Lisa RainfoRd lrainford@insidetoronto.com While sports writer Kristina Rutherford and boxer Shanice Szmidt acknowledge they are each part of a small number of women in their male-dom-

inated professions, it’s not a phenomenon that interferes with getting their jobs done. “I don’t notice it anymore, how male-dominated it is,” said Rutherford, a writer at Sportsnet and author of the new book, Level the Playing

Field: The Past, Present, and Future of Women’s Pro Sports, published by Owlkids Books. “I’ve talked to women (reporters) who say they get different answers from athletes than the men do, but I don’t feel that way. People say, ‘You can get

away with asking that because you’re disarming.’” Case in point: In 2012, retired professional baseball player Jose Conseco, gun shy about granting interviews to reporters because of how he’d been >>>boxer, page 5

As the Toronto District School Board proposes to close Vaughan Road Academy (VRA) at the end this school year, some parents are calling the move a result of racial segregation. The school with approximately 220 students in Oakwood Village is at 19 per cent of its capacity. In its 2006/07 school year, the student population was approximately 770. “This is a reality, a reality we must deal with,” said Daniel Castaldo, of the TDSB’s planning department, speaking about shrinking enrolment at a community consultation meeting held at VRA Tuesday, Oct. 18, where more than 50 people attended. It was the second of two public meetings to discuss the proposed closure. Castaldo said under-enrolment isn’t just a VRA problem, as there are currently 27,000 empty seats across the Toronto public school board’s high schools. But a parent said this proposed closure is a result of racial and class segregation that started years ago. >>>board, page 11

Historical society looking for support Dominik kurek dkurek@insidetoronto.com The Weston Historical Society is intent on keeping the neighbourhood’s history alive and it’s reaching out to the community for support in doing just that. The organization is seeking donations of office supplies to help it organize and better preserve its documents and artifacts. “A lot of people think history is a dead and stagnant thing. It’s constantly changing. We’re constantly learning. It’s kind of a living thing,” said president Cherri Hurst, who is also president of the Weston Heritage Conservation District. “If that living thing dies or gets destroyed, it’s like any other living thing, it becomes extinct.” Formed to preserve the community’s rich history in the mid1970s, the society aims to get people interested. Soon after forming, the organization partnered with area schools to offer a history award to students to get kids interested in local history. This still happens, with one student from each of the four local elementary schools winning at the end of the school year. Group members have also done talks in schools. With a large newcomer population in Weston, Hurst said recentlyarrived residents show interest in the area’s history, but it’s difficult for society members to conduct serious outreach in the community. “Our problem with both the historical society and the conservation district is we’re dancing as fast as we can just to keep what we’ve got going,” she said. “To do anything

Last summer, using federal grant money, the society hired a summer student to get it organized, but it

became apparent the organization needs storage furniture to do that. The group needs a used cellphone, for a pay-as-you-go plan; legal-size filing cabinets and legal-size file folders (new is not necessary); metal cupboards for larger artifacts; and archival supplies and boxes.

Frontlines is looking for some community support as it seeks funding for its programming through the Aviva Community Grant. The organization that serves Weston and Mount Dennis has applied for the grant for its Front Burner Program, a culinary training and job placement program for youths aged 18 to 29 who are facing barriers to employment. The organization could receive up to $50,000. To earn a grant, Frontlines needs people to vote for its proposal on Aviva’s community fund website. The last day for voting is Oct. 28.

n a few days our streets will be full of miniature ghouls, princesses and witches, excitedly going door-to-door to fill up their treat bags. At this time of year, however, it’s not just on Halloween that drivers and pedestrians need to be cautious of each other. The days are shorter and it’s usually under the cover of darkness that people busy themselves getting to and from work, or kids make their way to school. Last week Toronto police reported 18 pedestrians were hit on the road in one day - with one of those incidents resulting in a fatality. We’ve all seen that video from Pickering where the girl getting off a bus is nearly OuR ViEW little hit by a careless driver zooming past. Distracted The close call was enough to walking can make staff gasp in the newsroom. The reality is, for our streets to cause injuries be safer, both drivers and pedestrians need to change their ways. Drivers cannot be distracted. Put your cellphones away, don’t drive while juggling a burger, pay attention to what’s happening in front of and around your car. Watch crosswalks and check blind spots - particularly curbside - for approaching pedestrians or cyclists. For those on the sidewalks, attention needs to be on your surroundings too. As Peel Regional Police Const. Mark Fischer told us this week, “Just like distracted driving, there’s distracted walking that can cause injuries.” Make eye contact with drivers as you approach crosswalks. If it’s raining, use an umbrella so you can monitor the traffic around you. Adult and children pedestrians also need to be mindful of their appearance. Dark clothing limits visibility; choose reflective gear instead. Parents should talk with their kids about street safety and wearing the right clothing in darker hours. If children can walk with a parent, a friend, or in a group - all the better. Some neighbourhoods organize ‘walking school buses’ that pick children up at their front doors. It’s on all of us to change our behaviours and make the effort to keep pedestrians safe.

Do voters need a rest from byelections? What with the tenor of the presidential election nearing its close south of the border, maybe we shouldn’t be surprised that the good voters of northeast Scarborough are tired of being voters and would like a rest. Still, it was hard not to be a bit surprised when at the last council meeting Councillor Chin Lee suggested that some 900 residents of Ward 42 (Scarborough-Rouge River) were interested in abandoning their franchise until the next municipal election and seeing the seat vacated by long-time councillor Raymond Cho filled by council appointment. Lee said he had a petition of that size, asking for an end to what they called “musical chairs” between the various elected offices in Ward 42. There have been a lot of byelections there. Cho departed for Queen’s Park in the last one, this past summer. School trustee Neethan

david nickle the city Shan, a New Democrat, was recently elected to the Toronto District School Board in a January byelection, and ran against Cho in the summer. Perhaps, the petitioners worried, the enthusiastic legislator Shan (identified in everything but name in the petition) would do so again. And so with the support of Mayor John Tory, his executive committee members and really everyone else but the left-wing minority, council is waiting a month so that Lee (whose ward borders Ward 42) might consult further with the community. Sympathy for weary Scarborough electors aside, one can’t ignore the possibility that the majority wing of city council wants more of a say in the representation of Ward 42 (and one vote in 45) than a quick byelec-

tion - you know, the sort of thing that people expect in a democracy, two years out from a general election might otherwise allow. There’s going to be more of this as time goes on. On Wednesday, Mayor Tory’s executive committee had a look at the final report from consultants charged with recommending changes to Toronto’s ward boundaries for the next election. The meeting occurred after the deadline for this column, but the matter must still move to council next month and when it does, I predict a vigorous if occasionally arcane fight over the recommendation to add three new wards bringing the total to 47. Now, the discussion as to whether the number of politicians should be increased is a bit more nuanced: democratic representation can be balanced with 47 councillors, the current 44 or even the 22-member council that the late Rob Ford advocated. And

councillors do cost money. These ones would cost a total of $870,000 a year, with another $210,000 to set up the three city hall and constituency offices in the first year. Aside from the money, there is also the matter of all that debate. Those old enough to get tired of voting are also old enough to remember when Toronto Council had 57 members, just after amalgamation, and how exhausting that bunch was. Of course, the real answer is that whether we want to or not, the right to vote in an election and have one’s views and interests represented in government is important in itself - and as well as being a right, a responsibility. One might think that everyone should understand that.

Boxer helps other women build up their confidence >>>from page 1 p o r t ra y e d i n t h e p a s t , allowed Rutherford to spend a couple of days with him in Vegas for a feature story. He was tempted to cancel at the last minute, but finally agreed telling Rutherford, ‘You sounded cute.’ No matter how impressed she is by an athlete’s prowess, Rutherford approaches each interview as though she is his or her neighbour. As a writer for the Sportsnet magazine, and specifically for its Q&A f e a t u re, R u t h e r f o rd i s able to ask athletes about all aspects of their lives including such topics as pets, and vacations - in addition to their athletic careers. Rutherford is a life-long Bloor West Village resident. She and her older brother played all kinds of sports growing up, in part, because according to their mother, the siblings had a ton of energy and to counter

Sportsnet writer Kristina Rutherford, a lifelong Bloor West Village resident, has written her first book, published by OwlKids, called ‘Level the Playing Field: The Past, Present, and Future of Women’s Pro Sports’.

that, she signed them up for “everything.” At six years of age and envious of her brother

who got to play hockey, Rutherford said, “apparently, I cried until my parents signed me up.”

Rutherford knew she wanted a career in sports in some capacity. Initially, she thought it’d be through kinesiology, but it was partly her dad’s influence that led her to journalism. Her first reporting job at the Oakville Beaver saw her covering arts and entertainment and whenever possible, sports. She’s been at Sportsnet for five years and says she loves talking to people and seeing the emotions expressed on athletes’ faces on the ice or the court. “Sports are the original reality TV,” she quipped. As for Szmidt, because of the lack of women in boxing, she says it’s tricky to find female sparring partners so instead she has to train with the guys at the Toronto Boxing Academy on St. Clair Avenue West, just east of Runnymede Road. But, in her experience, that’s a good thing. “ They’re so suppor tive. They respect it,” said

“

A lot of women, when they see me spar with guys, it makes them feel more comfortable. It helps build their confidence to try new things. – Shanice Szmidt

Szmidt, who fought her first professional fight in New Brunswick on Oct. 15. Although Szmidt dominated for the first three rounds, the fight was called a ‘no contest’ because of an accidental head butt. Undefeated as an amateur fighter and one professional fight under her belt, Szmidt aspires to become a Canadian champion before heading to Las Vegas - the boxing capital of the world. The 23-year old says she’d like to be a role model for women. A natural born athlete, Szmidt first aspired

to compete in wrestling at the Olympics, but she was always too heavy for her weight category. Instead, she switched to rugby. In January 2014 when she began boxing, Szmidt said she discovered just how rewarding the sport is. “It keeps my body in shape more than any other sport,” she said. “It keeps you fit, motivated and happy. It’s a confidence booster.” Szmidt, who lives in Pickering and works downtown as a security director, said she began participating in fitness classes, like boxing boot camp, when six months in, her coach Brock Arthur, owner of the Toronto and Durham boxing academies, pulled her aside to ask if she wanted to compete. “A lot of women, when they see me spar with guys, it makes them feel more comfortable. It helps build their confidence to try new things,” Szmidt said.

Transit Project Assessment Process - Public Meetings Our Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) is now home to nearly 7 million people – heading towards 10 million by 2041. This growth is a sign of success and opportunity. But as we grow, so too must our transportation network – the lifeblood that connects this great region and each of our communities. Metrolinx, an agency of the Government of Ontario, is bringing more transit and more connections to more places within the GTHA. Every community transit project, big or small, plays a vital role in the regional transportation system. We want to share our plans and get your feedback.

Applications for Early French Immersion are open from November 1 to December 1, 2016. Information evenings run throughout November.

Starting in November we will be hosting community open houses to share information and updates on three of Metrolinx’s projects to build new track and electrification infrastructure. We will be seeking your input on these specific plans and feedback on proposed mitigation strategies: GO Rail Network Electrification Transit Project Assessment Process (TPAP) (Hydro One as co-proponents): gotransit.com/electrification • Environmental Baseline Condition Reports have been prepared, Impact Assessment Reports to evaluate potential environmental effects of the project are underway, and stakeholder consultation is in progress. The project is currently in the Pre-Planning Phase of the TPAP. • The focus of this round of public meetings will be to provide an update on the project and conceptual design of the Traction Power Supply and Distribution components.

• The project is currently in the Pre-Planning Phase with existing conditions studies completed. • The focus of this round of public meetings will be on existing conditions. These meetings will also include information on the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) which guides the work being done to transform the transportation network in the GTHA. A review of the RTP is underway, providing the opportunity to formally incorporate new insights into the plan, while ensuring we maintain momentum on the projects underway. Information updates on other key studies and projects in your neighbourhood will also be provided.

Vindication for the Scarborough LRT Scarborough light rail advocates are vindicated by a newspaper report stating misleading information was passed on to Toronto Council ahead of a crucial subway vote. The Toronto Star story states city and TTC staff presented misleading data for the seven-stop Scarborough LRT project, leading undecided councillors to support the onestop subway extension instead championed by Mayor John Tory and chief city planner Jennifer Keesmaat. In a statement to Metroland Media Toronto, Scarborough Transit Action says the story confirms “distorted facts and figures” were used to push through the $2.9 billion subway project.

FOR BLOOR VIADUCT wBOLLARDS

Bloor Viaduct cyclists finally have some separation from the rest of traffic with the installation of “bollards” along the roadway. The Viaduct has had a painted bike lane since 2010, but only just received the added separation, which the popular cycling blog Biking Toronto notes has increased at least the perception of safety. “Instead of having traffic whip by you with only painted lines between them and you on your bike, these new bollards are not only a physical ‘thing’ but also a constant visual reminder to cars that the bike lanes are for bikes,” reads a recent post related to the new infrastructure.

Vaughan Road Academy Grade 11 student Aysha Jawara expresses her concerns of the possible closure of the school during a public meeting last week.

Board to make its final decision Dec. 7 >>>from page 1 He called attention to the fact that the majority of Cedarvale Community School graduates opt to go to Forest Hill Collegiate Institute for high school through optional attendance even though its students live in VRA’s catchment area. He said Vaughan Road has excellent programming, including an International Baccalaureate (IB) program. “The reason Cedarvale parents wished (their kids) to attend Forest Hill has, I would submit, nothing to do with programming, but everything to do with race and class,” said Julian Heller. Numerous people at the meeting echoed those senti-

ments. Allowing optional attendance has resulted in a declining enrolment at VRA, while Forest Hill is at 118 per cent capacity, he said. If approved, the VRA closure would result in all Cedarvale graduates attending Forest Hill, and the majority of the remaining VRA students going to Oakwood Collegiate Insitute. The IB program would be merged with Weston Collegiate Institute’s IB program. However, Esther Grossman, a Cedarvale parent, took offence to Heller’s comments. “It’s not about race and I deeply resent the insinuation,” she said. The decision to go to Forest

Hill has never been about race, she added. “I don’t think you’ve been to our school recently to see how multicultural it is,” she said. A number of VRA students spoke up during the meeting. Several said that with a lower student population, those who attend have greater access to clubs and sports teams with less competition for spots, and the school has done well at Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) championships. On Nov. 2, TDSB staff will issue a final report. The board will hear public delegations about the issue on Nov. 16, and the school board will its decision on Dec. 7.
