After all the sacrifi ces and ded-ication with which Canada’s war veterans served country and countrymen, it is veter-ans who now need help from Canadians.

Royal Canadian Legion Branch 286 in north Etobicoke is in desperate need of dona-tions to fund a new roof. Recent torrential downpours resulted in the cancellation of social functions booked and rented for as many as 400 people i n t h e building’s two halls, which had fl ooded.

Rental income is crucial to the sur-vival of the Irwin Road legion, offi cials said.

“We’re in desperate need of roof replacement,” said Brian Johnston, the legion’s public relations’ offi cer. “There is no way in the world we would be able to operate unless we use the rental facilities. Membership fees — we retain $18 of the $55 fee — don’t come close to covering the cost of running the building.

“Replacing the roof and

renting the facilities is vital to our survival.”

While many contractors quoted $70,000 to $80,000 to replace the fl at roof, one contractor is willing to do the job for $25,000, Johnston reported.

That contractor urged that the roof be replaced by the end of summer.

Legion offi cials and legion-naires have launched a Raise the Roof campaign to solicit community donations.

CYNTHIA REASON creason@insidetoronto.com

With an enthusiastic fist pump – and an ‘Oyeh!’ for good measure – the

Said Hasan kids ran up the steps to their brand new Habitat for Humanity home in Etobicoke last Thursday and called dibs on their favourite rooms.

“This is unbelievable. This is the first time I’ve seen it complete...I wanted to keep it a surprise and I’m just amazed,” said 11-year-old Malika, pointing to the big, bright bay window in the front bedroom she claimed as her own. “You do not know what this means to my family. It means a brand new start.”

The Said Hasan family – includ-ing Malika’s dad Ghafoor, mom Vera, older sister Afsona, 20, and little brother Zainulla, 6 – are just one of six low-income families who will be moving into Habitat for Humanity Toronto’s newest development on Acme Crescent (near Kipling Avenue and Dixon Road) this summer.

“The groundbreaking here at Acme was on Sept. 10, and since then we’ve come to build six won-derful homes, which six wonderful families will be moving into over the next month or so,” Natasha Ward, Habitat for Humanity’s event co-ordinator, said at the key exchange ceremony. “We are so grateful to the hundreds of volun-teers who have made this day pos-sible by building the homes.”

Volunteers aren’t the only ones who get in on the grunt work, though.

In return for their no-profit, interest-free mortgage, Habitat for Humanity partner families like the Said Hasans put in more than 500 hours of “sweat equity” construc-tion work on their homes and the homes of others in order to make their dream of home ownership a reality.

For Vera, the end result was well worth both the work and the wait.

“For our family, this day means

so much; it’s a day which will be remarkable for the rest of our lives. This day, July 19, 2012, will be a day of our new life begin-ning,” she said. “We have been waiting for this day more than two years.”

Currently, the Said Hasan family lives in a cramped apart-ment in East York. Their upcoming move on Aug. 1 will mean a whole new neighbourhood, more space

to move around, and individual rooms for everyone.

Vera’s favourite room in the new house, she said, is the spacious kitchen – complete with brand new, shiny white appliances. Zainulla is looking forward to running around in the backyard, while Malika is anxious to have her friends over to hang out in her bright new room.

All of it was made possible by

their home’s sponsor, Right at Home Realty.

“On behalf of our 2,200 sales people, six offices, and our admin staff, the contributions that went into this house were made by not only the company, but all of our agents who have had the opportunity to sponsor this home by contributing a certain amount per transaction,” said Howard Drukarsh, the company’s co-founder and vice president. “Right At Home has been at this, I think, for five years and we’re delighted to see that there is actually some-thing concrete that now we can say we were a part of.”

Drukarsh was just one of a crowd of people on hand at Thursday’s key exchange cer-emony to welcome the Said Hasan family to Etobicoke.

Rev. Paul Kang of nearby St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church (situated at Royal York and Dixon roads) was also in attendance, taking the time out to bless the Said Hasan family’s new home, and extol the virtues of their new community.

“What makes a community special to me, what I think gives a community its identity, is the people,” he said. “The more I get to know the people that make up this community, the more I see something special – people from different backgrounds, people of different ages, different eth-nicities, different incomes levels and different faith traditions coming together and starting to work together in the spirit of co-operation to build a community of compassion.”

‘Community of compassion’ nears completionSix families to move into new Habitat for Humanity development later this summer

Q&A:

1. What are you most looking for-ward to at the Games?I am looking forward to seeing my fellow teammates from around the world, and to have the chance to win another Olympic medal for Canada.

2. What’s your training strategy? I have been training, what I believe

will be, the most difficult routines of the competition, and working on becoming as consistent as pos-sible.

3. Reflections on how far you’ve come? In July of 2010 I broke my leg very badly and needed a six-month recov-ery. I was recovered by January of 2011 but I felt like I was starting at zero all over again. In the last year-and-a-half I have done everything possible to get back to the top,

and I feel confident that I will be competitive with the world’s best in August.

4. What would you like to say to the folks back home?I want the folks back home to know that Canada has more Olympic trampoline medals than any other country, and we’re aiming to keep that record.

5. Trivia: Won a silver medal at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. I hold world records for the most difficult routines completed in competition (18.8) and in training (20.6). I was Michael Cera’s stunt double in the movie “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World”. And I am a philosophy and religion major at the University of Toronto.

Olympic opening ceremonies are a capital idea

Your VIEW

Like many issues in Toronto, cycling and where it takes place has become one pitting the political left and right against each other. They are bat-

tling it out on the floor of council, and sadly also on the streets of our city.

As North York Councillor Denzil Minnan-Wong told Toronto Community News in our special feature on cycling in the city on pages 10 and 11 of today’s news-paper, the main bone of contention is lack of space on Toronto’s streets.

“Because there’s a limited amount of geography, pedestrians, cyclists and motor-ists are all competing for the same space,” he explained.

And nobody seems willing to give up any ground.

There are two kinds of cyclists in Toronto, those who ride to commute and those who ride for recreation. What we don’t want to see is the political battles ending up costing either groups of riders.

We need good and safe cycling routes along our streets for those who depend on their bikes to move around. We also need recreational runs that all can enjoy at a relaxed pace. And we don’t need one at the expense of the other.

As part of our feature today, we decided to take a look at nine bike rides that recreational riders across Toronto could enjoy. All these rides are on bike paths, separate from city roads and free of cars for almost their entire routes.

These are runs that both experienced riders and those who are new to cycling can enjoy by themselves or with their families, confident that they won’t have to negotiate through busy traffic or dangerous inter-sections. Hopefully readers will try one of these rides for themselves. There are some great choices and they highlight much of Toronto’s natural, and far too often hidden, beauty.

Valleys make up so much of our city’s landscape, and planners have not been shy about running cycling (and pedestrian) paths along them. There are some beautiful runs through Taylor Creek, along the Don River and Highland Creek that have riders thinking they are miles away from Canada’s largest city. The featured rides also focus on the close con-nection between the city and Lake Ontario. While it is not yet possible to ride along the lake from one end of Toronto to the other only on a bike path, large sec-tions are accessible.

There are no shortages of great, safe rides in the city and we encourage our readers to try one of the runs we’ve highlighted today.

Balance needs of all cyclists

our VIEW

Recreational and commuter cyclists must be considered

To the editor:It’s disheartening to learn

funding for many of the youth programs and infrastructure projects in Toronto’s priority neighbourhoods is running out.

These initiatives provide young people with opportu-nities to gain valuable skills they can use to pursue job training or a post-secondary education, which will assist them in succeeding in the future.

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 and recent graduates entering the labour market.

This literature shows the situation is considerably 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 communi-ties have lower employment and participation rates and are compensated less for their labour through no fault of their own.

By minimizing labour market inequities, we as a society, can reduce poverty and its associated effects.

Are you as psyched as I am for the opening ceremonies of the

2012 Summer Olympics tomorrow night in jolly old London? What can I say? They always reel me in like a prized tuna.

The best part of the festivities for my money is when the athletes enter the stadium.

As soon as I hear each country introduced my mind goes into overdrive, just like it used to when I was in public school.

Back then, whenever I heard a country name I would blurt out the capital city faster than Jesse James on steroids. I swear I knew every capital when I was a kid. (For the record, I swear I didn’t swear as a kid.)

My favourite capital was Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras. It was always my numero uno because it was fun to say. I still get a kick out of saying it.

I also knew that the capital of Paraguay was Asuncion and the capital of Uruguay was Montevideo and I never confused them.

Today? The capital swag-ger is gone. With good reason. There are 204 teams in these Summer Olympics. How can I be expected to

know 204 capitals when I didn’t know there were that many countries?

There aren’t, as it turns out. There are actually only 196 independent countries. Three of them are newer and don’t have Olympic national bodies yet, so only 193 will be represented in London. The balance of the teams is made of 11 territories. Needless to say, considering I didn’t know there would be 11 territories competing in London I couldn’t possibly know their capitals, either.

There’s another reason remembering capitals isn’t as easy as it once was is because many capitals themselves are not what they used to be.

There have been several capital city name changes over the years. I couldn’t tell you what they all are, I haven’t kept up. Still, I’ll give it my best shot Friday.

Another area I’ll be focus-ing on is flag identification.

I used to be pretty good at that, too. But, like capitals, many flags have changed.

And, as usual, I’ll be testing my knowledge on national anthems. I like to see if I can hum the appro-priate national anthem when each contingent of athletes walks in, but I seem to know fewer and fewer anthems these days, also.

Trying to predict who the flag bearers are for each country is always a good time, as is trying to pick out countries just by looking at the teams’ outfits.

Lastly, I always try to see if I can come up with an official sponsor from each country – such as the Official Burrito of Mexico, the Official Souvlaki of Greece, the Official Pasta of Italy, and so on.

One official sponsor I never have to guess at is ours. That’s because, unlike capitals, anthems and flags, it never changes over the years – the Official Excuse: Lack of government fund-ing.

A member of the Clean Train Coalition has accused

Metrolinx of holding up work on plans to electrify a future rail service providing express trips from Union Station to Pearson International

Airport.The coal i t ion’s Rick

Ciccarelli said the provin-cial transit planning agency is taking far too long to com-

plete its study on electrifi-cation of the future air rail link, which will significantly increase the number of GO diesel trains traveling along

the Georgetown South rail corridor in the city’s west end by the start of the Pan American Games.

As a part of the study which commenced in 2010, Metrolinx has hired an inter-national engineering com-pany, Parsons Brinckerhoff,

which specializes in electrification projects, to work on preliminary technical designs for the link.

The work will also be included in an environ-mental assessment (EA) required by the prov-ince.

Metrolinx hopes to complete the study and EA by 2014, with conversion to electric expecting to take a fur-ther three years – if the $444-million project receives funding from the provincial govern-ment.

To Ciccarelli and the majority of the 70 or so residents who attended a public meeting recently on the project, that timeline is unacceptable.

“It shouldn’t take four years for a study,” said Ciccarelli, who wants the line to be fully electrified when it opens.

“They’ve known the main points about elec-trification and then sat for a year repeating the same stuff.”

When the link opens in 2015, the number of trains running on diesel along the corridor will swell from 24 to 185 weekly, mainly due to 140 shuttles running an express service that will take riders from Union Station to the airport in 15 minutes.

air quality concerns

T h a t w o r r i e s Ciccarelli who says he’s skeptical about Metrolinx’s conten-tion air quality along the corridor won’t be drastically worsened due to the increase in traffic because the trains use the cleanest diesel fuel available.

“They’re not taking into account people whose bedroom win-dows are less than 25 yards away from cor-ridor,” he said.

“There’s no such thing as clean diesel

any more than clean ciga-rettes.”

Recently, the executive leading the Metrolinx elec-trification study said she sympathized with residents who are frustrated with the project’s progress.

conversion complicated

But Karen Pitre said con-version is a complicated process made more complex due to a lack of history in this country for such large-scale capital projects.

“Absolutely we’re set-ting a precedent and if we don’t do this one right you can rest assured we’re not going to be able to go any further,” said Pitre, executive director of electrification for Metrolinx.

She said there are no case studies her team has found where an entire rail service was converted from diesel to electric.

Further adding to the chal-lenge, according to Pitre, is the presence of freight trains also using the mixed grade corridor.

“It would be great if we had dedicated corridor that was in a green field, but this is a much different scenario,” she said.

Pitre said Metrolinx was working hard to complete the preliminary designs so it could move onto the next phase of the project as quickly as possible.

“There’s reasons why things take time. It’s not because of bureaucracy or anyone dragging their heels but because we’re trying to work through the details that have to go into (electrifica-tion).”

electrification possible

Pitre said she was confi-dent the province remains open to eventually approving electrification of the link.

“The fact we’re trying to understand what’s involved and the costs for conversion is a pretty good indication that there’s a direction they’re going in,” she said.

Metrolinx’s board of directors has already rec-ommended electrifying both the Georgetown as well as Lakeshore rail corridors.

Ontario minister of trans-portation Bob Chiarelli said a final decision on conversion won’t take place until after the air rail link opens.

“That train has left the station,” said Chiarelli at a recent press conference.

Motorists, pedestrians, cyclists all competing for limited space

DAVID NICKLE dnickle@insidetoronto.com

When Rob Ford was elected Mayor of Toronto in 2010, one

might be forgiven for thinking that bicyclists’ time had passed.

As a councillor, Ford famously compared cycling in traffi c to “swimming with the sharks,” adding, “Roads are built for buses cars and trucks, not for people on bikes. My heart bleeds for them

when someone gets killed, but it’s their own fault at the end of the day.”

At council’s inaugural meet-ing, the mayor’s chosen keynote speaker Don Cherry arrived in a hot pink suit, which he said he wore for “all the pinkos out there that ride bicycles and every-thing.”

The new administration signalled early that it would take a very different route than the previous crew under David Miller, which favoured separated bike lanes on roads. In short order, city council had removed bike lanes on Pharmacy and Birchmount avenues in Scarborough at the request of the local councillor, and another, higher-profi le bike lane on Jarvis Street despite the protests of the

local councillor there.The shift was a result of more

than the will of a mayor more comfortable on four wheels than two. Since before amalgamation, cars and bicycles have had an uneasy relationship on Toronto streets.

Don Valley East Councillor Denzil Minnan-Wong, who chairs the city’s works commit-tee, said the confl ict is only natu-ral, “because there’s a limited amount of geography — pedes-trians, cyclists and motorists are all competing for the same space.”

As works chair, Minnan-Wong has carriage of the Ford admin-istration’s cycling plan, which in broad strokes is about separating motorists from cyclists wherever possible.

Ford ran on creating a Bikeway Network — which includes 100 kilometres of off-road rec-reational bike paths. Some of those paths running along Hydro corridors were approved by the previous administration.

Minnan-Wong has pressed the issue further, and the city embarked on a plan to make some separated bike lanes in the downtown — initially on Wellesley and Sherbourne streets, and eventually along Richmond and Adelaide streets in the core.

“Everybody has a different opinion,” said Minnan-Wong. “But I think it makes for a safer arrangement for cyclists, and I think the majority of cyclists prefer it.”

Scarborough Centre

Councillor Glenn De Baeremaeker chaired the works committee during Miller’s term, and has made a point of making a 20-kilometre commute from his home in Scarborough to city hall by bicycle.

He said the separated lanes are a good idea — but maintains that the mayor’s plan focussing on off-road cycling doesn’t help the growing number of utilitarian cyclists in the city.

“Separated bike lanes are good, and every cyclist and driver should welcome them,” he said.

“Those lanes are complicated things to do, I encourage the bike community and Denzil Minnan-Wong. But one kilometre of sepa-rated bike lane doesn’t make up for cancelling 100 kilometres of bike lanes on roads.”

9 RIDES

Across Toronto

1 ETOBICOKE: From the Humber River Pedestrian Bridge, cyclists have two options: head up the river path

to the northern reaches of Etobicoke, or west along Etobicoke’s picturesque Lake Ontario waterfront.

The latter, two-kilometre option is the more scenic, and has the added bonus of no traffic – unless, of course, you consider the steady stream of cyclists, in-line skaters, dog walkers, and family picnickers out for some fresh air and exercise.

For the hardcore cyclists, the waterfront trail boasts separate, paved lanes for bikes, while for those out for a more leisurely ride, there are plenty of stops along the path – take in some history at the Palace Pier

monument, rest on the benches at Home Garden, hand-build an inukshuk along the shoreline, admire the monarchs at the Humber Bay Butterfly Habitat or wander the paths through Humber Bay Park.

2 YORK: While plans are in the works to eventually close what is an approxi-mately one-kilometre gap between

Crawford-Jones Memorial Park (near Weston Road and Hwy. 401) and Cruickshank Park in Weston, local riders in York can still enjoy a pleasant ride.

However, the gap prevents Rexdale and west North York residents from being able to use what is otherwise an essentially

uninterrupted off-road path running from Steeles Avenue to downtown Toronto via the Humber and Martin Goodman Trails.

The route from Cruickshank Park to Lake Ontario, save for a small stretch through local, residential streets near the Humber Marshes, is relatively unimpeded and takes, on average, an hour to complete one way.

3 BLOOR WEST: For cyclists living in the downtown west end, who not only use their bikes for pleasure, but

also for every day transportation, the most pleasant ride is one free from cars.

And that is what makes the West Toronto Railpath a popular and pleasant shortcut between Parkdale and the Junction. The two-kilometre long trail

begins at Cariboo Avenue, just north of the Dupont and Dundas intersection, and runs southeast to Dundas Street West at Sterling Road with various access points.

Built on abandoned railway beds, the West Toronto Railpath was completed in 2009. It is an asphalt path lined with greenery, indigenous plantings and brick buildings.

4 PARKDALE: For cyclists looking to head north from Parkdale to the Junction, or just looking for a pleas-

ant car-free ride, the West Toronto Railpath offers a two-kilometre trail between Sterling Avenue at Dundas Street West and Cariboo Avenue, north of Dupont Street.

But for many bike enthusiasts, the dream is to see this tree-lined trail, winner

of an Urban Design Award of Excellence, extended south along the GO train tracks to south of Queen Street West toward downtown Toronto.

If completed, the Railpath would give more than 250,000 Toronto residents living in the west end and travelling downtown a sustainable transportation link with the downtown core.

feedback. “That’s true for

Scarborough, where we’ve removed bike lanes this year; Etobicoke where there doesn’t seem to be a good movement toward ensuring when we’re doing infra-structure upgrades, we’re putting in suffi cient room for cyclists on the roads. Downtown, again, we’re also removing bike lanes.”

Bike lanes and paths exist in Etobicoke, but like elsewhere in the city, the lanes don’t form a con-tiguous network.

Cyclists ride here, hop on and off the path there. In fact, Royal York Road will become the sole con-

tinuous bike path from Steeles Avenue West in north Etobicoke south down to the lake — and only after proposed bike lanes are installed.

Under the Toronto Bike Plan, proposed bike lanes and signed routes will create more of a bike lane network in Etobicoke.

Removing bike lanes is counterintuitive, argues

the committee, as does Toronto Public Health, Layton said.

“By having bike lanes, you’re actually making it safer and more inviting for people to cycle,” he said, noting his partner became a commuter cyclist, biking to and from work down-town a year ago. “Now that she bikes in an area with bike lanes, she bikes

with confi dence every day. Whereas, when we started out, that wasn’t the case.”

The politician credits bike lane infra-structure invest-ments over years along several streets in his ward, including College Street, with creat-ing a safe environ-ment for cyclists.

“Those streets make it very com-fortable to cycle. It’s not like you’re taking your life in your hands with cars whizzing by. You’ve got a buffer. Mind you, it’s only a painted line. But it gives cyclists the confi dence

and a feeling of safety that makes it easier for them to get on their bikes.”

Meanwhile, Toronto has removed bike lanes — on Birchmount Road and on Pharmacy Avenue — “taking out a key piece to providing that infrastructure to people in north Scarborough,” Layton said.

Bike lanes are a key part of the

future if the city is ever to urge people to get out of their cars, Layton said.

“If you want to get people out of cars, you have to give

them one of three things: better public transit, better cycling infrastructure or a better pedestrian domain,” he said.

“What you should be doing is looking for where you can put bike lanes in now. Then, when you’re redesigning roads and intersections, accommodate space into those plans so that it’s not a large additional cost. To take out Jarvis (bike lanes), it’s going to cost $150,000. We’re actually spending money removing them in this past year’s budget.

“Once (the bike lanes) are in, it seems pointless and wasteful to take them out, not to mention, it’s putting people’s lives at risk.”

East York

Beach

Scarborough

9 SCARBOROUGH: The ride from Greenvale Park, just north of Kingston Road across from the

Guildwood GO station, through the Highland Creek Valley and along the shores of Lake Ontario to the Port Union Village Common Park, is a run of approxi-mately 12 kilometres which takes in a wide variety of features and parkland through southeast Scarborough.

The run starts with a steep hill and a warning for cyclists to dismount at the Greenvale Park entrance, but levels off nicely. It is a bit smelly, due to sewers run-ning underground near the Lawrence bridge, along the creek into Morningside Park. After that it rolls through the University of Toronto Scarborough campus.

Cyclists cross under Old Kingston Road and continue along beside the creek all the way to Lake Ontario.

There’s lots of opportunity to see wild-life on this ride, a pair of deer were spotted by the Morningside bridge, and it’s a fun run for kids with mostly level riding and lots of sites to see.

Bike lanes, paths in Etobicoke don’t connect well

7 EAST YORK: The bike path winding through Taylor Creek Park has long been a favourite family biking route.

After a mid-July rainstorm this year, the shady route seemed more of an Iron Man family biking route.

Running 3.5 kilometres from Victoria Park Avenue to Don Mills Road and the Don Valley Parkway, the route was slick

with mud, and several bridges have now been washed out. Just past Lumsden Avenue, a downed tree called for a cyclist ‘portage’ through the branches.

Two of the wooden bridges are washed out, and two others have the safety railing snapped off. It’s a reminder that even in well-groomed Toronto parks, nature still reigns supreme.

8 BEACH: On most weekends, taking a bike to the Beach is an exercise in frustration: just the same as is taking

a picnic, a volleyball, a pair of roller blades or an automobile is.

Everyone else has the same idea. On weekdays, it’s a different story; the run east from Leslie Street will take you a good five kilometres, past the new TTC vehicle stor-age facility, a skateboard park, and the mil-lennium-project Woodbine Park into the

Beach proper. It’s good manners to stay off the

Boardwalk – there are still a few visitors taking a stroll – but it’s a nice, safe ride through Woodbine Beach, Kew Gardens and Beaches Park. The bike route officially ends around Balsam Avenue; but a few hundred metres further east, and you’ll end up at the stunning R.C. Harris Water Filtration Plant.

5 NORTH YORK: The five-kilometre ride between Edwards Gardens and Taylor Creek Park is an easy run—for the

most part. However, even experienced cyclists will

want to get off their bikes and walk the wooden foot-bridge that curves over the CNR tracks cutting through the valley.

Otherwise, it’s a gentle ride, uphill from Don Mills, through valley lands that snake behind the Ontario Science Centre, past Sunnybrook Park, and deep north through the lush, thick woods lining Wilket Creek.

Once you arrive, you’ll have to dismount as bicycles are prohibited in the gardens. But there are bike rings and benches.

6 CITY CENTRE: There’s a long and rewarding ride ahead for cyclists who want to brave the Lower Don River

trail, that stretches eight kilometres from Don Mills Road and the Don Valley Parkway south along the Don to Lakeshore Boulevard.

At the best of times, it’s a good idea to bring water. But the ride is rich with sights

and landmarks, and worth the trip. The Prince Edward Viaduct is at its most impressive seen from the saddle of a bicycle below, and urban wildlife abounds. Heading towards the new crossing at Pottery Road, a lone chipmunk tempts fate crossing the path. Further south, where the trail dips underneath Eastern Avenue, a flock of geese stand guard.

Difficult times combined with dwindling numbers of legionnaires finds the tables turned and legions reaching out to community benefac-tors, said Bill MacAulay, who served in Germany, Cyprus and Holland and was a member of a British Legion before he joined Branch 286 some 44 years ago.

“At one time, there was a nucleus of veterans, 1,500 members at this legion. There was esprit de corps. In a time of need, we’d circle the wagons and do whatever was needed. Because of changing times, that no longer happens. We need to reach out to govern-ments, benevolent people in the community.”

To that end, a Raise Our Roof fundraiser will take place on Sunday, Aug. 12 at the legion from 1 to 5 p.m. with entertainment provided at no charge by Gary Gale and

Friends. Doors open at noon. Sandwiches and sweets will be served. Tickets are $10 in advance or $12 at the door. Call the branch at 416-741-5660 or Pierrette Forgie at 416-745-0571 to reserve a ticket.

Canadian veterans should not be remembered only once a year during the Warriors’ Day Parade, this year held on Saturday, Aug. 18 at the Canadian National Exhibition, agree Johnston, Rimmer and MacAulay.

MacAulay charged all levels

of government in Canada need to do more to support legions.

“Governments are negat-ing their responsibility to the people who made this country what it is today. (Recognition) shouldn’t just be once a year every Warriors’ Day.”

Johnston agreed: “You shouldn’t shake the hand of a legionnaire on just one day. They didn’t take just one day to change things.”

The legion gained its charter in 1940.

The new Ford C-MAX Energi is ex-pected to achieve more than 20 miles of electric-only range and a 550-mile overall range.

With a maximum electric-only speed projected to top that of Prius plug-in, C-MAX Energi drivers might be able to reach wherever they’re going a little faster, too.

Topping it off, C-MAX Ener-gi delivers fuel economy that is the equivalent of (US) 95 mpg equivalent (MPGe) combined city/highway.

C-MAX Energi is part of Ford’s first dedicated line of hybrid vehicles in

North America and will soon be avail-able for order at Ford’s certified electric-vehicle dealerships.

C-MAX Energi operates just like a traditional hybrid with two key differ-ences – owners must plug in the ve-hicle using its charge port and C-MAX Energi has a larger battery pack.

Already available for order is C-MAX Hybrid – expected to be North America’s most affordable hybrid util-ity vehicle.

C-MAX Hybrid and C-MAX Energi figure prominently in Ford’s rollout of five electrified vehicles this year.

Subaru is proud to be different. For one, all of its models come

standard with Subaru’s acclaimed symmetrical all-wheel drive sys-tem. And, being a relatively small automaker, Subaru is able to do a lot with a little, spinning several models off the same platform.

The 2013 Subaru Outback and Legacy models are both very suc-cessful vehicles with combined sales of about 10,000 units a year (about 70 per cent Outback) in Canada last year.

The mid-size Legacy sedan and the Outback crossover SUV that combines car-like handling and SUV versatility have under-gone extensive changes for 2013 – the first major facelifts for them since the last full model change in 2010.

Chief among the updates is a more powerful and more fuel-efficient power plant – a 2.5-litre DOHC boxer four-cylinder engine that replaces a SOHC 2.5-litre box-er four-cylinder.

Power jumps to 173 hp from 170 and torque rises to 174 lb/ft from 170. Combined with a new CVT transmission, the Outback now accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 9.6 seconds and the Legacy in 9.3 seconds compared with 10.2 and 9.5 seconds respectively in the outgoing models.

Meanwhile, fuel economy has been improved eight per cent across the board, with the Outback now rated at 8.6/6.5L/100 km city/hwy and the Legacy 8.4/6.0L.100 km city/hwy with the CVT.

The Legacy is also offered with a six-speed manual transmission on the Base and Touring trims, while the top-level Limited gets a five-speed automatic, paired with either the 2.5-litre four banger or a 256 hp 3.6-litre boxer six- cylinder engine.

On the styling front, the Legacy

has a stronger, sharper look while the Outback has a more aggres-sive appearance. All this results from new headlight, grille and front bumper re-dos. Inside, both models have a higher quality feel with new seat fabric and wood trim elements available.

Drivability of both vehicles has also been improved through in-creased body stiffness and chassis improvements, resulting in re-duced body roll, better handling and ride quality. In addition, the Outback has 220 mm of ground clearance if you have a need to do any off-road driving or travel rough cottage trails.

During a brief ride-and-drive, we had an opportunity to take a 2.5i Outback as well as a 3.6R Out-back out for short jaunts.

The 3.6R was a Limited trim level with the EyeSight option and it was noticeably quieter and pep-pier than the four-cylinder model with the continuously variable transmission, which exhibited the familiar whine and high rev level that is common with CVTs.

Subaru says floor vibration tests show the ride quality of the new Outback is now on par with the Legacy sedan. The 2013 Outback also gets a Five Star crash test rat-ing from the National Highway Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA) in the U.S.

Subaru is offering its new Eye-Sight driver assistance option only on Limited trim models of the Legacy and Outback for 2013. It will be rolled out in other models in the future.

Subaru says the system assists the driver in making decisions for more safe and comfortable driv-ing and to reduce driver fatigue.

The EyeSight feature has shown to have a high ≥take rate≤ in Ja-pan since its introduction there in 2010 as it now represents more

than 90 per cent of total sales in recent months.

The system uses twin stereo cameras mounted on either side of the rearview mirror to provide a suite of driver assist functions in-cluding: pre-collision braking; pre-collision brake assist; pre-collision throttle management; adaptive cruise control; lane departure warning; lane sway warning; and lead vehicle start alert.

The characteristics of the cam-era views are similar to the human eye in that they recognize objects, while other similar vehicle sys-tems that use radar simply detect them without differentiating be-tween vehicles and pedestrians, for example.

The 2013 Outback is on sale now, the Legacy in August.

MODEL FB2E2CEX

The 2013 Q5 is the latest salvo in Audi’s stated strategic plan to be-come the world’s leading luxury vehicle maker by 2020.

In Canada we will get two gaso-line versions a hybrid – and a die-sel is finally coming.

The Q5 marks the world pre-miere of Audi’s latest 2.0-litre four-cylinder TFSI engine featuring variable valve control, direct and “indirect” fuel injection system and integration of the exhaust mani-fold into the cylinder head.

Another innovation is the “ther-mal management” system that heats up engine oil faster and also regulates coolant temperature be-tween 85-107 Celsius for optimum thermodynamic efficiency.

In the Q5, the 2.0-litre produces 225 hp and 258 lb/ft of torque and fuel consumption of 7.6L/100 km on the European combined cycle test. With a top speed of 222 km/h, it goes from 0-100 km/h in 7.1 sec-onds. The supercharged 3.0-litre TFSI engine is also new to the Q5, and replaces the naturally aspi-rated 3.2-litre FSI. It is rated at 272 hp and 295 lb/ft of torque giving it a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 5.9-seconds, a top speed of 234 km/h and combined Euro fuel rat-ing of 8.5L/100 km/h.

In Canada a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is standard for the 3.0 TFSI quattro. Standard transmission on the 2.0-litre is an eight-speed automatic.

The hybrid starts with the 2.0-litre in this case developing 211 hp plus a 54 hp electric mo-tor for combined power of 245 hp and 354 lb/ft of torque. With a 0-100 km/h time of 7.1 seconds, combined fuel consumption is rated at 6.9L/100 km/h. It can trav-el up to 3.0 km on electric power alone with a 100 km/h all-electric top speed.

Standard on all versions is stop/

start which Audi estimates saves 0.3L/100 km.

For 2013, all transmissions have wide gear spreads. The idea is long gear ratios on the upper gears help reduce fuel consumption, while the short gear ratios of the lower gears optimize in-gear response.

Audi’s quattro permanent all-wheel drive system is standard

New is an electro-mechanical power steering system that gives the driver a better feel for the road with direct gearing but adjust-ing the level of power assist. It is set up so no energy is used when the steering is in the straight- ahead position.

Optionally available is the Audi drive select system that allows the driver to change the operat-ing characteristics of the throttle pedal, the shift points of the au-tomatic transmission, the degree of power steering assistance and the operation of the automatic air conditioning system via four modes plus a fifth “Individual” the driver can tune to his/her own driving style.

Don’t let the 2.0-litre’s size fool you. Despite its weight, the 2.0-litre is quick off the mark because the engine reaches maximum torque as low as 1,500 rpm and that pow-er is on tap all the way to the top.

The interior is clean with all controls easy to reach and un-derstand and not a stitch out of place or an off kilter shut line to be seen. The controls have real chrome surrounds and the centre console is finished in a high-gloss black. There is a choice of three interior colours.

It may be a luxury CUV but the Q5 can rough it if required with a maximum climbing angle of 31 degrees. The vehicle’s approach and departure angles are each 25 degrees while its ramp angle is 17 degrees. Ground clearance is 20

cm and stream-fording depth is 50 cm.

In terms of cargo, the angles of the 60:40 split rear seat can be ad-justed or folded with the remote seatback release. It also travels back and forth 100 mm for easier access or stowage. That increased cargo volume from 540 litres be-hind the seat to 1,560 litres folded.

Hurrah for Audi for making its MMI (Multi Media Information) system the simplest to use yet with only four buttons instead of multi directional-multi angle click/tilt wheels like others.

The way Audi keeps upgrading, enhancing and re-thinking its cars and trucks is a case study on how to run a car company.

Take a spin in the new Q5 when it gets here and you’ll see why Audi keeps gaining conquest buy-ers and market share.

– Jim RobinsonMetroland Media
