Pedestrian dead, officer hurt in Mid-Scarborough hit-and-run

more online

insidetoronto.com

A pedestrian is dead, a Toronto Police officer was hurt and a driver was on the run after a late morning collision Wednesday in mid-Scarborough. Police were called to the

scene near Midland and Eglinton avenues just before 11:30 a.m. on Oct. 12, and later said a vehicle involved in both the fatality and injuries to a paid duty officer at the inter-

section is a white BMW. The BMW did not remain, and fled north on Gilder Drive. Police said the pedestrian, whose age and sex were not

released, was pronounced dead at the scene. It was not clear why a paid duty officer was in the area as of The Mirror’s press deadline.

Most Torontonians want to charge foreign buyers of city real estate a special tax, according to a poll commissioned by Scarborough-Agincourt councillor (Ward 39) Jim Karygiannis. The Mainstreet survey shows 52 per cent of 1,045 residents support a special tax, and that this support is fairly consistent across Toronto. “That tells me that we need to do something,” said Karygiannis, adding that he paid for the poll from his own office budget after doing his own ward-based survey. Vancouver’s 15-per-cent “property transfer tax” for foreign buyers took effect on Aug. 2, and is thought to have cooled that city’s real estate market somewhat. Vancouver also plans an additional tax on homes which sit vacant, another move thought to target mainly foreign buyers. In the Mainstreet poll, taken last month, no amount of tax is specified, but 59 per cent of residents in Etobicoke and 54 per cent in North York favoured a special tax. >>>RESULTS, page 7

New programs from Scarborough Arts TARA HATHERLY thatherly@insidetoronto.com Scarborough Arts has announced new programs to highlight and support the growth of the local artistic community. “Each program aims to play a significant role in reshaping the creative landscape of Scarborough,” Sergei Petrov, executive director of Scarborough Arts, said in a press release. “We’re truly excited about these new initiatives, because they underpin our organization’s commitment to partnership in program design and delivery. We believe that we work better together, and these programs all aim to bring individual artists and groups closer, developing a robust network that can serve the community at large.” The programs offer something for all ages. The revamped Seniors Write program supports the development of senior writers in Scarborough through workshops and publication opportunities. The workshops run from Thursday, Nov. 3 to Thursday, Nov. 24. Scarborough Arts is creating an anthology highlighting the work of Scarborough’s senior writers. The deadline to apply for the anthology is Monday, Oct. 31. For young writers, actors and directors, Scarborough Arts and Tarragon Theatre are

offering Youth Playwrights Hub. The program, for Scarborough residents ages 13 to 25, will pair participants with professional playwrights to develop scenes to be showcased in Tarragon Theatre and the Scarborough Project, a collaborative work involving three Scarborough schools. Participants will also watch Taragon Theatre productions. The deadline application was Tuesday, Oct. 11. The SA Together art residency is a support program for art groups, collectives and organizations working or based in

The Rouge Valley Health System (RVHS) is splitting up with its Centenary site merging with The Scarborough Hospital (TSH), tentatively Nov. 1.

Board decide the two Scarborough hospitals should merge with new name Questions remain on how new Scarbourgh hospital can handle $20 million in merger costs MIKE ADLER madler@insidetoronto.com

will be called Scarborough and Rouge Hospital. The amalgamation was among the recommendations of an expert panel Hoskins chose in April 2015, after a failed merger between the hospitals and persistent complaints about overcrowding and poor conditions at Scarborough hospital campuses. After his final approval of the merger, Rouge Valley’s AjaxPickering site will become part of another hospital, Oshawa’s Lakeridge Health. In a release, TSH Board Chairperson Janet Dalicandro said it was important to reorganize acute health care services for Durham Region and Scarborough along regional lines. “Having unified systems -

Scarborough’s two hospitals should merge into a hospital with a new name, directors of Rouge Valley Health System (RVHS) and The Scarborough Hospital (TSH) decided last week. Ontario Health Minister Dr. Eric Hoskins in April supported breaking up Rouge Valley which operates two campuses - Rouge Valley Centenary in Scarborough, and Rouge Valley Ajax-Pickering in West Durham - and having the Centenary site merge with the TSH which also operates two campuses (General and Birchmount). At meetings last week, boards of the hospitals agreed this will happen on Nov. 1, and the new institution, for now,

Scarborough. It runs from November 2016 to September 2017. The application deadline is Monday, Oct. 31. Local artists can apply for the Scarborough Arts’ Holiday Dreams exhibition and market, taking place from Dec. 1 to 17 at the Bluffs Gallery. The members-only exhibit will include 2D, 3D or digital art reflecting on the inspiring power of the holiday season. The market is new this year, and will feature local artists and crafters. The deadline to apply is Monday, Nov. 7. Visit www.scarborougharts.com for more information.

one for Scarborough and one for Durham - will benefit our communities immensely,” she said.

“

Having unified systems - one for Scarborough and one for Durham - will benefit our communities immensely. – Janet Dalicandro, TSH Board Chairperson

Year-long planning studies after the mergers are expected to lead to long-awaited hospital infrastructure projects in Scarborough, including a new campus. Questions remain, though, about how the new

Scarborough hospital will absorb an estimated $20.2 million in merger costs without cutting services. The hospitals met invited “stakeholders” and set up a website, www.ourhospitals.ca, to answer questions, but held no public meetings. A group called the Ontario Health Coalition, which says the mergers “would be risky for our local health care services,” meets at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 22 in the Bendale Public Library on Danforth Road. RVHS CEO Andree Robichaud will be interim CEO of the new Scarborough hospital while a new CEO is being recruited, but won’t seek the position herself, the hospitals said last week. Rouge Valley’s members, which include volunteers and donors to the hospital between April 2015 and March 31, 2016, also must approve the merger and will meet at the Centenary site at 4 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 20.

Give students a chance to succeed

hen we’re young we make a lot of mistakes - big ones, little ones, and some that can be life altering.

Unprotected sex can lead to unwanted pregnancy or disease. Drug and alcohol abuse can do permanent harm to a growing body and lead to life-long addiction. These are human mistakes, and as much as we might wish, they are impossible to guard against, particularly for young people whose judgement may not yet be refined. Surely, we should not design a school system that also provides risks of permanent harm to still-unwise young people who make a bad choice in setting their academic course. The curriculum change in 2003 OuR ViEW - which followed the end of the Ontario Academic Credit - was intended to end student streamOpportunities ing with the addition of applied and academic learning, but as hindered with one education advocate says, this change has effectively laid a trap curriculum for students. The elimination of a fifth year change of high school, along with a cap on credits the province will fund (34 is the maximum unless the board approves it), essentially ties the hands of a student trying to get ahead. If a student decides early on to eschew academic courses for the apparently easier applied courses, upgrading later on may be hindered by bureaucracy. As Annie Kidder, founder and executive director of advocacy group People for Education, said in Metroland Media’s feature article on this issue “we need to allow for the vast amount of change that happens to young people”. The group’s report ‘Applied or Academic: High Impact Decisions for Ontario Students’ surveyed Ontario schools and found only 20 per cent of schools with grades 7 and 8 reported having a guidance counsellor on staff, and most of those positions were part-time. If a student in Grade 8 doesn’t have the maturity to envision their life after four years, then provisions need to be put in place to give these young minds the right support, at the right time. The Ministry of Education has heard from several boards wanting the applied and academic streams to be scrapped in Grade 9, to give kids a level playing field in their first year, then they can decide how to move forward. It would be a mistake to take options and opportunity away from students just as they’re getting started.

column

Trump tape recalls Rob Ford’s video woes The U.S. presidential election – particularly, the rise of its Republican standardbearer – has felt a bit like a funhouse mirror for many of us watching in Toronto. Donald Trump, with his nativist populism, his “plainspokenness,” which frankly came across more as ugliness and bigotry but worked more like Teflon... well, it was something that we’d seen before here, first in 2010 when the late Rob Ford won the mayoralty against more qualified candidates and again in 2014 when his brother Doug Ford came close to doing the same thing. Of course it’s not the same thing. Neither of the Ford brothers were even half as incoherent as Trump has been, and neither made such a direct pitch to the so-called Alt-Right white supremacist crowd. But the trajectory, the ability to gather support to unlikely levels, had some similarities. And last week, another similarity emerged: the calamitous revelation, on

david nickle the city tape, of behaviour that to most people is beyond the pale. For Trump, that came in the leaked Access Hollywood tape, in which Trump boasts to then-host Billy Bush of his ability to use fame to get away with what amounts to sexual assault on women he finds attractive. For Rob Ford, it came in the form of a series of recordings: the long-denied video in which he smoked crack; a drunken video of a walk on the Danforth; a drunken rant at an Etobicoke restaurant disparaging then Toronto police chief Bill Blair; and, maybe most damningly, a lewd and drunken rant about Karen Stintz, the Toronto Councillor and former TTC Chair who was running against him for the mayoralty. It looks at this point as though the 11-year-old tape of Trump bragging about

being able to grab women by the genitals has become a deal-breaker, at least with his nominal Republican allies and most likely with the electorate. It is worth remembering, however, that while Ford’s many drug-andalcohol-fuelled videos did isolate him from his allies on council, it did no such thing with the electorate. Ford didn’t even have to appear especially contrite in order to reclaim the love of the so-called Ford Nation portion of the electorate. When he returned from rehab, his apology for his behaviour morphed halfway through into a stump speech – something that Trump mirrored in his own apology the Saturday morning after the tape appeared, when he characterized the tape as locker-room talk and then dismissed it as a distraction from his message. We’ll never know whether Rob Ford could have won a second term as mayor after the self-inflicted damage of his first term – his cancer

diagnosis saw to that. But his brother Doug’s campaign made John Tory’s election to the mayoralty in 2014 a near thing, despite Doug’s own very Trump-like campaign gaffes. The election of Rob Ford’s nephew Michael, in the summer byelection for his old Ward 2 seat, was never really a question. It’s hard to say whether Donald Trump will, with weeks still to go in the campaign, be able to rally in the United States in the same way that the Fords had been able to in Toronto. Probably he won’t. But whether he does or not, it’s a sure bet that the sizeable minority of voters who’ve held tight with Donald won’t let a little tape, no matter how vile its contents, sway their loyalty to the Trumps. Like Ford Nation here in Toronto, they’re not going anywhere.

Results show 49 per cent of Cheer on runners at Scotiabank Scarborough, downtown residents Waterfront Marathon this Sunday polled in favour of special tax >>>from page 1 People in both Scarborough and the city’s downtown were 49 per cent in favour, according to Mainstreet, which said 27 per cent of people across Toronto were against the measure, while 21 per cent said they weren’t sure. Karygiannis said he commissioned the survey, and an earlier one posted on his website which had more lopsided results, because in the overheated Toronto market, young people - even those staying with parents to save money for a down payment - are being priced out. Mayor John Tor y last month said the city was watching events in Vancouver but would not impose a special real estate tax. He added that, “Vancouver is not Toronto.”

Karygiannis, who released his Mainstream poll results on Tuesday, Oct. 11, said they show “the mayor spoke too early.”

“

poll respondents said yes, 33 per cent said no and 24 per cent were unsure. Length of vacancy before such a tax wasn’t specified. A tax on foreign home buyers “is also a revenue tool for a city that is cashstrapped,” Kar ygiannis added. Av e r a g e p r i c e s f o r detached Toronto homes are up to nearly $1.3 million, and tougher mortgage rules to be introduced next week are expected to further limit what people can borrow. The Toronto Real Estate Board says it is surveying members to find the number of foreign buyers in the market, and should have results over the next month. The federal government is also collecting data on foreign buyers across Canada.

(A tax on foreign home buyers) “is also a revenue tool for a city that is cash-strapped. – Jim Karygiannis

The councillor said he will ask Toronto Council to order a staff report on a special tax at a meeting next month, and urged people to “join the conversation” on whether one or both of Vancouver’s measures are good ideas. Asked if Toronto should introduce a special tax for owners of vacant property, 43 per cent of the Mainstreet

The 27th edition of the Scotiabank Waterfront Marathon is set for Sunday, Oct. 16. The popular race, which features bands, cheerleaders, and Neighbourhood Entertainment and Cheering Centres every two or so kilometres, will be welcoming more than

26,000 runners from more than 60 countries. The event will also be hosting the Canadian National Marathon Championships. This time around, a dozen cheering sections will be dotting the route from the Humber River to The Beach. Prizes will be won for the best

sections. All are welcome to come out and cheer on the runners. Each section will also be featuring Neighbourhood Champions who will be running the race to raise funds for a range of charitable causes. Visit http://www.torontowaterfrontmarathon.com/en/ index.htm for more information.

Three officers charged with assault Three Toronto police officers have been charged with assault causing bodily harm in relation to a 2013 arrest. T h e Sp e c i a l Investigations Unit (SIU) said the officers arrested a 46-year-old man at his home on the evening of Feb. 13, 2013, placing him into the back of a police cruiser.

According to the SIU, there was an interaction between the officers and the man en route to the police station. The man was then taken to hospital with a serious injury. The SIU said they learned of the incident in August 2015 and began investigating. Const. John Darnell, Const.

Piara Dhaliwal and Const. Adam Morris have each been charged with one count of assault causing bodily harm. The officers are expected to appear in court Thursday, Nov. 3. The SIU is an arm’s length agency that investigates reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury, or allegations of sexual assault.

special report

APPLIED VS. ACADEMIC:

A look at how student streaming and credit caps are affecting how young people plan for their future TARA HATHERLY thatherly@insidetoronto.com

t has been 13 years since Ontario eliminated its official 13th year of school – then known as OAC – amid a controversial curriculum change that was supposed to end student streaming. The official 13th year, called Grade 13 until the 1980s when it was replaced by OAC (Ontario Academic Credit), was phased out in 2003 by the Progressive Conservative government. But could another change made when OAC was eliminated – introducing applied and academic course options – be making it hard for students to finish in four years with the credits they need to succeed and decreasing the likelihood some students will excel, while effectively continuing to stream students? Applied and academic credits are meant to be “mix and match,” but most students take courses in one or the other. Academic credits are typically required for university. “In a lot of cases, students pick applied because they think it will be easier, and then ironically they are much less likely to be successful in the applied stream. There’s so much evidence that says it’s a bad idea to divide kids, particularly in that first grade of high school. It limits choices, it closes doors, it sometimes sets kids up for failure,” said Annie Kidder, founder and executive director of advocacy group People for Education. “There are kids who either aren’t graduating, or who are getting to Grade 12 and realizing that there are doors that are already closed to them that got closed when they made

Staff/Metroland

Grade 12 students work independently during teacher Hugh Tran's math class at Father John Redmond Catholic Secondary School. These students, if they wish, can return for a fifth year of high school, but the province will only fund up to 34 credits.

that choice in Grade 8.” The courses replaced vocational, college and university streams, and are meant to teach the same curriculum in different ways. Academic courses study essential and related concepts with a theoretical approach, while applied teach essential concepts in a more practical, hands-on way. According to Ontar io’s Education Quality and Accountability Office, of students who demonstrate strong math skills in grades 3 and 6, those who take applied math courses in high school are less likely to continue earning high marks. Lowered expectations, and in turn, lowered effort, for kids in applied courses has been floated by education experts as one potential cause for the disparities. In math, 83 per cent of Ontario Grade 9 students in aca-

demic courses met or exceeded the provincial standard this year, while only 45 per cent of applied students hit the mark. In English, 92 per cent of Grade 10 students successfully completed this year’s Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test, while only 47 per cent of applied students were successful. A study by the Toronto District School Board, Ontario’s largest school board, suggests 60 per cent of students who take applied courses in Grade 9 don’t graduate within five years, compared to 14 per cent of those who choose academic. It takes 30 credits to graduate high school. A 34-credit threshold was introduced by the provincial Liberals in 2013. After 34 credits, the government decreases funding to school boards for most students. Students wanting to earn more than 34 credits must get approval

from their board, and may have to take courses through continuing education. “Over a decade ago, Ontarians moved to four years of high school, but many students are still taking that additional fifth year, even after graduating,” said a government statement at the time. “We need to shift the culture in our schools and encourage students to graduate and move on to the next stage in their lives after four years.” Needing to replace applied credits with academic or raise marks in a completed course, or switching career paths and needing different courses, to get to post-secondary programs, can leave students wanting more than 34 credits. “I think we need to allow for the vast amount of change that happens to young people,” Kidder said. “Obviously it can’t be unlimited and there have to

be boundaries in this, but the problem always with capping anything is are there people who lose from that, and I think in this case 34 may be too low.” Education Minister Mitzie Hunter and Education Critic Patrick Brown declined to be interviewed for this article, after weeks of correspondence with their representatives, with Hunter citing a lack of availability. “When selecting their courses in Grades 9 and 10, students are not expected to make binding decisions about a particular educational or career pathway,” said Ministry of Education spokesperson Heather Irwin. “However, they should try to ensure that they have the prerequisites required for future courses they plan to take. Schools must make provisions to allow students to make changes in direction and must clearly describe these provisions in their school program/ course calendar.” But the provisions, which can include a half-credit summer course, seem to present a barrier. During the 2014-2015 school year, only three per cent of schools reported students often transfer from applied to academic courses, while 43 per cent reported transfers happen never or not very often, according to a People for Education study. D u r i n g a g ov e r n m e n t announcement about child care Friday, Sept. 23, Metroland Media Central reporter Cynthia Reason asked Hunter if Ontario would consider reviewing the academic and applied separations in Grade 9. Hunter said the ministry is consulting with school boards, some of which, she noted, have requested the separations be eliminated.

For a year and a half after being diagnosed with herniated discs in her neck and spine that prevented her from walking, Jane Bradford relied on a mix of prescription opiates to reduce her pain. Given their side effects - Bradford was constantly groggy and had concerns about long-term health impacts of opioid use - she was thrilled when another option came along. Bradford is now one of a growing number of people across Canada who rely on medical cannabis to help relieve pain and deal with other medical conditions, and while she is still trying to find the perfect type and dosage, she said the difference between opiates and cannabis are night and day. “I need to think clearly at work, and using (medical cannabis) I don’t feel

Dr. Danial Schecter

nearly as groggy or dopey as I would feel under opioids,” she said. She currently takes drops of cannabis oil, which has helped her to stop using four opioids. Such experiences are not uncommon, said Dr. Danial Schecter of the Cannabinoid Medical Clinic. Medical cannabis - a term he prefers over the more common “medical marijuana” because of the stigma associated with the latter - has been legal in Canada since 2001, with physicians gaining the power to prescribe it in 2013. There are hundreds of

strains available in various forms. The strains vary based largely on their ratio of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidol (CBD). “THC is what causes psychoactivity, so there’s a lot of it in cannabis used for recreational purposes, but it also has medicinal properties,” Schecter said. Schecter hopes to see the stigma surrounding medical cannabis wiped out as people learn more about it as a means of relieving pain and coping with other conditions. Schecter and Bradford will join a panel of experts on the subject of medical cannabis at a Medical Marijuana Information Session hosted by Metroland Media Toronto and sponsored by CanniMed. The free event takes place on Oct. 19 from 6 to 10 p.m. at the Ontario Science Centre, 770 Don Mills Rd. For more info, visit www.insidetoronto. com/MedicalMarijuana.

St. Francis Table serves up dinner on Thanksgiving to families in need Desserts donated by Montmartre Bakery in Scarborough HILARY CATON hcaton@insidetoronto.com At St. Francis Table in Parkdale, prepar ing Thanksgiving dinner for the less fortunate is seen not only as customary, but as the right things to do, especially this time of year. Volunteers from St. Maria Goretti’s Catholic Women’s League have been coming once a month to help prepare meals for more than a decade. “It’s nice to help out because I know there are a lot less fortunate people and they come here to have a nice meal and it’s nice to help out,” said Armi Buama, who also brought her son Carlo to help out.“It makes

you feel good.” St. Francis Table, a community-based organization that runs a soup kitchen, has been hosting Thanksgiving dinners, since it opened its doors back in the 1980s. On Sunday, Oct 9, it opened its doors at noon to serve patrons, restaurant style, a turkey dinner with mashed potatoes, veggies, fried rice, gravy and dessert. “St. Francis of Assisi is our founder and as his followers we try to keep his spirit alive here at St. Francis Table; deeding the hungry is just one aspect of giving to the poor,” Brother John Frampton told Metroland Media Toronto. “People who depend on us for food appreciate the fact that we’re here and I think this Thanksgiving is a time for our patrons to be appreciated.” Those in need of a hot Thanksgiving meal began lining up at its doors since

10 a.m., which doesn’t surprise Brother Frampton, who said they expect a line every year. 170 MealS SeRVeD “We’ll serve 150 to 170 meals today and we’ll stay open until there’s nobody else waiting,” he said. The food prepared for

this feast was all donated by the Kingsway Council Knights of Columbus, based in Etobicoke, while the desserts were donated by the Montmartre Bakery in Scarborough. The kitchen also had three chef volunteers from popular downtown restaurants, two of which have strong connections to the community.

“This cause is close to my heart, it’s where I grew up. If it wasn’t for places like this, people would really be suffering,” said Daniel Sullivan, one of the volunteer chefs. “This a great cause and it’s done by people who donate their time. There’s no government funding here, it’s all donations. This is just generosity of people.”

Toronto Fire Chief Jim Sales has called it quits. The City of Toronto said Sales will leave his position “effective today” (Friday, Oct. 7). Sales joined the fire service as chief in July 2012 and has been on a personal leave for the past few months. Matthew Pegg has been interim fire chief since Sales went on leave and will continue in his role until the City appoints a new chief. Sales served in Edmonton, Markham and Barrie before joining Toronto Fire Services. “It’s been an honour to lead Toronto Fire Services for the past four and a half years,” Sales said in a news release Friday. “I am proud of what we have been able to accomplish. I sincerely hope that our efforts will provide a strong foundation for the Fire Service to continue to excel.”

Do you have good hearing but find listening tiring? Research has shown that even people with minimal hearing loss find listening to be tiring. Swiss based hearing aid technology can help by limiting the effort needed by the brain to understand speech. Listening and understanding speech are an important part of everyday communications. However, this can be challenging for people with normal hearing, and even more trying for people with hearing loss. Many of our everyday environments are not ideal. Poor acoustics, lack of visual cues (e.g. on-the phone or talking from another room), muffled speech, and background noise limit our ability to understand speech. This results in asking people to repeat themselves, straining to hear, and possibly avoiding group discussions. A rising field of study by hearing researchers is listening effort. This can be defined as the amount of cognitive resources that are being used to process and understand speech. Research suggests that continued listening effort is linked to

reduce the cognitive processing needed to understand speech. Listening effort may be reduced for some clients through the new rechargeable Phonak Audéo B-R hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology allows hearing aids to automatically adapt to any listening environment. In addition to understanding speech easier, less effort is required to listen. The rechargeable system is easy to use and provides 24 hours‡ of hearing with only one charge.

Thebrainrequiresmorementalenergywhen listening in difficult environments. This effortful listening in turn leads to fatigue. increases in stress, tension, and fatigue. A person who is straining to hear is using more brain power to understand speech. The more brain power needed, the more tired that person is going to feel. A growing body of research suggests that hearing aids may reduce listening effort, and in return mental fatigue when processing speech in noise. Digital Noise Reduction technology has been shown to

Chef Jamie Oliver (third from right) joins Stop Marketing to Kids Coalition members Tom Warshawski (left), Nathan Sing, Nancy Greene Raine, Geoff Craig, Nick Saul and Jan Hux at the Evergreen Brick Works on Oct. 6 to talk about childhood obesity.

The food business in Canada is ‘broken’ says Jamie Oliver Chef, community members push for regulations TARA HATHERLY thatherly@insidetoronto.com Chef Jamie Oliver joined members of the Stop Marketing to Kids Coalition at Evergreen Brick Works in Toronto last Thursday to talk about childhood obesity. The panel discussion also featured Nick Saul, p re s i d e n t a n d C E O o f Community Food Centres of Canada; Dr. Jan Hux, chief science officer for Canadian Diabetes Association; Dr. Tom Warshawski, pediatrician and CEO of Community Food Centres of Canada; Geoff Craig, chief marketing officer for Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada; youth advocate Nathan Sing; and Canadian Senator Nancy Greene Raine. “This conversation is important,” said Oliver. “The biggest business on this planet is the food business ... and we have a broken system.” He urged Canada to be a world leader in creating policies that help people make healthy choices - banning the

marketing of unhealthy food and drinks to kids, adding kid-sized portion information to food labels and taxing sugary drinks to fund health initiatives like expanded food education in schools. He also urged the Canadian government to ensure all kids, including those in Indigenous communities, have access to affordable healthy food choices. “I think it’s important that we remember that kids are not born on Earth to just eat nuggets,” he said. “This is not genetic. We created this. It’s called marketing, it’s called comfort, it’s called familiarity.” Unhealthy diets are taking years off Canadians’ lives at the same rate as cigarettes, the panel noted, and creating an unsustainable burden on our health care system. “We cannot afford to do nothing,” said Hux. The panel members stressed the need for independent regulation of food marketing in Canada. “Industry self-regulation

is a failure,” said Craig. “The standards are lax, participation is voluntary and there is more advertising and marketing to children than ever before. “We know that over 90 per cent of food decisions in the household are driven by children,” he added. “The ‘nag factor’ does not come out of nowhere - it is driven by marketing messages. It is not a fair fight for parents. Winning the battle for harmony often means losing the battle for health.” More than 30 per cent of Canadian kids ages 5 to 17 are overweight or obese, a number that continues to climb. “The doubling and tripling of obesity and diet-related disease in the last 30 years in most of our developing countries is phenomenal,” Oliver said. “There’s 43 million children under five that are overweight or obese ... and now we have a double burden in many countries where we have obesity and hunger, and this is a challenge for many, many countries.”

At last. The hearing aid that thousands have wanted is now available. The latest digital hearing aid technology solves the biggest challenge for hearing aid wearers–hearing well in noisy environments. Nobody will notice it because of its minute size, fitting snugly and comfortably just behind your ear. Everything works automatically. There are no controls to worry about and adjustments are easy to make–even from your smart phone. So you can get back to enjoying your relationships, rather than thinking about your hearing. Because these new hearing aids collect and digitally processes natural, 360 degree sound thousands of times per second, they have been shown to reduce

the strain that effortful-listening puts on the brain and even to improve recall from conversations in noisy listening environments. In fact, these hearing aids improve speech understanding in background noise 30% better than even the previous top-of-the-line hearing aids. Hearing professionals are celebrating the biggest advancement in 30 years of fitting hearing aids and patients credit it with providing a substantial improvement in their ability to communicate in large groups and noisy social settings. A hearing test takes less than 60 minutes, you don’t need a doctor’s referral, and there’s no cost or obligation whatsoever. Call now to try these hearing aids for yourself!

Let’s create a policy – make Jays games welcoming The Blue Jays and beer cans. It’s all anyone seemed to be talking about last week. In case you were on a social media cleanse, the gist: a beer can was hurled onto the field during the Wild Card game between our beloved Jays and the Baltimore Orioles, allegedly by a fan. Also hurled from the stands to the Orioles that day, racist slurs. Though reported in the media, that part of the story took a noticeable backseat to the beer can aspect, which seemed to take on a life of its own. A photo released of the suspect, a reward offered, a relentless hunt on social media to find the culprit guilty of sullying the world view of die-hard Blue Jays fans, and more widely, Canada the great. Within a day, a man turned himself in; charges for public mischief laid. Even more astounding, a swift policy change implemented banning the sale of beer cans at the Rogers Centre during

priya ramanujam MILLENNIAL MIND

Jays’ games. When it comes to the racism part though – that’s where it gets dicier. Cue the sweeping of the matter under the rug. Bring on the ‘that’s just sports arena banter’ defences and the flat-out denial that it ever even happened. Hearing about the racist slurs at the ball game came as no surprise to me. I thought back to my first (and only) time ever watching a Blue Jays game at the Rogers Centre, then known as the SkyDome, when I was in elementary school. Born and raised in a part of Scarborough where more than 90 per cent of the population identifies as racialized, I distinctly remember the game was the first time I felt like an ‘other’. My mom and I didn’t belong here. I couldn’t articulate the feeling into words back then, I just knew.

I can only imagine that might have been the feeling of some of the sports fans sitting in the stands last Tuesday. These ball game blunders come at a time when one of the frontrunners for leadership of Canada’s Progressive Conservative party, Kellie Leitch, is calling for immigrants to be screened for ‘anti-Canadian values’ and a subsequent poll reveals that 68 per cent of ‘Canadians’ believe that ‘minorities’ should be doing more to fit into ‘mainstream’ society. Obvious faux pas aside (not all ‘minorities’ are immigrants), as a Canadian, I can think of few things more ‘Canadian’ than heading to a baseball game. So exactly how welcoming are we making sure sporting arenas are for all athletes and fans? If you ask me, it’s high-time for some discussion, and policy, around that.

New appointee made to TTC board A long-time insurance executive is the latest appointee to the TTC’s board of commissioners. At its monthly meeting held last week, Toronto Council unanimously endorsed the TTC’s recommendation to appoint Joanne De Laurentiis to the TTC board. De Laurentiis was picked to fill a vacancy following vice chair Maureen Adamson’s resignation back in May. She will sit on the board for a fouryear term, which finishes at the end of 2020. According to her LinkedIn profile, De Laurentiis is currently the vice chair of National NewsMedia Council. Prior to that, she was CEO of the Investment Funds Institute of Canada for 10 years before retiring earlier this year.

more Bloor bike lanes. As a pilot project, the city installed separated lines on Bloor Street between Shaw Street and Avenue Road over the summer, and to celebrate the group will make use of the new infrastructure for the weekend ride. A similar event last year raised $35,000 for pro-bikelane campaigns, and this year CycleTO hopes to raise $50,000. CycleTO says it will use the fundraising to push for the expansion of the Bloor lanes further east to Yonge Street as well as on to the Danforth. Registration is still open for the ride, which takes place 11 a.m. Saturday.

Toronto’s latest pedestrian fatality sadly took place this week after a 65-yearold woman was struck in

North York near Don Mills Road and York Mills Road Tuesday. According to police, the woman was pronounced dead at the scene; at that point no charges had been laid against the driver. This is the city’s 34th pedestrian fatality this year. Put into perspective, there have been 29 fatal shootings so far in 2016. ThE GOAT OF NORThERN MOTORISTS wGETTING

York Regional Police had to deal with a strange traffic disturbance this week, one which did not involve traditional vehicles. A herd of some 100 goats was sighted Tuesday, Oct. 11 on Frog Street in Georgina, Ont., a town of just over 43,000 in York Region. According to local reports, the goats had cleared the road by the time police had arrived and a search was underway for the runaway herd’s owner. Now that’s nothing to kid about.

Part-Time Electrician Wanted

Own tools required Call 647-866-2486

Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) make Ontario’s health care system more patient-centered and responsive to local health care needs by planning, coordinating, integrating and funding the delivery of health services in each of the fourteen LHIN geographic areas.

Part-time Board Directors The Ontario Government is seeking local citizens interested in, and qualified for, service on the Central East Local Health Integration Network Board of Directors for current and future positions of Director. The Central East LHIN serves a diverse population of 1.5 million people. Within our catchment area, 14% are seniors, 72% of the population live in large urban centres, while 13% live in rural areas, a third of the population in the LHIN are immigrants and 16% of LHIN residents are living in low-income. The Central East LHIN is a mix of urban and rural geography and is the sixth-largest LHIN in land area in Ontario (16,673 km2). The neighbourhoods in our planning zones boast a rich diversity of community values, ethnicity, language and socio-demographic characteristics. The Central East LHIN receives $1.2B in transfer funding from the province and is responsible for the planning and performance management of health care services in our catchment area, including the hospitals, community agencies, long term care homes and home care agencies. As a member of the Central East LHIN Board of Directors, you will be responsible for directing its affairs in accordance with applicable legislation, approved strategic and business plans, the accountability agreement with the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC), and the directions and policies established by the MOHLTC. Serving on a LHIN board is a part-time appointment, involving a significant commitment, often involving meetings and/or teleconferences during and outside normal business hours. Candidates should consider their ability to make such a commitment as part of their decision to express their interest in serving on the LHIN Board. Candidates should have significant experience in areas that would be relevant to the LHIN position, including one or more of the following areas: health; governance; community engagement; finance and accounting; management; law; human resources; communications and marketing; information management; labour relations and public sector knowledge. Members of the public who represent the linguistic, cultural and geographic diversity of the LHIN region, including representatives from the Francophone and Indigenous communities, are encouraged to apply for this vacancy. Directors are appointed by Order-In-Council for a term of up to three years and are subject to renewal. It is anticipated that a LHIN Board Director may be expected to commit approximately two days per month to Board matters with additional time for Committees. A LHIN Board Director will receive a per diem rate of $200.00. To fulfill the board’s mandate, board members often travel to attend off-site meetings with residents and providers, to meet ministry officials, and to participate in working groups and educational sessions. Appointees will receive reimbursement for reasonable expenses in accordance with the Management Board of Cabinet’s Travel, Meal and Hospitality Expenses Directive and LHIN Board Per Diem and Expense Guidelines. Following direction from the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care, all expenses for members of the Central East LHIN Board will be posted on Central East LHIN’s public website. For information on the Central East LHIN, please visit our website at www.centraleastlhin.on.ca. Downloadable application forms are available at www.pas.gov.on.ca. All application forms, quoting file number PAS-16116, must be received by October 18, 2016 at Public Appointments Secretariat, Room 2440, Whitney Block, 99 Wellesley Street West, Toronto, ON M7A 1W4. Alternatively, you may apply online or by fax at 416-327-2633. Only applicants selected for an interview will be contacted.
