Mount Dennis musician AHI ready for Buskerfest LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com There is no rivalry among musicians at the annual Toronto International BuskerFest for Epilepsy; instead there’s a feeling of camaraderie, according to songwriter and independent

recording artist Ahkinoah Izarh – known professionally as AHI (pronounced ‘eye’).

“You’re competing with yourself for the audience’s attention,” said AHI. “You have to play your heart out. It’s overwhelming, in a good way.”

This will be AHI’s second

appearance at BuskerFest, which takes place this year in Woodbine Park over the Sept. 2 to 5 Labour Day weekend. The festival, established in 1999, boasts acts from around the world performing in a wide variety of mediums including comedians, musicians,

daredevils, magicians, circus acts, clowns, contortionists, acrobats, aerialists, puppets, and entertainers there are no words to describe. “There is raw talent everywhere. Everyone is so talented; everyone is giving 110 per cent,” AHI said. “You have a mutual respect.”

The Mount Dennis resident and self-described emerging artist is no stranger to busking having begun doing so on Toronto’s harbourfront. The Brampton native did not grow up in a musical family; he got his start in a band as a rapper-poet. >>>AHI, page 5

Putting on your best sour face for Lyme disease TARA HATHERLY thatherly@insidetoronto.com A young woman from Scarborough is challenging everyone to bite a lime to raise awareness of Lyme disease.

Paige Spencer brought the Lyme Disease Challenge to Brad Duguid’s office Wednesday, Aug. 10, where she and the ScarboroughCentre MPP put their best sour faces on display, posing for photos while biting lime wedges. The challenge encourages people to bite a lime wedge, take a photo and share it on social media to spread awareness of the disease. Photos are shared online using the hashtags #LymeDiseaseChallenge and #TakeABiteOutOfLyme. Like the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, people doing the Lyme Disease Challenge can nominate others to participate.

After being nominated, people can choose to upload a photo of their own and/or donate to a Lyme disease organization.

Spencer has late-stage Lyme disease. The 22 year old believes she was infected 19 years ago, likely in the Rouge Valley, though she said it’s hard to know exactly where she contracted it.

She went undiagnosed for 14 years until testing positive for Lyme disease five years ago.

“I love this challenge, it’s great awareness,” Spencer said.

“It’s quite amazing how one simple act can go so far and affect so many people in a positive way. People will remember it, it’s

something that makes its mark, and that’s so important.”

In Ontario, Lyme disease is spread through bites from infected blacklegged ticks, also called deer ticks. Through the challenge, Spencer hopes to make more people aware of how to protect from tick bites, and what to do in the event of a bite.

“It’s so important that people are aware of how to remove a tick properly, you don’t just rip it out, there are steps,” she said, noting proper removal helps reduce the risk of disease transmission.

Blacklegged ticks sit on tall grasses and shrubs, with arms outstretched, waiting to grab on to animals or humans. People can reduce the risk of tick bites by staying in the centre of trails, and wearing DEET-based bug repellents and light-coloured clothing that makes it easier to spot ticks, which can be as small as poppy seeds. Wearing long-sleeve shirts, and pants tucked into socks, also helps prevent bites.

To remove a tick properly, grab the head of the tick as close to the skin as possible with fine-tip tweezers or a tick remover from a tick kit, pulling straight away from the skin gently but firmly. You can also get help from a medical professional.

People should do “tick checks” after visiting bushy areas to catch ticks before they bite, Spencer noted, and know the symptoms.

Early symptoms of Lyme disease can include

headache and fatigue, fever and chills, and muscle and joint pain, as well as a stiff neck and rash. Left untreated, the disease can cause heart and neurological problems.

Duguid was happy to take the challenge and help Paige raise awareness.

“From the minute I met Paige, she’s been an inspiration. She’s not only been a trooper in fighting through the disease herself, but I think she’s been an example of what you can do to make a difference for others,” he said.

While dealing with the debilitating disease has been “hell” for Spencer, she remains positive and takes life a day at a time.

“It’s been a roller coaster,” she shared. “I’ve been in and out of hospitals all over the States for treatment, pain so unimaginable that you literally think you’re dying.”

She’s happy the Canadian government is creating a federal framework on Lyme disease, and the Ontario government launched a public awareness campaign as part of its “Combating Lyme Disease Through Collaborative Action: Ontario’s 10 Step Education and Awareness Plan” that was released in July.

“Those are such big steps to me,” Spencer said. “We were at a halt, and nobody wanted to say the L word.”

She hopes the initiatives will spur more government funds for research.

“It’s been a disease that people haven’t understood, it can be very hard to diagnose, extremely hard to understand,” she said.

Paige Spencer (right), who suffers from Lyme Disease, joins Scarborough-Centre MPP Brad Duguid in the ‘Take a Bite Out of Lyme Disease’ challenge at his constituency office.

“That’s why we need to move forward, so we can get funding, we can get proper research done.”

Along with the challenge, Spencer is spreading awareness and offering support through The Lyme Files, a Facebook page she operates. She is also in the process of founding Lyme Youth of Canada, a support group for young people.

She stressed that while Lyme is a scary disease, she wants people to be aware, not afraid.

Pressure on Toronto’s watermain work RAHUL GUPTA rgupta@insidetoronto.com A road closed by construction – asphalt torn up, dust and debris everywhere, workers in construction helmets milling about – has become such a common sight it’s likely you won’t pay much thought to the work taking place, much less what’s going on underneath.

This summer, the City of Toronto is tackling an unprecedented amount of construction, necessitated by an infrastructure backlog of more than $2.6 billion; $1.6 billion of that is for Toronto Water projects, including replacing well-aged watermains.

By tripling spending – Toronto has already committed $5.6-billion for water upgrades over the next 10 years, the largest infrastructure program in the country – the city projects to reduce its underground-infrastructure backlog down to $261 million by 2025.

“We’re making a concerted effort to address our backlog of renewal needs,” said Michael D’Andrea, director of the city’s engineering and construction services.

This year, the city has earmarked more than $550 million for infrastructure, $227 million of that for watermains and another $71 million for basement flooding protection, which includes “upsizing” sewer infrastructure to absorb the deluge of extreme thunderstorms – a more frequent occurrence due to climate change.

A total of 238 kilometres worth of sewer and watermain replacement is scheduled for completion by the end of 2016.

Some of Toronto’s sewer infrastructure dates back to the 1850s.

That might seem like a long time, but it’s actually the underneath infrastructure installed over the post-war period which is degrading faster.

Unlike the older water pipes which are thicker and have proven more durable, it’s the thinner walled spun cast models located outside of downtown which are corroding and breaking down much faster, according to

Dan Pearce/MetrolanD

Above, a construction worker prepares a pipe to be fitted for the watermain replacement work that is taking place on River Street at Shuter Street this summer.

D’Andrea. “(Spun cast pipe is) the worst infrastructure in the ground and when a watermain breaks in the winter, it’s usually one of those,” he said.

Another need for replacing watermains is the ongoing intensification fuelled

by Toronto’s development boom.

A building going up means more pressure on the water system, so planning must account for anticipated increases to population, even if that’s 25 years away.

“We can’t forecast how quickly developers will turn that land into development, we just need to be thinking about whether they’re likely to and make sure we’ve got the infrastructure,” said D’Andrea.

On River Street, one such project got underway this summer between Queen Street East and Gerrard Street.

The work is ambitious, as it will include a complete roadreconstruction plus beautification.

Before any of that happens three crews of approximately eight, including a foreman, a backhoe operator, pipe layers and general labourers, are

replacing the pipes which given the age of the neighbourhood are of the inferior variety and likely made of lead, presenting possible health risks.

The workers must also keep a close eye for existing infrastructure such as gas mains or subway tracks. Planning helps map out the locations and ensures utility companies are made aware of the work, crucial given the inherent dangers of unwittingly interfering with a live gas main.

“If you break that stuff you get a free ride to the moon,” said Harry Persaud, a senior engineer with Toronto roads.

Persaud, who was on site at a job inspecting the work carried out by a private contractor, estimates around 40 metres of watermain replacement is completed per day.

While the city tries to coordinate the necessary water and road work into one project in order to minimize expenditures, the ever-increasing urgency to get broken or degraded pipes replaced means sometimes that’s just not going to happen, admitted D’Andrea.

“Sometimes you just can’t wait,” he said.

Toronto right to make water work a priority

S

pending billions of dollars on replacing wellaged watermains and other infrastructure projects may not be the most exciting thing in Toronto’s budget.

But it’s something that should have been a top priority long time ago.

As noted in the Metroland special report featured in this week’s edition, the infrastructure backlog is now more than $2.6 billion with $1.6 billion of that amount allocated for Toronto Water projects.

And according to the City of Toronto website, there is an average of 1,600 watermain breaks annually, resulting from either the mechanical or structural failure of an underground pipe.

One would think the older our view pipes, some dating back to the 1850s, would be the ones to City puts aside blame for the majority of waterbreaks. $5.6 billion for main But Michael D’Andrea, director water projects of the city’s engineering and construction services, explains the thinner walled spun cast models installed over the post-war period are actually degrading faster.

Most of those pipes are located outside of downtown, and not surprisingly the highest break rates are experienced in North York, Scarborough and Etobicoke as the watermains in these areas are also located in predominantly clay soil as opposed to sand.

It’s a city-wide issue and with more development taking place across the city due to Toronto’s development boom, the financial implications of not replacing well-aged watermains will be more devastating than the financial costs of not doing so.

The higher frequency of extreme thunderstorms due to climate change is certainly not going to ease the urgency of taking on such a huge infrastructure project.

So it’s a good start for the city to commit $5.6 billion for water upgrades over the next 10 years to reduce its underground-infrastructure backlog down to $265 million by 2025.

Let’s hope this concerted effort to address the backlog of renewal needs will continually be backed by a healthy budget. Otherwise, expect more stories of watermain breaks leaving many residents without running water especially during the winter.

column

Some food for thought for watching Rio Olympics During the Rio Olympics, those of us early birds in the office make it a point to gather for a Games recap before work starts. It’s always a very animated discussion.

And Drake is kind enough to provide the music. No, not that Drake. We wish. We’re talking Melvin Drake. He’s in IT. You haven’t lived until you’ve heard IT rap.

Anyhow, the game plan for the get-togethers is to get everybody up to speed with what happened the day before and make them aware of what to keep an eye on in the day ahead. But with a week and a half of Rio 2016 TV telecasts behind us, we decided to veer from the usual babble operandi and turn our gaze to the Olympic coverage itself. We focused on one thing in particular our biggest Games telecast pet peeve: the announcers’ use of the word “medal”.

Medal is no longer a noun anymore. It appears to be strictly a verb. Before an event announcers routinely say he or she is expected to medal or

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY not expected to medal. Then after it’s completed, that he or she medalled or wasn’t able to medal.

The use of medal as a verb is nothing new. It has been going on for the last VI Summer Games and V Winter Games and many viewers talk this way too, now. But the real worry within our group is that other Olympic terms are going to follow that lead.

Announcers have turned a lot of other nouns into verbs and fans are copying them instantly. Listen closely to your daily Olympic conversations viewers and you’ll see what I mean. They now go something like this: 1. “So? Don’t keep me in suspense. Did they anthem yet?”

“Yep. You just missed it.

They podiumed 10 minutes ago.”

2. “Hey, did that kayaker silver again like he did in

London 2012?”

“Not quite. But at least he ended up bronzing.”

Well, we had our usual lively back and forth and the general consensus was that we were all getting worked up over nothing. So it was time to get to the real purpose of our daily Olympic huddle: share a quick bite before work. It was my turn to pick up the tab, so I proceeded to take the breakfast orders.

“So how do pancakes sound everyone,” I cheerily inquired.

“None for me today thanks, Jamie,” Jackie responded. “I already waffled.”

“I’ll get you next time then.

What about you, Arjun?”

“Put me down for next time, too. I’m afraid I already French Toasted.”

“Zayanna?”

“No can do. I burritoed before I left. Twice, actually.

I’m stuffed.”

Five more co-workers also passed. One because he’d oatmealed. Another because she’d BLT’d. The other three saying they’d honeybunned,

doughnutted and bageled.

Heck, even Drake declined and he had only double doubled, for heaven’s sake.

There was just one person left. “So what about you Erin,” I mumbled meekly.

“Hate to do this to you, big guy, but I’m going to have to take a rain check too.

Er, I mean, pancake check.

Whatever. The point is I forgot all about you buying breakfast today and I Egg McMuffinned on the way over.”

“You mean the Mcway Mcover, I hope,” I corrected.

Nobody McLaughed.

To u g h Mc C r ow d . T h e $64,000 McQuestion was: do I McContinue?

I thought about it, but what’s the point? It was obvious I didn’t have a chance of humour medalling in this group. Better just to McQuit while I’m McAhead.

Loss of 12 Division would hurt York, meeting told LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com Many York residents shared their fear of losing the 12 Division station as part of a strategy to modernize the Toronto Police Service, which was discussed at a community consultation meeting with Chief Mark Saunders, local councillors, and Mayor John Tory, last week.

The meeting, at the Learning Enrichment Foundation on Aug. 9, was the fourth of eight to be held to solicit public input on recommendations made in the Transformation Task Force’s interim report, called, ‘The Way Forward: Modernizing the Toronto Police Service.’

To p o f m i n d a m o n g the dozens of people who attended was the recommendation to consider consolidating some police stations, including 12 Division, at Trethewey and Black Creek drives.

“Amalgamation is the scary part. Weston has a

major footprint in Toronto with a small town feel – parks, trail systems, its own Santa Claus parade. It’s a unique area and we should have our own police station,” Trevor Comur, a local resident and 12 Division Community Police Liaison Committee (CPLC) member told The Guardian.

PartnershiP “How do we keep the community involved and engaged with 12 Division police without the station? It’s a partnership. A lot of things we do is with the police. We bridge our interests together.”

The station is far more than a building to house police cars, stressed Catherine White, co-ordinator of the Eglinton Hill Business Improvement Area (BIA), who revealed the BIA has had to deal with crime in the laneways behind businesses.

“We’ve developed a great relationship with 12 Division police. They’ve helped us clean up the area,” White

said.

Hill, who also operates a children’s group called ‘Stanchester’s Eco Pirates,’ people’s attitudes toward the police have changed because of regular interaction with residents and police.

“They just love them,” White said.

Staff Sgt. Greg Watts, of the Transformation Task Force, stressed the report is not a budget exercise, but rather a blueprint to modernize Toronto’s police force. By closing or amalgamating stations, the goal is to be even more accessible to communities, Watts said.

“Back in the day, police were on foot. Then, technology arrived, with radios and computers. We needed a hub for that,” Watts said.

“We want to give every officer a hub, by providing a tablet where information can be sent so that they can get out in the community more.

Police officers don’t work in buildings or cars; they work in the community.”

Modernization includes objectives like being where the public needs police the most; embracing partnerships to create safe communities; and focusing on the complex needs of a large city.

“Like, traffic congestion.

How do we deal with it,” Watts said. “Or, how do we approach mental health issues?” residents are wary Despite the police service’s enthusiasm for the report, residents remain wary.

Twelve Division, pointed out Greenhills Community Association co-chair Larry Colle, is one of the “poorest” in the city.

“Why is it they go to the poor areas for cutbacks,” Colle said. “Twelve division has become a community hub. The CPLC is so connected to the community.”

Yo r k S o u t h - We s t o n Councillor Frances Nunziata does not support the closure of 12 Division.

“It would make more sense

to merge 13 Division with 12.

Thirteen is not accessible and it’s an older station,” she said.

“A lot of the recommendations are common sense.

I support the majority of them.”

Recommendations include, transitioning from mobile workstations in vehicles to smart devices carried by all officers; turning the lifeguard program over to the City of Toronto; and overhauling the Paid Duty program, to name a few.

Modernization, the mayor said is “absolutely necessary,” while acknowledging that change can be challenging.

Input from residents, said the chief, is the “most important aspect” of the report.

Trust, accountability, transparency and affordability are its guiding principles.

“Everything we do gears toward those principles,” Saunders said.

As she prepared to come back to Toronto in August 2012, Jess started making plans to start a business.

“I was thinking, what are some great products that do well in Japan and we don’t have over here? Onigiri was the thing I decided to focus on,” she recalls.

CONTEST WINNERS

Once back in Toronto, she applied for a competition being delivered by Enterprise Toronto. “I ended up becoming a finalist,” says Jess. “It was a push – if I hadn’t been a part of the contest I might have just sat on the idea.”

Congratulations to: VIP Package Winner SANDRA FINKLER

Jamaica Trip Winner KEN RADWAY

Thank you To everyone who enTered The conTesTs!

“From the competition there was one person who wanted to sell onigiri, so I sold her some,” she says. “Without that contest, I don’t think it would have happened because every encounter since then has led to something else.”

Abokichi looks to make Japanese convenience store snack a Toronto favourite It was during a seven-year stint in Japan that Thornhill-native Jess Mantell first tried Onigiri – a Japanese snack made of rice balls stuffed with pickled or salty ingredients, sometimes wrapped in seaweed and commonly sold at convenience stores and gas stations in the country.

By June 2013, she and her partner Fumi Tsukamoto, had incorporated their onigiri concoctions under Abokichi . At first they rented kitchens and sold through shops but eventually moved into the space at the Annex Hodgepodge, taking the shop over form the previous owner and adding onigiri to the existing menu. They’ve also developed a condiment called Okazu, a crunchy filling made of miso, sesame oil, garlic and chili that they often use to spice up their handmade triangular onigiri.

We’re hoping to build Abokichi out into a brand that’s much larger than these two Japanese food products,” explains Jess.
