Message from the Director of Education and Chair of the Board Administrative Professionals' Day “I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.” – St. Mother Teresa Wednesday, April 24th is Administrative Professionals' Day. We are proud to recognize and celebrate our school and department secretaries, administrative assistants and clerical staff for their contributions to the TCDSB community. These individuals are often the first point of contact for students, staff, parents and members of the community. They are integral to providing a warm and welcoming environment in our schools and offices and support to those who rely on them on a day-to-day basis. Through their dedication to Catholic education, their enthusiasm and skills, our administrative staff members play a crucial role in supporting student success and well-being. We are blessed to have knowledgeable and talented individuals within our board who help us to transform the world though witness, faith innovation and action. Our administrative staff members also support strategies to educate students to grow in grace and knowledge, and to lead lives of faith, hope and charity. We encourage everyone to take time to show their appreciation and gratitude for the invaluable work of these exceptional individuals who we rely on every day. On behalf of the Trustees, Senior Team and entire Toronto Catholic District School Board family, we thank you for your dedication of service to our board and to Catholic education.

The Argos are no strangers to Varsity Stadium as it served as the home of the Double Blue from 1916-1958 as well as playing host to a number of Argonauts preseason games this decade. The Argos are happy to announce this will be a school day game with tickets being sold directly through Toronto District, Toronto Catholic and York School Boards with a portion of the proceeds benefitting each school board's foundations. Students will be treated to giveaways, mascot, and cheer squad performances as well as a Huddle Up Anti Bullying Program assembly at halftime. A limited number of tickets will be held for season ticket members available in early May. "Providing an opportunity for kids to come to an Argos game, perhaps for the first time is a top priority for our organization and that is why it was important to isolate an 11 am preseason game in participation with the school boards.

  • Exhibition Place Master Plan – Phase 1 Proposals Report
    Acknowledgments The site of Exhibition Place has had a long tradition as a gathering place. Given its location on the water, these lands would have attracted Indigenous populations before recorded history. We acknowledge that the land occupied by Exhibition Place is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Metis peoples. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands. Figure 1.

  • Bob Rowe: Hall of Famer Story
    The Rotary Club of Calgary Bob Rowe: Hall of Famer story The Club was privileged to welcome Bob Rowe, a Calgarian through and through and a respected oilman in this province over the last forty years. Bob recently produced his first book, "Pappy," the life story of his father, Calgary Stampeder and CFL Hall of Fame great Paul Rowe. The theme of his speech was “The Forgotten Heroes”. The timing could not have been better, as we were transported by Bob from the afterglow of an epic Labour Day 2012 Stampeders’ victory over the Edmonton Eskimos, to a much earlier celebration in 1948 when the team won its first of six Grey Cups with Paul Rowe starring. That year was perhaps the greatest season in Stamps history, when they became the only professional Canadian football team ever to achieve a perfect season with a record of 12–0. They capped the year with a 12-7 Grey Cup victory over the Ottawa Rough Riders at Toronto's The Rotary Club of Varsity Stadium. It was also during that same Grey Cup festival that Calgary fans brought pageantry to the game and turned it into a national celebration, featuring pancake breakfasts Calgary is an organization of on the steps of City Hall and starting the Grey Cup parade. The well-beloved former Lt. professional and community Governor of Alberta, The Honourable Norman Kwong, was another player on that famous th leaders who come together Stamps team. The day of their triumph, November 27 , also happened to be the very same one that Bob Rowe was born.

Received: 18 July 2013; in revised form: 12 November 2013 / Accepted: 14 November 2013 / Published: 29 November 2013 Abstract: Researchers have positioned renewable energy as sustainable and able to mitigate environmental issues associated with fossil fuels. Further, sustainable initiatives have been offered as a point of differentiation for brands. In order to reap the benefits of such differentiation, managers must communicate the initiatives to relevant stakeholders. The research question guiding the current investigation thus was: What is the communication by Canadian sport stadium operators to calls for sustainable initiatives, specifically in the area of renewable energy? The examination included the 15 sport stadiums that hosted a professional team in Canada and their web-based stadium communications on renewable energy (SCORE). Understandings and competencies in renewable energy are proposed as a new function of sport stadium management; communication of these competencies is seen as a key point of differentiation and best practice. Keywords: renewable energy; sustainability; communications; sport; Canada 1. Introduction The world economy is dependent upon energy from fossil fuel sources to meet its needs, and ensuring a stable source of energy is a growing concern.
