PARK YOGAOlive Dodds celebrates her 102nd birthday DANIELLE MILLEY [email protected]

Few have witnessed as much in their life as Olive Dodds. Fewer still can sit down and recall those memories.

There was the invention of the television, the advent of commercial aviation, the creation of the personal computer and don’t even get her started on the changes in nurses uniforms.

Dodds said the changes in fl ying have been the biggest change in her life.

“There were just little two-winged planes when I was a kid during the war,” Dodds said.

That would be the First World War, which Dodds said she can remember bits of.

Born in England on Aug. 12, 1910, Dodds celebrated her 102nd birthday this week with an English tea with family Sunday afternoon and a surprise party at Toronto East General Hospital (TEGH) where she has been a volunteer for 27 years – almost as long as she’s lived in Canada.

Her fellow volunteers, includ-ing many from her knitting group, staff and Dodds’ family – daughter Kate Parley and granddaughter Jane – joined in the party, which overwhelmed Dodds.

“This is the biggest surprise I’ve ever had,” she said.

Dodds was feted with cake and tea, fl owers and balloons.

The retired nurse lived in Newcastle, England, through two world wars. It is where she met her

husband Ernie and raised their daughter Parley. Dodds was content i n E n g l a n d until the death of her husband so she decided to move to Canada where Kate had settled.

She arrived in December 1984 to live with her daughter, son-in-law and two grandchildren in the Kingston Road and Woodbine Avenue area.

By January she was volunteering with TEGH after being introduced to the hospital by Parley’s neigh-bour, who was a volunteer.

“Once a hospital is in your blood...hospital life is very attrac-tive,” she said.

Dodds began her career in health care when she was 17; she would take a break once she got married, but when her husband went to serve in the Second World War, she went back into nursing at the Royal

Victoria Infi rmary.After the war, she and her hus-

band started a family with the birth of Parley. They had a normal family life that included holidays around the country; Cornwall was their favourite destination. She said she didn’t travel abroad much - most travel was done by trains in her day.

Her move to Canada wasn’t a big adjustment; she was happy to be with Parley, her son-in-law Alec and grandchildren Jane and Andrew.

“Canada has been very kind to me,” Dodds said. “I like the people.”

Parley believes her mother’s commitment to staying active and her outlook on life has contributed to her longevity.

“She loves to be out and social-izing,” Parley said. “She’s interested

in life. She’s interested in people. She wants to know what’s going on in the world. She’s not content to sit and vegetate.”

Dodds attends a lunch club Mondays and plays euchre on Thursdays in addition to knitting dolls for the hospital’s gift shop and clothes and hats for newborns. She plays games on the computer and went through a Game Boy phase in the early ’90s when she was into Tetris.

“I have an iPad and I’m trying to keep it from her or I’ll never see it again,” Parley joked.

Dodds contributes her making and surpassing the century mark to both her attitude and good gene’s on her dad’s side - where many relatives lived to their 90s.

To be happy and content with your life,” she said is the secret. “To accept what you have.”

Projection Booth East celebrates one year JOANNA LAVOIE [email protected]

Just more than a year ago, Nadia Sandhu, Jonathan Hlibka and Euan Mowat took a chance on a struggling single-screen theatre in the heart of Leslieville.

Twelve months later, the trio’s “labour of love” – Projection Booth East at 1035 Gerrard St. E. at Jones Avenue – is a thriving movie house known across the GTA for its art, schlock, indie and foreign fi lms.

“We never imagined we’d get into running a theatre. It’s a crazy scheme that actually worked out. It’s our very own fi lm adventure,” said Sandhu, who alongside Hlibka, co-owns Studio Film Group, a Leslieville-based fi lm distribution, marketing and production company.

The duo handles the day-to-day operations of Projection Booth East, while Mowat, a local entrepreneur who owns the neighbouring Grinder Coffee, takes care of food conces-sions and any logistic details for the 280-seat cinema.

“We’re all passionate about it and we’re having a hell of a great time. It’s really rewarding. We hope we’ll see some of the fi lms we’ve screened here win Academy Awards,” said Sandhu, during a recent interview inside the lobby of the 101-year-old repertory theatre.

She said the idea of opening their own theatre was a bit of a pipe dream at fi rst as she and Hlibka were facing a lot of challenges fi nding locations to screen the fi lms they were trying to promote for their clients.

“I’d been eyeing the space for some time. I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be great if we walked to the end of the street to see a movie?’” laughed Sandhu, admitting they both had no idea how much work was required

to run a theatre. “It’s been a lot of fun. That’s why

we do it. It’s been a great ride. You just have to expect the unexpected and roll with it sometimes.”

Aside from a lot of hard work, Sandhu said it was also a case of being at the right place at the right time as well as having a little bit of good luck along the way, which included connecting with charis-matic local entrepreneur, Mowat,

who is passionate about improving the local retail strip.

“I guess the timing was right. The (former) Gerrard Cinema wasn’t doing so well. Everything just fell into place,” she said, adding the key to success at Projection Booth East has been having an open mind when it comes to programming and booking the space.

IDEAS WELCOME

“Anything is possible. We’re will-ing to give things a try. We can try out whatever we want to reach our market,” she said.

In the past year, the cinema has held Bollywood Basement nights on Sundays, playing retro south Asian fi lms found in the theatre’s basement.

They’ve programmed Monsters & Martians sci-fi fi lm nights, a con-cept so well-received it’s now being rolled out as a four-day fi lm festi-val, the fi rst of its kind in Canada, this November at Projection Booth East.

They’ve screened retro cartoons for kids Saturday mornings, Super Punch kung-fu nites on Saturday evenings and monthly horror fi lm “Fright Nights,” and a Monty Python-a-thon, to name just a few.

“We’ve done some crazy stuff. We’re learning along the way and lis-

tening to feedback,” Sandhu said. “We’re open to people coming

and pitching us their ideas and we’ll see if we can make it work. So far there hasn’t been a night we couldn’t do. You name it. The sky’s the limit.”

Scores of people and groups have also rented the space for all kinds of events from comedy nights to private fi lm screenings to live music events and shadow cast presenta-tions. There’s even been a marriage proposal.

This spring, some interesting clues about the century-old the-atre’s past came to light with the discovery in May of two “secret” storage rooms on either side of the movie screen.

“I was basically looking behind the screen and a saw mezzanine so I climbed up and found two large rooms,” said Gareth McGorman, a part-time staff member at Projection Booth East.

Inside those dusty spaces, he found a verwitable treasure trove of fi lm paraphernalia from bygone eras including pieces of sets, a Union Jack flag, clothing, posters from silent fi lm serials, several piano rolls for silent fi lms (the oldest one dates back to 1915), and even an edition of the Toronto Telegraph newspaper from 1931.

Your VieW

How well do you recycle? Do you ensure every-thing that should go into your green bin makes it in there?

The merits of public and private garbage collection systems in Toronto will continue to be debated. It’s a debate that was renewed last week when the resi-dential portion of the city from Yonge Street to the Humber River officially switched to a private system of collection.

This now means about half of the city – west of Yonge – has privatized collection (Etobicoke has had its residential waste collected privately since before amalgamation). The remainder of the city continues to have its residential waste collected by city employ-ees.

But let’s think beyond the method of collection. Let’s think about what we, as residents, are doing.

Residents must use this time as an opportunity to embrace better habits of their own when they put out their waste for col-lection. We must ask ourselves: Are we doing all we can?

Doing all we can means ensuring residential waste is properly diverted into garbage, recycling and green bins.

This may mean taking a bit of sorting time before-hand. Refer to your waste collection calendar or use the Waste Wizard online tool to get more information if you’re unsure about what goes where. Accessing information is straightforward; it’s not hard.

According to figures from the City of Toronto, our recycling has a 20 per cent contamination rate (refer-ring to items that can’t be recycled). Reducing that number is a meaningful and achievable goal.

Ultimately, waste that’s properly sorted before col-lection means more efficient collection. That’s ulti-mately better for the taxpayer. That’s the benefit.

As for the public versus private collection debate, let it continue. Will cost-saving success experienced by this program merit expansion? Will the dire warn-ings of worsening service be correct? Maybe further adjustments to Toronto’s garbage collection system won’t even be deemed necessary.

Regardless of that outcome, there are manageable tasks we as residents can do now.

The first week wasn’t perfect for the new service provider, as reports of delays surfaced. As much as one would like the smoothest of transitions in a service as important as waste collection, sometimes that’s not always possible – particularly in a large city.

A core component of elected representation is ensuring efficient and effective delivery of services. Constituents can do their part by ensuring as little of Toronto’s waste as possible goes to landfill.

Reader suggests we talk about sychronizing traffic lights

Cuts hurting our childrenWe are concerned to learn that cutbacks the provincial government is making to doc-tors’ compensation threaten the viability of pediatricians’ practices in our commu-nity.

Our pediatrician recently provided an outstanding example of why we need local doctors caring for our children.

In May, our second child was born. A communication mix-up at the hospital had our son discharged before a blood test for jaundice was done. Two days after he left the hospital, we took him to see our pediatrician.

She was suspicious some-thing had been missed and ordered a blood test. At 11 p.m. she called us twice to warn us our son was in danger and we had to take him to the hospital.

Our local pediatrician saved our son from brain damage or death. When kids’ health is an issue, voters have long memories. Protect local pediatricians by telling your MPP to reverse the cutbacks that threaten their offices.

Nicholas and Katherine Manning

Everybody talks about grid-lock, but those in charge are obviously not interested in the extra work it may need.

Years ago I contacted my councillor about syn-chronizing traffic lights on major routes in the GTA. He referred the matter to one of the fellows in charge for our district.

That’s where it died.Considering the City

of Hamilton introduced this system many years ago, why are our people

ignoring the possibility of moving traffic just a little faster?

In Hamilton it is possible to drive from one end of the city to the other without ever having to stop at a traf-fic light, while driving at the proper speed limit.

Just consider the amount of pollution we can avoid by not forcing all vehicles to a continuous stop and go. How much pollution does a single truck emit in this system? And how much less

expensive is this sugges-tion, compared to building subways?

There is no guarantee drivers will switch to sub-ways and the big trucks will still have to deliver their loads.

The word “synchroniz-ing” has recently appeared when we talk about grid-lock, but has the possibility actually been discussed seriously?

Please lend your support to this idea whose time

came long ago. Let’s get the people in

charge of traffic lights moving by putting pressure on them.

If Hamilton can do it, so can Toronto. And if it requires more one-way streets, so be it. An additional benefit will be to discourage speeders and save gasoline. Or is big gas actually supporting a system that increases their sales?

It’s disheartening to learn funding for many of the youth programs in Toronto’s priority neighbourhoods is running out.

While these programs are important, they are only the first step and more needs to be done to stem poverty in

priority neighbourhoods. There have been many

media reports and aca-demic studies that have documented the difficulties of young people entering the labour market. This literature shows the situation is consid-erably more dire for racialized

graduates.The most effective way

of eliminating poverty is to tackle its root causes: under-employment, unemployment and lower average pay for marginalized communities.

Numerous studies have shown that marginalized

communities have lower employment and participa-tion rates and are compen-sated less for their labour.

By minimizing labour market inequities, we can reduce poverty and its asso-ciated effects.

JOANNA LAVOIE [email protected]

A new 30-year plan to finance and implement the redevelopment of the nearly 1,000-acre port lands has been unveiled.

Waterfront Toronto, alongside the City of Toronto, presented the multi-phase concept to reporters hours before a large public meeting at the Toronto Reference Library. (Those who were unable to attend can still take part by visiting www.portlandsconsultation.ca. An online version of the gathering’s round-table discussions will be open until Friday.)

“We’ve really confirmed this is the right direction and we’ve found ways to do it better,” said John Campbell, the waterfront agency’s president and CEO Aug. 8.

He said in many ways the original plan, which includes flood protect-ing and re-naturalizing the mouth of the Don River, continues to remain intact.

What’s been modified is the estimated cost to do so, as well as how it will be carried out, said Campbell, adding the $1.9 billion redevelopment – which has been

reduced by about $500 million in infrastructure costs from the origi-nal plan presented two years ago – would take place in six phases starting with Cousins and Polson quays, the Film Studio Precinct, the Lower Don Lands, the River Mouth Naturalization and finishing with the balance of the port lands north of the ship channel.

Financing options

Obtaining funding to get the ini-tial flood protection and infrastruc-ture work started is another hurdle the city and Waterfront Toronto have also mapped out, said David Kusturin, Waterfront Toronto’s chief operating officer.

He said a number of financing options are being explored for the redevelopment of the port lands including obtaining money from the private sector, city-wide and area-specific development charges, loans from the city or other levels of government against future land sales.

Lastly, Kusturin said money could also come from Section 37 of the Planning Act, where developers to pay for local amenities in exchange

for additional height and density allowances.

Getting money from tax incre-ment financing is not part of the “break even or better” plan, he said pointing to the many challenges to redeveloping the port lands, nota-bly remediating contaminated soil on the site, which is located in a flood plain and has poor ground conditions that require digging up to 80 feet to the bedrock to ensure future building foundations will be solid.

The lack of adequate or even existing infrastructure such as roads, sewers and watermain is another significant hurdle to overcome, Kusturing added.

The cost of the project also includes creating strong pedestrian, bicycle, transit and road networks as well as numerous green spaces for all to enjoy.

One of the major cost-saving measures is the realignment of the mouth of the Don River so it flows out to the Toronto Harbour at the end of the Cherry Street bridge instead of from the Keating Channel.

Associates was on hand to explain the changes to his firm’s 2010 plan for that important portion of the site, which will now continue to maintain an area for port operations and local industries.

He also spoke about plans to “green” the Don Roadway and sim-plify its capacity to function as a floodway, and make Commissioners Street a focal point.

“This will become a really fan-tastic street in the plan for the city,

eventually,” he said, pointing to “catalytic waterfront sites and cul-tural buildings” in the port lands.

“It’s just going to be an amazing space to live.”

The 300 or so people who recently attended the final public meeting on the plan also had a lot to say about it.

During a facilitated roundtable discussion, attendees sounded off on the port lands as a whole, the

Athletes for the Ontario Summer Games are now in TorontoERIC HEINO [email protected]

After two years of preparation, the Ontario Summer Games (OSG) is now on.

The opening ceremony of the bi-annual Olympic-style competi-tion is at 7 p.m. tonight at Varsity Stadium.

About 2,500 athletes from across the province will be competing in sports from rugby and sailing to fencing and softball Aug. 16 to 19. Eighteen sports are being held at 19 venues across Toronto.

Canoe/kayak is being held in Welland, cycling will take place in Albion Hills, skeet shooting is held in Oshawa, sporting rifle will take place in St. Catharines and the tri-athlon is in Brampton.

Organizing committee chair Rahul Bhardwaj and his team began preparations for the Toronto event only a few months after the completion of the 2010 Games in Sudbury.

The challenge is to take all that planning and make it a reality, he said.

“It is truly remarkable what we have built with these Games,” he said. “The organizing committee has been working for 18 months and now thousands of volunteers are also operating to help the Games. So many people are civically engaged and want to be the best host to their province. They are doing an enor-mous amount of work right now.”

The bulk of the athletes are arriv-ing today.

In addition to preparing 13 ath-lete villages and 22 sporting venues, organizers are also ensuring proper food preparation, making transpor-tation arrangements and managing the opening ceremony.

Mental training

The athletes have a lot to do as well, focusing their minds and making final preparations for what is, for some, the highest level of competition of their lives.

Every athlete approaches the competition differently, but Lana Perry knows the feeling.

A former archery competitor, coach and current administrator with the OSG, Perry understands even the most stoic archers can get high strung, but have to focus on pre-games training.

“Some younger athletes will actually taper their training off so they don’t hurt their muscles and some will amp it up to get more endurance. A lot of what we do becomes mental training. It really

differs depending on athletes,” Perry said.

Athletes also need to fine tune their equipment in preparation for the event.

tweaking for the podiuM

Even though everyone is coming from Ontario, the humidity and weather in Toronto can alter the functionality of equipment, Perry said.

Restringing bows, tweaking rifle sights and double-checking bicycle tires can be the difference between standing on the podium and watch-ing from the stands.

The Games are seen as a gateway to further national and international competition, acting as qualifiers for most of the sports featured during the event, said Crystal Peiris, a games consultant with Sport Alliance of Ontario, the organization in charge of running the Summer Games for the provincial government.

“The Ontario Games are a step-ping stone for athletes to compe-titions like the nationals and the Canada Games, for example.”

The Games play a vital role in the long-term development of Ontario’s sports organizations and foster “unmatched” life skills and values that an athlete wouldn’t necessarily pick up in a classroom, Peiris said.

Blair McIntosh, a former direc-tor of Games for Sport Alliance of Ontario and the director of sport for the 2015 Pan American Games, said the provincial Games teach “discipline, socialization, diversity, acknowledgment... it changes an athlete’s life.”

“We have seen many of our athletes go from playground to (Olympic) podium and then go on after their athletic careers to accomplish great achievements in life,” said McIntosh. “And in almost all cases, they relate who they are and who they have become as a

result of competing in sport.”However, for many of the athletes,

the Games is more than just com-peting, they are also excited about the social experience of meeting like-minded athletes.

“A lot of the time they come away having met some very great people,” said Perry.

“Even just wandering around in the dormitory, they are wearing different uniforms and they get to know each other. Being teenagers, they are very social an y way.”

Tickets are available at each venue for $5. Tickets give people access to all venues for that day only. Pins are also available at each venue for $25, which gives holders access to all venues for the entire competition.

The London Olympics are now his-tory, and there were plenty of ath-letes from Toronto on the Canadian team including two with ties to the east end.

Here’s a brief snapshot of how they fared. Visit insidetoronto.com for a complete list of how Toronto athletes did.

Aaron Brown, 20• 200m: missed out on the 200-

metres final by five one-hundreths of a second and placed ninth overall in a new personal best of 20.42 sec-onds, in the same heat as eventual gold medalist Usain Bolt.

“I was much more relaxed,” Brown said in an interview on the Canadian Olympic Committee website. “It was great chasing Usain Bolt, he pulled me to a personal best. I never thought I would get this close to the final, I was just looking for that per-sonal best and to not finish last.”

Brown qualified for the semifinal with a third-place finish in his heat in a personal best time of 20.55s

“I was so nervous, it is crazy out there,” he said on the Athletics Canada website. “...At around 120m I felt the lactic acid, but I said no way, man, this is the Olympics and just found another gear, ran guys down.”

Brown grew up in the area

of Coxwell Avenue and Gerrard Street, attending Bowmore Road public school before heading to Birchmount Park Collegiate in south Scarborough for their exceptional athlete program.

He was a star in both track and football in school and is attending the University of Southern California on a track scholarship.

Khetag Pliev, 28• wrestling, 96kg: knocked out in

the quarter-final round by eventual gold medalist Jacob Stephen Varner of the U.S.

“I’m not very pleased with the result. Obviously with the next match I could’ve competed for a medal, but I’m still happy that I came and I am here,” said Pliev in an interview on the Canadian Olympic Committee website. “I performed and the overall experience was great. It’s been a long road to get here and I am very proud to represent Canada.” Pliev won his opening round of 16 match over Javier Cortina Lacerra of Cuba.

Four years ago, Pliev, who wrestles out of Team Impact club at Broadview and Danforth, was a homeless person sleeping on a bench in the southwest corrner of Toronto’s Allan Gardens.

“I never entirely gave up on the dream, even when I was on the bench...” he said in an interview.

Born in Ossetia, Russia, he ulti-mately made Canada his permanent home in 2005, settling in Toronto.

The Oral Health ConnectionDiabetes Mellitus - Chronic condition ofaccumulated elevated blood glucose levels.

More and more we are learning of theconnection between conditions in the mouthand systemic or physical health. Diabetes isone such disease. Here are some knownrelationships between diabetes and oralhealth .

1) People with diabetes are 2 to 3 times morelikely to have periodontal disease (diseaseof gum and bone around teeth) than thosewithout.

2) If the diabetes is poorly controlled that riskbecomes even greater.

3) Those with diabetes who also haveperiodontal disease find that controlling bloodglucose levels is more difficult.

4) There is increased illness from heartand kidney disease in type II diabetics withperiodontal disease.

Your dentist and your hygienist regularlyassess periodontal health and may be thefirst to observe any signs of illness. Persistentbleeding, multiple abscesses, fungal infectionsandaworseningof periodontalhealtharesomesigns of poorly controlled diabetes. Healing isalso affected and tissue may often show onlylimited (or no) response to treatment.

As with all disease, being diagnosed earlyand proper management of diabetes is key.Interventions including regular periodontalassessments, frequent scaling and goodhome care regimens can decrease localand systemic inflammation, and has beenshown to make controlling blood glucose lessdifficult.

When was your last assessment?

Do you know someone who should beassessed?

According to the Canadian Diabe-tes Association, nine million Ca-nadians are living with diabetes or prediabetes. There are one mil-lion Canadians who have Type-2 Diabetes and have no idea.

Risk factors for Type-2 Diabetes include being over the age of 40, having a close relative with Type-2 Diabetes, being of Aboriginal, Hispanic, Asian, South Asian or African descent,

a history of gestational diabetes or prediabetes or some evidence of the complications of diabetes, being overweight, having heart disease, high blood pressure or high cholesterol.

It’s important to get checked to see if you are at risk.

With a family history of dia-betes, the wife of the owner of Low Carb Canada developed gestational diabetes during

Do you know how much a funeral costs? Most people have no idea. If you listen to or read currentmulti-media advertising campaigns, you’ll likely believe a funeral costs $10,000 or more.

The reality is if you ‘shop’ around a respectable and dignified funeral service can be arranged for about$5,000. Half of what the advertisements suggest. But yes, if you expand on the service or merchandiseselected or are not careful about the funeral home you select, you can spend alot more than $10,000!Buyer beware!

At Heritage Funeral Centre, most families spend alot less than $10,000 on a full traditional funeralservice including one night of visiting in a premium room followed the next day with a church service andhave a solid hardwood casket. A price much lower than most of our competitors’ prices for comparableservice and casket.

However, there is no question; even a $5,000 funeral is not an inexpensive proposition. At Heritage,we understand this and realize many family’s financial resources are limited.

At Heritage, you can expect to have a completely appropriate service tailored for your budget withoutunnecessary purchases or suspicions about the advice of the Funeral Director. Heritage’s Funeral Directorswork with each family to explore service and merchandise options including government assistanceto make sure each funeral service is within each family’s financial means. They will not attempt to “up sell” butrather give professional advice to keep on budget. Importantly, Heritage’s trusted professionals do not earna commission or bonus based on what they sell nor are they expected to meet any sales quotas. They arethere for you; hopefully making a difficult time a little easier. They are only evaluated on how well theyserve each family.

Heritage Funeral Centre is a full service independently-owned funeral home with a remarkably simple plan: toconsistently be the best value community funeral home in all of Toronto. We offer fair prices, have exceptional,compassionate and patient professional staff, and, an excellent facility that is second-to-none.

her pregnancy. She credits her commitment to eating low-carb foods every day as part of her daily diet for the reason that she is the only member of her family without diabetes.

Knowing that diabetes is a global epidemic and that one in four Canadians are predicted to be diabetic by 2016, opening Low Carb Canada seemed like an easy decision. The store has a wide variety of low-carb foods available online and in store.

Diet plays a large role in your risk for Type-2 Diabetes. Eating a diet filled with high

WoodGreen shares newcomer expertise with Austrian visitorDANIELLE MILLEY [email protected]

With a history of helping newcomers, WoodGreen Community Services shared its expertise with the Austrian State Secretary for Integration last Thursday.

On his two-day visit to Canada, Sebastian Kurz met with Immigration Minister Jason Kenney and Minister of Foreign Affairs John Baird before a short visit to WoodGreen’s Danforth Avenue offices.

One of Toronto’s largest social services organiza-tions, WoodGreen has many programs to help newcom-ers including its five-year-old program for newcomer youth.

In the last few decades Austria has seen the number of immigrants rise and it hasn’t implemented program-ming to help them integrate so Kurz and his delegation came to Canada to learn from its experience.

“We have a lot of work to do. We had a lot of immigrants in the past few decades, but not a lot of work was done. We didn’t do much to foster the integration process so a secretary of integration office was created to do some work,” Kurz said.

Austria has a population of 8.5 million and 20 per cent of its people are immigrants; that number rises to 40 per cent in the capital of Vienna. Immigration has increased in recent years as Austria has a strong economy compared to most of Europe with an unemployment rate of just six per cent.

Each year 140,000 people immigrate to Austria.

“There are a lot of children who are very new (to Austria) and who have problems with the German language so we’re looking for new ideas to help these children get a good education,” he said in an interview.

New ideas

Kurz said 50 per cent of young people in Vienna were born outside the country.

His office was created 16 months ago and he said the situation has steadily gotten better, but they’re still looking for new ideas.

WoodGreen’s newcomer youth program sees on aver-age more than 100 youth a month of whom 80 per cent have been in Canada less than three years with 40 per cent having arrived in the past year.

Anwesha Sen came to Canada from India with her family 13 months ago; she’s been a part of the program at WoodGreen for a year.

“There are ups and downs to being a newcomer,” she said. “( WoodGreen) has been a constant outside of my home family.”

Kurz spoke with Sen and several of the other youth who were at WoodGreen for its summer program. (Some even asked for the politician’s autograph).

“It gave me a lot of con-fidence coming here and talking to people who have similar stories,” she said of the program.

Shaida Addetia, manager of settlement services, said when the program first started the staff would go into schools and try to make connections with youth.

They quickly learned students wouldn’t come to the program to speak with counsellors about issues they were experiencing, but if the program was organized around a variety of clubs or activities such as trips to the Royal Ontario Museum, they would begin to attract youth who in turn would begin to trust the staff and open up.

“They forgot that they did not belong because they do belong here and then they start sharing,” Addetia said. “This is a safe place for them. They know this.”

They also have a home-work club to help the youth with school and they help get youth involved in volunteer-ing to foster citizenship.

It’s best practices such as these that Austrian officials wanted to learn about.

“We have learned you have to work hard to foster the integration process,” Kurz said.

“It doesn’t happen by acci-dent.”

Cleaning Up Our Waterways:The Don River and Central Waterfront ProjectMunicipal Class Environmental Assessment - Notice of Study Completion

The City ofToronto has completed a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) Study to advance the recommendations of the City’sWetWeather Flow Master Plan (approved by City Council in 2003) to capture and treat polluted stormwater and combined sewer overflows(CSO’s) that are discharged to the Don River and CentralWaterfront. This will help to improve water quality and our environment. In addition,necessary upgrades have been identified to the City’s critical sanitary trunk sewer infrastructure within the study area to improve operationsand service future growth.

The study has defined the problems/opportunities, identified and evaluated alternatives, and determined a preferred solution and design inconsultation with the City ofToronto, regulatory agencies, and the public.The City has accepted the consultant’s recommendations regardingthe preferred solution and design, including the following project components:

SanitaryTrunk Sewer Systeml A Lower Don/Coxwell BypassTunnel that will be used on a contingency basis as a bypass to the existing Coxwell SanitaryTrunk Sewer

(STS) allowing for periodic maintenance and any necessary repairs of the Coxwell STS,l Four underground storage tanks for offline storage of peak sanitary flows where additional capacity is needed.l Upgrades to the NorthTorontoTreatment Plant (NTTP).

Wet Weather Flow Collection and Storage Systeml Three integrated tunnels (Lower Don/Coxwell BypassTunnel,Taylor Massey CreekTunnel, and Inner HarbourTunnel) connected to an

equivalent of 15 underground vertical storage shafts that will collect and store wet weather flows and convey these flows to a new wetweather flow treatment facility.

l Three underground storage tanks for offline storage of wet weather flows from four remote outfall locations.

Treatment of Collected Wet Weather Flowl A new wet weather treatment facility that will provide high-rate treatment of wet weather flows and will be located on future lakefill in the

waterlot south of the existing Ashbridges BayTreatment Plant.l A new pumping station in Ashbridges Grove Park with forcemains connecting to the new wet weather flow treatment facility.l Retrofit of an existing CSO tank at the NorthTorontoTreatment Plant.

Opportunities for ReviewThe study was carried out following the requirements for Schedule ‘C’ projects under the Municipal Class EA. An Environmental StudyReport (ESR) has been completed and placed on public record for a 45-day review period starting August 10, 2012 and ending September 24,2012.The ESR will be available for review on the project website at www.toronto.ca/cleanwaterways and at the following locations:

NEW LISTING

98 Kingsmount Park Road

You want to move. You want to buy a new home.

Unfortunately, you are al-ready living in one and aren't sure whether you should sell it before buying, or perhaps pur-chase one first and let the chips fall where they may. To help with this, take a look at some signs to watch for during the decision making process.

SignS you Should buy

before Selling:

• You found your dream home: It happens. We walk into a home and it is everything we've ever wanted and, now, can't live without. If the home is within your budget and it makes sense for you to buy first, snap it up before someone else does.

• It's a sellers' market: If there is a high demand for homes, then buying before selling is

a wise decision. You get a new home quickly and you can likely unload your old home right away.

• SignS you Should Sell before buying:

• You're not willing to budge on price: If you are not flex-ible on your asking price, then it may be best to sell before buying a home. When you buy first, there's a good chance that

you'll have to bend on your asking price if no one is biting.

•• Money is tight: If you are barely making ends meet, then it would likely be diffi-cult to maintain two homes for any period of time. Opting to sell your home first and have a little cushion in the bank before closing another home deal may be best in such a situation.

Port lands needs to have character, residents sayLower Don Lands/Don River con-figuration, the business case and the next steps.

People expressed a desire for the site to have more character, to have imaginative architecture and be more appealing. They also called for a focal point for the 1,000-acre tract, not just wall-to-wall condos.

Some expressed concerns about the parcels of land in the various phases relating to other tracts in a way that doesn’t jeopardize the overall vision for the port lands, while others said it’s unfortunate a “magical” and award-winning plan for the mouth of the Don River has been sacrificed in the name of saving money.

Attendees also spoke about die-hard local industries and port uses “constraining” the vision for the port lands and said they should be relocated south on the ship chan-nel to free up this space for more public uses.

Investing in transit and having

Metrolinx, the provincial agency charged with coordinating and inte-grating a range of transit solutions for the GTA and Hamilton area, make transit a priority in the port lands was also raised.

Further, those in attendance said they’re very interested in being kept abreast of the plan and timelines.

The report on the Port Lands Acceleration Initiative will be considered by Mayor Rob Ford’s Executive Committee Sept. 10 and by city council Oct. 3.

Once approved by the city, the Environmental Assessment for Don Mouth Naturalization Project could then take nine to 18 months to be approved by the provincial Ministry of the Environment. Visit www.port-landsconsultation.ca

Last summer, Ward 2 Councillor Doug Ford proposed scrapping the existing plans for the port lands in favour of building a Ferris wheel, monorail, mega mall. Council voted instead to continue working with Waterfront Toronto.

Upcoming plans for movie theatreMcGorman also located a

number of large movie posters including one of the circa 1937 film Seventh Heaven starring James Stewart as well as posters for Meet Me on Broadway (1946), The Song You Gave Me (1933) and Life with Blondie, a 1954 film based on the Archie newspaper comics.

“Some of the artifacts we found are in poor shape but some are salvageable,” said McGorman, who has a background in archiving.

“It was pretty exciting to find all this stuff. The first thing I did was document it all.”

Sandhu said aside from being able to trace the various names of the former Gerrard Cinema includ-ing The Athenian, The Wellington, The Bonita and The Sri Lakshmi, they haven’t been able to uncover much else relating to its past.

“In other movie theatres, you can trace their history but this one sort of falls off the grid,” she said, inviting anyone with stories, anec-dotes or historical information to get in touch.

Sandhu said the hope down the

line is to set up a display about the theatre’s history in the lobby area.

In the coming months, the plan is to renovate the inside of the main theatre space and expand the front stage area so it’s more convenient for music and theatre bookings.

Sandhu also said they’d also like to clean up and use those two stor-age areas as green rooms.

Projection Booth East has also recently started up “Projection Booth To Go,” a new loyalty card

that entitles members to an indie movie rental membership, one free movie ticket and one free rental, a dollar off every film and event night and other discounts and offers from local restaurants and merchants.

Projection Booth Metro

On another note, Sandhu and Hlibka have also recently inked a deal with the Metro Theatre on Bloor Street West at Christie Street to run that two-screen venue in the same “art-schlock-indie-foreign” film format as Projection Booth East.

Called Projection Booth Metro, the new sister space is currently being upgraded and the plan is to start screening films there in the evenings and on weekends by the end of the month.

An official grand opening party for the new west-end the-atre is in the works for the end of September.

For more information or to view a schedule of screening times and events, visit www.projectionbooth.ca

Staff at the Projection Booth East found two ‘secret’ rooms filled with movie memorabilia.
