Services return to Humber River’s Church site

®

centre shot

DOMINIK KUREK dkurek@insidetoronto.com The Humber River Hospital (HRH) Church Street site reopened Monday for some medical services on a temporary basis. The site had been closed since October.

The emergency department is not reopening.

“This move of services to the Church location is happening because the sale of the Keele Street site,” said Gerard Power, director of public and corporate communications at HRH, in an email.

“This plan allows the Central LHIN (Local Health Integration Network) and Humber River Hospital to continue consultations around which services are most needed in northwest Toronto. This move allows services to continue to be provided while these consultations are being held.”

There is no timeline for how long services will be operating at the Church site and to where, if anywhere, they will eventually be moved.

The services include dialysis, out-patient physiotherapy and the Community Care Access >>>community, page 9

Q. When did spring 2016 officially begin in Toronto?

A. Excellent question. The answer is, it all depends.

Q. On what?

A. Excellent question. On who you’re talking to.

Q. In case you hadn’t noticed, I’m talking to you, noodlebrain.

A. That’s Mr. Noodle-Brain to you. Or you can call me by my stage name DJ Noodle B. Q. Hey. Why didn’t you say excellent question first?

A. Excellent question. That’s because even a child of four could tell it wasn’t a question.

It was, in fact, an S. Q. What the heck is an S? A. Excellent question. S is short for statement.

Q. So why did you answer me if it wasn’t a question?

A. Excellent question. I did not, in fact, answer you. I merely made a comment.

Q. Can someone tell me how I get myself into these things?

A. Excellent question. I’d say it’s because you’re a great set-up man, a real team player. Q. Any chance we can just start over from the beginning?

jamie wayne BUT SERIOUSLY A. Excellent question. Sorry.

There’s only a certain amount of space available and we’ve already used up 60 per cent.

Q. What I meant was I just want to go back to my original excellent question. When did spring begin this year?

A. Excellent question. As I said, it all depends on who you’re talking to. After which you strayed from the matter at hand by adding a sarcastic S in lieu of the expected Q, so I couldn’t give you the requisite A. Q. My bad. So whom exactly would it depend on me talking to, then?

A. Excellent question. Either somebody who follows the astronomical calendar or somebody who follows the meteorological calendar.

Q. Now we’re getting somewhere. I have two calendars and I follow both regularly, but I don’t know the difference.

One is from a fast food sub

franchise, the other is from a fast food burger joint. So which is which?

A. Excellent question. The one from the former has free sub coupons plastered all over it. The one from the latter is loaded with free burger coupons.

Q. You’re missing the point.

What I was getting at, your Noodleness, is which of my calendars is astronomical and which is meteorological?

A. Excellent question. They’re both astronomical.

Q. Wonderful. So, according to them, when did spring begin? And since space is of the essence, can you find it in your heart not to say excellent question one last time?

A. Relax. I wouldn’t dare say it with so much on the line.

Besides, it wouldn’t make sense, seeing as how you just reeled off two excellent questions.

TTC ridership dips: report

robot ready

creating code: Eric, left, and Leung work to program their robot for a jousting match, during a program hosted at the Mount Dennis library on Saturday.

Lower than anticipated TTC ridership could mean a possible $30-million revenue shortfall for the TTC this year.

Disappointing employment numbers in the Toronto region, declining Metropass sales, and other factors are playing a role in disappointing ridership levels for the year, according to TTC staff.

If the numbers persist it’s projected the commission, which has enjoyed successive years of record growth, could fall below 540 million rides by year-end – a decrease from 2015’s final numbers. A staff report was to be presented to the TTC board this week, estimates if the levels remain where they are there could be between eight and 13 million fewer than the 553 million rides projected for the year.

“Based on a 2016 ridership projection in the range of 540 million, the resultant impact on the 2016 TTC operating budget will be substantial. The fare revenue budget shortfall could

be in the neighbourhood of $30 million,” states the report.

TTC’s Brad Ross said the report is intended to act as a heads up to the board and is not explicitly recommending any action, however the city, which provides an annual operating subsidy to the TTC, will need to cover any deficit.

TTCriders, the city’s largest transit advocacy group, blames years of fare hikes for the disappointing results, and fears cuts to service to trim costs will result in an even steeper decline to ridership.

“Fare hikes have been rising faster than inflation. At the same time service levels have not improved. Bus and street car routes are often late, and overcrowding is common,” said the group in a statement.

If it does face a year-end deficit, the TTC has limited options beyond cutting service or petitioning the city to boost next year’s subsidy.

The report notes the TTC has already trimmed some $15 million in non-operating costs and cannot absorb the shortfall in next year’s budget.

Rob Ford succumbs to rare form of cancer at the age of 46 DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com

Councillor Rob Ford was amalgamated Toronto’s third mayor.

In a single term of office he transformed city government even as he sharply divided public opinion and through his personal life drew intense and often unwelcome international attention.

He died Tuesday after a long battle with a rare form of cancer.

At the time of his death, Ford, 46, was serving as Ward 2 Councillor (Etobicoke North), an office he originally assumed in 2000 at the age of just 30.

It was the same year he married his high school sweetheart, Renata Brejniak.

Ford, the youngest son of former Progressive Conservative MPP and Etobicoke businessman Doug Ford Sr., grew up in Etobicoke, attending Scarlett Heights Secondary School where he played football, and attended Carleton University to study political science.

He spent a year there and returned to Toronto to work at the family label-making busi-

ness, Deco Labels and Tags.

Ford ran for council and was elected in Ward 2. He quickly became known as a sharp critic of government spending.

From the beginning, Ford made a point of submitting annual office budget expenses totalling only $2. It later emerged he was drawing on his personal wealth to subsidize his office, leading to a change in expense rules requiring all office expenses – even those subsidized personally – be publicly declared.

He fought for small government in other ways, particularly during the council’s annual budget debate, and he became known for his combative style, often going head-to-head with colleagues.

But Ford also became known over his three terms as a city councillor as a politician who returned calls personally.

In 2010, Ford kept a promise he’d repeated for three terms and ran for mayor, after thenmayor David Miller announced he would not seek a third term. Ford handily defeated

his opponents, chief among them former Liberal cabinet minister George Smitherman, despite several more scandals emerging.

Ford’s brother, Doug Ford Jr., who also managed the mayoralty campaign, was elected to council in Ward 2 that same year.

Ford ran on a simple slogan, “stop the gravy train,” arguing

the city was wasting hundreds of millions of dollars and he knew where to find savings.

During his mayoralty, Ford maintained his interest in football, coaching at Don Bosco Catholic Secondary School, frequently missing council meetings to attend games. He also operated a football charity, raising money to buy equipment for high school teams.

This latter activity nearly cost him the mayoralty when, in 2012, he spoke against an Integrity Commissioner’s report demanding he repay donations from lobbyists made to the charity while he was a councillor. That action had Ford standing trial for conflict of interest, during which he was nearly removed from office – saved only in appeal court.

The following year, issues of substance abuse overtook the mayoralty. The Toronto Star reported Ford attended a military event inebriated, and then along with the website Gawker, revealed the existence of a video showing Ford smoking crack cocaine.

Ford repeatedly denied having done so until in the fall of that year, he reversed his position and admitted it during a scrum.

Because of remarks he made at the time, Toronto Council took the unusual steps of removing all but his statutory powers as mayor and transferring the rest to his deputy mayor Norm Kelly.

During this time Ford’s antics attracted international

attention, and Ford became a favourite target of late-night American talk shows.

Although he publicly claimed he was no longer using alcohol or drugs, Ford nonetheless continued to do so through early 2014, after registering for re-election. When more videos emerged of his behaviour, Ford signed up for a rehab program and took a leave of absence.

He returned in fighting form, but a cancer diagnosis in the summer of 2014 led to his last-minute withdrawal from the mayoral race. However, he registered for his old seat in Ward 2, while Doug Ford joined the mayor’s race.

Despite undergoing chemotherapy for two tumors in his abdomen, Ford easily won Ward 2, while Doug came in second to John Tory.

In 2015, he announced a second set of tumors had been found and entered into another round of chemotherapy, which was not successful.

Ford is survived by his mother Diane, his wife Renata, his daughter Stephanie and his son Doug, brothers Randy and Doug, and sister Kathy.

Remembering Rob Ford, man of the people T

here’s a reason Rob Ford was elected Toronto’s mayor in 2010, and it’s the same one that is now being expressed across the city as news of his death sinks in.

At the age of 46, Ford lost his battle with a rare and aggressive form of cancer Tuesday morning; family members were at his side at Mount Sinai Hospital.

With his death comes an end to a controversial and, at times, bizarre run of Toronto politics. But unpacking all of that is for another day.

Today, we need to mourn and pay our respects to a man who had a profound impact on the city he loved and the people who lived in it.

While we remember Rob Ford, the politician, we must also our view remember him as a father who leaves a wife and two young chilHis love of dren, aged eight and 10. Our deep Toronto was condolences go out to them and to the entire Ford family. reciprocated From the first campaign he won as councillor in Etobicoke North back in 2000, Ford always had a populist “man of the people” persona. He was genuine with that, and people gravitated toward to it. Here was a guy who unapologetically loved his sports, and his barbecues.

Many in the city saw themselves in him: the average guy who was going to stick it to the so-called “elites” who thought Toronto was theirs to rule.

Many voters loved that. And they loved Rob Ford.

He was unbeatable in every race he ran for councillor, and when he announced he would seek the mayor’s seat in 2010, many of those “elites” scoffed.

But Ford knew what they didn’t – he had deep and loyal support from those who proudly called themselves members of Ford Nation.

Some of his populist success was built on tapping into resentment by those who felt excluded by the megacity’s political system – particularly those in Scarborough, North York and Etobicoke, who felt they’d been treated as second-class citizens since amalgamation.

Ford may have exploited that feeling. A feeling which resonated with him personally.

Rob Ford was what he was, and he always fought hard for what he believed in.

He will be greatly missed by the city that he loved.

column

Rob Ford: a lesson in not making assumptions I think I first met Rob Ford in former Etobicoke Councillor Doug Holyday’s office on the second floor of Toronto City Hall, back in 2000. Rob had just won an election up in Ward 2, and he’d come down to see Holyday, bringing along his big brother Doug before settling in.

It’s funny, at first I thought Doug might be the new councillor – he was the aggressively friendly one, while Rob stood politely back: smiling a bit nervously, not saying much, rocking from one foot to the other. He was an easy guy to underestimate; an easy guy not to notice. And the first time we met, I did both.

Mea culpa.

Over the 16 years between his arrival at City Hall and his death in a hospital bed just a few hundred metres north and west of it, Ford taught me otherwise.

He came to City Hall with two clear and simple objectives: if not to reduce the size of government here,

david nickle the city then highlight where it was overstuffed, and to provide customer service to his constituents. He did this both by taking lessons from his father, former Progressive Conservative MP and labelmaking entrepreneur Doug Ford Sr. He didn’t win votes at Toronto Council. But he did win votes in his northwestern Etobicoke ward, and then, improbably, across the entire city in 2010, and again in his Ward 2 stomping grounds in 2014.

His simple, straightforward narrative caught on.

It made him unbeatable, at least electorally.

Of course, Rob Ford was entirely fallible, as beatable as anyone both politically and personally. For the first couple of years as mayor, Ford ran a tight ship on council, winning many votes and pushing his small

government agenda even when fiscal and organizational realities seemed to make that impossible. The vehicle registration tax was repealed; former mayor David Miller’s baby Transit City, cancelled; garbage collection west of Yonge Street was contracted out. In his first year, Ford used the last Miller-era budget surplus to orchestrate a property tax freeze.

It all fell apart. But we know all about that.

His plan to build a subway on Sheppard Avenue East didn’t survive council. A conflict of interest trial nearly cost Ford his job. A video of Ford smoking crack cocaine revealed a substance abuse problem of profound and humiliating depth, along with terrible displays of rage and racism and vulgarity that put Toronto in the crosshairs of international late-night television comedy.

You could make a joke out of it, and many did. But really, it was sad and hurtful,

and at times very frightening and dangerous.

And then there was the cancer. You can’t make a joke out of that. It tortured him for awhile, teased him with hope and, as is cancer’s wont, came back for what turned out to be the kill.

The last time I talked with Rob Ford was a couple months ago, when he’d come back to City Hall in the midst of bouts of the chemotherapy that couldn’t save him. We did a little interview outside a committee room, and talked a bit.

It was a nice conversation. He told me the doctors thought the chemo was working, that he was feeling pretty dragged out and often felt quite ill, but at least this time his hair wasn’t falling out. He took that as a good sign, and I agreed it might just be.

Mea culpa.

Connecting parks into a Green Line gains traction

Planned route would run from Earlscourt Park to the Annex JUSTIN SKINNER jskinner@insidetoronto.com A plan to turn a five-kilometre hydro corridor that runs from Earlscourt Park to the Annex is gaining momentum, with the creation of a “Green Line” along that stretch catching on with the public and the city alike.

The Green Line project originated out of a design competition created by He l e n a G r d a d o l n i k o f Workshop Architecture in 2012. She wanted to get the community at large excited about the prospect of linking up the scattered green spaces in the area and creating a more continuous and useful piece of the public realm.

“I live in the area and my office is in the area, so I was personally really interested in seeing the spaces improved and linked,” she said. “(Parks advocacy group) Park People got involved a couple of years ago and started working with Friends of the Green Line, a group I’m still involved in, and the city at the same time started looking at investing more into its parks department.”

G rd a d o l n i k s a i d s h e simply hoped to spark conversation about the idea and, while she hoped to see some sort of plan to link the spaces come to fruition eventually, she acknowledged that the response was greater than she could have hoped.

“It’s really exciting to see

how many people have taken it on and are interested in taking it to the next level,” she said.

The Green Line would be created in the hydro corridor from Davenport and Lansdowne to the area east of Spadina near the City of Toronto Archives. That area features nine small city parks and parkettes, some vacant lots and parking lots.

It would see the creation of a much larger green area that would benefit local residents, walkers, runners and cyclists.

“The idea is to plug the holes between the parks that exist, so instead of having a bunch of small parks along that corridor, we would have a much larger, much more usable green space,” said Jake Tobin Garrett of Park People.

The plan requires buy-in from both Infrastructure Ontario, which owns the land, and the City of Toronto, which would license the space from the provincial body. Garrett said the city has stepped up with money in the 2016 budget to help make the plan a reality.

“We’ve also had conversations with Hydro One, who operate the licence for the land we need and they seem positive about the idea of us using that green space,” he said.

Some obstacles remain, including ensuring the green space is not interrupted by some of the major streets that run through the

planned area.

“A lot of people already use the hydro corridor as a means to get around, but it’s not the most pleasant experience in places, especially where there are roadways you have to cross,” Garrett said, noting that pedestrian bridges would have to be built over streets and avenues including Dovercourt, Ossington, Shaw, Christie, Bathurst, Howland, and Spadina.

While the Green Line itself still requires some funding and planning, the movement to create the space has seen the area activated with the planting of a pollinator garden, the painting of a mural on Dovercourt, a harvest festival, and other events.

“There’s already been a lot of effort that’s gone into animating and activating the Green Line,” Garrett said.

Park People, Friends of the Green Line, and Workshop Architecture are holding a fundraiser and celebration to mark the work already done and get a leg up on what still has to be accomplished to make the green space come alive.

The event, which will feature live music, food, drinks, and a silent auction, will take place from 7 to 10 p.m. on Thursday, March 31 at Geary Lane, 360 Geary Ave. For more information on the Green Line, including a link to buy tickets to the fundraiser, visit https://greenlinetoronto.wordpress.com

Some medical services resumed at the Humber River Hospital Church site Monday.

Community gets short-term relief >>>from page 1 Centre (CCAC) wound and skin clinic. Additionally, the North West Toronto Family Health Group will relocate to the hospital.

HRH consolidated its services from three hospitals to its new campus at Wilson Avenue in October, with the closure of the Church site.

The Keele Street and Finch Avenue sites remained open with some hospital services.

Recently, however, the Keele site was sold to a developer, requiring the afore-mentioned services to relocate.

The Finch site, which operates as an ambulatory and urgent care centre, is unable to accommodate those services.

“A move to the Finch site, even for a short period of

time, would require extensive renovations, which would have a significant cost,” Power said.

Members of the community near the Church site have been vocal in their displeasure that their closest hospital was closing and about their fears the site would be converted to a high-density residential neighbourhood.

York South-Weston MPP Laura Albanese, who broke the news about the partial re-opening of the Church site through her newsletter, said this move gives the community short-term relief that the site will not be converted into a residential area.

“The community has been interested in the ultimate use of that site,” she said. “It provides a level of comfort for

the time being, but it doesn’t address the long term.”

In the meantime, the Church site will be providing medical services once again, in a small portion of the building. Services will be provided in the hospital’s original dialysis unit and the former cardiology/fracture clinic space.

The only parking lot that will be open is the one in front of the emergency department, accessed through the main entrance off Uphill Avenue.

Entry into the facility will only be through the main front entrance. Way-finding signs will be posted.

Once the move to the Church site is complete, the Keele site will be permanently closed, Power said.
