Debunking

the food bank myth LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com There exists a myth that those who rely on food banks are lazy or have made bad choices.

This is absolutely not the case, stress leaders in the fight against hunger, not only in Toronto, but across the country.

“People who use food banks are the same as you and me.

They’re people who have experienced job loss, sickness, or mental breakdown. It can happen to any of us,” said Gail Nyberg, executive director of the Daily Bread Food Bank, the largest provider of food relief in the Greater Toronto Area. “We’re here to give them a hand while they’re down and get them back on their feet.”

The Etobicoke-based distribution centre that provides food and resources to as many as 200 food programs across Toronto distributes 600,000 hampers

a month to its member agencies – one third of those in need are children, Nyberg said. The registered charity’s latest ‘Who’s Hungry’ report that looks at the past year will be released in September.

“We know we’re starting to see a dramatic increase (in food bank use). This replicates what we’re seeing in the economy: precarious jobs, part-time and contract; retail outlets closing and plants shutting down,” Nyberg said.

People who have lost their jobs typically don’t fall into dire straights immediately, particularly if they qualify for Employment Insurance. Food banks are accessible once a week to receive two to three days’ worth of food for each member of the family.

“We’re in our lean time now, too. We don’t get a lot of donations,” Nyberg said. >>>straining, page 3

Lambton Park Community School celebrates 100th anniversary DOMINIK KUREK dkurek@insidetoronto.com In response to the deaths of 12 Lambton Park-area men who were killed during the First World War, the community planted six maple trees on the grounds of the local school.

Park Community School continues to bring up young boys and girls and those trees stand tall and proud, reminding new generations of the community’s heritage. The current building is new, replacing the former one in the 1990s and built for modern-day education, but the school has a storied past that is

being celebrated this September at its 100th anniversary.

The celebration happens Saturday, Sept. 24, first with an open house at the school, 50 Bernice Cr., from 1 to 5 p.m., followed by a dinner and dance in the evening at Legion Branch 621, 2290 Dundas St. W. The open house is open to past staff

and students. Organizers ask those who plan to attend to register at lambtonpark100@ gmail.com The dinner event has limited seating and requires a ticket, which costs $35 per person. The dinner will feature music from the 1950s and ’60s. Organizers anticipate several hundred

people to attend the open house, with some coming from as far away as Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island.

Carol Richardson, alumni committee member and organizer, said the event is a good chance for people to reconnect, as many former students have >>>LaMBtOn, page 10

special report

Straining the food bank system >>>from page 1 Campaigns, such as Hunger Awareness Week, which takes place Sept. 19 to 23, help bring attention to the issue of hunger in Canada, and sees food banks across the country hosting events to highlight the work they do and the experiences of Canadians who are assisted by them.

Yet, hunger, pointed out Nyberg, is not just a week in September, it’s here all year.

She encourages everyone to make a food donation by dropping off items at the nearest fire hall or grocery store.

Daily Bread also benefits from companies like Loblaws that have strict rules regarding expiry dates. Food that gets turned away from chain stores can go to food banks, Nyberg said.

The North York Harvest Food Bank is the primary food bank for northern Toronto.

Last year, it distributed more than 2.3 million pounds of through 77 community programs.

Since the recession in 2008, food bank use in the inner suburbs has increased by 45 per cent, according to executive director Ryan Noble.

He points to the high cost of real estate coupled with stagnant wages and fewer employment opportunities as some of the reasons for the increase.

“People find themselves in food insecurity because of job insecurity. We live in a very rich city in terms of financial and food,” he said. “It’s when housing systems and job systems break down that there’s a problem.”

Food bank users are getting a small supply of food so that their money can stretch further, Noble said. For the average user, once rent and utilities are paid for, all that’s left is $4.51 a day, he said.

Through its partner agencies, North York Harvest Food Bank also provides clients with further support, such as job skills, settlement services, and housing.

The food bank, Noble said, “gives us a captive audience to understand what the root causes (of poverty) are.”

The food that is needed at food banks is the same that families want to serve at their dinner table.

It’s healthy, low sodium, low sugar, and protein-packed.

“There’s a lot of food insecurity awareness around fall and Christmas,” Noble said.

That’s why September’s Hunger Awareness Week is timely and important.

“It helps raise awareness before we enter our busy season,” Noble said.

Pam Jolliffe, interim executive director of Food Banks Canada, a national charitable organization that supports a network of provincial associations, affiliate food banks, and food agencies working at the community level to relieve hunger, said hunger is a symptom of people living in poverty.

“It’s a persistent problem – unacceptable in a country like Canada,” Jolliffe said. “Most food banks started 30 years ago as a shortterm solution. Unfortunately, they’re still here many years later.”

Overall, food bank use has increased by 26 per cent since 2008.

Alberta is suffering economic difficulty because of the sputtering oil and gas industry. So many Albertans are out of work, Jolliffe said.

The government has been taking steps to help families out of poverty, she said, citing the new child tax credit, and changes in support to seniors, as well as the Canadian Poverty Reduction strategy; however, more steps can be made.

“We need Canadians to speak up, to press the government for better policies,” Jolliffe said.

The need for food banks still growing

write uS

T

he week of Sept. 19 to 23 has been designated as Hunger Awareness Week in Canada, and it’s a time for all residents to think about and take steps to help deal with what is a growing need across our country, and especially in Toronto.

In our feature story in today’s editions, we look at the challenges facing food banks in our city as they deal with an increasing number of clients.

Gail Nyberg, executive director of the Daily Bread Food Bank, rightly points out, though, that hunger is not just a week in September. It’s a reality for a lot of families in our city, and the users of food banks come from a wide range of our population.

“We know we’re starting to see a dramatic increase (in food bank use),” Nyberg told Metroland Media Toronto. “This replicates what we’re seeing in the economy; precarious jobs, part-time and contract, retail outlets closing and plants our view shutting down.”

Ryan Noble, executive director Food security of the North York Harvest Food Bank, said his organization disan issue across tributed more than 2.3 million pounds of food last year through our country 77 community organizations it partners with. He pointed out that Toronto’s booming real estate market coupled with stagnant wages is one of the reasons for such need.

Basically, the cost of keeping a home in this city is becoming so high for some people that they are forced to turn to food banks when the money has run out for the month. That’s a scary scenario that should be a warning for all Torontonians as it highlights a growing gap between those who can and cannot afford to live in this city.

That being said, it’s clearly more than just a “Toronto problem” as food bank use across Canada has grown by 26 per cent since 2008, according to Pam Jolliffe, interim executive director of Food Banks Canada. What’s sad about this is that when food banks first began to pop up in Canada 30 or so years ago to help deal with the recession of the early 1980s, they were seen as temporary and would not be needed once the economy rebounded.

Sadly, that’s not the case and we need a hard national look at what poverty and food insecurity means in Canada and how we are going to address it.

Amalgamated Toronto was born in austerity Every so often it sneaks up on you and smacks you in the ear: Toronto, at least the amalgamated one we live in now, was founded on a myth of nothing grander than austerity.

The provincial government forced the amalgamation of the five cities and a borough with old Metro Council with the promise to save tax dollars.

Mel Lastman, the first mayor, got elected with the promise to freeze property taxes. Toronto’s newly elected council argued for a while whether it made sense to move from Metro Hall into Toronto City Hall, then once they moved spent considerable time arguing about selling Metro Hall.

Twice-weekly garbage collection in North York became a distant memory.

Free recreation programs in the old City of Toronto became unaffordable and the city started charging for them.

And, as we were

david nickle the city reminded Tuesday morning at the September Government Management Committee, the old City of Toronto’s gift shop closed its tiny doors.

I was there at the time and barely recall the decision. Pam McConnell, who was among the 56 councillors who made up the first amalgamated Toronto Council and prior to that had sat on the old Toronto Council, said that it was cut by then-budget chief Tom Jakobek, as an unaffordable frivolity. The gift shop was another casualty of the dour mindset into which young Toronto was born.

Well, frivolity has come back into vogue under Toronto’s fourth mayor, John Tory – and on Tuesday, the committee voted to see what it would take to open another shop for tourists at City Hall.

It’s fair to say they supported Councillor Mary Margaret McMahon’s idea with a fair bit of enthusiasm.

Why shouldn’t they?

Toronto’s wildly overbudget renovation of Nathan Phillips Square has proven to be a hit with the tourists – aided by the considerably less-costly giant glowing TORONTO sign that landed on the north side of the skating rink / reflecting pond thanks to the 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. And our weird old City Hall itself is both a civic and a science fiction icon; the now 50-year-old Star Trek television series used postcard images of the two curving towers and saucer-shaped council chamber as backdrops in more than one episode.

A gift shop is the least that City Hall should have, and maybe it will have a bit more. Just under a year ago, Toronto councillors approved a plan to look into building a modestly

scaled municipal museum at the eventually liberated Old City Hall just across the road. A bit further afield, councillors will soon be setting the wheels in motion to build a fantastically expensive park near King and Spadina, and another one on Richmond Street.

Austerity, at least for the moment, seems a thing of the distant past.

It won’t, of course, stay that way for long, as the city gets back to the quotidian business of budget-setting.

Mayor Tory is asking for big cuts to spending across the board – 2.6 per cent – in service of an old-fashioned inflationary property tax increase.

And that means that however weary we might be, of a city limited by austerity – that is the place we will be heading again, before we know it.

Comedian finds humour in ‘Mayhem’ LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com There is nothing funnier than the truth, says comedian Ann Pornel, particularly in a year when Donald Trump is vying for president, the world is in the midst of Pokémon Go mania, and racial intolerance is part of a regular news day.

Rather than steering clear of controversial issues, The Second City Mainstage Revue, ‘Come What Mayhem,’ a satirical sketch comedy revue that debuted last month, boldly points a spotlight on such subjects as the Black Lives Matter movement – inspired by its Pride Toronto protest – internet trolls, and obesity, among a variety of other topics.

“2016 has been insane – even last year as well. The world is at a point where things will change – for better or worse,” said Pornel, a new addition to the Second City Main Stage Company. “The world looks pretty bleak right

now, but we’re trying to find the funny.”

It’s a dark show as far as its subject matter goes, yet Pornel said she and her castmates have “done a good job of showing the world as we see it.”

“There’s so much to talk about whatever your experience,” Pornel said.

Pornel, who grew up in the

High Park area and moved to Mount Dennis as a teen, is a graduate of the Second City Conservatory Program.

She is a Canadian Comedy Award nominee for her role in the Toronto sketch troupe ‘The Sketchersons’ and was a performer in NBC’s ‘Break Out Comedy Festival.’

“I was looking for something to do that wasn’t super academic, to relax a bit,” Pornel recalled. “I was in residence my first year and everyone was auditioning for this sketch show. I thought, ‘Yeah, I’ll show up.’”

Pornel was no stranger to performing. She was involved in musical theatre in high school and being an only child, she said she loved attention. Born in the Philippines, she moved with her parents to Toronto when she was five.

Comedy, for her, is all about creating as part of a team.

“It’s so much fun to create and laugh and create comedy with a group of people,” Pornel said.

Come What Mayhem is staged at 51 Mercer St. Tickets start at $25.

Rehab hospital seeks developer for expansion LISA RAINFORD lrainford@insidetoronto.com Infrastructure Ontario and West Park Healthcare Centre issued a request for qualifications last week for a team to design, build, finance and maintain the hospital’s development project.

The development project will see the construction of a new hospital building, providing inpatient, outpatient and outreach services to meet future demands for health care in Ontario.

The project will result in the construction of a new facility, approximately 720,000 sq. ft., and the demolition of three existing hospital buildings, the Main, Ruddy and Gage buildings as well as the existing maintenance building.

A new campus entrance that will involve new public and private roads within the campus will be built, and an extension of utility services

and the construction of parking areas, and an expansion of green space and extensive landscaping for outdoor therapy areas and therapeutic gardens.

With expertise in rehabilitative medicine, West Park helps patients get their lives back following life-altering accidents and health challenges, such as lung disease, amputation and spasticity – a debilitating symptom of stroke, cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis.

A new hospital facility will help West Park transform its 27-acre site into an integrated campus of care to meet Ontario’s future health care needs, officials say.

The project will also adhere to the guidelines and sustainability principles of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system, with a goal of achieving the LEED Silver certification or higher.

Lambton Park students can reconnect at school celebration >>>from page 1 since moved away.

“It’s a chance to see the school and what’s changed.

Some people haven’t been back since the 1960s or ’50s and they don’t know that it’s a whole new school. They’ll see what’s new and have a chance to connect with friends,” said Richardson, who attended the elementary school from 1960 to 1967.

The school has gone through numerous renovations over a century.

It actually opened in 1914 as a one-room schoolhouse above a store, before opening at its permanent location in 1916.

Three years after the school opened and soon after the war ended, the community planted those trees on school grounds on Nov. 11, 1919, the first Remembrance Day, to remember the 12 men who fought and died in the war (one tree per two men).

There’s a brass plaque with the 12 names inside the school. The 12 men did not attend the school as the school opened during the war.

“Those boys who are on that plaque were too old to go to that school. But it was a very community-oriented area,” said Bonita Nelson (nee Moyle), 79, a former student (from 1942 to 1951) and niece of two of those men. Her mom, Irene Moyle (nee Gage), planted one of the trees, while her uncle, Arthur Moyle, planted another.

“Ap p a re n t l y t h e t w o princes, Albert and Edward, were supposedly coming from England to Canada and somebody thought they had arranged for them to plant these trees. In preparation for that, a silver-plated shovel

Benjamin Priebe/Metroland

Members of the Lambton Park C.S. 100th Anniversary Committee gather under a nearly 100-year-old tree on the school property at a meeting to determine the festivities for the school’s centennial, to be celebrated Sept. 24.

was purchased in order for these princes to plant these trees,” Nelson said.

However, the princes didn’t come, so instead, the community decided the mothers of the killed men would plant the trees.

Nelson’s maternal grandmother was ill at the time, so her mom, Irene, planted a tree in honour of her brother, Reginald Gage. Another of the 12 men, Sidney Moyle, was Nelson’s uncle on her dad’s side. The Moyle brothers, three of them, were orphans so the older remaining brother, Arthur Moyle, planted a tree.

While the trees were planted in the ground in 1919, they were likely around three years old, which makes those trees also around 100 years old this year, Nelson said.

She received support from Local Enhancement & Appreciation of Forests (LEAF) to get the trees designated as heritage. She hopes heritage plaques will be ready in time for the anniversary celebration.

While the original school

building has been torn down, the columns, cornerstone and balcony were preserved and are part of the new building, located inside the atrium.

That silver-plated shovel remained in the school in a showcase until the building was renovated in the late 1960s.

At that time, it was given to the school’s longtime principal and Second World War vet Jack Norman.

While she now lives in Etobicoke, she said people who grew up in Lambton Park, stayed in Lambton Park. Her brother and sister also attended the school, as did their children, and a grandchild. Her parents did not attend the school, but they did meet there as adults during a social potluck in 1918.

“It was the days of real chivalry. My mother’s girlfriend dared her to drop her hanky beside my father to see if he would pick it up,” she said.

Nelson’s dad, Ernest Moyle did, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Garlic Festival celebrates six stinkin’ years The annual Toronto Garlic Festival is celebrating six stinkin’ years.

The event, which takes place Sunday, Sept. 18, at Artscape Wychwood Barns, 601 Christie St. boasts a virtual reality tour of a garlic farm in Teeswater, ON. Filmed using panoramic lenses, the VR demonstration

promises to have garlic lovers in awe allowing them to get a glimpse at what it’s like to harvest Ontario garlic.

The festival takes place from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. and features garlic farmers offering dozens of varieties of Ontario garlic, along with some of Toronto’s best chefs, craft brewers, grillers, woodwork-

ers, bee keepers, chocolatiers, butchers, bakers – even candlestick makers. Garlic ribs, fries, fish, and mac and cheese are only some of the examples of the dishes that will be available.

Admission is $5; children under 12 get in free.
