in the area remain concerned. “The day of the debate we had a fire

around the corner,” he said on Monday. “The pumper got there fairly quickly.” Fire Chief Jim Sales, Moeser said, has assured him a “roaming type of coverage” can get fire crews into the area very quickly, as has been done in other parts of the city. But Moeser said he wants to be on the safe side, adding a major fire in 2000 at USE Hickson, one of several chemical plants Station 215 covers, is still strong in residents’ minds. “The minutes count in these kinds of fires.” Ed Kennedy, president of the Toronto Professional Fire Fighters’ Association, lives in the station’s area and dismissed the promises from Sales. “I don’t care what he’s saying. He’s wrong,” said Kennedy, arguing there would no longer be any chance of getting 15 to 17 >>>CONCERNS, page 7

Police probe death of young girl at hotel ‘Tragic loss of young life’ mourned at Beverly Glen school in northwest Scarborough ANDREW PALAMARCHUK apalamarchuk@insidetoronto.com
The Toronto police homicide squad continues to investigate after a young Scarborough girl died Monday following an incident that also sent a boy and a man to hospital with serious injuries. Police said they were called to an address in Scarborough at about 4 p.m. As a result of an investigation, police went to the Howard Johnson hotel on Metropolitan Road near Warden Avenue and Hwy. 401 where they found a young girl in distress around 7 p.m. The girl was taken to a trauma centre via an emergency run and was later pronounced dead. The results of an autopsy performed Tuesday afternoon were inconclusive as to the child’s cause of death, police said. A man and a boy were also taken to hospital. Their injuries were serious but not life-threatening, a Toronto EMS spokesperson said.
Police are being tightlipped about the case. On Tuesday, Beverly Glen Junior Public School students were sent home with a letter informing parents of the girl’s death. “You may have heard about a very serious incident that occurred in the community last night,” principal Morag Killackey wrote. “It is with great sadness that we inform you that the incident resulted in the death of one of our students. Today has been a sombre day for all of us at our school as we mourn this tragic loss of a young life. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this very difficult time.” The letter said that on Wednesday specially trained staff will inform students of the death and that staff will offer support and counselling for as long as necessary. Police are asking anyone with information on this incident to call the homicide squad at 416-808-7400 or Crime Stoppers at 416-222TIPS (8477).

Poll finds more support for Scarborough LRT than subway Does Scarborough deserve a subway? Not according to a just-released research poll which shows a strong preference from residents there for light rail. The poll, released by Canadian research firm Leger shows 56 per cent of Scarborough residents want to revert back to a provincially funded $1.8 billion seven-stop LRT line cancelled in 2013. Just 44 per cent support the
city’s current plan to extend the Bloor-Danforth subway line further east at a cost of approximately $3.5 billion. Citywide, the support for a Scarborough LRT line stands at 61 per cent in favour with 39 per cent wanting a subway instead. “Based on the results of this poll we can definitely say Scarborough residents support LRTs over subways,” said Leger researcher Dave Scholz on Monday. He said Leger, after consulting with Calgary-based
pollster Janet Brown, a former Toronto resident, decided to conduct the poll as a way to test the waters of the ongoing transit debate. The results also show support for a Scarborough LRT is strongest within the former city of Toronto, with 76 per cent of registrants registering their favour. North Yorkbased respondents have the strongest support for the Scarborough subway - divided evenly with LRT supporters at 50 per cent. In contrast to a 2011 poll
conducted by Leger which showed 52 per cent of Toronto residents supported subways as the best transit option for Scarborough, Scholz said the 2014 survey takes into account issues such as price, time to complete construction, service coverage and impacts to property tax rates. “It gets back to the debate about tax increases needed to fund a subway and to a certain degree a desire to get going with building,” he said. “I think we’re starting to

see a shift now as people become more aware of the cost to build subways.” A total of 523 adult Toronto residents were chosen randomly to fill out the Leger survey online, from Friday Jan. 31 to Saturday. Feb. 1, following city council’s approval of a 0.5 per cent tax increase for this year to commence the city’s funding portion of the Scarborough subway project. Similar property tax increases are planned over the next three years to make up the city’s estimated $1

billion contribution to the project which will likely take 30 years to pay off. Paul Ainslie, the lone Scarborough city councillor to vote against the subway plan, said the poll’s findings were in line with what he’s heard from constituents who live in his ward of Scarborough East. He mentioned such initiatives as the Scarborough waterfront and better community resources to deal with bedbug infestations as being higher priorities than building a three-stop subway.

Cheering on our Olympians good for us all T
he Olympic Winter Games kick off tomorrow and we’ve got 221 athletes vying for gold in Sochi, Russia – our largest team to ever represent Canada at the winter event. Ontario is well represented with 64 athletes, the most of any province. Toronto has eight Olympians that we’re particularly keeping an eye on: Patrick Chan (figure skating), Dylan Moscovitch (figure skating), P.K. Subban (hockey), Natalie Spooner (hockey), Michael Lambert (snowboarding), Katie Tsuyuki (snowboarding), Lenny Valjas (cross country skiing) and Phil Brown (alpine skiing). If you weren’t already planning on it, there are a few good reasons to get on the Winter Games bandwagon for the next our view two and a half weeks. The Olympics truly are a unifyGames ing event. No matter your cultural your political views the ultimate background, or whether you actually know unifying event the difference between luge and skeleton, there’s nothing like a podium win to ignite the national pride in all of us. The Games strengthen our communities here at home. While our athletes are a world away, we can invite our neighbours, friends and family together to cheer them on. It’s a great excuse to reach out, or strike up a conversation with a stranger, to talk about the standings and how Canada’s team is faring. It serves as a great inspiration for our children. At a time when childhood obesity rates are critically high, introducing kids to the exciting world of the Winter Games is the perfect way to get them more active. It’s an especially welcome inspiration at this time, to be reminded that winter in Canada can be enjoyable if we embrace it and play in it. And children can always use more positive role models. Why not introduce them to our roster of Olympians and Paralympians who serve as examples of determination, focus, great teamwork and even how get back up after a failure. The Olympic Winter Games start with Friday’s opening ceremonies and continue until Feb. 23, with the Paralympic Games beginning March 7. Tune in, host a Winter Game-watching party, get the kids involved by having them cheer for their favourite athlete and then do something really Canadian – go play in the snow.

FAQs about the Winter Olympic Games
Q
I never miss the opening ceremonies. The trouble is they begin Friday at 11 a.m., EDT, when I’ll be stuck at work. The festivities last five hours. There’s no way I can spend that much time hunched over my phablet without drawing attention or throwing out my back. Any suggestions? A. I’m no doctor and I certainly don’t play one in a community newspaper, but it sure sounds like you’ve got a nasty bout of the flu coming on. Oh, say, around Thursday evening? Keep me posted. Q. I know all the official Olympic sponsors, except for one that just slips my mind for some reason. What is the Official Turkey of the Sochi Games again? A. Turks and Caicos vs. Trinidad and Tobago in men’s ice hockey. Q. Speaking of ice hockey, because CBC is the rights holder, Don Cherry is going to be one of the analysts in Russia. Does this mean
jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY Grapes is actually going to be calling hockey “ice hockey” just like everybody else? A. I wouldn’t count on it. Q. When the downhill is on and I ask my boyfriend what a particular move the skier is doing is called he’ll say, “Shush.” He says it over and over, too. I hate when he does that. It’s very irritating. Do you think I have a right to be upset? A. Absolutely. He should know better. What he should be saying is “Schuss.” Q. In figure skating, how long is the long program and how long is the short program? A. Uh, you mean how long is the long and how short is the short, right? Q. During the ice dancing if one of the couples accidentally slips into a samba during the mambo, what do
the judges do? A. Honestly, I’ve never paid attention to their reaction, because whenever I see it happen, I immediately leap up on the couch and break into the lambada. Q, My son, who’s in university, lives with me. He hates sports and knows nothing about any Winter Olympic events but says he wants to see the skeleton. His eyes light up when he says it, too. He assumes he’s going to be looking at skeletons all day. I’m in a real bind here. We only have one TV set. How on earth am I going to watch what I want to watch - curling? A. Easy peasy, mom. Since he’s never seen skeleton before, tell him you’re putting it on, but flip on curling instead. Just make sure to turn it on right before the last rock of the 10th end, just as the announcer is about say, “There are two lying in the house, one is buried, the other, lying next to it, is shot and the skip is holding the
hammer coming home.” Trust me, his eyes will really light up. Q. We’ve got Winter and Summer. How come no Fall or Spring Olympics? A. The way things are going with global warming, we could soon be down to just the Summer Games. Q. Lastly Jamie, I really hate to mix politics with sports, but what are the chances we see a Cuban Olympian defect right after Sochi? A. I’d say somewhere between slim and none, considering Cuba is not represented in Sochi and has yet to send a team to any Winter Games. However, if the weather doesn’t get any milder soon, I wouldn’t be surprised if a few of my co-workers end up defecting TO Cuba DURING the Games.

On balance and considering their limitations, Toronto council put together a proper so-so budget for 2014. It’s too bad that in the midst of all that mediocrity, the most vital debate in the 2014 budget deliberations didn’t quite happen. That’s not to say there wasn’t a lot of talk about the wisdom of slathering a 0.5 per cent property tax premium to pay for a portion of a multibillion-dollar subway going into Scarborough, because there was. St. Paul’s Councillor Josh Matlow provoked a couple of high-octane discussions about the property tax hike. On the first day of the budget deliberations, he tried to have the property tax hike itself voted on separately. He was thwarted by Speaker Frances Nunziata and council’s procedural rules, and then council supported her ruling on a razor-thin margin. And once that vote happened – it was done. When Matlow, an admitted nay-sayer on the Scarborough
����� ������ ��� ���� subway, moved a motion to put off spending any of the proceeds of that tax until 2015, Nunziata ruled that out of order on the legal advice that such a decision might open up the city to a legal challenge. To wit: you can’t say you’re levying a tax for a specific purpose then not spend it there. And so council, in their last budget debate before the election, went ahead and charged taxpayers for work on a subway that still may never be built. Now, it’s true council has supported the subway to replace the Scarborough RT, and when it voted to do so last year, Metrolinx agreed to build it. But there are impediments. For one thing, there are elections coming up: likely a provincial election, and a municipal election Oct. 27. And while there is a large contingent of voters in Scarborough who believe a
shorter subway line is a better fit than a longer light rail line, there’s every indication they’re not a majority. In Toronto, at least one serious mayoralty candidate, David Soknacki, has indicated that if elected in October he will steer the course back to light rail. Others may or may not follow suit, depending on how public opinion goes across the city over the coming months. Mayor Rob Ford will almost certainly continue to support subways, on the likely correct assumption that the minority of subway supporters will intersect almost perfectly with his own base. As to the province? Who knows what a fresh legislature will bring to the question of subways in Toronto. All in all, it seems an unwarranted risk, betting a 0.5 per cent 2014 property tax hike on the vagaries of election-year politicking.

A public meeting has been called for 7 p.m. tonight at Alvin Curling Public School, to discuss suggestions which may ease the congestion and prevent accidents. Something must be done, Scarborough-Rouge River Councillor Raymond Cho said. “I don’t know whether we can solve all the problems, but
w
before we take any action I want to let the community know,” he said. Residents of the Rougeville area had waited years for the school, which is at 50 Upper Rouge Tr. near Meadowvale Road and Sheppard Avenue East, but Cho said problems became apparent after it opened last month. Heavy snows make surrounding streets too narrow and the entrance to a turning circle where parents drop off children isn’t wide enough, he said. Bridlewood school celebrates 50 years Bridlewood Junior Public School is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The school opened its doors on 60 Bridlewood Blvd., in the Pharmacy Avenue and Huntingwood Drive area, in December of 1963 with 10 classrooms. The school’s official opening date is Feb. 27, 1964. Less than a year after the school opened, another six classrooms were added. This year the school has a number of events and activities planned to mark its 50th year, including an open house on

Womens Team Canada First Game is against Switzerland this Sat. Feb. 8th!
Concerns raised over local fire response times >>>from page 1 firefighters to the southeastern corner of Scarborough – as the station can manage now in eight minutes – because the area is isolated by the Rouge River and Lake Ontario. The department acknowledged the pumper was added to Station 215 as a second truck to cover the industrial area at the foot of Manse Road, but argued in notes on the budget the area “is undergoing a transformation that is seeing the major chemical companies leaving.” Local community advisors for the industry’s Community Alerting and Emergency Response (CAER) group, however, disputed this last month in a letter, saying the area will soon be home to a new plant employing 300 workers, while “remaining companies are strong, ongoing concerns.” “We do not wish to see lives and property put at more risk, which will surely happen if this specific budget proposal to remove a truck from Station 215 is carried forward,” the three residents warned. The department said Pumper 215 handles the 4th lowest number of calls in Toronto, and the station’s aerial truck “has the lowest call volume in the city.” It said the aerial would be “quinted,” coverting it to a hybrid truck which can also run as a pumper. But though a quinte can be either pumper or aerial, it cannot be both, and will be heavier and slower in response to fires, Kennedy said. D u r i n g l a s t w e e k ’s debate on the city budget, Scarborough-Rouge River Councillor Raymond Cho asked councillors to use $7.8 million from a reserve

In partnership with
It has kept Linda and Daniel Drown at home together, and last year Providence Healthcare’s adult day program got a $160,000-a-year boost to be spent on expanding its evening and weekend hours. Though her husband hasn’t stayed overnight yet, “I do sleep better at night, knowing this program is in place,” Linda Drown told staff and Ontario Health Minister Deb Matthews at the Scarborough rehabilitation hospital earlier this week. Daniel was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2000, and started showing cognitive changes right away. Later, he was recognized as having dementia. Like other caregivers, Drown took on more and more responsibilities; sometimes they seemed to increase “exponentially.” “Over time, I became tired,” she said. “It’s just a wearing away. It’s exhausting.” Daniel joined the program at Providence one day a week, then for another evening each
week. Drown found it wonderful: she could relax, and do things to look after her own health. The downtown Toronto resident also joined a support group at the hospital, a place, she said, where she could strategize and benefit from being with people in a similar situation. Too often, Ontario residents are in hospital or in long-term care when they don’t really need to be, said Matthews, so the government last year tried through its regional health authorities, the LHINs, to provide more communitybased services “designed to keep people home as long as possible.” Had the “superb” program at Providence not existed, Drown might have had to make a decision sooner to place her husband in longterm care, said the minister, who chose the hospital as the site of her 14th and final regional funding announcement. Listening calmly to the proceedings was Monty, a six-year-old labradoodle who has been part of the day program for five and a half years. Staff say the dog brings
participants joy and a sense of normalcy, as well as sparking reminiscences of pets they once had. CEO Josie Walsh said Providence, which has 1,400 staff and volunteers on its campus at St. Clair and Warden avenues, had just concluded the largest consultation in its history, and in January approved “a new vision” with an emphasis on outpatient programs and supporting people at home. Besides the 245-bed hospital – founded as the House of Providence in downtown Toronto by the Sisters of St. Joseph in 1857, and transplanted to Scarborough in 1962 – the campus contains a nursing home, the Cardinal Ambrozic Houses of Providence, with 288 residents. Scarborough Southwest MPP Lorenzo Berardinetti recalled a visit to what was known as Providence Villa in 1988. “It was in nowhere near the same condition,” he recalled, adding the province and donors have spent significant sums at Providence.

A not so Super Bowl
Liz and Frank never missed a beat...
Unfortunately for fans of right tackle Orlando Franklin, Super Bowl Sunday had a far different result then they were hoping for with the slightly favoured Denver Broncos suffering one of the greatest Super Bowl catastrophes ever, losing 43-8 to the Seattle Seahawks. Still, it was just a game and as most fans of Franklin know, his story is one of perseverance to make it from the Scarborough Thunder football club where he played for eight years to what is probably the first Scarborough native ever to make a Super Bowl. In fact one of his former Thunder coaches, Roberto ‘Bubba’ Allen hosted a Super Bowl party Sunday night at Seneca College.
And now they’re ready for the next step While Liz and Frank are enjoying a busy lifestyle today, they appreciate the peace of mind in knowing that Chartwell offers flexibility and choice to help with changing care needs in the future. Until that time, they’ll continue to follow where the music leads in their new Chartwell home.

Getting a handwritten letter nowadays is extraordinary, as people often do not take the time to write letters in an age when emailing, texting and tweeting have revolutionized the way people communicate with one another. However, writing notes, letters and exclamations of love can be more intimate, especially on Valentine’s Day. In France, love letters are called billet doux. The French are known to be romantics at heart, but that doesn’t mean people from all over the globe can’t put pen to paper to express their feelings. Handwritten letters are often seen as thoughtful gestures, especially when those letters are expressing intimate sentiment. Here are some guidelines for writing a love note or letter. ♥ Visit a stationery store for a nice piece of stationery and envelope. If you are putting forth the effort to create a beautiful, handwritten letter, you can add to the experience by selecting a fine paper on which to write. There are many different types of paper, including some that are embossed. Some may even feature flower petals or leaves embedded in the paper. ♥ Brush up on your penmanship. A letter will be rendered useless if it isn’t legible. ♥ Have a picture of the person to whom you will be addressing the letter nearby. This may provide some inspiration. ♥ Jot down ideas on a piece of scrap paper. Think about how your partner makes you feel and the qualities he or she possesses that you find appeal-

ing, and use concrete examples why you love and care for this person. ♥ Write a rough draft and be sure to proofread it for misspellings and grammatical errors. ♥ Always write from the heart and be sincere in what you say. Try to call out specific examples that recall particularly fond memories. ♥ Write your final copy of the letter on the good paper. Make sure it is neat and legible. Be sure you date it because it is likely the note will be saved. ♥ You may want to wait a day or two before sending the letter to be sure the sentiments you expressed are truly what you want to say. If so, mail or hand deliver the note. Love letters and other handwritten notes are quickly becoming a thing of the past, as technology has largely replaced pen and paper. Yet, those who want to add a special touch to any occasion can choose to write a letter and make a lasting impression.

Council debates changing name of Union Station DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com Toronto’s Union Station could be in for a renaming to go along with its renovation, as Toronto’s executive committee voted Tuesday to ask for a staff report on what it would take to name the railway station after Canada’s first prime minister, Sir John A. Macdonald. If it goes ahead, the station would be renamed in honor of the bicentennial of Macdonald’s birth in 2015. Don Valley East Councillor Denzil Minnan-Wong brought forward the motion. He argued there were plenty of reasons to change the generically named Union Station to one honouring Macdonald. “ There are 23 Union Stations in North America,” Minnan-Wong said. “They were all named for the same reasons: it’s where different rail companies

overlap. “There’s nothing special that distinguishes Toronto’s because it shares that quality with Chicago’s Union Station, Los Angeles’ Union Station and Erie, Pennsylvania, Union Station.” Change to Macdonald Minnan-Wong pointed out Macdonald was instrumental in the creation of the Canadian Pacific Railway, and it makes sense a rail terminal bears his name. “There are those reluctant to embrace change,” MinnanWong said. “Those will be the same people who were reluctant to change Dominion Day to Canada Day, and Toronto

International Airport to Pearson Airport.” Trinity-Spadina Councillor Adam Vaughan was one councillor reluctant to name Union Station, specifically, after Macdonald. “I think it’s appropriate to find a way to honour the first prime minister in a significant way in the city,” he said. “I’ve had calls about everything from Avenue Road to renaming Nathan Phillips Square. I think Conservatives in the city want some recognition. Union Station, however, is a spiritual, historical and cultural centrepiece of the city. I don’t think it’s appropriate to obliterate history when you want to recognize history.”
Councillors approve city budget DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com There’s a little more money for firefighting, student nutrition, and public transit in the 2014 budget. But after two days of debate last week, Toronto Council said no to all but a couple of ideas that Mayor Rob Ford brought forward to bring the 2.23 per cent property tax increase down to 1.75 per cent. And despite the efforts of councillors opposed to the Scarborough subway extension, it managed to avoid a vote that might have put the brakes on spending the bounty of a 0.5 per cent dedicated tax increase. In the end, Toronto homeowners will be paying a total property tax increase of 2.71 per cent, due to shifts in assessment of properties, which amounts to $68.59 on the average Toronto household for the year. If Mayor Ford had had his way, that tax increase would have been $12 lower.
25
SILVER MILE PLAZA
On Thursday, Ford unveiled 18 amendments to the budget that he claimed would save $60 million from the $9.6 billion budget. Ford’s amendments were a combination of outright budget cuts and requests for reports on ways to reduce certain budgets. Amendments approved In the end, only a couple were approved. Council voted in favour of asking city staff to look at ways to bring in corporate sponsorship for $19.1 million in programs the city will be creating as showcases for the Pan Am Games in 2015, the cancellation of Toronto’s Employment Engagement Survey for $250,000, the end to two city-produced magazines, saving $475,000, and a report on ways to speed up the implementation of a shared service plan that Ford guesses could save between $10 million and $15 million. Councillors rejected a raft
of other motions, including one to remove security guards from public libraries, one to collect overdue library fines on the property tax bill, cuts to councillors’ travel, staff and operating budgets and a plan to charge a minimum of $14 to underprivileged children accessing programs. St. Paul’s Councillor Josh Matlow unsuccessfully attempted repeatedly to first eliminate the 0.5 per cent levy to raise money for the Scarborough subway extension – then to defer spending any of that money until 2015. But under questioning from councillors – particularly those from Scarborough – Matlow admitted that he would like to see the $3-billion line scrapped and council vote to return to a light rail line to replace the aging Scarborough RT. “I think the decision itself was just the worst decision we could make,” he said.
