  • “Keeping the Kids out of Trouble”: Extra-Domestic Labour and Social Reproduction in Toronto’S Regent Park, 1959-2012
    “KEEPING THE KIDS OUT OF TROUBLE”: EXTRA-DOMESTIC LABOUR AND SOCIAL REPRODUCTION IN TORONTO’S REGENT PARK, 1959-2012 RYAN K. JAMES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2017 © Ryan K. James, 2017 Abstract This dissertation is an historical ethnography of social reproduction in Regent Park, Canada’s first public housing project. Built from 1948 to 1959 as part of a modernist ‘slum clearance’ initiative, Regent Park was deemed a failure soon after it opened and was then stigmatised for decades thereafter, both for being a working-class enclave and for epitomising an outdated approach to city planning. A second redevelopment began in 2005, whereby the project is being demolished and rebuilt as a mix of subsidised and market housing, retail space, and other amenities. Despite its enduring stigmatisation, however, many current and former residents retain positive memories of Regent Park. Participants in this study tended to refer to it as a ‘community’, indicating senses of shared ownership and belonging that residents themselves built in everyday life. This dissertation emphasises the capacity of working-class people to build and maintain ‘community’ on their own terms, and in spite of multiple and intersecting constraints. To theorise community-building, I begin from the concept of social reproduction: the work of maintaining and replenishing stable living conditions, both day-to-day and across generations. Much of this work is domestic labour – unpaid tasks done inside the household such as cooking, cleaning, and raising children.

  • “Mr. Ford Risks Alienating His Key Supporters: Both the Business Community and Fellow Conservatives
    Queen’s Park Today – Daily Report November 2, 2020 Quotation of the day “Mr. Ford risks alienating his key supporters: both the business community and fellow conservatives. And Mr. Kenney, experts warn, could quickly set off a public-health disaster if the situation gets out of control.” The Globe and Mail compares Ontario and Alberta's pandemic responses. While Premier Jason ​ ​ ​ ​ Kenney has been criticized for a lighter-touch approach, Premier Doug Ford may be pivoting to ​ ​ ​ Kenney's playbook, asking health officials to draft a plan to ease restrictions in hot spots. Today at Queen’s Park Written by Sabrina Nanji On the schedule The house reconvenes at 9 a.m. for private members’ business; on this morning's docket is second reading of NDP MPP Jeff Burch's Bill 164, Protecting Vulnerable Persons in ​ ​ ​ ​ Supportive Living Accommodation Act. Burch's bill would establish a licensing system for operators of supportive living settings such as nursing homes and children's residences. Bill 202, Soldiers' Aid Commission Act — which shakes up the commission's operations and ​ reporting requirements — was referred back to the house from committee last week and is expected to be called for third reading this afternoon. With a handful of government bills currently at the committee stage, Bill 213 and Bill 207 are ​ ​ ​ ​ the only other ones that could be up for debate today. Bill 213, at second reading, is the ​ ​ red-tape reduction legislation that also gives degree-granting powers and university status to Charles McVety's Canada Christian College. Bill 207 is now back from committee study and ​ ​ ​ poised for third reading; it would align provincial family law with recent federal changes.

  • Rethinking Toronto's Middle Landscape: Spaces of Planning, Contestation, and Negotiation Robert Scott Fiedler a Dissertation S
    RETHINKING TORONTO’S MIDDLE LANDSCAPE: SPACES OF PLANNING, CONTESTATION, AND NEGOTIATION ROBERT SCOTT FIEDLER A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN GEOGRAPHY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2017 © Robert Scott Fiedler, 2017 Abstract This dissertation weaves together an examination of the concept and meanings of suburb and suburban, historical geographies of suburbs and suburbanization, and a detailed focus on Scarborough as a suburban space within Toronto in order to better understand postwar suburbanization and suburban change as it played out in a specific metropolitan context and locale. With Canada and the United States now thought to be suburban nations, critical suburban histories and studies of suburban problems are an important contribution to urbanistic discourse and human geographical scholarship. Though suburbanization is a global phenomenon and suburbs have a much longer history, the vast scale and explosive pace of suburban development after the Second World War has a powerful influence on how “suburb” and “suburban” are represented and understood. One powerful socio-spatial imaginary is evident in discourses on planning and politics in Toronto: the city-suburb or urban-suburban divide. An important contribution of this dissertation is to trace out how the city-suburban divide and meanings attached to “city” and “suburb” have been integral to the planning and politics that have shaped and continue to shape Scarborough and Toronto. The research employs an investigative approach influenced by Michel Foucault’s critical and effective histories and Bent Flyvbjerg’s methodological guidelines for phronetic social science.

THese bike lanes will make it easier for residents and front-line workers to cycle to work and practice pHysical distancing. As we begin to transition to recovery in Toronto and more businesses and workplaces open back up, How we will get around is a pressing challenge. For safe pHysical distancing we need to create alternative and safe metHods of transportation. Switching to driving isn’t an option for many, and even if it was, tHe resulting gridlock will grind traffic to a Halt, strangling our city and economy. It’s time for a new approach. Bike lanes on University Avenue (tHrougH Queen’s Park Crescent) and on Bloor Street will provide relief to two subway lines, creating more space on tHe subway for tHose wHo need to ride transit, and offering a new cycling option tHat is safe and uses our limited road space as efficiently as possible to move tHe most people. THe new separated bike lanes on tHese routes will connect cyclists to many of tHe area’s Hospitals and HealtH care facilities. Doctors for Safe Cycling, representing many pHysicians from downtown Hospitals, issued a letter earlier tHis montH asking for protected bike lanes, so tHat HealtH care workers, clients, and otHers can commute safely to tHe Hospital district by bike.

  • Toronto City Council Enviro Report Card 2010-2014
    TORONTO CITY COUNCIL ENVIRO REPORT CARD 2010-2014 TORONTO ENVIRONMENTAL ALLIANCE • JUNE 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY hortly after the 2010 municipal election, TEA released a report noting that a majority of elected SCouncillors had committed to building a greener city. We were right but not in the way we expected to be. Councillors showed their commitment by protecting important green programs and services from being cut and had to put building a greener city on hold. We had hoped the 2010-14 term of City Council would lead to significant advancement of 6 priority green actions TEA had outlined as crucial to building a greener city. Sadly, we’ve seen little - if any - advancement in these actions. This is because much of the last 4 years has been spent by a slim majority of Councillors defending existing environmental policies and services from being cut or eliminated by the Mayor and his supporters; programs such as Community Environment Days, TTC service and tree canopy maintenance. Only in rare instances was Council proactive. For example, taking the next steps to grow the Greenbelt into Toronto; calling for an environmental assessment of Line 9. This report card does not evaluate individual Council members on their collective inaction in meeting the 2010 priorities because it is almost impossible to objectively grade individual Council members on this. Rather, it evaluates Council members on how they voted on key environmental issues. The results are interesting: • Average Grade: C+ • The Mayor failed and had the worst score. • 17 Councillors got A+ • 16 Councillors got F • 9 Councillors got between A and D In the end, the 2010-14 Council term can be best described as a battle between those who wanted to preserve green programs and those who wanted to dismantle them.
