Vulnerable residents work togetherto fight food insecurity in TorontoJUSTIN SKINNER [email protected]

While solving the problem of food insecurity will

require a concerted effort from all levels of government, there is a great deal being done at a more grassroots level to help make sure Torontonians can put food on their plates.

Organizations such as

Community Food Centres Canada (CFC), FoodShare, Building Roots and the Toronto Youth Food Policy Council (TYFPC) are engag-ing vulnerable Torontonians through a variety of programs and initiatives, providing not only food but opportunity.

CFC Chief Operating Officer Kathryn Scharf (www.cfccanada.ca) said aware-ness of food security issues is growing, as is action to

combat them. Her orga-nization originated out of The Stop Community Food Centre on Davenport Road, and now there are three such organizations in Toronto and eight across Canada.

“With almost one in 10 households experiencing food insecurity, we don’t have a hard time finding communities that could use a Community Food Centre,”

Black Lives Matter – Toronto will be watching over the next year to see if Pride Toronto imple-ments the nine demands to which organizers appeared to agree on Sunday afternoon – including a total ban of police presence at the annual Pride Parade.

“Now it’ll just be a matter of seeing how those demands are followed up,” said Black Lives Matter – Toronto spokesperson Leroi Newbold in an interview Monday.

One of the more controversial demands is one that asks police

not be present at the parade. Newbold clarified that Black Lives Matter not only wanted police to not participate in the parade, but also not to police it, leaving security to Pride organizers.

“We are asking Pride to take a look at what it means for black communities to have a police presence at Pride,” said Newbold. “For example there are many black LGBT youth who’ve had interactions with police. I think it’s important for some people to understand that even the presence of police at an event like this creates an unsafe environment.”

| Thursday, July 7, 20163 special report

she said, adding that finding local partners willing to help deliver services is a key part of what her organization does.

Scharf noted that while teaching healthy food skills, offering cooking groups and classes, providing after-school programs where kids can have healthy snacks and creating community gardens are all great ways to combat food insecurity, the key is in making sure more Canadians can earn a living wage.

However, that’s something that will only come about when governments mandate it, said Scharf.

“The key is to fight poverty, fight for housing, increase wages and social assistance rates,” she said. “We can push for those things at a grassroots level, but we can’t make them happen.”

Darcy Higgins of Building Roots (www.pushfoodfor-ward.com/buildingroots) agreed that a wage policy, along with better social sup-port, is the best permanent solution, adding his orga-nization is doing its best in the meantime to bring food access to where people need it most.

“We’re trying to bring fresh food at affordable prices to where people need it most,” he said.

“We have a Moss Park Market that just opened in a shipping container on Toronto Community Housing property, and that’s a model we’re hoping to rep-licate in other communities. We’re exploring and looking for partners across the city, especially in the suburbs.”

He said those battling food insecurity can also benefit from connecting with community agencies that can help teach them to cut costs and stretch their food budgets further, by joining cooking programs run by

not-for-profits, or by grow-ing their own food, perhaps in community gardens near where they live.

The Ashbridge Estate near Queen and Greenwood is a prime example of using available space to bolster food security. A new commu-nity garden has been planted there by Syrian refugees to complement an existing community garden at the site.

“There are so many communities – especially lower-income communities – where there aren’t stores for people to buy fresh food,” Higgins said. “It tends to be more convenience stores (instead of affordable grocery stores with more healthy options) in those communi-ties, so you have to look at other solutions.”

Toronto Youth Food Policy Council (www.tyfpc.ca) co-chair Melana Roberts said projects to boost food secu-rity can range from relatively small in scale, such as new

pop-up food markets being launched at TTC subway sta-tions at Downsview, Kipling and Victoria Park stations, to Malvern Eats – a community lunch that hosts as many as 300 guests – to the CEED (community eco economic development), which could see hydro corridors turned into community gardens.

“We’re working with Toronto Public Health and looking at four different sites where (CEED) could work,” she said, noting those sites include Rexdale, northeast Scarborough, Flemingdon Park and the Danforth and Victoria Park area. “They’re in neighbourhoods charac-terized as priority neighbour-hoods with a really diverse mix of residents in terms of age, socioeconomic back-ground and ethnicity.”

FoodShare (www.food-share.net), meanwhile, helps various organizations bring food to communities by combining their buying power. Rather than having

each organization make con-nections and buy goods, they can pool their resources and make bulk purchases from the Ontario Food Terminal, stretching those dollars fur-ther.

“There’s $29 million spent a year by non-profit agencies in the community food sector (each year in Toronto,)” said Shawn Conway of FoodShare. “That’s a lot of buying power.”

“We started out with an emphasis on fresh produce, but now we have a dairy line and a bread line as well.”

Many other organiza-tions across the city are helping to keep vulnerable Torontonians fed, but they all acknowledge their work is simply addressing the symp-toms of the type of poverty that leads to food insecurity.

They say it’s ultimately up to government to determine if and when a permanent solution to the issue will be presented.

Food is an essential pillar of city building.That’s the premise behind a recently released report

titled Food by Ward: Food Assets and Opportunities in Toronto.

The report, which took about a year to put together, was initially launched by the Toronto Food Policy Council (TFPC) as a way to engage with municipal candidates during the 2014 election on the topic of food security.

Now that the election is over, the TFPC is continuing to work with elected officials as well as community organizations and individuals to advocate for more food security programs and initiatives.

Using resources from Toronto Public Health, Food by Ward provides a snapshot of food assets across Toronto’s 44 municipal wards, said Rachel Gray, chair of the Toronto Food Policy Council, during a recent interview.

Gray, who is the executive director of The Stop Community Food Centre, said the findings of Food by Ward can and should be used to help identify food priorities and come up with viable ways to improve the availability of affordable, healthy food across the city.

She said the areas that tend to be lacking the most are the suburban, and often lower-income parts of the city where people usually need a vehicle to go to the grocery store. The outer portions of the city are also often where marginalized individuals live, including those on fixed incomes, and newcomers.

Gray also said a lot of the findings in Food by Ward mirror those of the groundbreaking 2010 Three Cities Within Toronto report by David Hulchanski of the University of Toronto, which looked at income polar-ization in the city from 1970 to 2005.

The good news is that food insecurity problems can be improved when people and organizations come together, Gray said, pointing to simple things that can make a huge difference like community gardens and community food programs. And fortunately, a lot of people are interested in getting involved, she added. At Food by Ward’s launch event recently at Toronto City Hall, more than 100 community food champions as well as more than a third of Toronto city councillors same out to show their support.

A staged sit-in protest by the Toronto chapter of Black Lives Matter last Sunday at the Pride Parade certainly has people talking.

But are they talking for the right reasons? Given the status as an Honoured Group for the

parade, Black Lives Matter effectively halted the parade for half an hour as they issued a list of nine demands.

The annual parade that capped off Pride Month only began to move again once Pride Toronto executive director Mathieu Chantelois signed the document, seemingly agreeing to those demands, which included reinstating and committing to increase community stages as well as the removal

of police floats in Pride marches and parades.

The latter, not surprisingly, has been getting a lot of attention with Toronto Police Association president Mike McCormack con-demning Pride Toronto for sign-ing the paper and accusing Black Lives Matter of “hijacking” the

grand event Sunday. People on Twitter had plenty to say about it too,

many siding with police and recognizing their con-tributions over the years to support the growing Pride movement.

It seems counterproductive and counterintuitive to exclude police from a parade celebrating inclu-sivity, especially as some in the LGBT community also work in the police force.

While the protest brought both public and media attention to Black Lives Matter, the reasons for the protest were overshadowed by the tactics. People are talking about whether it was appropriate or justified to do what they did during the parade, rather than how events like Pride can be even more inclusive and welcoming to other marginalized communities.

Perhaps continuing the dialogue at the upcoming community meetings on anti-racism that the pro-vincial government is hosting this summer is a good place to start.

The first meeting is scheduled to take place in Toronto on July 14 with another in Scarborough on Sept. 13.

For effective change to occur, Black Lives Matter must first gain the public’s empathy and support for their cause.

OuR ViEW

Continue dialogue of inclusiveness

Group’s tactics overshadow issues at Pride Parade

Black Lives Matter parade protest not surprisingIt’s hard to know what to make of the Black Lives Matter – Toronto (BLMTO)/ Pride Toronto dust-up.

That, of course, won’t stop me from weighing in on the spectacle – even if it wasn’t really much of one.

To recap: Black Lives Matter – Toronto, a group that has seen great success staging discomfiting public protests, accepted an invita-tion from Pride Toronto (another group that has in the past seen great success staging discomfiting public protests) to be an “honoured guest” at this year’s Pride Parade.

And things went exactly as you’d expect: a discomfiting public protest, in the form of a disruption to the Pride Parade that was only able to resume once Pride Toronto had “agreed” to a list of demands from BLMTO.

Among those demands? No coppers please, at future Pride parades.

The pearl-clutching began. The Toronto Police Association demanded Pride

Toronto apologize for sign-ing off on the deal. Mayor John Tory, through his office, joined voices on Toronto council including local coun-cillor and longtime Pride supporter Kristyn Wong-Tam to make it clear that police should be welcomed at the parade for if nothing else than the purpose of keeping open lines of communica-tion between the LGBTQ2S community and the police.

And finally Pride Toronto’s executive director Mathieu Chantelois made it clear himself that signing a deal with BLMTO, while he was trying to simply get the parade moving, wasn’t going to be binding, and ultimately, Pride and the community would make the final decision. It would be an excellent bet that police will be back in the parade next year.

It’s tempting to look at all

this from the outside and dismiss it as silliness, or an “inside-baseball” dispute… tempting to see this as a bit of a nadir for Black Lives Matter, pulling a disruptive stunt at what was otherwise a healing event for a com-munity still processing the massacre in Orlando – all to extract promises that won’t be kept, and for the most part are over internal Pride matters that might have been dealt with as well using nothing more than a few stern emails.

That is, however, miss-ing the point of successful protest movements like Black Lives Matter, which are combatting not only very small issues, but very, very large ones.

A few days earlier, Metropolitan Community Church pastor and gay rights activist Brent Hawkes stood with police Chief Mark Saunders for what had been billed an historic apology by police for the bath house raids in the early 1980s that destroyed the lives of clos-

eted gay men, and ruined businesses.

An apology was a big thing, but also a small thing – and Hawkes spoke that day of how he had contacted the chief, and negotiated an apology, and that some-times, negotiation was necessary.

The only trouble? At the end of all that negotiation, Saunders did not in fact apologize; he very deliber-ately expressed “regrets” for police actions, and promised to do better – and really, with that, closed the matter as far as police were concerned.

It’s comforting to think that change can happen with comfortable negotia-tion. But the reality is that genuine change requires an irritant to motivate it. Black Lives Matters understands that, and so of course they showed up in full, irritating glory on Sunday.

Newbold dismissed the suggestion that Pride Toronto would be legally required to pay for off-duty police officers in order to simply obtain the necessary permits to hold the parade.

Early indications are that that and the other eight demands won’t necessarily be implemented by the Pride Committee. In an interview with The Toronto Star, Pride

Toronto’s Executive Director Mathieu Chantelois said that although he signed an agreement to cede to the demands, the next course of action will be decided by Pride’s membership and the community.

“What’s important for people to know is that I’m not deciding what’s in the parade, Alica (Hall, co-chair of Pride’s board of directors) doesn’t decide what’s in the

parade, Black Lives Matter doesn’t… decide what’s in the parade,” he said. “Who’s deciding what’s in the parade is the membership, and my community… We will let them have the final word. What I did (Sunday) was made the parade move.”

The Pride Parade was brought to a standstill when members of Black Lives Matter – Toronto (which had been invited as an honoured

guest) stopped in their tracks on Church Street, backing up other parade floats behind it, and its members demanded immediate action on a set of nine demands.

Chantelois met with them at the parade and signed the nine demands. Newbold said the group is taking the com-mitment seriously, but noted that the issues that the black queer community has had with Pride are longstand-ing.

“We did get a sign off so we’ll continue,” Newbold said. “This isn’t the begin-ning of the black community’s resistance, we’ve been having these conversations for years. They may not have been get-ting the media attention but we’ve been having them for years.”

Mayor John Tory, however, made it clear through his office that he supports having police at the parade.

“The Toronto Police have and continue to make signifi-cant efforts under the leader-ship of Chief (Mark) Saunders to build bridges with the

LGBTQ2S community,” the statement reads.

Local Councillor Kristyn Wong-Tam was conciliatory Monday following the meet-ing and defended Black Lives Matter – Toronto’s decision to protest in the context of the larger tradition of protest that is at the heart of Pride.

“That’s a very appropri-ate place for political dissent and political messaging,” said Wong-Tam. “Nobody should take that away from

Black Lives Matter. Pride is not just about beer gardens and $10 corn on the cob. It’s much more. Our community is only ever stronger when we come together. It is important to continue the conversation. There are racialized and vul-nerable people in our com-munity that don’t always feel welcome.”

With that said, Wong-Tam said she doesn’t agree with asking police to stay away from the parade.

Six months after shut-ting down, Goodwill has announced it is coming back to Toronto.

Michelle Quintyn, presi-dent and CEO of Goodwill Ontario Great Lakes, said the plan is to open the first stores in 2017, although the exact number and locations are yet to be determined.

“We are expanding our existing infrastructure,” she said in a phone interview last week.

“It will take some time for us to come back. This involves rigorous planning, demographics planning, find-ing real estate, and building the organization from a fresh start.”

Goodwill Industries of Toronto, Eastern, Central, and Norther n Ontar io (TECNO) closed its doors in January, costing more than 400 employees their jobs.

While acknowledging it might take some time, Quintyn said she’s hope-ful to restore the jobs lost in Toronto, and to bring in more.

“It could take five years to bring back 400 jobs,” she said, adding each regional Goodwill is independently operated. “When we open a store, we typically create 35 to 40 jobs.”

Goodwill TECNO filed for bankruptcy in February, citing $6 million in debt, $4.2 million of which was owed to former employees for vaca-tion and severance pay.

Former Goodwill TECNO CEO Keiko Nakamura said at the time a bankruptcy filing was made in the hopes of restructuring and reopen-ing the stores, but later said the defunct company was too deep in debt to claw its way out.

Goodwill TECNO’s 16 stores, 10 donation centres and two offices in Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Newmarket, Barrie, Orillia, and Brockville closed Jan. 16. The shutdown came without warning to employees, whose collective agreement required at least 30 days notice of clo-sures.

The collapse affected 530 unionized and non-unionized workers.

The TTC will hold public con-sultations for Wheel-Trans use starting this week.

Intended to update the public on changes to the accessible transit service as per provincial guidelines, the first consult was scheduled to take place on Tuesday. Subsequent meetings will take place July 12 in Scarborough at the Civic Centre, July 14 at North York Memorial Community Hall, and July 21 at Father John Redmond Secondary School, 28 Col. Samuel Smith Park Dr. in Etobicoke. All meetings start at 6:30 p.m.

According to the TTC, the service registers 1,000 new riders a month and 11,000 door-to-door trips a day.

wOPP ISSUES 6,500 TICKETS On wEEKEnd

It was a busy Canada Day holi-day weekend for the OPP.

After the provincial police force vowed to crack down on speeders, impaired driv-ers and other law-breaking motorists, it issued 6,500 tickets province-wide over the long weekend. While the

vast majority of the tickets were for speeding, the OPP also laid 126 impaired driv-ing charges and issued warn-ings to 55 drivers. Eighty-four vehicles were also impounded for street racing. No deaths were reported.

The OPP was also active on the water, laying impaired boating charges on 55 indi-viduals over the weekend.

wCYCLISTS, PEdESTRIAnS STRUCK ACROSS CITY

It was another fatal day on the streets of Toronto.

A 70-year-old man was killed on Monday after being hit by the driver of a van in Rexdale. The incident was just one of 13 separate incidents that same day where pedes-trians or cyclists were struck in all corners of the city.

If that wasn’t enough, 10 separate incidents were reported over the Canada Day weekend, either involving

pedestrians or cyclists. Next week, Toronto Council

will debate recommendations for a new plan to improve road safety.

wSUBwAY SPEEd RESTRICTIOnS LIFTEd

The trains headed for Bloor-Yonge might be moving a little faster than usual.

The TTC announced it has lifted restricted speeds in place on the outdoor track section between Summerhill and Rosedale stations, which were instituted for safety con-cerns last month. The restric-tions resulted in trains moving at a snail’s pace to and from Bloor station and seem to be an ongoing occurrence due to the conditions of the outdoor track section on Line 1, which is more than 60 years old and has needed to undergo exten-sive rehabilitation work in the recent past just to extend its shelf-life.

With boating deaths on the rise, Toronto Police Services’ Marine Unit is urging cau-tion while making use of local waterways.

The increase in deaths is surprising considering it was only 2015 the rate had dropped

to a 10-year low according to the Ontario Provincial Police. The marine unit attributes the grim statistic to a variety of factors, not the least of which is alcohol. The unit reminds anyone out in a vessel on the water, whether to fish, canoe

or jet-ski, should have a life jacket on as such personal floatation devices can act as a “first defence” against peril.

Also, pay close attention to the weather and avoid going out when there’s threat of a storm.

Councillor Sarah Doucette told constituents in her weekly e-newsletter follow-ing the June 23 committee meeting.

Once reviewed, the report will go back to the committee in September, followed by a vote by Toronto City Council at its meeting in October.

“Based on feedback from residents, and working with the Ward 11 councillor and others who have had shelters open in their wards, I put for-ward a number of initiatives and strategies to strengthen community supports in the local area,” the Ward 13 coun-cillor said.

Both Doucette and col-league York South-Weston Councillor Frances Nunziata put forth complementary motions – which passed

unanimously – to address c o m m u n i t y c o n c e r n s regarding the proposal. D o u c e t t e ’ s m o t i o n includes:

• the creation of a com-

munity liaison committee comprised of representatives from both wards 11 and 13, local residents, agency staff, clients, councillors and city staff that would work on

Councillors’ motions to help ease community concernsthe shelter’s establishment in its new location and to “refine” the shelter service program;

• a third party expert to work with staff and the com-munity liaison committee to design the exterior of the shelter to ensure that it’s functional and attractive;

• and a ‘Safe Growth’ plan for the York-Weston-Junction area to address issues of safety

and security, a ‘community response’ plan that outlines standards for responding to neighbours’ concerns and to conduct a safety audit of Runnymede Park.

Nunziata’s motion directs city staff to “work with coun-cillors, the local community and other stakeholders to develop a plan for a shelter program that will meet the needs of an appropriate

number of homeless men at 731 Runnymede Rd. and make a positive contribution to the neighbouring com-munity.”

Neither councillor is a member of the committee; however, both attended the meeting to hear the deputa-tions and to participate in the debate.

Dan Pearce/MetrolanDLast month, Ward 11 residents attended a community meet-ing regarding a proposed men’s shelter for the St. Clair and Runnymede area. Consultations will continue throughout the summer.
