Gunplay kills one in park; shots injure two by school
Violence-ridden Malvern had been trying to shed reputation when
incident occurred
By Tim LAI,
Monday,
August 15, 2005, Page A8
More innocent bystanders became victims on the weekend as gunplay
that has plagued the city left one man dead and two teens injured.
Within an hour Saturday night, guns were at the centre of two
separate incidents at opposite ends of the city.
Since the last week of July, eight people have been shot to death
and 25 have been injured in shootings, including a four-year-old
boy.
In the west end, police found a man in Raymore Park, near Scarlett
Road and Lawrence Avenue West, with a gunshot in the neck.
He was identified as 28-year-old Syed
SHAH of Toronto. His was
the city's 43rd homicide of the year and the 33rd death by a
gun.
Police said he was an innocent person playing cricket in the
park with a group of people when the guns came out.
Two men were seen running out of the park after the shooting.
Police are seeking two men who are described as black and about
six feet tall.
About 35 minutes later in the city's east end, two boys aged
14 and 16 were shot in the legs. The incident occurred outside
Grey Owl Junior Public School, near Neilson Road and Sheppard
Avenue East, in the heart of Malvern.
Residents had been trying to improve the notorious gang- and
violence-ridden community, and there had been some positive developments.
"This is really disappointing to tell you the straight truth,"
said a man who knows the teenaged boys, but who asked not to
be identified. He works with the Malvern Youth Community Employment
Program. He said the two boys were probably at the wrong place
at the wrong time.
"[Malvern is] still in the process of turning around until this
incident happened here," he said.
Last May, a large operation to dismantle gangs, called Project
Impact, resulted in dozens of arrests. The same thing occurred
this spring during Project Pathfinder. There has not been a murder
in the area in more than a year and the number of gun incidents
is significantly lower, according to police.
However, the community worker said many problems remain for area
residents, especially the youth.
"The kids in [the] area have nothing to do except walk around
in the night. I guarantee if that kid had a job, he would be
in his bed sleeping."
The father of the 16-year-old said his son was doing well and
resting at home, but would need crutches to walk. The bullet
went through his knee.
Upset and tired, with bloodshot eyes, the father did not want
to give more details about his son's condition or his family's
thoughts on the Malvern community and the rash of shootings plaguing
the city.
Police said there is nothing to indicate the incident was related
to gangs and that they had no information on suspects.
Susan HAYES, 55, who lives across the street from the scene of
the shooting, called police after hearing two gunshots. She said
she saw at least one person running away, but because it was
dark and bushes divide her home from the road, she could not
give a description.
Ms. HAYES, a 25-year resident of the neighbourhood, said the
multiethnic community has seen more of a police presence in recent
years.
"They'll go through here for no reason, like they'll drive to
look out during broad daylight," she said, gesturing at the circular
townhouse complex.
While Malvern has been considered by some to be a success story
in decreasing gang activity and violence -- the community
worker said there is still work to be done in order for it to
be free from shootings.
"This is a big mess-up; it shouldn't have happened," she said.

Robert
T.
(October 31, 1917-March 23, 2005)
Of Orillia, died in Tucson, Arizona from complications of living
life to the fullest. Bob is survived by his wife Enid of 62 years
five daughters: Emme (Gord)
BURNETT of Port Perry, Adrienne (Bob)
DAVIES and Pixie (Darin)

HEWITT of Toronto. Bob was predeceased
by his daughter Diane
HEWITT of Toronto. Bob is also survived
by 18 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren. Bob will be remembered
by the education community in St. Catharines and the province
of Ontario as a tremendous innovator, an educational entrepreneur.
There are two major innovations that have had a great effect
on Ontario high school programs since 1970. First and foremost,
when he was Principal, Merritton High School was one of two schools
in Ontario to pilot the current credit system. Secondly, as the
founding Principal of Governor Simcoe Secondary School, Bob pioneered
the semester system as one of two Ontario schools to pilot the
program. Bob also felt that students would learn better in unphased
or open courses. He was a strong advocate for special needs students,
gifted education and the French immersion program. When he retired
in 1978, Bob moved to Orillia where he enjoyed gardening at his
home, golfing with his Friends at Couchiching, playing cards
and pool at the Legion and all the social stuff at the Golden
K where he is a past president and regional governor. Bob and
Enid loved to travel and have enjoyed winter golf in Tucson for
the past 12 years. Bob
HAYES was a well respected and beloved
member of the community. He lived life right to the end. He was
coherent and intelligent with visitors in his home up to an hour
before he died. There will be a memorial service in Orillia later
on in April. We shall miss you Dad.

He made his mark on city and nation
By WARREN
Gerard,
Special To
The Star
Beland HONDERICH rose from plain beginnings to become one of
the most influential Canadians of his day, using his power as
publisher of Canada's largest newspaper to influence the agenda
in politics and business at every level.
At the same time he set new standards for informed, in-depth,
responsible reporting.
HONDERICH, publisher of the Toronto Star for 22 of his 52 years
at the paper, died in Vancouver at 86 yesterday following a stroke.
HONDERICH was a fiercely private man, almost reclusive, but that
didn't keep him from being an impatient perfectionist, a leader
whose principal ethic was work.
The Star was his life, his passion.
Among his many honours, and one he treasured, was his election
in 1986 to the News Hall of Fame by journalists across Canada
for leading "Canadian newspapers into a new direction, taking
readers backstage to explore and explain the current events that
shaped their lives."
HONDERICH left the publisher's office in 1988, going on to become
board chairman of the newspaper and its parent company, Torstar
Corp. He retired from that position in 1994, but maintained an
office across from the newsroom on the fifth floor at One Yonge
St. until 1999.
Beland Hugh
HONDERICH was born in Kitchener on November 25, 1918,
and grew up in the nearby village of Baden. He was proud of his
pioneer roots -- Mennonites from Germany who found religious
freedom in Waterloo County in the early 1800s.
"My father was a man who stood for religious freedom, and I am
proud to follow in his footsteps,"
HONDERICH once said.
His father, John
HONDERICH, was ostracized in the staunchly traditional
Mennonite community because he and young Beland went to hear
a speaker from another Amish sect. The shunning, as it was called,
meant that other Reform Mennonites were forbidden to sit down
to eat with them or to shake their hands.
Nor did his father quite fit in with his thrifty, hard-working
neighbours in other ways. A sometime beekeeper, homespun village
philosopher, printer and pamphleteer for liberal causes, he was
"not a very good provider" in a community where work was next
to godliness.
His mother, Rae, was the family's main breadwinner. She was the
local telephone operator, a job that included the use of a train
station in Baden which served as a home for the
HONDERICHs and
their six children.
HONDERICH recalled that the family never
went hungry, but there was little money for anything but food.
He gathered coal along the railway tracks to heat their home
and carried water in summer to gangs of workers repairing the
roads. In the mornings, he worked around the Canadian National
Railway station, sweeping and cleaning up for 40 cents a day.
Despite winning a regional debating championship with his sister
Ruth -- they defended the proposition that the Soviet way of
life was superior to the American way -- he struggled to pass
high school entrance examinations.
HONDERICH didn't do well in high school. And it didn't help that
he had to hitchhike 16 kilometres to and from school in Kitchener.
As a result, his attendance was spotty and his marks were poor.
He was demoted in his second year to a commercial course "where
at least I learned to type."
Discouraged, he dropped out of school and got a job as a farmhand
at the beginning of the Great Depression, much to his mother's
displeasure. "You can do better than that," he recalled her saying
on more than one occasion.
The farm job didn't last. His introduction to reporting came
about because his father was hard of hearing and took his son
to public meetings and political rallies to take notes. It taught
the young HONDERICH, who was later to battle deafness himself,
to write quickly and accurately.
He inherited a Kitchener-Waterloo Record paper route from one
of his brothers, which led him to become the paper's correspondent
for Baden at 10 cents a column inch. He created news by organizing
a softball team and covering its games for the paper.
When he was 17, fires on successive nights destroyed two barns
owned by a prominent Baden farmer. Arson was suspected and the
young HONDERICH's coverage so impressed his editors that they
offered him a tryout as a cub reporter in Kitchener at $15 a
week.
He showed up for work in a mismatched jacket and pants and with
his two front teeth missing from a tough hockey game the night
before. He didn't shine as a reporter.
The publisher, W.J.
MOTZ, concluded after a week that
HONDERICH
was in the wrong line of work and told city editor Art
LOW/LOWE/LOUGH to
fire him. But
LOW/LOWE/LOUGH saw something in the youngster and persuaded
MOTZ to give him a second chance.
LOW/LOWE/LOUGH worked
HONDERICH hard. He gave him an assignment each evening
to go along with his day job. Ed
HAYES, who worked at the Record
in those days, recalled in an interview that
HONDERICH (or "Bee"
as he was nicknamed) was determined to succeed.
"Each reporter was supposed to turn in a story every afternoon
at the end of his shift. Bee wasn't satisfied with that. He'd
turn in two, three or more.
"He was the darling of the city desk."
As time went by, he improved, becoming more and more confident.
He was also developing into a perfectionist. So much so, in fact,
that he'd bet an ice cream with an assistant city editor that
he would find nothing that needed to be changed in a
HONDERICH
story.
At first, he recalled, it cost him a lot of ice cream cones,
but later he rarely had to pay off.
In those early days at the Record,
HONDERICH knew he had a country
bumpkin image. So when he had saved enough money, he went to
a quality menswear store and asked the manager to show him how
to dress. He bought a dark pin-striped suit, complete with vest,
and that look became his uniform in life.
A fellow staffer at the Record recalled
HONDERICH borrowing a
bike from a delivery boy and speeding off to an assignment in
his pin-striped suit.
And co-workers described him as a loner who rarely headed for
the beer parlour with the boys after work, though he was known
to sip a scotch on special occasions. Mostly, he went to Norm
Jones' restaurant for a milkshake.
Though he spent most of his time working, he taught Sunday school
at a Presbyterian church, and served as secretary for a minor
hockey league.
This involvement brought him into contact with Milt
DUNNELL,
the legendary Star sports columnist, who had made a name for
himself at the Stratford Beacon Herald before heading for Toronto.
He told HONDERICH that the Star was looking for reporters to
replace those who had enlisted to serve in World War 2.
HONDERICH,
who had been rejected by the Royal Canadian Air Force and merchant
marine because of poor eyesight and hearing, applied to the Star
in 1943 and was hired as a reporter for $35 a week.
He was proud that the Kitchener city council gave him a vote
of thanks for his fair reporting. And
MOTZ, the publisher who
thought he would never make it in the newspaper business, begged
him not to go.
Stepping into the grandly marbled lobby of the Star's building
at 80 King St. W.,
HONDERICH recalled that he was "scared as
hell." But he was in the right place. This was the world of Joe
ATKINSON.
As publisher, Joseph E.
ATKINSON had guided the paper through
most of the first half-century and was seen by friend and foe
alike as one of the country's leading reformers. It turned out
that the publisher and his new employee had some things in common.
Both had come from large, impoverished, God-fearing families
in small-town Ontario, and quit school early to put food on the
table. "One thing I had in common with Joe
ATKINSON,"
HONDERICH
recalled, "is that I knew need."
There was a major difference, however.
ATKINSON was a star of
Canadian journalism in 1899 when the new owners of the Toronto
Evening
Star hired him at 34 to run the paper.
HONDERICH was
24 when he arrived at the paper, an unproven asset at the time.
But he didn't take long to prove himself. His work was soon noticed
by Harry C.
HINDMARSH,
ATKINSON's son-in-law and the man who
ran the newsroom.
HINDMARSH sent
HONDERICH to Saskatchewan for the election that
brought Tommy Douglas and the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation
(later to become the New Democratic Party) to power in 1944.
The next year he was sent back to do a progress report on North
America's first socialist government. His stories were so enthusiastically
some thought naively -- positive that the Saskatchewan government
asked permission to reprint them.
They also caught the eye of Joe
ATKINSON, whose reform ideas
were at home with the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation's,
although he never endorsed the party at election time.
HONDERICH
was marked as someone worth watching. He was asked to fill in
as an editorial writer, the newspaper job he enjoyed most of
all.
Some critics said
HONDERICH's writing lacked flair or style.
But it was clear. He explained complicated matters in simple,
accurate terms. His idea was to dive right into a story, delivering
the promise of the headline in the first paragraph.
In his reporting career,
HONDERICH covered a wide variety of
assignments, collecting his share of scoops, enough to impress
HINDMARSH. In 1946, he called in
HONDERICH, congratulated him
on a story, then remarked, "Oh, by the way, the financial editor
left today. I'd like you to start as financial editor on Monday."
"But I don't know the difference between a stock and a bond,"
HONDERICH replied.
"You'll learn,"
HINDMARSH said.
HONDERICH told
HINDMARSH he would take the job on the condition
that he be allowed to go back to feature writing if it didn't
work out.
"If you don't make a go of it, you'll go out the door,"
HINDMARSH
said in a menacing way.
It goes without saying that
HONDERICH made a go of it.
One of the first things he noticed from his new desk was a tailor
at work in a building across King St. He decided his business
section would write for that tailor, for the ordinary person.
His News Hall of Fame citation noted: "He led in turning the
writing and presentation of financial news into a readable subject
in terms that interest the average reader." He criticized the
stock exchange, questioned banking methods, recommended profit
sharing, and supported credit unions and other co-operatives.
But when there were major stories to be covered,
HINDMARSH often
took HONDERICH out of his financial department and sent him all
over the globe -- to Newfoundland on the eve of its joining Canada,
to Argentina where press freedom was under attack, to Asia with
Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent for the first round-the-world
trip taken by a Canadian prime minister, and
to Britain for the
funeral of George VI.
In 1948, HONDERICH, along with 12 other employees, chartered
the first Canadian local of the American Newspaper Guild. As
president of the union, he signed the first contract with the
Star.
Some members of the union were suspicious, however, thinking
that as financial editor he was "a company stooge" trying to
make sure the Guild didn't fall into the hands of disgruntled
left-wingers.
They weren't aware, however, that he knew all about bad working
conditions because he had done both day and night assignments
as a young reporter in Kitchener.
He served three terms as Guild president and helped win better
pay and working conditions. Later, on the other side of the negotiating
table, he continued to believe in the need for an organized newsroom,
although that view was severely tested in a bitter strike in
HONDERICH had become a major force in the newsroom when
ATKINSON
died in 1948 after nearly 50 years as publisher of a racy paper
with principles.
His death, however, created a crisis at the paper.
ATKINSON's
will had left the Star to a charitable foundation to be administered
by his trustees. However, the Ontario Conservative government
passed the Charitable Gifts Act, which said no charity could
own more than 10 per cent of a business.
The government may have viewed the will as an attempt to escape
death duties, but more likely the legislation was an attempt
to muzzle the Star, a liberal thorn in the Tory side.
Nevertheless, it became a distinct possibility the paper might
be sold to outside interests. Bidders, including beer baron E.P.
TAILOR/TAYLOR, were lining up for a chance to buy what had become Canada's
most profitable daily.
The Star was granted stays of execution however, and
HINDMARSH,
the founder's son-in-law, succeeded
ATKINSON until his own death
in 1956. In the
HINDMARSH years, the paper seemed to lose direction
and much of its fairness, particularly in the reporting of politics.
The paper's reputation was going downhill.
Meanwhile,
HONDERICH had been appointed editor-in-chief in 1955
and a couple of years later he was appointed to the board, after
HINDMARSH's sudden death. It put him in the position of becoming
an owner of the paper.
Walter GORDON, an accountant who was to become finance minister
in Lester Pearson's Liberal government, worked out a plan for
the trustees to buy the Star by putting up $1 million among the
six of them, including
HONDERICH.
The paper was valued at $25.5
million.
At the time, the sale price was the most ever paid in Canada
for a newspaper, and it turned out to be a steal. Under
HONDERICH's
leadership, Torstar, the Star's parent company, would become
a more than $1 billion enterprise over the next 30-plus years.
For readers and the staff, the
HONDERICH years had begun, although
he didn't take over as publisher until 1966. Immediately, however,
he went about remaking the paper. Headlines didn't scream any
more, and the silly and the sensational disappeared from the
paper.
HONDERICH was putting his stamp on the Star. Reporting only the
facts wasn't good enough. He demanded thorough backgrounding
of stories to make them understandable to the average reader.
Or, as he said, for "my barber."
He created a great newsroom that included sports columnist
DUNNELL
and leading Canadian writers such as Pierre
BERTON,
Peter
NEWMAN,
Charles TEMPLETON and Nathan
COHEN, as well as award-winning
cartoonist Duncan
MacPHERSON.
HONDERICH returned the Star to the principles of Joseph E.
ATKINSON,
including a reform-centred editorial policy. Unemployment, affordable
housing, adequate welfare benefits, medicare, pensions, minority
rights, the need for an independent Canada -- these became subjects
he demanded be dealt with on a daily basis.
In one of his rare public appearances, he told a group of editors
in 1961 that "the basic function of a newspaper is to inform,
to tell the public what is happening in the community, in the
nation and in the world. You will notice I did not use the word,
entertain." He felt that television had made entertainment a
secondary function for newspapers. "How much better then, to
concentrate on what we can do best, and that is to inform the
public."
The change was most evident in the Star's treatment of politics
and economics. The background feature gradually became commonplace
in North American journalism, and a poll of U.S. editors rated
the Star one of the world's 10 top foreign papers.
Critics of the
HONDERICH way -- many of them highly placed in
the paper -- couldn't wait for
HONDERICH's grey, humourless Star
to fail, but they were doomed to disappointment, just as surely
as the Star's competitor -- the unchanging Telegram -- was doomed
to extinction.
Not only did the Star's circulation grow, so did its profits.
Honesty and integrity were words that most people associated
with HONDERICH.
But many on his staff found him a demanding taskmaster,
an uncompromising and often difficult man to deal with. There
was never any doubt that Beland
HONDERICH was the boss. He wasn't
one for chit-chat.
Early in his career as publisher, he all but cut himself off
from the social whirl of movers and shakers. He admitted to becoming
almost reclusive after finding himself challenged at social functions
and parties to defend Star policies he felt needed no defence,
especially since he had put them into place.
But he never felt that way about the public at large. The so-called
Little Guy could get him on the phone more easily than a celebrity
could. His home number was in the book. And in the days when
the Star was an afternoon paper, it wasn't unusual for an evening
editor to get a call from
HONDERICH, who in turn had received
an irate call at home from a reader whose paper hadn't been delivered.
The paper would be delivered by taxi, and the taxi company was
instructed to report to the editor the moment the paper had arrived.
Then HONDERICH would phone the reader to make sure he was satisfied.
The first part of his 12-hour working day was spent poring over
page proofs, quarrelling about leads of stories, questioning
something in the 25th paragraph, asking for more background,
and demanding follow-ups.
He was articulate, often painfully so for the person at the other
end of his complaints. His editors took great pleasure when he
demanded "antidotal" leads. He meant anecdotal leads.
Notes with the heavy-handed
BHH signature on them rained from
his office.
The difficulty everyone had in pleasing him and the way he prowled
the newsroom won him the nickname "The Beast." And he was called
"Drac" by some editors who thought he, like the vampire, sucked
the staff dry.
When the paper departed from what the reader had come to believe
was a Star tradition, he took to the typewriter to explain the
reasons himself. In 1972, for example, he put his initials on
an editorial that explained why the Star was supporting Progressive
Conservative Robert Stanfield over Liberal Pierre Trudeau in
the federal election.
In his rare public appearances, the nasal flatness of his voice
often disguised the passion he felt for a subject. However, he
was an effective spokesman for the causes he championed. In defending
the Star's strong stand on economic nationalism, he told the
Canadian Club it was based on the need to preserve the differences
between Canada and the United States.
"I think our society tends to be more compassionate, somewhat
less extreme and certainly less violent," he said. "We put more
emphasis on basic human needs such as health insurance and pensions."
He warned that increased U.S. ownership of Canadian resources
would endanger our ability to maintain those differences.
In a 1989 speech at Carleton University in Ottawa, he caused
a stir when he argued that objectivity in newspapers was neither
possible nor desirable.
"No self-respecting newspaper deliberately distorts or slants
the news to make it conform to its own point of view," he said.
"But you cannot publish a newspaper without making value judgments
on what news you select to publish and how you present it in
the paper.
"And these value judgments reflect a view of society -- a point
of view if you will -- that carries as much weight, if not more,
than what is said on the editorial page."
Just as
ATKINSON used the news pages to popularize reform ideas,
HONDERICH used them as a weapon in his own causes.
One example was his reaction to a document leaked to him outlining
then-prime minister Brian Mulroney's government strategy on free
trade. It said the communications strategy "should rely less
on educating the public than getting across the message that
the free trade initiative is a good idea -- in other words a
selling job."
HONDERICH made sure all aspects of free trade were put under
the kind of scrutiny the government wanted to avoid, particularly
the possible effects on employment and social benefits.
Simon REISMAN, the bellicose chief trade negotiator, accused
HONDERICH of personally waging a vendetta against free trade.
He said HONDERICH used the Star "in a manner that contradicts
every sense of fairness and decency in the newspaper business."
In reply, the unrepentant publisher said: "The role of a newspaper,
as I see it, is to engage in the full and frank dissemination
of the news and opinion from the perspective of its values and
particular view of society. It should report the news fairly
and accurately, reflect all pertinent facts and opinions and
not only what the official establishment thinks and says."
As publisher, he demonstrated an impressive business savvy for
a man who once said he hardly knew the difference between a stock
and a bond. In 1972, he moved the paper to new quarters at One
Yonge St.
And later, in his position as chief executive officer of the
parent company, Torstar Corp., he acquired Harlequin Enterprises,
the world's largest publisher of romance books, and 15 community
newspapers to add to the 14 the Star already owned in the Toronto
area.
At the same time,
HONDERICH still was very much making his mark
in journalism. He was the first in Canada to introduce a bureau
of accuracy and to appoint an ombudsman to represent the reader
in the newsroom. In a wider sense, he was the main force behind
the establishment of the Ontario Press Council, where readers
can take their complaints to an independent body.
As well as his election to the News Hall of Fame, he was honoured
in other ways, receiving doctors of law degrees from Wilfrid
Laurier and York universities, and the Order of Canada in 1987.
HONDERICH was married three times, the last time on New Year's
Day 2000 to Rina
WHELAN of Vancouver, the city where he lived
until his death. He had two sons: John, who followed in his father's
footsteps to become publisher of the Star, and David, an entrepreneur
and one daughter, Mary, a philosophy and English teacher. He
also had six grandchildren.
Even into his eighties,
HONDERICH exercised daily and loved to
play bridge, golf and fish.
Charles E.
PASCAL, executive director of the Atkinson Charitable
Foundation, recalled golfing with
HONDERICH after he had entered
his eighties.
PASCAL was in his mid-fifties.
"I expected to be slowed down by playing with a couple of guys
in their seventies and one in his eighties,"
PASCAL said. "Bee,
as with everything else, played golf with determination, focus
and tenacity. I was quite impressed with his golfing. He was
very competitive."
After HONDERICH stepped down as publisher in 1988, and as a director
of Torstar in 1995, he lost none of his zeal for pursuing causes.
He did this through the Atkinson Charitable Foundation and his
own personal philanthropy.
"His role on our board was absolutely essential, forceful, radical,"
PASCAL said.
"I had the sense that the older he got he became more and more
impatient. He was impatient, just impatient, about all that is
yet to be done by governments and others to reduce the inequities
for those who are disadvantaged through no fault of their own."
He was generous in his giving and, as was his character, he had
no interest in public recognition or praise.
"He just had no time whatsoever for personal recognition,"
PASCAL
recalled.
"I think he would have liked to have been around forever if for
no other reason than to contribute more."
At HONDERICH's request, there will be a cremation, after which
the family will hold a small private gathering to celebrate his
life.
