Alleged fraud victim hunts down handyman By Jeremy Grimaldi

raudsters are infamous for winning — taking people’s money, spending it and leaving a slew of victims in their wake. But Steven Morrison wasn’t prepared to be a victim. In spring, he wanted a deck built in his backyard and it didn’t take long to find a handyman service advertised on Kijiji. When he was visited by a man the next day, Morrison said he was immediately confronted with a request for a $2,500 deposit so the carpenters could get to work. Morrison paid $500, withholding the other $2,000 until post holes were dug the following day. He says that was the last time he saw the Vaughan handyman at his home. After calling the handyman’s cellphone over and over again, he says he’d get responses like: “What are you going to do about it?” “Sue me” and “Have a nice day”. “I might have just let it go, but he was taunting me,” the subcontractor from Burlington said. “I’m Scottish — we never let anything go.” Nonetheless Morrison would soon find out there was a reason behind the handyman’s alleged bluster. When he went to the police they told him because work had technically been completed on his backyard project it became a “civil matter”. The courts said the same thing. So Morrison turned investigator himself. He began posting on Kijiji, even paying for the advertisements, calling the man a scammer, to which a number of other victims responded. In one case, he said the handyman simply lifted a few baseboards at the home of a woman in Milton before disappearing. There were

SPECIAL REPORT

A look at how student streaming and credit caps are affecting how young people plan for their future Tara Hatherly

thatherly@insidetoronto.com

It has been 13 years since Ontario eliminated its official 13th year of school - then known as OAC - amid a controversial curriculum change that was supposed to end student streaming. The official 13th year, called Grade 13 until the 1980s when it was replaced by OAC (Ontario Academic Credit), was phased out in 2003 by the Progressive Conservative government. But could another change made when OAC was eliminated - introducing applied and academic course options - be making it hard for students to finish in four years with the credits they need to succeed and decreasing the likelihood some students will excel, while effectively continuing to stream students? Applied and academic credits are meant to be “mix and match,” but most students take courses in one or the other. Academic credits are typically required for university. “In a lot of cases, students pick applied because they think it will be easier, and then ironically they are much less likely to be successful in the applied stream. There’s so much evidence that says

it’s a bad idea to divide kids, particularly in that first grade of high school. It limits choices, it closes doors, it sometimes sets kids up for failure,” said Annie Kidder, founder and executive director of advocacy group People for Education. “There are kids who either aren’t graduating, or who are getting to Grade 12 and realizing that there are doors that are already closed to them that got closed when they made that choice in Grade 8.” The courses replaced vocational, college and university streams, and are meant to teach the same curriculum in different ways. Academic courses study essential and related concepts with a theoretical approach, while applied teach essential concepts in a more practical, hands-on way. According to Ontario’s Education Quality and Accountability Office, of students who demonstrate strong math skills in grades 3 and 6, those who take applied math courses in high school are less likely to continue earning high marks. Lowered expectations, and in turn, lowered effort, for kids in applied courses has been floated by education experts as one potential cause for the disparities.

Grade 12 students work independently during teacher Hugh Tran’s math class last month at Father John Redmond Catholic Secondary School. In math, 83 per cent of Ontario Grade 9 students in academic courses met or exceeded the provincial standard this year, while only 45 per cent of applied students hit the mark. In English, 92 per cent of Grade 10 students successfully completed this year’s Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test, while only 47 per cent of applied students were successful. A study by the Toronto District School Board, Ontario’s largest school board, suggests 60 per cent of students who take applied courses in Grade 9 don’t graduate within five years, compared to 14 per cent of those who

choose academic. It takes 30 credits to graduate high school. A 34-credit threshold was introduced by the provincial Liberals in 2013. After 34 credits, the government decreases funding to school boards for most students. Students wanting to earn more than 34 credits must get approval from their board, and may have to take courses through continuing education. “Over a decade ago, Ontarians moved to four years of high school, but many students are still taking that additional fifth year, even after graduating,” said a government statement at

Optometrist, Hepatologist and Diabetic (Endocrinology) services available by appointment

the time. “We need to shift the culture in our schools and encourage students to graduate and move on to the next stage in their lives after four years.” Needing to replace applied credits with academic or raise marks in a completed course, or switching career paths and needing different courses, to get to post-secondary programs, can leave students wanting more than 34 credits. “I think we need to allow for the vast amount of change that happens to young people,” Kidder said. “Obviously it can’t be unlimited and there have to be

boundaries in this, but the problem always with capping anything is are there people who lose from that, and I think in this case 34 may be too low.” Education Minister Mitzie Hunter and Education Critic Patrick Brown declined to be interviewed for this article, after weeks of correspondence with their representatives, with Hunter citing a lack of availability. “When selecting their courses in Grades 9 and 10, students are not expected to make binding decisions about a particular educational or career pathway,” said Ministry of Education spokesperson Heather Irwin. “However, they should try to ensure that they have the prerequisites required for future courses they plan to take. Schools must make provisions to allow students to make changes in direction and must clearly describe these provisions in their school program/course calendar.” But the provisions, which can include a half-credit summer course, seem to present a barrier. During the 2014-2015 school year, only three per cent of schools reported students often transfer from applied to academic courses, while 43 per cent reported transfers happen never or not very often, according to a People for Education study. During a government announcement about child care Friday, Sept. 23, Metroland Media Central reporter Cynthia Reason asked Hunter if Ontario would consider reviewing the academic and applied separations in Grade 9. Hunter said the ministry is consulting with school boards, some of which, she noted, have requested the separations be eliminated.

SIU clears York officers who chased Stouffville driver who didn’t survive crash Jeremy Grimaldi

jgrimaldi@yrmg.com

The officers who pursued a speeding vehicle that eventually crashed into a Whitchurch-Stouffville ditch, killing the driver, have been cleared of any wrongdoing in the matter. The province’s Special Investigation Unit found the officer did not break any laws when he chased a speeding Christopher Char-

trand, 30, reaching speeds of up to 145 km/h near Hwy. 48 and Bloomington Road. The provincial police watchdog found the incident began around 2 a.m. just before last Christmas, on Dec. 20, 2015. The subject officer, parked at a strip mall at Ringwood Road and Main Street, in Stouffville, witnessed Chartrand’s Toyota speeding west on Main Street. A police chase ensued,

after the car made a sharp north turn on Hwy. 48, at which point the officer turned on flashing emergency lights. The cruiser reached speeds of 145 km/h in the 80 km/h zone but was unable to catch the Stouffville resident’s car. The police vehicle lost sight of the car as it crested the hill near Vandorf Sideroad, at which point the investigation found the car

lost control, travelled about 70 metres, crossed two lanes, struck a utility pole, rolled and slammed into a an embankment, according to the SIU. Chartrand, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle before being pronounced dead as a result of massive head trauma, the investigation found. A post-mortem found he had 228 mg of alcohol per

100 ml of blood, almost three times the legal limit. He also had cocaine and marijuana in his system. “The man was already driving at a dangerous speed before the subject officer even activated his roof lights, which would have alerted the man to the police presence,” said SIU director Tony Loparco. “The subject officer did nothing to exacerbate the man’s pattern of dangerous driving. I

am satisfied the actions of the subject officer did not constitute a criminal offence and no further action is contemplated.” The SIU investigates when there are reports involving police where there has been death, serious injury or allegations of sexual assault. Some $12,000 was raised for Chartrand’s funeral by friends and family on the website gofundme.com after the crash.

EDITORIAL

Education system must set students up for success

hen we’re young we make a lot of mistakes - big ones, little ones, and some that can be life altering. Unprotected sex can lead to unwanted pregnancy or disease. Drug and alcohol abuse can do permanent harm to a growing body and lead to life-long addiction. These are human mistakes, and as much as we might wish, they are impossible to guard against, particularly for young people whose judgement may not yet be refined. Surely, we should not design a school system that also provides risks of permanent harm to stillunwise young people who make a bad choice in setting their academic course. The curriculum change in 2003 - which followed the end of the Ontario Academic Credit - was intended to end student streaming with the addition of applied and academic learning, but as one education advocate says, this change has effectively laid a trap for students. The elimination of a fifth year of high school, along with a cap on credits the province will fund (34 is the maximum unless the board approves it), essentially ties the hands of a student trying to get ahead. If a student decides early on to eschew academic courses for the apparently easier applied courses, upgrading later on may be hindered by bureaucracy. As Annie Kidder, founder and executive director of advocacy group People for Education, said in Metroland Media’s feature article on this issue “we need to allow for the vast amount of change that happens to young people”. The group’s report ‘Applied or Academic: High Impact Decisions for Ontario Students’ surveyed Ontario schools and found only 20 per cent of schools with grades 7 and 8 reported having a guidance counsellor on staff, and most of those positions were part-time. If a student in Grade 8 doesn’t have the maturity to envision their life after four years, then provisions need to be put in place to give these young minds the right support, at the right time. The Ministry of Education has heard from several boards wanting the applied and academic streams to be scrapped in Grade 9, to give kids a level playing field in their first year, then they can decide how to move forward. It would be a mistake to take options and opportunity away from students just as they’re getting started.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Trump’s presidential bid can’t be successful Re: Could Canada elect a Trumplike leader, Sept. 29. Being a dual citizen and living in Canada for the last 20 years, thank goodness for the small things in life. At the very beginning, with Trump trying to get the Republican nomination, I just laughed it off. Certainly, I knew he’d be out of the race in no time. I would listen to some of the ridiculous comments he made and how much of an unintelligent person he is and never thought of him possibly retaining the nomination. Months have passed and now I can no longer ignore what is in front of me. This man is not a politician, doesn’t know how to act in public, everything out of his month is lies, he doesn’t pay people that work for him, says he can not show his taxes for last year because he is being audited — he can show his

taxes, he just doesn’t want to — he is a huge bully, a bigot, can not control or give an opponent their turn to speak without interrupting and one of the biggest and most ridiculous comments from his mouth has been that he has a good temper. I could go on and on because he has given us so many awful traits/ examples, but I won’t. I’ve even had family members living in the United States who have already asked me if I have extra room in my home. They said it jokingly, but I know better. There are very troubling days ahead and I can only hope the outcome will not be a Republican.

7 Things You Must Know Before Putting Your Vaughan Home Up for Sale

York Region - A new report has just been released which reveals 7 costly mistakes that most homeowners make when selling their home, and a 9 Step System that can help you sell your home fast and for the most amount of money. This industry report shows clearly how the traditional ways of selling homes have become increasingly less and less effective in today’s market. The fact of the matter is that fully three quarters of homesellers don’t get what they want for their homes and become disillusioned and - worse - financially disadvantaged when they put their homes on the market. As this report uncovers, most homesellers

11 Critical Home Inspection Traps to be Aware of Weeks Before Listing Your Vaughan Home for Sale Vaughan - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale. Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items

could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That’s why it’s critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable pre- inspection yourself if you know what you’re looking for, and knowing what you’re looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones.

To help homesellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled “11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection” has been compiled which explains the issues involved.

Woman tackling litter problem at Golden Forest Pond investigated her complaint and concluded there wasn’t a problem. The city owns the stormwater pond and the land around it, but it hasn’t been assumed yet so a local developer’s group is still responsible for cleaning and maintaining it. Douglas McGill, property manager for the Block 18 landowners group, said in an interview they’ve hired a contractor who cuts the grass around the pond and cleans up the pond and the land around it as required. And, he said, they’re called out if the city contacts them about litter that needs cleaning up. But Palma says the area is still constantly filled with litter. Frustrated, this spring she took matters into her own hands and spent several hours over two days cleaning up the area. Among the things she found were an old shopping cart, a barbecue, a suitcase, and hundreds of dog poop bags tossed in the bushes along the embankment that runs down one side of the trail. “If people just took pride in this area like it was their own backyard, this wouldn’t be a problem,” Palma

Adam Martin-Robbins

amartinrobbins@yrmg.com

Daniela Palma loathes litterbugs and she’s working to stop them from ruining an idyllic corner of her Vaughan neighbourhood. “I just find it so disrespectful of this area, which is so pretty,” said the 27-year-old recent York University graduate, who lives near Peter Rupert Avenue and Major Mackenzie Drive. “When you see litter everywhere, it’s kind of upsetting for me and I know other people feel the same way.” Palma became aware of the problem in her neighbourhood last fall when she got a dog and started taking her for walks along the tree-lined, multi-use trail running alongside Golden Forest Pond, a stormwater management pond. “She’d always pick up trash off the ground. She’d be chewing on stuff like bottle caps and dirty tissues,” Palma said. “I’d have to pull it out of her throat, it’s disgusting.” Palma contacted the city and reported the problem. The following spring, Palma said, she learned city staff had

said. Palma launched a Facebook page to document her efforts and spread the word about the littering problem. She also started an online petition and a GoFundMe page to raise money for community cleanups. Since there were no garbage cans in the area, Palma bought a trash can and placed it between the pathway and the pond. Her actions caught the attention of Concord/Thornhill North Councillor Sandra Yeung Racco, who contacted her. A while later, Palma says, the city installed garbage cans at the trailheads. And last week ‘no littering’ signs were installed. But Palma plans to continue her efforts to keep the area free of litter. She’s organizing a community cleanup on Oct. 29, weather permitting, and sharing her story in hopes it will inspire others to tackle littering in their corner of the city. “It’s a big problem in Vaughan, but people just need to take ownership,” Palma said. “Don’t wait for somebody else to do it; start something on your own.”

Man faces fraud charges other complainants in Mississauga, Toronto and Markham. Eventually Kijiji banned Morrison, suggesting he was a rival contractor trying to smear the man’s name. So he turned to posting details on consumer websites and began a calling campaign against the man, ringing his “countless” phones and businesses names over and again.

‘I might have just let it go, but he was taunting me. I’m Scottish — we never let anything go.’ After he looked up real estate records and found out where the man lived, Morrison even knocked on his door, snapping a photograph of the man while the two argued on what Morrison called the man’s rented “million-dollar” Concord property. After weeks of the campaign, the handyman eventually called Morrison, saying he’d pay back the money, noting that he was “costing” him “a fortune”. But the money never came. Morrison eventually grew so enraged with the lack of action by police, he gathered five of the handyman’s alleged victims and they went to Halton police together as a group.

PROTECT YOURSELF: York Regional Police provides a number of different suggestions to help you avoid becoming the victim of fraud: Remain wary of people who ask for money upfront, talk to friends and family members about services, do not rush decisions and engage in plenty of research before hiring or paying anyone to complete housework.

After the residents were told to make police reports in their own jurisdictions, Toronto police acted, charging Eugene Ostrovski with fraud under $5,000, forgery and uttering forged documents. The allegation include the suggestion he created and used fake sales orders and took money and materials, but never rendered any services. He is also facing fraud charges in Barrie. Turns out this is not his first encounter with police. In two separate incidents with York police, one in 2014 and another in 2015, Ostrovski pleaded guilty to three counts of fraud. Despite the charges though, Morrison isn’t quite willing to declare himself a winner just yet. He said as of Monday, Ostrovski was still posting advertisements on Kijiji, offering his services. Ostrovski declined to comment when contacted by yorkregion.com

York Regional Police laid more than 500 charges during Operation Impact Oct. 7 to 10. The annual initiative, which ran during the Thanksgiving long weekend, targeted four specific preventable offences that lead to a significant number of deaths and serious injuries on Canadian roadways each year. Over the course of the

weekend, officers laid 477 charges related to aggressive driving, 32 for distracted driving and five for improper use of seatbelts. There were eight charges laid for impaired driving. “Avoid tragedy by wearing your seat belt, paying attention, planning alternatives to driving if you are drinking and following the rules of the road,” said YRP traffic bureau Insp. Randy Slade. While the initiative has

ended, police remind residents of the need to be safe on local roadways throughout the year. Impaired residents should arrange for a designated driver or overnight accommodations. They can also use public transit or call a taxi. Dialing #TAXI (#8294) on a cellphone will connect you to a nearby taxi company, Slade said. For more information, contact the traffic bureau at 1-866-876-5423, ext. 7706.

Public health inspectors handed out tickets for violations under the province’s Health Protection and Promotion Act at five York Region food service providers last week. • Glorious Chinese Cuisine, 1661 Denison St., Markham, was issued a closure order Oct. 12 after being charged with operating food premise maintained in manner permitting a health hazard. • Dejavu Mediterranean Cuisine, 1470 Centre St., Vaughan, was charged Oct. 13 with storing utensils in a manner not preventing contamination and operating a food premise maintained in a manner adversely affecting sanitary condition.

• Hockey Sushi, 1102 Centre St., Vaughan, was charged Oct. 12 with using a basin other than for hand washing of employees and failing to provide soap or detergent in the food preparation area. • Hong Far Cafe, 9425 Leslie St., Richmond Hill, was charged Oct. 11 with operating a food premise maintained in a manner adversely affecting sanitary condition. • Johnathen’s Fish & Chips, 134 High St., Georgina, was charged Oct. 14 with failing to ensure the floor of a food-handling room was kept clean.

The Vaughan Rebels bantams concluded their Ontario Football League regular season on a sour note with a 43-13 loss at the hands of the first-place Durham Dolphins Sunday. Maelik Graciano hauled in one touchdown pass from Marco Simeone and Matthew Faria ran for one major for the Rebels, who concluded the regular season in second place with a 6-2 mark. Linebacker Adrian Facciponte anchored the defensive effort with 13 tackles while Matteo Frano had 11. The Rebels will receive a firstround playoff bye and play the winner of a game between the Hamilton Junior Ti-Cats and Niagara Generals Oct. 29.

The provincial government is getting rolling on alleviating parking woes at two congested GO Transit lots in Vaughan. Transportation Minister Steven Del Duca, MPP for Vaughan, announced Thursday that multi-level parking structures will be built at the Maple and Rutherford GO stations to add 1,200 new spots at each site.

Construction of the parking structures is slated to begin in 2018. Metrolinx, the provincial transit agency, is also adding new pedestrian tunnels at both stations to connect to a future second track and platform needed to increase GO Transit service. That project will require the temporary relocation of parking spaces at both stations, but the number of parking spots will not be affected.

“We’ve seen an increase in demand for GO rail service on the Barrie GO line, and along with this comes an increase in demand for parking spots,” Del Duca said in a news release. “The tunnels are part of the big picture as we increase GO rail service and make stations more pedestrian-friendly. We’re taking action with our GO RER (Regional Express Rail) plan that will transform how the region moves.”

Officer recalls horrific crash that killed York cop Lisa Queen

lqueen@yrmg.com

Near 3 a.m., as Lowell McClenny was booking off from his first-ever night as duty inspector with York Regional Police, the radio room called his office to report a serious collision in Markham involving a police officer. “I can remember this night, it was absolutely terri-

ble, it was foggy, it was rainy, you couldn’t see your nose in front of you,” the nowretired veteran officer said. When McClenny arrived, the scene was horrific. Const. William Grant, just 26 years old and on the force for four years, had attempted to stop a car taken by a 19-year-old from his parents’ Thornhill home following a fight with his

girlfriend. Grant chased the vehicle driving erratically on Kennedy Road near Major Mackenzie Drive, but lost it in the foggy night. Up ahead, the driver of the car turned the vehicle around, turned off the headlights and drove straight into Grant’s cruiser, leaving him with massive internal injuries that would kill him.

Presents:

Just general things, how are you doing, how’s the family, what’s going on, that kind of thing,” he said. “(Grant’s death) still to this day bothers me, it really does. Bill had a wife and young child. You’re brothers, in law. The memory is there, it never goes.” McClenny, an Aurora married father of two sons, grandfather of four and

When McClenny and other officers arrived, they found the driver had killed himself with Grant’s revolver in a nearby field. McClenny had spoken with Grant just three hours before he died that Oct. 9, 1984 night. “He was sitting there having his lunch and we had a little chat and the next thing you know (he was killed).

great-grandfather of two, owned his own milk delivery company before he joined the Aurora police force on July 1, 1965, fulfilling a boyhood dream to become an officer. After York Regional Police was created in 1971, he rose up the ranks, including as a hostage commander, before retiring as a superintendent on Oct. 4, 1999.
