Artist Adrian Hayles works on a reggae mural on a building at Eglinton and Oakwood avenues Friday. It is a tribute to reggae artists, and is expected to be completed mid-month.

A wall at Oakwood and Eglinton avenues will soon pay homage to some of Toronto’s biggest

reggae artists in the form of a 1,200-square-foot mural.

A thriving hub for Jamaican reggae artists in the 1970s and ’80s, the mural at 1529 Eglinton Ave. W., next to Reggae Lane

alleyway, will feature artists Pluggy Satchmo, Bernie Pitters, Leroy Sibbles, Lord Tanamo, Calypso Rose, Jay Douglas, Stranger Cole, Johnny Osbourne, Jojo Bennett, Nana

McLean, Haile Selassie, Bob Marley, the Skatalites, as well as the symbol of the Lion of Judah.

jUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com The Wychwood Branch of Toronto Public Library is gearing up for an expansion that could see it more than double its square footage and add new programs and features.

The proposed plan calls for the library to grow to 15,000 square feet from its current 6,381, with updated and upgraded facilities.

“We’re looking to add additional programming space, expand our children’s space, have better zoned areas for children and adults and have additional programming rooms,” said Susan Martin, the TDSB’s divisional support manager for branch capital projects.

An upgraded technology space is expected to complement the library’s more traditional offerings, though Martin said it’s still too early to determine what that will entail.

“We’re not going to expand hugely if we’re not going to add a computer learning centre,” she noted. “We still need to figure out what kind of programming we’ll have there, but one of the things we’re doing at the library (in general) is to introduce technology and give the members of the public exposure

The Wychwood Branch Public Library is set for an expansion.

to it.”

The plans could include a 3D printer, a popular addition to the Toronto Reference Library and a branch in Scarborough.

Overall, Toronto Public Librar y has earmarked $7.684 million for the library redesign through its capital budget. Apart from financial concerns, the redesign will face challenges due to its historic status.

“Certainly, the library itself is a heritage building,” said councillor Joe Mihevc, in whose ward the Wychwood library stands. “Its front was constructed in 1916, so next year will be its 100th.

It’s one of four libraries in Toronto that were built by the Carnegie Foundation to support literacy back then.”

Mihevc said the redesign could allow for anything from a seniors space to an innovative space for youth, both of

which he said are needed in the community. Placing books on movable shelving units could also open the space up for public events.

“This will be a real cornerstone of the community,” Mihevc said.

Provided the planning process goes smoothly, work on the new library could start as soon as next spring with an eye to completion in 2017, though Martin noted the plan is still in its early stages.

“The plan is to have a completed design in the next six to nine months,” she said. “We’re hoping to be in construction by this time next year, but there are a lot of steps to go through before then.”

Those steps include community consultation.

A public open house is to be organized at Artscape Wy c h w o o d B a r n s i n September.

Time for the Parapan Am Games to shine W hile we’re still basking in the glow of the success of the recent Pan Am Games in Toronto, it’s important not to forget that an equally prestigious athletic event opens tomorrow.

The Toronto 2015 Parapan Am Games run from Aug. 7 to 15, and residents can do their part to make these Games just as successful as the Pan Ams. The Parapans officially open Friday with ceremonies at York University’s CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletics Stadium starting at 5:45 p.m.

The Parapan Am Games in Toronto will feature more than 1,600 athletes from 28 countries competing in 15 sports. As was the case with the Pan Am Games, competition will take place at a our view number of Toronto venues.

There’s track and field at York Celebrate University, swimming, sitting and wheelchair tennis our athletes volleyball at the University of Toronto Aug. 7 to 15 Scarborough, and wheelchair basketball at the Mattamy Centre downtown. There’s archery at Varsity Stadium, and the cycling road races at Ontario Place.

Markham, Mississauga, Milton and Whitby are also hosting events for those hoping to catch Parapan action beyond Toronto’s borders.

As always, these Games serve as a qualifier for the Paralympics. That’s especially important for a number of top Canadian athletes and teams including the men’s wheelchair basketball team. Our men’s teams are three-time gold medal winners at the Paralympics (including gold at the London 2012 Games) and they are looking to continue their golden ways come the Rio 2016 Paralympics. Their first step on that road comes at the Toronto Parapan Am Games. The Canadian women’s wheelchair basketball team also has an impressive resume, having won Paralympic gold medals in 1992, 1996 and 2000.

The excitement for the Parapan Am Games begins this week with the arrival of the torch relay, which will be in Toronto today with stops at Corus Quay, Inukshuk Park, Queens Quay and Yonge Street, and David Pecaut Square for a community celebration at 12:30 p.m. that will feature a guest appearance by Rick Hansen. Tomorrow, the torch relay visits Variety Village in Scarborough, Queen’s Park, and the Native Canadian Centre of Toronto on Spadina Road in advance of the opening ceremonies.

Straight talk about the dog days of summer

M

y message box got a serious workout over the long weekend. It was standing and screaming room only in there. Everybody was whining up a storm.

But it wasn’t about the hot weather. It was about the phrase du jour referring to it.

Q. Jamie, I always hate the beginning of August.

The only expression we ever hear is the ‘dog days of summer’. We’re bombarded with it. The dog days of summer, the dog days of summer, the dog days of summer. Enough already.

This has been going on for donkey’s years.

No other creatures get even a mention until they’re over. It makes me angry as a bear, I tell ya.

When are we finally going to get equal time in the summer for the rest of the animal kingdom?

– Gord the Gorilla A. In the next few minutes, Gordo. I don’t want to

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY let the cat out of the bag, but a little bird told me that by the end of the column all will be forgotten and you’ll be happy as a clam.

Q. Do you really mean it, Jamie? I’ve had ants in my pants over this since I was knee-high to a grasshopper.

– Karina the Kangaroo A. Cross my heart. This comes straight from the horse’s mouth.

Q. Wait a minute. I thought you just got through saying it was a bird that gave you the news.

This all sounds rather fishy if you ask me.

– Arnold the Armadillo A. Don’t get your feathers in a bunch. The horse called first. The bird tweeted right after. OK? Q. Jamie, do you mind if I talk turkey for a second?

– Penelope the Peacock A. Would you be a lamb and try back around Thanksgiving? I promised to resolve this dog days of summer controversy before the end of the column. If I don’t do it, I have a hunch I’ll be hearing about it until the cows come home.

Q. You’ll be hearing about it long after they arrive, too. No other animals can get on the map this time of year. It’s the nature of the beast, I’m afraid. Don’t you think it’s time to accept that you’re barking up the wrong tree?

– Zoe the Zebra.

A. On the contrary, I was about to pull a rabbit out of a hat here. Anything is possible. All you have to do is believe.

Q. Yeah and pigs might fly, too. Sorry, but I’m with Zoe on this.

– Wally the Walrus A. Boo hoo. I’m crying crocodile tears. I hate to break it to the two of you,

but it’s all just water off this duck’s back. I guarantee you’ll both be eating crow.

But it’s not up to me. I’ll leave the deciding vote to the final questioner of the day.

Q. I believe. I believe. I believe. Now, with that out of the way, let’s get to the most important part of this discussion. After I’m done eating, any chance of going back for seconds? As far as I’m concerned one can never get enough crow and you can see by my attached selfie that I’m a growing boy.

– Harvey the Hippotamus A. That I can, and thanks for tipping the scales in my favour. But as for the extra helping? Well, I wouldn’t count my chickens before they hatch if I were you.

Mural a backdrop for entertainment events >>>from page 1 and public arts organization The STEPS Initiative, the mural began to take shape in late July with the removing of flaking paint from a previous mural. Assisted by youth from the Macaulay Centre for Child and Youth Development and surrounding area, the reggae mural is expected to be complete by mid-August.

“We explored a few different design ideas,” Hayles said, adding Bob Marley, Haile Selassie, and the Lion of Judah were consistent figures in the conception process.

“Initially we were very hesitant about painting community members out of fear of missing or neglecting key figures. Ultimately it was decided that the selected musicians needed to be immortalized.”

“

The mural will add vibrancy to the space. That area was an important hub for reggae.

– Vera Belazelkoska

A graduate of Humber College’s graphic design program, Hayles has worked on murals for 4 Life Natural Foods in Kensington Market, for Riverdale Hub a t G re e n w o o d Av e n u e and Gerrard Street, and at Underpass Park near the DVP and Eastern Avenue. “ T h e m u ra l w i l l a d d vibrancy to the space,” said Vera Belazelkoska, manager of community projects for STEPS Initiative. “That area was an important hub for reggae.”

Once the work of art is complete, she’s hoping it will act as a backdrop for future arts and entertainment events, she said.

The new mural will cover an old one at least a decade old made up of cars, a person and a compass, Belazelkoska said, adding the once vibrant piece is now faded and flaky.

“Adrian’s talent is behind all of this,” she said of the lead reggae mural artist.

“He’s been a great artist to work with.”

T h e m u ra l h a s b e e n f u n d e d by t h e C i t y o f Toronto’s StreetARToronto program, with support from Metrolinx, EglintonLawrence Councillor Josh Colle’s office, the Macaulay Centre for Child and Youth Development, the Toronto Parking Authority and the York-Eglinton BIA.

same time, raising the fares on tokens and Metropasses can’t bring them too close to the cash fare, or people will simply start paying cash.

“If there is a light at the end of the tunnel it is the Presto card, which will be solidly in place by the end of next year,” he said. “You can raise fares by two cents if you want to take it from the Presto card.

That will allow for more variability.”

Mihevc said he hasn’t given up hope on persuading Toronto Council to increase its subsidy to the TTC, and somewhat fainter hope in convincing the provincial government to fund the TTC operations.

“But when the province and the city weigh in there are only two strategies left – one is to raise fares, and one is to cut service,” he said

“Canada broke its alltime medal total at a Pan Am Games by reaching 197 medals. This is an outstanding achievement and reflects the hard work of our athletes, coaches and National Sport Federations.

Congratulations to Team Canada – you have made your country so proud and have inspired future generations of Canadian athletes,” said Marcel Abut, president of the COC.

“The Games started and ended strong, with more than one million tickets sold for the Pan Am Games and more than 120 sold out events,” said Saäd Rafi, chief executive officer, TO2015.

“We’re expecting similar momentum for the Parapan Am Games, with ticket sales fast approaching 50,000 of the approximately 200,000 tickets available.
