New members wanted by artists guild DOMINIK KUREK dkurek@thetopic.ca The York Artists Guild is inviting fledgling and seasoned artists to join its group for some creative socializing once a week.

The group of about 20 members, which formed in 1983, has moved into a new location this year and it seeks to fill more seats at its gatherings.

Members meet Thursday evenings at the Fairbank Memorial Community Centre, 2213 Dufferin St. It had previously met for the past 31 years at the Centennial Recreation Centre West.

The artists' group is open to anyone and everyone, no matter their skill level.

"Art is really a form of relaxation. I think everyone has a creative juice in them. It's just channeling it out," said Ann Tuzi, who recently joined the artists guild.

"This group is really great because there's no pressure. You work at your own pace. I've taken art classes and they're more structured. With these guys, it's a more relaxed environment. But, you learn from them. You learn from workshops and from them."

A Special Report on Child Poverty Hundreds of thousands of Canadian children are growing up in poverty.

In Ontario, more than 370,000 children (or 13.8 per cent) lived in a low-income household in 2013, only slightly better than the national average of 14.3 per cent.

Poverty often means food insecurity, an inability to fully participate at school and difficulty accessing services. See our story on page 3 to find out how Toronto’s young citizens are faring.

Child poverty rates in Toronto differ by race and ethnicity JonAThAn ZETTEL newsroom@insidetoronto.com

Metroland File Photo

Sarah Shaikh, 13, (right) and Helen Liu, 12, make their meal selections during the July summerlunch+ program in East York.

With school lunch initiatives closed for the summer break, summerlunch+ aimed to fill the nutrition gap for local area children. cities, indicated a 2014 report, Colour of Poverty, by Children’s Aid Society of Toronto, Social Planning Toronto and Family Service Toronto.

There is “stark inequality” in children’s lives across Toronto neighbourhoods, stated a 2014 Social Planning Toronto report, The Hidden Epidemic: A Report on Child and Family Poverty in Toronto.

Low-income rates among children ranged from five per cent in Lawrence Park North and South, Leaside-Bennington and Kingsway South, to 10 times higher - more than 50 per cent in Regent Park, Moss Park, Thorncliffe Park and Oakridge.

The report findings echoed others that found poverty varies greatly in Toronto by race and ethnicity, with people of African and Middle Eastern backgrounds three times more

likely to live on low incomes than those of European backgrounds.

In April 2014, Toronto City Council voted unanimously to develop a poverty reduction strategy. Its target: to end child poverty within a generation by 2035.

Toronto’s strategy contains 17 recommendations and 71 actions to respond to the immediate needs of low-income Torontonians, to create pathways out of poverty, and to address the systemic causes of equality, the city stated.

The Toronto Poverty Reduction Strategy focuses on housing stability; service equity; transit equity; food access; quality jobs and livable wages, and systemic change.

This month, a new children’s charity launched with a mandate to be a strong, independent

voice for Canada’s children.

Children First Canada stated while Canada is the fifth mostprosperous nation in the world, the country is falling behind in its protection and care of its children.

“There is a big disconnect between what we perceive to be the case when it comes to the wellbeing of kids in Canada and what’s actually going on,” the charity’s founder Sara Austin, an international children’s rights advocate and former leader with World Vision Canada, said in a statement.

“While we assume Canadian children are well cared and provided for, child poverty and suffering has reached epidemic levels in cities and towns across the country.”

The charity is calling on Ottawa to appoint an independent children’s commissioner

to advocate for children, and to publish an annual children’s budget to track federal funding.

The Liberals promised a children’s commissioner during the 2015 election campaign, Austin noted in a speech Nov. 16 to a Toronto meeting of the Empire Club of Canada.

The government is “still studying the idea,” said a spokesperson for Jean-Yves, Duclos, minister of families, children and social development, last week when asked about the pledge.

The charity also wants Canadians to volunteer with children’s organizations, talk about the issue of child poverty with friends, neighbours and family, and donate to children’s charities.

Angela grew up poor and was determined to make a better life for herself. She owned a construction business with her husband, but in 2009, after he beat her during a night of drinking, she left with her three children.

Angela, who agreed to speak to us anonymously, said she never expected to wind up with “three kids on the street, basically looking for the kindness of strangers to help me out.”

The local women’s shelter would not admit boys older than 12 and Angela’s oldest was 15. That night in the emergency room, a nurse offered her a basement apartment.

Since then, Angela and her three children, who live in Owen Sound, have come face-toface with poverty and learned first-hand how it undermines opportunities to rebuild.

In addition to lacking money for a car, telephone or food, Angela worries about her children’s mental and physical health. Stress, anger, anxiety and a sense of isolation, coupled with the poor-quality, processed, high-carbohydrate diet provided by food banks have led to asthma, stomach problems and poor immunity.

“I couldn’t figure out why they were sick all the time,” she said, adding she would be called away from work frequently to tend to ill children, which made it hard to hold down a job.

Angela’s three children struggled with school and missed out on school trips and extracurricular activities because even $5 for pizza day was out of reach.

Housing was also a problem and the family has moved frequently.

In one instance, Angela asked her landlord if he could supply her with a letter of residence so that she could apply for social assistance - instead he gave her an eviction notice because he didn’t want “that type of people living there.”

While 13.9 per cent of children across Ontario live in poverty, a staggering 25 per cent of those living in Toronto are below Statistics Canada’s Low Income Measure, as are 19 per cent of adults, the City of Toronto reported.

Toronto also has the highest rates of poverty and child poverty among Canada’s 20 largest

Time to break the cycle of child poverty

The York Guardian, published every Thursday, is a division of the Metroland Media Group Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Torstar Corporation. The Metroland family of newspapers is comprised of more than 100 community publications across Ontario.

The York Guardian is a member of the National NewsMedia Council. Complainants are urged to bring their concerns to the attention of the newspaper and, if not satisfied, write The National NewsMedia Council, Suite 200, 890 Yonge St., Toronto, ON M4W 2H2. Phone: 416-340-1981 Web: www.mediacouncil.ca

T

his is where it starts: sometime this month – or maybe next – a mid-size company in the Greater Toronto Area is pushed to outsource a department to stay viable. A person loses a job.

At first, he finds freelance work, then temporary manual labour gigs. Then, nothing.

A single parent, he looks at starting his own business, but that would require an infusion of cash. Or retraining, but that, too, would cost money, and leave the household without an income for an extended period of time.

The first things to go are the luxuries – TV packages, smartphones, music lessons. The SUV is traded in for a used compact car. Next come some harder choices – running the washing machine less often to save on hydro and water, fewer trips to the grocery store supplemented with items from the local food bank.

One day – and then the next– both kids go to school without breakfast. These are the faces of child poverty in our communities.

In a Metroland special investigative series, reporters from community papers across southern Ontario examine the issue of child poverty, which may at first blush not be visible some areas of Toronto. One of the stories is online and in print today, the rest can be found at insidetoronto.com They present research that says more than 370,000 Ontario children (or 13.8 per cent) lived in a lowincome household in 2013, only slightly better than the national average of 14.3 per cent. They also found that more than 800,000 students take part in more than 4,000 school meal programs across the province.

Certainly, initiatives such as the recent changes to the Child Tax Benefit program will help address the problem. As well, accurate, detailed information garnered through the recently restored long-form Census will aid in creating a focused poverty plan. But it could be years before such strategies bear fruit.

Other avenues that need to be explored include economic development initiatives that focus on maintaining – and creating – local jobs, investments in training and seeking out ways to help Ontario Works clients secure meaningful employment without worrying about clawbacks to benefits. Most of all, students need to learn life skills and strategies that will help put them on a path to a successful future.

Make no mistake: child poverty is family poverty, and it is a cycle we need to break.

We all have a part to play. Let’s get to it.

Dreaming the impossible dream of breaking up Toronto I have met the Don Quixote of Toronto’s suburbs.

He’s out there, mostly on weekends, trying to free Scarborough from the clutches of Toronto by gathering signatures door to door.

About 400,000 should do it. Then Kathleen Wynne must listen. Ontario’s premier will hold a vote, and return Scarborough, after two decades of abuse, back to its fiscally-responsible people.

“It’s been an abysmal failure, amalgamation,” says Robert McDermott, leader of the Free Scarborough Campaign.

“It was undemocratic, forcefully and arrogantly put through.”

McDermott is a realtor who tried running for council in Scarborough, and led a Toronto-wide slate of candidates against

MIkE ADLER Edges of Toronto our municipal land transfer tax.

That didn’t work, and neither will this. Mike Harris didn’t listen in 1997, when people in each of Toronto’s former cities voted not to merge.

A generation has passed since Scarborough’s city hall became the half-empty, mostly irrelevant relic of 1970s architecture it is today.

Independent Scarborough is gone. Its residents have as much chance of

escaping Toronto as people in Leaside, Forest Hill or Long Branch.

But an ache remains, not just in Scarborough but everywhere away from the Megacity’s core. At its heart is one conviction: our money flows downtown, and doesn’t return.

“We can only remember how happy we were,” says Giorgio Mammoliti, a North York councillor.

“All we get are scraps to appease us in the suburbs.”

Downtown’s Rail Deck Park, perhaps to cost billions, is far away. In neighbourhoods called Rustic and Oakridge, the city asks residents to show up, vote and then, just maybe, it will put lights in the park or replace cracked sidewalk planters.

Suburban councillors fought to save traditions of their former cities, but

these were mostly about leaf collection and parking.

Those former cities are older now, and poorer.

An independent Scarborough in 2018 would have responsibilities its leaders couldn’t fathom as its subdivisions were built.

I don’t know what you call your neighbourhood, or why. Does North York still exist for you? Does East York?

That’s part of this column, finding out.

McDermott still dreams the impossible dream.

We’re stuck with each other.

The group meet Thursdays from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. The guild also puts on exhibits and sells holiday cards to offset its operating costs.

Weston Santa Claus Parade is back for its 37th year Santa Claus has not forgotten about Weston this year.

The big guy himself returns to Weston Village Sunday, Nov. 27 for the community’s 37th annual Santa Claus Parade.

The parade features 60 entries of floats, bands and groups, and its expected to draw 15,000 spectators. It’s also an alternative to last weekend’s downtown Toronto parade.

Help Renew Our City’s City’ Long-Term Long-T Financial Plan

CorreCtion

The City of Toronto is renewing its Long-Term Financial Plan – a roadmap for how the City will make investments in the future. We want the public’s input on this important issue so we can build the city we all want.

In the Michaels ad starting on November 18, 2016, the sale price of 8 1/2” x 11” Value Pack Paper is incorrectly printed. The correct price is 60% OFF, Sale $2.79 Each.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

“It’s a very well put-together parade.

We have some of the best bands that they have at the Toronto Santa Claus Parade,” Weston Village Business Improvement Area (BIA) co-ordinator Marion O’Sullivan said. The BIA organizes the event.

“This is a great alternative. You’ll be able to get close to the acts to see them, and there will be lots of people giving out hot chocolate and candy canes. It’s a great parade and it has a great feel to it.”

The Weston Area Emergency Support food bank will collect food donations along the parade route. People are asked to bring non-perishable food items to the parade.

The Parade begins at 2 p.m. at Weston and Church streets and heads south on Weston, ending at Sidney Belsey Crescent.

Private garbage collection is one of life’s few certainties

Give the Gift Of Nature

In these uncertain times, few things are inevitable. One notable exception, is the 2017 contracting out of curbside garbage collection.

On Monday, Mayor John Tory made that very clear. Without even a staff report recommending the move - indeed, with a notvery-old report from former city staff, arguing that private garbage collection city-wide is a bad idea Tory rose with the sun for a dawn news conference saying he intends to put out calls to private-sector haulers early in the new year, to see what kind of garbage collection the city can get for its buck.

“I think there will be savings. It’s difficult for me to quantify them,” said Tory.

Those savings may well be quantified in a new staff report by the new staff - mixing in some new factors, such as a recent

DAVID NICKLE The City review of the state of the city’s fleet of garbage trucks and the reality of a new collective agreement with CUPE Local 416 that makes it easier to get out of the business.

That is, of course, uncertain. But what’s certain is Tory’s - and therefore a likely voting majority of Toronto Council’s resolve. Many councillors have wanted to pull the plug on city-run garbage collection for decades. Tory noted that he promised to contract out garbage during the election.

It is a remarkably sim-

ilar argument to the one that Tory made about his continued support of the Scarborough subway in the face of growing evidence that building it was a bad use of scarce funds. Promises made, promises kept.

City planning staff had to do some backflips to come up with a working plan for the subway, and so they will to come up with a safe way to contract out. A good start would be to make sure that the contractor taking care of the city’s west end and the one looking after the east aren’t the same outfit - and making sure that it stays that way.

And a larger exit strategy, that lets the city do the job itself if the price for the private sector gets too high, wouldn’t hurt either.
