East Yorkers will come together to celebrate the community and one of its former leaders on Agnes Macphail Day, Thursday, March 24.
The 2016 Agnes Macphail
Award ceremony starts at 7 p.m. in the True Davidson Council Chambers at the East York Civic Centre, 850 Coxwell Ave. The free event is open to everyone to attend. The 2016 award winner, Patrick Rocca, will be honoured along with this year’s Agnes Macphail Public
Speaking Contest champions, Hayden Landolt and Olivia Walsh.
The annual award honours community leaders making significant volunteer contri-butions to support issues that were important to Macphail, including women’s and seniors’
rights, criminal justice and penal reform, international peace and disarmament, and access to education, housing and health care.
The selection commit-tee looks for candidates who embody Macphail’s motto, “Think globally, act locally.”
Rocca upholds the motto well, noted Lorna Krawchuk, chair of the Agnes Macphail com-mittee.
“He’s a hands-on advocate,” said Krawchuk. “It’s the heart that goes with it that really makes the difference.”
Rocca honoured with Agnes Macphail Award

Intravenous drug users seek-ing a safe place to inject will soon be able to do so in east Toronto.
On Monday, Toronto Public Health announced the South Riverdale Community Health Centre (SRCHC), at 955 Queen St. E., just east of Carlaw Avenue, has been selected as one of three small-scale sites for supervised drug injection. The other two Toronto loca-tions are the Queen West-Central Toronto Community Health Centre on Bathurst Street, just south of Queen Street West, and The Works at Toronto Public Health’s build-ing on Victoria Street, near Yonge-Dundas Square.
The pilot project, which the city’s board of health will debate on Monday, is the city’s response to a rising number of overdose deaths – up 41 per cent in a decade – from heroin and fentanyl. The
city’s health department said injection drug users visited such harm reduction services across Toronto 100,000 times in 2015, and almost 1.9 mil-lion needles were distributed last year.
Providing life-saving harm-reduction services is nothing new to the South Riverdale centre, which has operated its award-winning COUNTERfit Harm Reduction Program for 18 years. COUNTERfit, which serves people who use drugs and live in an area bounded by the Don River, Victoria Park Avenue, Lake Ontario and Eglinton Avenue, distributes and collects needles as well as offers referrals for health care and addictions services to its 3,000 clients, not all of whom are intravenous drug users. Last year, the program received more than 22,000 client visits and distributed more than 320,000 needles.
Lynne Raskin, SRCHC’s executive director, said pro-viding a safe-injection service
is “the piece that has always been missing” at the east-end facility. “This is something that is certainly good for people who are in the system, but also for the community,” she said, adding a supervised injection site will result in fewer syringes left behind in the community by users.
She said 24 to 28 clients are expected to make use of the service daily during business hours.
B e a c h e s - E a s t Yo r k Councillor Paula Fletcher said the city has a responsi-bility to do its part to reduce the number of drug overdose deaths and emergency room visits in Toronto by intrave-nous drug users. “The time has come. The statistics are troubling,” said Fletcher, who expressed support for the safe injection site in her ward. “I have a lot of faith in the South Riverdale Community Health Centre. They have a lot of experience in harm reduction.”

The sure signs that it’s March Break:
1. You get the sudden urge for maple syrup. Not just so you can lather it on an entic-ing stack of pancakes you are intending to inhale either. Your primary focus is to go to one of those festivals out of the city to actually see how they make the yummy stuff.
2. You constantly day-dream of heading off to High Park, Riverdale Farm or the Toronto Zoo. After which you immediately break into a rousing chorus of Talk to the Animals, secretly hoping the next person who walks by will ask you if you speak rhinoceros. So you can giggle, “Of courseros, can’t you?”
3. Without even real-izing it, you find yourself Googling bed and breakfasts in Muskoka though you don’t even know what the heck they are.
4. You jot down Medieval
Times in big bold letters on your things-to-do list. There’s no getting around it. There’s just something about this holiday that has you itching to see a joust.
5. You find your ears perk-ing up while eavesdropping on a friend’s conversation and you can’t stop yourself from interrupting, “Excuse me. But did I just overhear you say wagon ride? If so, count me in.”
6. Thoughts of scavenger hunts race through your mind.
7. Seeing bustling outdoor playgrounds with all over the GTA.
8. NCAA Basketball March Madness coming to a TV near you.
9. And a tablet. And a
laptop. And a mobile phone. Incredibly, the latter three often found perched on the lap of one co-worker. Sitting next to you, if you’re lucky.
10. Having celebrities such as Dora the Explorer drop by your local mall to put on a show.
11. Two words: nature trail.
12. Two more: must visit.
13. Last two: right now.
14. Going down to the boardwalk in the Beach.
15: Seeing monarch but-terflies everywhere.
16. Being asked for direc-tions to Casa Loma.
17. Wondering if this will be the year you actually hop on a plane to Florida to catch the Jays at spring training.
18. Or finally muster up the courage to do the scary

Opening safe injection sites is right thing to doA Toronto Board of Health proposal to open safe
injection sites for drug users in three neigh-bourhoods is bound to make many residents
uncomfortable, but it is the right thing to do. Put quite simply, these sites will save lives and make our entire city safer.
That being said, if you live in Parkdale, south Riverdale or the Yonge/Dundas area you are rightly feeling some concern. Residents will be asking them-selves if safety in the area will be compromised, if they at risk of being flooded with heroin and fentanyl addicts looking to shoot up. The answer is: No.
The call for the safe injection sites has been made in response to a growing number of deaths related to overdoses during the past decade in Toronto.
Those numbers are up 41 per cent from a decade earlier, and in 2013 a shocking 206 people died after
injecting drugs. In the face of these numbers, to do nothing would be both irresponsible and immoral on the part of the health department and our city’s leaders.
“All lives are important, and nurse-supervised safe injection sites save lives,” said Angela Robertson, executive director of the Queen West-Central Toronto Community Health Centre in Parkdale, one of the proposed safe-injection sites.
The South Riverdale CHC and a Toronto Public Health office known as The Works near Yonge and Dundas are also proposed safe injection sites.
All three facilities already offer safe injection kits and have experience. They were identified as the best spots for the safe injection sites since they have the busiest needle exchanges in the city.
Their staff say the existing services prevent the spread of hepatitis C and HIV among drug users.
But more still needs to be done. Many addicts vis-iting these centres are homeless, and since they often use quickly and in public, most often alone, they are at high risk of a lethal overdose. Providing a safe place for them to do this lessens the chance of death or disease.
The board of health will offer further recommen-dations on the safe injection sites this summer, once community meetings are held in the identified areas.
We encourage you to take part in these meetings and learn the facts about this proposal.

So here we are with another city budget completed and again we are facing a property tax increase, this time at 1.3 per cent.
While this may only amount to roughly $72 per homeowner, property taxes have risen by roughly 60 per cent since 2000, according to the City of Toronto’s own estimate.
This development has to be contrasted with the situa-tion in 1997, before our forced amalgamation, when we were about to see our property taxes decrease due to the fact that we were just about to make the final payment on the East York Civic Centre.
Let’s consider that not only did we have the lowest taxes in all of Metro Toronto, we also had our own dedicated civil service, a fleet of brand new garbage trucks, our own municipal vehicles, eight part-time councillors and our own mayor.
On top of all that we also had the highest rate of sat-
isfaction with the delivery of municipal services in all of Metro Toronto.
So again, what benefits have we really gained through this forced amalgamation, and indeed what have all the other former municipalities gained as well? It certainly hasn’t been any real decreases in operation costs, for as we know, there are now more civil servants work-ing for the city than before amalgamation.
Likewise, if you think any greater efficiency has been achieved, just look at struggles the city is having organizing its public transportation policies or reigning in the costs of vari-ous departments.
It’s not just Toronto that is experiencing this increase in property tax with a drop in ser-vices; it is being experienced by all of the municipalities in
Ontario that were forced to amalgamate during the reign of the provincial Progressive Conservatives under then-premier Mike Harris.
Experts in municipal affairs on both the right and the left of the political spectrum warned Harris not to use amalgama-tion to save money because it did not work.
So here we are yet again proving the experts were right. What has been forgotten is that Harris stopped further amalgamations because he himself said there was no real economic benefit in it.
The former borough of East York had the formula to keep property taxes low and the delivery of services high, which was the fact that we had a balanced economy within an ideal population of 100,000.
Can we achieve it again?
Are property tax hikes a permanent feature of City of Toronto’s budget?

A longtime member of the TTC’s media relations depart-ment has retired from the organization.
Danny Nicholson, or at least his voice, may be rec-ognizable to many riders. You would often hear him on pre-recorded station announce-ments advising of subway closures or advising of the heavy fines for smoking on TTC property.
Nicholson’s last day at the transit commission was Friday, and he leaves a large legacy. Cheers Danny!
wexpect delivery of 4 streetcars a month
It appears the TTC’s long-standing streetcar nightmare is coming to an end.
According to the Toronto Star, Bombardier has pre-sented a plan to deliver four of the sleek new models each month beginning in April. The fleet of low-floor, air condi-tioned, smoothly running vehicles has been a hit with riders, but only 16 are cur-rently in service.
wmcnicoll BUs GaraGe cost still UnKnoWn
A full breakdown of costs for another contentious transit project, the McNicoll Bus Garage, was supposed to have been revealed last week to the executive committee, but city staff admitted the numbers aren’t ready.
The budget for the proj-ect is already known, $181 million, and construction is supposed to begin this year in order for the facility to open by 2019. The TTC has listed the garage as one of its top unfunded construction priorities due to the lack of storage space for its bus fleet, particularly in the city’s north end.
The project has attracted significant opposition from residents near Kennedy Road and McNicoll Avenue who have attempted to halt the garage, with little success.
wsheppard extension to doWnsvieW soUGht
The significant technical and financial challenge of build-ing a Sheppard Avenue West subway extension from Yonge-Sheppard to Downsview sta-tion has not dissuaded York Centre Councillor James Pasternak from continuing to push for it.
It’s estimated to cost $2 bil-lion, and that doesn’t include the cost of building a bridge over the West Don River.
Last week, Pasternak con-vinced his colleagues on the mayor’s executive committee to support further study of the project, even though the city’s own Feeling Congested review mechanism ranks the proposal in the bottom 25 per cent of all analyzed transit projects.
Unless you are Pasternak, the project is simply not a pri-ority in a city that has more important transit needs.

East York’s Brittany Crew aiming for Rio OlympicsNORM NELSON [email protected]
After sweeping the throwing events at this year’s national university track and field cham-pionships, East York native Brittany Crew is setting her sites on the Rio Olympics.
The Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) national track and field championships were held March 10 to 12 and Crew, a member of the York University Lions who hosted the winter indoor meet for the first time, won both the weight throw and shot put.
She wasn’t particularly happy with her heave of 16.96-metres in shot put, even though it set a championship meet record, “because I knew I could throw so much further,” she said in a Tuesday phone interview.
Her performance gives her a unique ‘double-double’, having swept both throwing events at both CIS and at the preceding provincial Ontario University Athletics (OUA) champion-ships for two successive years.
She has one more year of university athletics remaining, and plans to compete, although her focus has now completely shifted to qualifying in shot put for Rio.
First, she has to meet the Olympic standard which she achieved indoors in February, but now must do outdoors – something she plans to tackle immediately.
“I’m going to try to hit the standard really early ... I just want to get it out of the way, get the pressure off me,” she said, explaining that her first attempts will be this weekend in Florida where she will compete in two meets.
Second, she then has to qualify at this year’s Canadian national championships, July 7 to 10 in Edmonton, which serves as the Olympic qualifier.
Last year she didn’t compete at nationals because she competed for Canada at the world university games in South Korea where she earned a bronze medal.
The year before that at her very first senior nationals, she came in third.
“But every year I’ve usually finished first or second in the (national) rankings,” she said. “I plan on being national champion this year.”
Although her family now lives in the Danforth/Victoria Park area, Crew said she grew up in the Donlands/Mortimer area, attending R.H. McGregor Elementary School for Grades 1 to 5 and Cosburn Middle School for Grades 6 to 8.
She then went to Scarborough’s Birchmount
Park Collegiate.“I went into the BEAP (Birchmount
Exceptional Athlete Program) program being a soccer player,” she explained. “I played soccer for 11 years competitively.”
Ironically, however, that meant she couldn’t actually play for the school soccer team because of eligibility rules (which basically prevent teams being stacked from students enrolling from outside the school’s catchment area) so she had to choose another sport.
And she chose shot put which she had excelled in, in elementary school.
“The coach at Birchmount – he was a Paralympian in the shot put,” she explained, referring to Shane Risto who competed in the Paralympics in 2004 in Athens (8th in shot put) and in 2000 in Sydney (4th in shot put, 7th in javelin).
“He just saw a lot of potential in me and he kind of like, you know, harassed me for years to just give up soccer and just focus on track.”
She eventually did. And secured a U.S. college scholarship to Eastern Michigan University although she left after the first year after injury problems.
“I decided it wasn’t the best fit for me, I decided to come home and I contacted my (current) coach Richard Parkinson (at York University) and for the last few years I’ve improved so much.”

Zakiya Hutchinson, centre, dances to the sounds of drummers from the Ijovudu African Dance Company during 2015 Afrofest events at Woodbine Park.
JOANNA LAVOIE [email protected]
The organizers of the 28th annual Afrofest, which for the past four summers has been held at Woodbine Park in the Beach, are crying foul about the City of Toronto’s decision to reduce their two-day event to a one-day affair.
In a Monday email, Music Africa, which runs and pro-duces the festival, said this decision by the city will have significant negative impacts on their festival.
“This move will not only make it difficult to organize a viable festival but also hinder its growth and community impact,” the email read.
Music Africa said it is always willing to “work constructively” with City of Toronto officials, but added the conditions set by the city jeopardize the suc-cess of their festival.
“This seems in complete contradiction to Toronto’s official ‘Music City’ initiatives,” organizers charged.
On Monday afternoon, Beaches-East York Councillor Mary-Margaret McMahon said the city made the decision to reduce Afrofest’s event permit from two days to one because Music Africa failed to respect noise regulations as well as
exceeded permitted time frames.
Afrofest organizers are denying these allegations.
“The sound company we employ does most of the events at Woodbine Park, including Canada Day and Beaches Jazz Festival concerts, and use the same sound equipment, crew and sound levels,” said Peter Toh, Music Africa’s president, in the press release.
“The volume at Afrofest is no different than at those events, but in our case they are being called violations.”
In the email, Toh said the city had agreed, in writing, six months prior to Afrofest’s 2015 edition to allow the festival to run later to accommodate a ceremony for the Pan Am Games, then just two weeks before changed the permit conditions.
“There seems to be no understanding of the con-tractual obligations we had, both to accommodating the Pan Am Torch Relay and to the headline act that followed,” he charged.
McMahon disagreed.“We set strong parameters
and they were followed by and large the first year. The second, third and fourth years, not so much. The envelope contin-ued to be pushed,” she said.
“I live up by The Danny and could hear the music up there. There is a community (by Woodbine Park) and we want people to get a good night’s sleep and have a good quality of life.”
McMahon said Woodbine Park hosts a diverse range of large-scale events and festi-vals, many of which result in little to no complaints from the community.
“(Afrofest) is a well-loved festival and we didn’t pull the plug completely,” she said. “We would like the rules to be followed and respected. We’ll reward good behaviour.”
McMahon said if all goes well this time around, the city will discuss issuing a two-day permit from Woodbine Park in 2017.
Afrofest, which started in 1989, is the largest annual African music festival in North America.
It draws up to 60,000 rev-elers daily. Up until 2011, Afrofest was held at Queen’s Park but it “outgrew” that space and was relocated to Woodbine Park in 2012.
Music Africa is calling on all Afrofest supporters to write, phone or email Councillor McMahon and Mayor John Tory to express their concerns about this decision.

A member of the Leaside Rotary Club, Rocca also con-tributes to the community by supporting and volunteering with New Circles Community Services and Prostate Cancer Canada, among other initia-tives.
“He has his hands in a lot of pies,” Krawchuk said. “Here’s a person who leads an active working life and still gives a significant amount of his time and his talents to leading in volunteer work.”
His community spirit is contagious, she added.
“We’re looking for people who lead and who get other people to follow them,” she said. “And that’s Patrick.”
Along with a medal and cer-tificate, the Agnes Macphail Award comes with a monetary prize for the winner to donate to a registered charity. Rocca is splitting his prize between New Circles, Prostate Cancer Canada and the Leaside Rotary Club.
The 2016 award ceremony marks what would have been Macphail’s 126th birthday. Former MP David MacDonald, this year’s guest speaker, will talk about the uniqueness of Agnes Macphail.
The public speaking con-test champions will speak as well, delivering their winning speeches. Olivia, a Grade 6 student at St. Anselm Catholic School, will talk about ending homelessness, while Hayden, a Grade 8 student at Westwood Middle School, will speak about lowering the
wage gap between company CEOs and employees.
“These were tremendous speeches,” said Krawchuk of this year’s eight contest final-ists. “I was very, very grateful I wasn’t a judge, they did a beautiful job.”
It proved a tough job indeed for judges, which is why two winners were selected.
Members of the VOCA Chorus of Toronto will kick off the award ceremony with O Canada, before performing more songs.
There will be snacks and refreshments following the ceremony, and parking is free in the staff parking lot off Mortimer Avenue. Local Venturers will serve as the ceremony’s ushers, while local Pathfinders will help with the food.
“It’s a great local event,”
said Krawchuk. “A great chance to be with local people, celebrating the com-munity.”
Prize money for the Agnes Macphail Award comes from community contributions. Tax receipts are issued for dona-tions, which are collected by The East York Foundation.
Visit bit.ly/1SQL443 for donation details, and more information about the Agnes Macphail Award.
As well as an East York leader, Macphail was a politi-cal pioneer. She was the first woman elected to the House of Commons and one of the first two women elected to the Ontario Legislature.
Members of the community and Agnes Macphail commit-tee are further honouring her by nominating her to appear on a new Canadian bank note. Committee members lobbied the Bank of Canada for the idea in the past, so they were thrilled when it announced March 8 it was holding an open call for nominations of iconic Canadian women to appear on a new bill. Up to five women from Canada’s past can be nominated by each participant.
Visit www.bankofcanada.ca/banknoteable for more information about the cam-paign, and to submit nomi-nations.
The submission deadline is April 15, 2016.

Leaside Wildcats women’s hockeyseason ends with playoff eliminationThe Leaside Jr. Wildcats may have had their best ever regu-lar season, but the local junior women’s hockey team will head into next season still looking for their first playoff series win.
The Jr. Wildcats had a dis-appointing end to their fourth season in the Provincial Women’s Hockey League (PWHL), upset in their open-ing best-of-five playoff series 3-1 to the underdog London Jr. Devilettes.
After splitting the open-ing two games at Leaside Arena, Leaside lost a couple of one-goal heartbreakers last weekend:
• a 4-3 setback March 11 in which London tied the game with three seconds remaining, with the extra attacker on in place of the goalie, and then adding the winner 21 seconds into overtime;
• and then losing 1-0 March 12.
The 20-team league fea-tures the best junior women’s
hockey in the province. Top 16 qualified for post season with Leaside, enjoying its best ever regular season, finish-ing 6th with 53 points in 38 games and London 11th with 40 points.

Italian inspired creations infused with a modern flare in theheart of Carlisle
Good food shared with good company isalways an occasion to be savoured.Regrettably, for most the harried lifestylesof today don’t always allow for this luxury.In an ideal world all your meals would bejoyful events; your taste buds teased andspoilt for choice with an abundance oflocal ingredients, served fresh in a warm,inviting atmosphere.

Born to an Italian family and raised in the restaurant industry, Angela (mother, wife,triathlete and entrepreneur) instinctively knew that the 100 year old landmark buildingon the four corners of Carlisle was destined for greater heights. One day, whilst eatingice-cream with her 3 year old and watching the cars go by, it occurred to her that the carsgoing by could be stopping at her bistro. It wasn’t long before numbers were negotiated,permits issued and Cascata Bistro was born.
Following the farm to table philosophy which supports local farmers by using locallygrown seasonal produce when available, all of the menu items at the award winningCascata Bistro are handmade, ensuring only fresh quality ingredients are used. TogetherAngela and the bistro’s chef continuously strive to create new, delicious and enticingcombinations -often using herbs and vegetables from the bistro’s own kitchen garden.
Special events hosted include wine pairing dinners, specialty brunches and weekly liveentertainment. For contests and more information, visit Cascata Bistro on Facebook.
Fresh local ingredients mixed with the traditional flavours of authentic Italian cuisine area winning combination. Especially when paired with friendly service in an eclecticatmosphere. Whether you are planning an intimate dinner for two or a lively group event,the wonderfully designed Cascata Bistro in Carlisle, is an artisanal delight just waiting to
