Drums of city’s cycling war seem to be silencedIt is springtime and even in this slow, hesitant, let’s-be-honest-way-too-chilly springtime, it’s hard not to think about bicycles.
Now that is not to say we all think the same thing about bicycles. Alongside light rail, UberX, the Gardiner Expressway and subways, subways, sub-ways, the place of two-wheeled locomotion divides opinion in this town better than a curb-separated bikeway. It was only six years ago that an entire election was fought over bicycles, after over-reaching cycling advocates managed to convince council to paint bike lanes on Jarvis. That was it: the ‘war on the car,’ and everybody was in: the motorists from Don Mills and Leaside and Rosedale, who favoured Jarvis as a fast route downtown; the bicyclists who favoured Jarvis as a less bumpy alternative to the cracked and heaving lanes on Sherbourne a few streets over. And of course politicians and newspaper editorialists, who found the controversy to be an effective delineation of the left and the right in matters of urban planning. The lanes didn’t last long after the 2010 election. That removal led to a kind of truce. Denzil Minnan-Wong, who chaired the Public Works and Environment Committee, created a Berlin Wall of sorts on Toronto’s roads, pushing the creation of fully separated cycle tracks: first on a no-longer-bumpy Sherbourne, and then through the downtown on Wellesley, Richmond and Adelaide Streets. Bicycles and cars on these streets have their own separate but parallel routes. It seems to be working out well. Now here we are, in the spring of 2016, and on Monday, April 25, the
Public Works and Infrastructure Committee is taking another step towards what might be a permanent armistice. The com-mittee will be looking at a half-million dollar pilot project, to put cycle paths on Bloor Street West. It’s a short stretch, two and a half kilometres long, between Shaw Street and Avenue Road. If council goes along with the plan, it will go in in September. Oh, what a difference six years and a few cycle tracks make! In 2010, the city’s cycling office might have been proposing a pilot to cross the Rubicon. Bloor Street has long been the prize in the eye of cycling advocates, because of its city-spanning scope. One could take Bloor Street and the Danforth all the way from Scarborough to Etobicoke, in a single not-very-sweaty ride (Bloor and Danforth don’t have any challenging hills to speak of). The late former mayor Rob Ford would have printed up a whole new batch of fridge magnets to rally the troops. These days? John Tory took care when asked about it this week to explain this was only a pilot project and would be assessed without bias when it was finished. But the drums of war seem largely silent.
At the same committee meet-ing, councillors will be considering a few other bike lane projects – these ones, the old-fashioned paint-on-pavement kind. There are 11 of these, and they’re all over the place: most, it’s true, a quick pedal from the down-town, but one up on Sheppard West crossing the Addington Greenbelt. These kinds of lanes used to be big fights too, and maybe they still will be. But in these early days of the season...Hope springs eternal.
We are 112 days into 2016.
In those 112 days, the homicide rate in Toronto has doubled from the same time last year according to the Toronto Police Service. That’s alarming any way you look at it.
As of Monday, 26 people have been murdered in the city. Some in broad daylight, others in the middle of the night. Residents a w o ke n by g u n -shots, alerting them to another funeral, another cordoned off community, another family grieving.
But these crimes in the early part of the year, are not an indicator Toronto is embarking on a murderous rampage of vendettas.
An Toronto police investigator (who spoke on condition of anonymity) interviewed by The Villager address-
ing this spate of violence in the city, directly connects the increase in murders to the abandonment of the controversial carding practice by officers.
Police advocates say that carding is the thin line between those who obey
the law and those who do not. But the fact is, carding is a relatively recent innovation and Toronto police have been solving and pre-venting crimes for decades before such a program existed.
One thing that hasn’t changed in that time is us: people
who are willing to keep an eye on the streets, and who help police investi-gate when a crime occurs.
Crime Stoppers has been an effec-tive way for the public to help keep Toronto safe for a long time. The tip line is anonymous. Use it.
The carding debate is actually a distraction from the real matter at hand. What we should be talking about is the state of our city and how we can ensure it remains safe for everyone - no matter your race, age or gender.
Toronto has a population of 2.6 million people numbers from 2011 show. Twenty-six murders among 2.6 million people is not a very high ratio, but each one has a devasting impact on those who knew and loved the victim.
These numbers, though, are not indicative of a city where people are shuttering themselves away, afraid to leave their homes.
What is needed is more active participation from the public to help prevent crime and bring criminals to justice.
The more active we are in reporting crimes and suspicioius behaviour, the safer we will be.
And hopefully by next year this time, 26 lives will be saved.
Rising homicide rate a cause for concern, but not fear

Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art to move into a former auto building occupying five floors with art of the 21st century
In anticipation of the end of the lease, Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art Curator Advisor (MOCCA) David Liss set out on an arduous mission four years ago to find a new home for the charitable organization.
MOCCA has become a staple in the West Queen West Art and Design District having opened there a decade ago when the area was a little rough around the edges. The location was within the downtown core, in the centre of the action, however, Liss wanted to find a permanent home for the museum.
“The Toronto property market is pretty challenging,” Liss told The Villager during a mid-April afternoon conversation. “I’d outlined a vision of what we wanted. It’s a fairly specific type of building we need.”
So, Liss set about working with real estate experts over the course of the past four years. He met with more than 40 property developers and owners in Toronto, including private owners large and small. Through this process, Liss connected with Castlepoint Numa. Not only is its president Alfredo Romano a successful and profitable builder, but also one who thinks about making a contribution to the city.
“I realized that over a few meetings he seemed to me the right kind of personality. I felt early on that we’d identified a compatible individual,” Liss recalled.

Yet, it would be a few years before Liss exhausted his search and reconnected with Romano in 2014 to discuss details of Castlepoint Numa’s eight-acre ‘Lower Junction Triangle (Lower JCT)’ project at Perth Avenue and Sterling Road that the stars would align.
Once completed, the redevelopment, which will include, commercial, office, retail, cultural and residential space, will bring as many as 2,500 jobs to the neighbourhood, provide a home for 1,000 new residents while creating several community improvements, such as a new day care facility, a new park and green open spaces as well as affordable housing. The site will boast 564,000 square feet of mixed-use space and 540,000 square feet of residential space. As part of the development, Castlepoint Numa will be creating a new entry point to the West Toronto Railpath as well.
MOCCA will take up residency in the auto building as the anchor tenant. Christened the Museum of Contemporary Art_Toronto_Canada, it will be devoted to art of the 21st century and is scheduled to open on May 2 next year. The museum will occupy five floors – 55,000 square ft. – of the 10-storey restored building. Built in 1919, the auto building represents an early example of industrial high-rise construction in Toronto and will remain a highly visible neighbourhood landmark in the emerging area.
“We’re going to be a part of this neighbourhood,” Liss said. “We’re still close enough to downtown and accessible by public transit. The art community has been making a major shift westward since I moved to the Junction 15 years ago.”
With this new home, there is room for expansion in the future, he added. There are plans for a phase two, scheduled to open in 2020, that will see a new, custom building approximately 75,000 square ft. on the same site. It will allow the museum to host a larger audience, increase its exhibition and display spaces while being able to store developing collections. There will be research, workshop and meeting rooms as well.
“It would be an understatement to say that it will be simply the most significant tenancy we’ll have,” Romano said. “It adds dimension that goes beyond what a normal commercial business would bring.”
MOCCA is moving into an already up-and-coming arts neighbourhood, Romano said.
“In less than a kilometre from the site, there are dozens of galleries, workshops and artists,” he said. “MOCCA is coming in on a trend that’s already started. They’re going to solidify the neighbourhood as an arts destination.”
The Sterling Road site is much larger than MOCCA’s existing Queen Street West location.
“Our former site was quite modest. We couldn’t develop educational opportunities. We’ll be able to have exciting and innovative educational programs,” Liss said. “We want to engage audiences throughout the city. We’ll have the space and the staff.”
Predicting that it will be one of the most “exciting cultural destinations in Toronto,” Liss said the new museum is something that the city, the country and the art community deserves.
