So that's how you pack-em-in? Where's the humanity? Unless there is some under the table action, the residents of this neighbour know better and my money's on Le Tork.
TO vs TB29 Mar 2019 10:57
This is Toronto sweetheart, not Thunder Bay. The density here is quite a bit greater because more people want to live here than there.

Okay, I'll play. It is obvious you know sfa about Architecture OR Thunder Bay but its your lucky day as I am in the mood to wax poetic about the secret oath architects take, and Mr. Fudd, it ain't about density, it is about the quality of life experienced at one's end-of-days and again...Fuddskie, this complex ain't it. The guy who runs Extendacare makes 4M a year. Hell will reserve a special place for them. As for Thunder Bay, I married a metsa poiss and we have logged thousands of kms on Canada's rivers, yeah that's right baby, white water, just the two of us. Enjoy your density, while we hand out carrots to Caribou under the dome of heaven . . . and I am not your sweetheart.

Sad young Estonian in Toronto29 Mar 2019 20:27
Very sad that our Estonian community did not use this property for our own seniors and future seniors.
One day my own grandparents will need somewhere to go and it would be nice if the place were central so that they could interact more with their friends and relatives.
Would have liked our assets to be reinvested in the community but in a way the mostly benefits those who sacrificed the most to get us here.
to - Sad...30 Mar 2019 08:39
Your thoughts at concern for our seniors is commendable.
A few years ago, Ehatare looked for a new property for a new facility for our seniors and discovered that anything within 80 km of Toronto was out of reach: either too expensive or precluded by zoning ordinances.
Re- Ehatare30 Mar 2019 21:46
Even sadder to hear that there was no koostöö with those at Eesti Maja to create something together with Ehatare. I am sure that the Eesti Maja shareholders would have been interested. (Although maybe not the credit union?) What have we become? Someone told me that Vana Andrese kirik was also interested in doing something with Eesti Maja. I am not a religious person, but even this would have been a good solution for our community.
A comment on Ehatare01 Apr 2019 10:16
Options were explored, along the lines you suggest but, for a host of reasons, none proved to be practical.
The whole matter was made more complicated because this transpired during an ugly feud which pitted Ehatare's residents and their families against allies of a dismissed employee. It dragged on for about two years and, to it's everlasting shame, Eesti Elu sided with the mob!
If I had a say in the matter, I'd sell Eesti Maja and direct the proceeds to Ehatare's residents -- those who built Eesti Maja.

Interesting?31 Mar 2019 15:00
Has anyone currently working on the Estonian Centre Project, ever worked for, or with Revera in the past 5 years?
Just curious.
Fox Mulder03 Apr 2019 08:55
Isn't it a sad day?

posts with vulgarities, innuendos and name calling is permitted. YET when someone mentions a perennial muckraker's name THAT post is deleted.

WHY?
Fox Mulder04 Apr 2019 18:39
will you be candid, Allan?03 Oct 2015 12:23
In this exchange, Meiusi hits "the hot button".The Ehatare Affair" still excites hard feelings and, more so, because the community isn't privy to the details.
The dismissed employee's personnel file is, appropriately, private and; after she launched her lawsuit, the parties involved, appropriately, refrained from public comment and the eventual settlement included a confidentiality clause.
Initially, Ehatare's residents and their family members leaned in favour of the dismissed employee, although support waned after a suitable replacement was hired.
Friends of the employee unconnected to Ehatare remained loyal and militantly so. Initially, they organized a campaign to re-hire the employee. When that failed, they went for revenge with no ethical restraint. It was an ugly thing to witness and many of us initial supporters were disgusted.
For two years, Ehatare's management cowered in silent fear as a gang harassed and slandered. Eesti Elu chose sides the matter, to its everlasting shame.
Allan Meiusi was an energetic member of this gang. Now, he's willing to chat about it publicly. Long overdue, I'd say! Participation should include someone from Ehatare since they would have a complete record of the shameful chain of events.
It would be a waste of time, if Allan refused to be candid, however, and for that reason, we should ask, again, "Were you the source of the baseless complaints against Ehatare to the Ministry of Health?"

Why do you keep dragging the Ehatare into all this? Give it a rest, it is not relevant in discussions of Eesti Maja.

Allan has publicly offered to on camera interview, as long as his nameless accusers agree to do the questioning, either in English or Estonian. For some reason I think he will come out of this better than his cowardly anonymous accusers.

Please Fox Mulder and the other guy, go for it. I would pay to see this.
to - Camera04 Apr 2019 22:10
The Ehatare affair is relevant because Allan Meiusi was prominent among the activists who tried to destroy the place after they failed to get Rosie reinstated. That's a long story that has never been aired in public.
Allan Meiusi moved on try to save Eesti Maja, in part, by thwarting the Madison Ave. project. With seemingly limitless energy fueled by venom, he's using his old tactics: false allegations of incompetence and malfeasance.
It's doubtful that he'd agree to public discussion. He's using his status here to erase comments that he doesn't like.
Allan Meiusi: if you're ever slandered, the launch a lawsuit!

Fox Mulder and the other guy, seriously, it is not good for your blood pressure to hold a grudge for so long, be it real or perceived.

Your main grievance seems to be that the past "Ehatare affair" has not received enough public attention and the "perpetrators" have not received enough public shaming. So you drag this into every discussion you can find, you try to destroy the characters of your perceived enemies. I find it very tiresome and not helpful to your other cause of "sell EM and build EK".

AM has already proposed a solution to this - on camera interview where you can ask any questions you want. Please do us all a favour and accept his proposal! What do you have to lose? You can finally achieve your goals, good for you and good for everybody else.
Reader03 Apr 2019 12:38
Oh, Fox, get over yourself.
There are enough Meiusi referenced comments.
Maybe you're just trolling and left a comment that was way off topic, waiting for it to be dropped.
Fox Mulder03 Apr 2019 17:16
sorry nothing like what you are referencing to.

Everytime there is a reference of
"He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named"

the post is usually

are we truly dealing with ................

Perhaps you should look more closely.
Meiusi can definitely be found.
Fox Mulder04 Apr 2019 09:26
anytime someone posts anything remotely disparaging against said person the post is deleted.

...some disparaging comments are justified!
If not, they could give rise to a slander suit. For $100, a lawyer will send a letter to that end.

Were you around for the Ehatare fiasco?

Were you around for the EM insinuations from said individual?

For someone whose claim to "fame" is based on such successes as:

- The Kids of Degrassi Street (1979)
- Pinal County AZ
- Pilot Travel Centers LLC (Inactive)
- Argentia bunkers of NFLD
- Cabit Systems Corp.
- 6802 Highland Blf San Antonio TX 78233
- Baltic Workboats AS & Nasva hotell

I can't believe that he could compare "himself" to those who are leading the Estonian Cultural Centre?

Then again I don't understand his self importance.

Thanks for you concern about my BP, not to worry I may let my BP rise on occasion, but never wasted it on "the star" from deGrassi.

Meiusi's [sic.] journalism05 Apr 2019 07:12
Select any article written by Allan Meiusi. Then, ask yourself why it's so hard to follow.
They're full of references to unspecified people and events, all of them, alluding to something sinister. In tyhat manner, he telegraphs a message "between the lines" to leave a general impression, without exposing himself to a slander suit.
Fox Mulder05 Apr 2019 14:34
Let's have a straight answer!04 Oct 2015 13:06
After "the Rosie affair" exploded, the Ministry of Health was inundated with vacuous complaints about Ehatare.
These dragged on for a year!
Suspicion fell upon Allan Meiusi and, when he was asked about it, he refused to either confirm or deny.
Now he's willing to sit down and discuss this matter, but; he's still unwilling to confirm or deny.
He's known for his long-winded incomprehensible rhetoric as slick as snot on a rooster's lip.
There's no point in trying to talk to him. He prides himself on his double-talk.

Where and when...05 Apr 2019 14:02
...has Meiusi agreed to face his accusers?
At an Annual General Meeting of the Estonian Foundation, he was asked if he made a dozen or so false alarms to the Ministry of Health, he refused to either confirm or deny!
These were very disruptive as the Ministry promptly sent out inspectors and brought services to our seniors to an abrupt halt.
There's a law against such mischief and Meiusi should have been charged.
camera05 Apr 2019 14:27
He has agreed to it here

https://www.eesti.ca/?op=allCo...

If you don't agree to go through with this, I'll ask EWR to censor all future "Ehatare affair" comments. Enough is enough!

If you would like to do the one-on-one, please arrange with the Editor of this publication and we can arrange for a date and time to set-up the on-camera interview. We can ask each other the questions that we would like to ask each other and I will inturn validate the questioning with documentation.

Nice words pouring out from THUNDER bay der 'eh? EH?

With that sort of "mouth" you ain't nobody's sweetheart but 'dat be moi opinion EH!?

what does the annual income of the CEO of Extendicare have do with whom you married???

When was the last time you lived let alone visited south of the 47°? (and for how long not that it really matters)

Don't get me wrong TONder Bay and its environs are gorgeous, but as I'm hopeful that you have noticed that what works from an architectures perspective in Thunder Bay doesn't necessarily work in Toronto and vice versa.....
