Kayla Higgins can hardly wait to go to jail.

A bright 20-year-old North York resident, Higgins is looking at it from a professional perspective – that of helping people – and figures one of the best places is to have an office right in a detention centre.

Higgins grew up in a neigh-bourhood not far from an area of the city with a reputation for gun and drug crime – Jane and Finch.

Driven by passion and a strong commitment to social justice, she wanted to make an impact and help people – those she said who have made mistakes – survive and thrive.

And Higgins, quite adamant about her future and also that

of packaging a combination of certificate, diploma and degree – from academic programs related to social work and community service – isn’t wasting any time.

“Everyone makes mistakes, some more serious than others, and we hear of far too many stories about people making wrong decisions,” said Higgins, who already has a certificate from George Brown College and

is now working on the diploma in an intense community worker program.

“I want to be one of those individuals that helps change lives, get them back on track and become good citizens. What’s wrong with that?”

Co-operation, teamwork and mutual support are three of the key factors Higgins believes are

A North York mother is dead after being struck by two cars outside her home yesterday.

The accident happened on Lawrence Avenue, east of Dufferin Street, at 6:53 a.m.

Neiky Pardo, 33, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police said the pedestrian was crossing Lawrence mid-block from the south side when a westbound gold 2004 Nissan Maxima driven by a 28-year-old man hit her.

“She was knocked into the east-bound lanes and struck by an east-bound Volvo,” Const. Clint Stibbe said.

The grey 2006 Volvo, driven by a 52-year-old man, was then rear-ended by a Mazda.

It was raining and dark at the time; police believe those were fac-tors in the collision.

“But any time you have a mid-block crossing, it is dangerous to begin with,” Stibbe said.

Pardo, the mother of a young child, lived on Lawrence, steps from the accident scene.

Police closed Lawrence between Dufferin and Bolingbroke Road for about five hours as they investigated the collision.

“We are appealing for witnesses,” Stibbe said. “We’re asking them to come forward.”

Anyone with information should call police at 416-808-1900.

One minute after Pardo was struck, a hit-and-run vehicle seriously injured a pedestrian on Eglinton Avenue at Peveril Hill North, a block west of Bathurst Street.

Governor General David Johnston will visit Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre today to open a world-first lab at the North York hospital.

The lab, containing almost 14,000 square metres (150,000 square feet) on two new floors, represents “some of the most innova-

tive medical research space in the world,” a statement from Sunnybrook said.

Johnston will tour more than 20 new groundbreak-ing labs covering a wide variety of medical fields, including stem cell biology, bio-molecular, orthopedics, cardiac care and neuro-intervention.

Meanwhile, students from Marc Garneau Collegiate Institute’s Talented Offerings for Programs in Sciences (TOPS) will display work they have conducted while interning at Sunnybrook.

Johnston will present a prize to the student who presents the most outstand-ing work.

Police have identified a man who was shot Monday near Allen Road and Lawrence Avenue and later died.

Marvin Engelbrecht, 24, of Toronto, was found with

a gunshot wound to the head just after midnight at an address on Flemington Road.

He was taken to hospital where he succumbed to his

injury. Anyone with informa-

tion is asked to call police at 416−808−7400 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416−222−8477.

‘Engaged Communities Prevent Crime.’ This is the theme of Crime Prevention Week launched today, which is run by the Ministry

of Community Safety and Correctional Services. Give credit where it’s due: local police divi-

sions have done a good job keeping the commu-nity engaged through their various social media accounts.

Upcoming car seat clinic dates are posted on Scarborough’s 41 Division Facebook page, a video on home security tips can be found on Etobicoke’s 22 Division page, and a link to local crime statistics is provided on North York’s 31 Division page.

Kudos to the individual police officers who have taken advantage of social media interacting with community members through their own personal accounts.

Const. Glenn Jones from 31 Division is constantly on Twitter, telling the public what program he’s involved with, where he’s going to be, and thanking his followers.

Staff Sgt. Kim Scanlan of 23 Division in Etobicoke also tweets regularly, most recently providing tips on having a safe Halloween, and posting photos of local community events she’s attended.

Twitter followers of media officer Wendy Drummond would have known to avoid Eglinton Avenue East near McCowan Road in a timely manner due to a gas leak on Halloween.

Being more social has helped build a more posi-tive relationship between law enforcement and the public they’re charged to serve and protect.

And they’re not hard to find. Just follow the Toronto Police Twitter feed at twitter.com/TorontoPolice or subscribe to their Facebook page at facebook.com/TorontoPolice to see who’s online.

Of course, being engaged also means being con-nected with those living in your community. While keeping an open dialogue on the web can be useful, there’s no substitute for being active in the neigh-bourhood.

So use the Internet to organize a community event or look for one nearby, then take the next step to attend and get involved with local activities. Crime prevention is a shared responsibility.

Crime Prevention Week, a province-wide initiative, officially runs between Nov. 4 to 10 this year.

But as you wouldn’t normally stop checking emails, surfing the web or logging into Facebook after just one week, crime prevention and being engaged with your community should be a year-round practice.

Fight crime by being involved

To the editor:Re: ‘Ford must focus in

next two years,’ Editorial, Oct. 26.

Mayor Rob Ford has made mountains of right-wing media coverage over his insistence the city is divided – the downtown versus the suburbs.

If this is true, then a good mayor would focus

on downplaying this and addressing it – not expand-ing it and fueling the fire.

The mayor must focus on getting transit to all areas of the city in an affordable and sustainable manner.

Ford has done nothing but cry and shout ‘I want it my way.’ All he has done is waste time and money.

Stop focusing on chang-

ing the agreements that were in place. Ford has wasted two years of con-struction time.

Transit is a major eco-nomic ingredient and surface transit is a good way to open those stores that sit unused. Passengers on subways see blank walls whereas on the surface you see places to shop, eat and

be entertained. Economic development is not an underground thing.

Another area that Ford must focus is something that your editorial feeds: there is no left, right or centre in city governance. It should be working together for the good of the city, not the good of the media.

Glenn Kitchen

To the editor:Re: ‘Shut Out: Increase

in fees puts the squeeze on community groups in search of affordable space,’ Special Report, Oct. 25.

Schools, playing fields, parks, libraries and commu-nity centres are all essential parts of our communities in Toronto. They belong to the citizens of Toronto and are a part of what makes this city a healthy and safe place for

all of us and our children to live in.

The people of Toronto have already paid for these facilities, and we pay taxes so they will be available for any of us to use them when we need to.

That’s why the special report matters to all of us.

The politicians who have been elected to council and the Toronto District School Board would have us believe

there is no money available to make these community resources available for the people of Toronto. They want us to believe that indi-vidual users and teams will have to pay more to use our public facilities.

That is not true. The money to make public facil-ities available for free, or at reasonable rates, is available in Toronto.

If we want to continue

to have healthy communi-ties all across Toronto, the people will have to speak up so politicians do not allocate our community resources only to those who have the ability to pay their ever increasing fees.

We are a city that has been blessed with many public facilities. Let’s not make these available only to the highest bidder.

Ford has wasted time and money on his subway dreams

To the editor:Re: ‘Rising fees impact

youth groups,’ Special Report, Oct. 25.

I am Father Andy Leroux pastor of Living Hope on Bellamy Road. Our volun-teers have run a sports pro-gram at Woburn Collegiate for the past seven years. We have upward of 50 youth on Saturday mornings.

Recently, we were told the rental fee would go from $1,200 to $4,500. The problem is it is impossible for us to continue with this program because of the unrealistic hike in the fees. How many other groups are in the same boat?

A strong society is based on programs such as ours. Surely, the Toronto District School Board needs to look more carefully at other ways of cutting back – their administration costs, for one example.

I am asking for a com-munity groundswell to rise up and say enough. This is our community and we want our youth to grow up healthy, safe and contribu-tors to our (city).

That game is preceded by the other semifinal at 11

On Sunday, the losers will hook up for the bronze medal game at 11 a.m. while the winners will gun for gold at 2 p.m.

On & Off the Wall appears monthly in The North York Mirror. To submit an item for consideration, email [email protected]. The deadline for next month’s column is Friday, Nov. 16.

When Fiddler on the Roof premiered on Broadway in September 1964, it

proved an instant audience favou-rite, running for more than seven years.

With its tuneful score, rich char-acters and compelling story, it can be produced big and elaborate but can also be just as effective when done on a smaller, more intimate scale. Encore Entertainment takes the latter approach.

Directed by Mario D’Alimonte, the familiar tale of the hardwork-ing dairyman Tevya and his quest to find suitable husbands for his daughters is skillfully acted and wonderfully sung.

Derrick Evans makes Tevya a warm, likable and loving father and husband trying to reconcile modern ways with the traditions of his faith. He plays Tevya with less bombast than other stars who have taken on this role, but that simply allows the heart of the man to beat a little bolder for us.

When he sings If I Were a Rich Man he milks every laugh without sacrificing character. As his loving but strong-willed wife, Golde, Sarah Haley Matte mixes pragma-tism and hope. When the two join voices in the Sabbath Prayer or the comic duet Do You Love Me there is tremendous attention to the underlying meaning of the lyrics.

That same attention to detail is found in every performance on view here. When Lisa Ferreira, Mindy Perlmutter and Carina Cautillo join voices in the trio Matchmaker, Matchmaker we sail along with the sprightly tune, while savouring the subtext as these girls consider their future matrimonial prospects.

Ferreira is particularly touching as the eldest daughter, Tzeitel, the first to break with tradition. She persuades her father to allow her

to marry the man she loves (a poor tailor, Motel, played with gentle comic charm by Daniel Rostas) instead of the rich butcher (force-fully played by Peter Pequegnat) who fancies her.

This sets in motion a plan for her sisters to also marry for love with Aaron Sidenberg and Luke Slade as their mates of choice. Sidenberg makes the radical student Perchik playful and char-ismatic, while Slade makes Fyedka sympathetic. The scene where Tevya shuns his daughter Chava after she elopes outside of her faith with Fyedka allows both Evans and Cautillo moments of heartbreaking anguish.

The entire cast – even the smaller roles such as Michelle Cote’s Yente the matchmaker and Zandee Toovey’s Fruma Sarah in the show’s comically macabre dream sequence – creates vivid, believable characters.

The sets are kept simple and basic – a table here, a bench there – with projections supplying addi-tional atmosphere.

Fiddler on the Roof is a Broadway classic and Encore’s pro-duction serves as a sharp reminder of why it remains so.

Fiddler on the Roof is on stage in the studio theatre at the Toronto Centre for the Arts, 5040 Yonge St. through Sunday, Nov. 4. For tickets visit www.encoreshows.com or call 416-872-1111.

key factors Higgins believes are necessary to pull off her career plans.

And all three are what a humble, but conscien-tious Higgins does so well outside of the educational classroom – as a member of the George Brown women’s basketball team.

“Society has inmates at the bottom of everything,” she said. “I can understand that bad things got them there, but I believe having the right people around to help them can go a long way to correcting prob-lems.”

Higgins, who has never been in conflict, admits she has had friends spend time in jail.

And, after graduating from Emery Collegiate, spent two years working at a City of Toronto commu-nity centre near her home where she benefitted from an understanding of those with issues and others needing assistance or simply a place away from the challenges of the day.

“I know people also have

to be willing to change after making a mistake,” she said.

“To do my job, I need to be able to understand what the problems are and then determine a way to help people work their way out of it and be happy with their lives.”

On the basketball court, a time when Higgins breaks from the chal-lenges of school work to the demands of winning games, the 5-foot-10 for-ward can be tough to play against.

“She is a caring person and has a tough exterior,”

said George Brown basket-ball coach Sharon Butler.

“I’m actually watching her transform into a leader. She’s anxious to do well, understands her actions can affect others and, now maturing as a leader, she’s communicating well both on and off the basketball court.”

Higgins earned her way on to the starting basketball roster this season at George Brown after spending last year coming off the bench and helping the Huskies claim a bronze medal – their first in 20 years in the Ontario Colleges Athletic Association. She’s also one of the top scorers on the George Brown roster.

“Like anything, you work hard and wait for the opportunities,” said Higgins, an MVP at Emery and now top scorer in four pre-season games in the past month with the Huskies (1-4).

“Basketball is a game and quite a bit different from what I want to do with my future – to help change society.”

Finished basements can save energy with more living spaceBy � nishing your basement, you can gain more living space while reducing the amount of energy loss from downstairs. Base-ments that are not fully � nished typically do not have insulated walls or covered � ooring, which can result in heat loss and cause your furnace to work overtime.

A renovated basement of-fers more than additional storage space. It can provide a lot of extra room for a grow-ing family, such as space for a gym, home theatre, o� ce, guest suite, or a playroom for the kids.

To ensure a comfortable and inviting basement, there are a few project components to consider:• Insulation will ensure your

space is warm and com-fortable. For best results, install a ‘stone wool batt’ insulation product.

• Drywall will help de� ne the space and make it feel like a part of your home. If you haven’t tackled dry-wall before, consider hiring

a pro to ensure your walls are seamless.

• Flooring should be water sealed and covered with an insulated material. Con-sider laying padding before carpet or in-� oor heating before tiles.

• Personalize it with � nish-

ing touches. Select furniture that can � t down a typically steep staircase and choose items that compliment the rest of your home’s décor, making your basement feel like an extension of your living space.
