It's back to school for about 20,000 students in Ward 5. I hope everyone had a restful and fun summer. However, I realize it was not easy for many near the Wilson and Keele area. I didn't know the late District Chief Bob Leek, but we all know what he represented. When the call came he was at home, on vacation and yet he headed to the propane explosion. He passed away in the line of duty as part of a team that was protecting us, our homes, our businesses and our schools. For most of us we owe a great debt to someone we didn't even know. At the same time, Ward 5 will always be indebted to the TDSB teams in health and safety; repair and construction; communications; fellow trustees; safe schools; our counseling services; principals Elizabeth Bell (Ancaster PS) and Maria Palermo (Downsview SS); and their superintendents, Gen Ling Chang and Jeff Hainbuch. The talent of our staff were never in doubt. I am proud to say that both Ancaster PS and Downsivew SS are up and running today thanks to that great team.
