Rawlinson Community School students Man found dead in get immersed in aboriginal culture York apartment knew murder suspects: police

CLARK KIM ckim@insidetoronto.com

There was drumming, dancing and food to celebrate National Aboriginal Day at Rawlinson Community School where every student from kindergarten to Grade 8 got involved in some way. “It’s the first time we’ve done anything like this,” said Andrea McPherson, principal of the school near Oakwood Avenue and Vaughan Road. “It’s been a great day.” The festivities started early Friday morning with a smudging ceremony, a purification rite performed by Aboriginal cultures, followed by morning workshops, which included making bread and berry juice, drumming and dancing. “The aboriginal culture embodied all of the things we’ve been working on,” added McPherson, noting the nearly 700 students at the school learned about anti-bullying and understanding people better with respect, love and honour. McPherson also thanked Angela Wicakmakis, a First Nations Ojibway parent at the school, with whom she worked alongside for the past few months to organize the full-day event. Despite the amount of work put

Drummers and singers perform during the National Aboriginal Day event at Rawlinson Community School on Friday.

in to make everything happen, Wicakmakis said it was worth the effort. “I loved that the kids are learning about us and learning about our culture,” said Wicakmakis, whose six-year-old daughter Niibin-Naang attends Rawlinson. The one lesson she hoped the students would learn from the day’s festivities is that everyone is equal. “That’s what it’s all about,” she

said. Elder Elwood Ashawasega from Henvey Inlet First Nations located in Northern Ontario was invited to attend the event and performed in the grand pow wow, a celebratory event consisting of singing, dancing and drumming. “It was heartening to see the little ones were eager to learn about this special day,” he said. “They’re interested and they’re asking a lot of questions.”

Police revealed a missing Kleinburg man whose body was found in York last Friday knew the two people wanted in the first-degree murder investigation. Det. Shawn Mahoney of the homicide department made the revelation during a press conference at police headquarters Monday, but wouldn’t comment on the relationship between the victim and the suspects, manner of death, or motive. Video surveillance played during the conference showed Clyde Marshall, 36, and Sabrina Chouart, 27, walking down the hallway of the eighth floor of 230 Woolner Ave. at 4:10 a.m. Wednesday, June 10, about five hours after Sina Parsi, 32, was last seen leaving a soccer game near Teston Road and Hwy. 400 around 11:20 p.m. the previous evening. In the video, the two suspects appear to have full backpacks on their backs, indicating they weren’t planning to return to the Jane Street and St. Clair Avenue unit they had lived in for two years, Mahoney said. He added that investigators believe Parsi was inside the unit at the time of the recording, but would not say whether he was alive or dead when the footage was recorded. He noted police believe Parsi entered the apartment around midnight June 10 and died sometime that day. Marshall, who is also known to go by the name Marcus, is seen hooking a leash to a large brown dog. The dog was subequently located Monday evening, police said. An abandoned dog, tied to a post and left alone, had been brought into Toronto Animal Services in the Islington-

Dundas We s t a r e a . Police believe Chouart and Marshall have been travelling without the dog since the early morning hours of Saturday. Numerous unverified sightings of the pair hitchhiking have been made in Northern and Eastern Ontario, Mahoney said, Photos/TORONTO adding police POLICE SERVICE believe the Clyde Marshall, suspects don’t top, and Sabrina have the means C h o u a r t a r e to travel outside w a n t e d i n t h e the country.

nformation overload is one of the defining characteristics of this generation. There’s so much of it everywhere, and often it’s unsolicited and uninformed, which makes disseminating the truth from the fiction a difficult task. When content is packaged similarly, or arrives to you en-masse at rapid speed, how do you discover the information that will help you become better informed, versus the content that may lead you astray? There’s an effort underway to shine a light on quality information where journalism is concerned. Dubbed JournalismIS, the campaign aims to promote professional journalism and all that it stands for: reliability, accuracy and accountability. Starting soon you’ll see advertisements in our print our view editionof The York Guardian and other newspapers, on television ‘News is the and online touting the benefits of good journalism. lifeblood of We’re great at telling other people’s stories, but as journalists democracy’ we’re not great at telling our own stories and promoting what we do. That’s why the team at The Guardian and all other Metroland newspapers in Ontario have joined forces with major news outlets, media associations, unions and journalism schools to support the JournalismIS campaign. The volume of today’s information and range of opinion challenges the very nature of our industry, so we need to support one another in preserving and promoting the work we do. We need to demonstrate the power behind good journalism in engaging the public and fostering a stronger connection between individuals and the neighbourhoods in which they live. “News is the lifeblood of democracy,” said Mary Agnes Walsh, campaign spokesperson and Winnipeg Free Press reporter at the JournalismIS launch in Toronto last week. “Our campaign is aimed at initiating a wider conversation about the value of journalism and what we all need to do to support a robust journalistic culture in Canadian society.” So, we invite our readers to tell us what they look for in good journalism. Does that come across in the pages of The York Guardian and online at www. insidetoronto.com? Where would you make suggestions for improvement? Our news team holds firm to its position of objectivity, but we also remain accountable to those we serve – and that’s you, our reader. Email us your thoughts to press@insidetoronto.com

column

Two minutes for piling on the pylons When you head out each day, how far do you get before you run into an orange and black cone? A couple of miles? A mile? Half a mile, maybe? I can’t even make it up the street anymore without coming face to face with one of those ubiquitous party poopers. It’s as if the little devils are following me around. It’s one thing to come across them around highways, parkways and expressways, or bridges and railings, or public transit routes. We’re all aware there’s no getting away from cones in those locations. They come with the territory. But having them take over your neighbourhood, especially in summer, just doesn’t feel right. I’m not talking cones for rideathons, walkathons, 10k runs or marathons, where they’re up the night before and taken away the

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY night after. These events energize a community. What’s more, they come and go in the blink of an eye. I’m talking the cones that hang around seemingly forever, chaperoning jobs that never seem to get finished, like infrastructure upgrades or street maintenance. What’s curious about the latter scenario is there is typically a gap between when the cones are first plopped on the sidewalk and the project they’re there to oversee actually starts. It’s not uncommon to see such cones sitting all by their lonesome for long periods of time, before you see any activity. Moaning about it isn’t going to change anything, of course, so I say if you

can’t beat ’em join ’em. While the cones are out with nothing to do before the intended job begins, why not put them to work taking care of something else they are often associated with while they’re waiting, like a TV production, for example. That way you could kill two birds with one cone. During the time they’re idle, you could have them earning their keep while you shoot a reality TV series. By merging projects you could also close fewer streets, which would save taxpayer money and reduce neighbourhood aggravation. An added benefit is that you could even include the little pylons in the series. Not only would it be great PR for the cones, which are single-handedly taking the rap for slowing the city down to a crawl, they might become overnight sensations.

I can just see the shows now: Survivor Downtown Toronto: Sixteen carefree, captivating, charismatic cones protect the tallest new condo going up in the city. Who will be the last cone standing? So You Think You Can Sit There All Day Like a Bump On A Log?: Who will be the last cone sitting? Extreme Makeover: Cone Edition This Old Cone Toronto’s Next Top Cone The list is long. Who knows, if the idea catches on, they just might put smiles on our faces at rush hour, instead of frowns, as we inch our way to and from work each day. Film at 11.

Maybe those holding power in this city and this province want to eventually stamp out the odious practice of carding by police and maybe they don’t. But if they do, a word of advice: it’s hard to stamp something out walking tip-toe. That seems to be what the provincial government had in mind this week when it sent Community Safety Minister Yasir Naqvi out to announce new regulations this fall to govern police when they stop and question members of the public not suspected of a crime. The regulation isn’t a ban of the investigative practice that has been shown to disproportionately target young men of colour in Toronto, and Naqvi made that clear when he announced it on Tuesday. The regulations, yet unreleased, will simply require that stops by police not be arbitrary. It isn’t going over any better with community groups than the policy approved earlier

david nickle the city this year at the Toronto Police Services Board — a policy that amounted to little more than guidelines. Today, Mayor John Tory will make an attempt to stop carding, bringing a motion to the Police Services Board along with a mea culpa, for supporting the policy to begin with this spring. It’s a position Tory was shamed into taking, by a gathering of highly influential Torontonians and a seminal essay by Toronto journalist Desmond Cole describing the indignity and traumatizing effect of the practice. It’s a wonder that the provincial government isn’t taking a lesson from Tory’s experience and matching his newfound disdain. It’s true that police value carding as an intelligence-

gathering strategy. But one wonders at the intensity of the defence of the practise by Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders and his predecessor, Bill Blair. Crime rates have been declining for years in Toronto, and it is unlikely police enforcement, or lack thereof, has had as much to do with that as have simple demographic shifts. At the same time, there’s a wider context emerging, as evidence emerges that police across North America are engaging in sometimes quite odious acts of racial profiling and violence toward people of colour. It is perplexing to see political leadership indulge the digging-of-heels that persists in policing ranks. Tory learned the folly of that, but he had to be taught. The provincial Liberals seem bound to learn that lesson themselves.

touts improved off-peak service wTTC The TTC is promising more improvements to off-peak transit service. At a press conference Monday TTC chair Josh Colle announced 52 bus and streetcar routes, which also includes the city’s four rapid transit lines, will have 10 minutes or better service outside of the rush hour period, starting in the fall. Details about the plans are vague, but the result promised by Colle will be shorter waits, especially outside of the downtown core. The TTC board is expected to approve the improvements to service at its June 22 meeting. TO FOCUS ON NEIGHBOURHOODS wPiPS

This year’s season of Planners in Public Spaces (PiPS) will focus on neighbourhoods. The initiative, a pet project of outspoken chief city planner Jennifer Keesmaat, is intended to make the often insiders-only world of city planning more accessible to the public. Every year since 2013, the series

rahul gupta TO in TRANSIT places civic planners in an informal setting to talk about city building themes one-on-one with locals. PiPS’ new season was officially announced yesterday at a launch party at Tranzac Club. For the full calendar check out www. toronto.ca/planning/pips MAPS TO GUIDE TOURISTS wINTERACTIVE

This week the city launched a network of interactive signs intended to make the city more accessible to the thousands of visitors expected to attend the Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. The Toronto 360 Wayfinding Strategy, a.k.a TO360, includes two sizes of “info totems”, descriptive pillars depicting areas of interest and local maps, as well as “finger posts” which literally point the way to local landmarks. The new signage is found in the Entertainment District, St. Lawrence and most prominently in the Financial

District, whose Business Improvement Area helped with planning and partial funding of the $800,000 pilot project. TO HOST OPEN HOUSE NEXT WEEK wMETROLINX

Want to know more about Metrolinx’s plans to build a new facility to house new transit vehicles to operate on the Finch West LRT? The province’s transit planning agency has committed to having the light rail line completed by 2021. It’s already purchased a stretch of vacant land on Finch Avenue West between Norfinch Drive and York Gate Boulevard which will serve as a maintenance and storage facility for the LRT vehicles if an Environmental Assessment on the project is approved. Metrolinx will hold an open house on its plans for the facility on Wednesday, June 24 starting at 7 p.m. at St. Wilfrid Catholic School, located at 1685 Finch Ave. W.

Jane is a beautiful, sweet 43 year-old nurse and looking for the right man. Jane has never been married, has no children, and no baggage. She loves football, hockey, going to concerts, and being outdoors. She is very down to earth, and easy to get along with. She is a great listener and always wants to help others. Jane is a very charitable person; she donates and volunteers for many causes including children’s charities and animal shelters. Jane doesn’t drink or smoke, she is not one to go to bars, and she has had a hard time meeting the right person in her small community. She is always up to try new things and is open to new experiences. She’s a bit shy at first, and she is nervous about dating, but really wants to meet the right person to settle down with. She is very open and accepting of people, she’s non-judgmental, and cares more about who someone is on the inside rather than the outside. She is looking for a good man who is energetic, fun, adventurous, has a good sense of humor, is down-to-earth, and a little bit romantic.
