>>> The mayor and chief of police are expected to show their support and solidarity in north york jewish girl school this morning after it was hit by gunfire over the weekend. >> Jennifer: cp tony borce quarter heels live at the school, which is near dufferin and finch, and joins us live with more on what we can expect later this morning. Courtney? >> Reporter: good morning nick and jennifer. This is a solidarity rally, rally to show support for the school community and of course the jewish committee, given the investigation that is unfolding in this area. Gunfire towards an all-girls jewish elementary school behind me here. I can tell you this morning there are several police officers set up just outside of the school. They have heavy security, heavy police presence in the area ahead of the gathering. As you mention, the mayor, olivia chow along with toronto's police chief myron demkiw will be here. Hoping to speak with the chief and get an update on where they are in this investigation. We know that emergency crews were called to this elementary school this weekend. It was about 5:00 in the money, the call came in for reports of shots fired towards the school. What we heard from police, they say they found evidence of gunfire. No injuries think of this. Nobody inside the school at the time of the shooting. Police are asked at this time whether this was considered a hate crime given much of the evidence they were looking at the time. They said it was too early. We are hoping to get an update from the police on where they stand in this investigation. Perhaps if they have any descriptions when it comes to suspect or suspects responsible for firing a weapon towards this elementary school behind me here. As I mentioned, just in the last half our or so we've noticed a bit of a pickup in the energy and the number of people just outside of the school where we are. This is as close as we can get. It is gated off pick when we arrived first thing this morning there was only one crews are and police set over the weekend they were going to increase their presence not only outside of the school, but in this neighbourhood as a result of the investigation and shooting towards the school. That has certainly been the case. As I say, seeing several officers outside of the school. There's going to be this rally. We understand the rabbi at the school will be speaking ahead of the school officially opening for the day. More to come, but this comes at a time when so many people with the school community and jewish community are very upset and concerned over what happened. Over to you. >> Nick: absolutely. That gets underway in an hour. Cp 24th quarter heels live born. Thank you. >> Jennifer: meantime pro-palestinian protesters camped out at the university of toronto for weeks now will be holding a rally this morning in defiance of the trespass ordered issued by the school. >> Nick: the sticky life to the campus now, this is king's college circle where you can see some of the flags from cupe arriving this morning. The university has said the bus clear the site by 8:00 this morning, less than half an hour from now. But again, no sign that will happen. Organizers say they plan to hold their ground and have a rally alongside cupe in ontario federation of labour. This in an effort to force the university to meet the protest groups demands. The two sides did meet on sunday afternoon and the protesters presented what they describe as a counter offer, only on the school to disclose public investments in companies that profit from israel's offensive in gaza. >> Our counter offer is built on the fact that the office of the president has the ability to create new processes and even make decisions on issues like divestment without being bound to a process to begin with. We saw this in 2021. The president finally unilaterally made the decision to divest from fossil fuel companies. He didn't need a process, he didn't need a committee. The 2014 to 2016 ad hoc committee process was not even restarted. The president sipley made the decision, and it was done. In pressing times like in the middle of a genocide, it is a moral obligation to act swiftly. >> Nick: we will continue to keep an eye on this situation at king's college circle and the encampments. The protest. In the meantime in a statement from the university of toronto reads in part, if the encampments remains noncompliant with the trespass notice, we will -- we will be preceding to court to seek injunctive relief through an urgent hearing. >> Jennifer: a man is in custody after a stepping outside of fairview mall yesterday. Police were called to don mills and sheppard around 12:30 yesterday for reports that a woman had been stabbed. Mall security was able to detain the suspect until police arrived. Investigators say the man is known to the woman picked the victim was taken to hospital with serious injuries. >> Nick: and american man has been charged after a wheel smashed through the windshield of a bus on the qew and st. Catharines, killing a passenger. A 48-year-old toronto man died, that other people seriously injured when the wheels slammed into the bus near the garden city skyway bridge friday afternoon. Police say a 45-year-old man from new york has been charged with unsafe operation after the wheel came off the van. He is due in court in september.

>>> Durham police are still investigating a deadly crash in oshawa, this happened after 4:00 am sunday in the glenbourne and grandview area. One car crashed into a home. Nobody was in the home at the time, but police say a 37-year-old woman died on scene. Her name has not been released. The circumstances of the crash or unclear pick anyone with information is being asked to contact police. >>> Luckily no injuries reported after a car and ttc bus collided near the waterfront sunday. You can see the bus with its windshield knocked out after it collided with a light pole at lower jarvis and lake shore around 4:30 sunday afternoon. A badly damaged blue sedan with its airbags deployed also came to a stop alongside the bus. >> Jennifer: peel police will announce the results of a major auto theft investigation this morning in mississauga. Peels police chief will be joined by brampton mayor patrick brown for the announcement detailing the results of project odyssey. The announcement is scheduled to start at 9:00 am. >> Nick: health and police are out with a safety warning about a string of recent opioid poisonings in halton hills. Officers have responded to two separate suspected opioid poisoning incidents since friday three people have died as a result of the suspected inhalation of an unidentified substance. The deaths are being invested by the coroner's office. Police remind people to look for signs of drug poisoning and also to use safer practices. >> Jennifer: ontario's privacy commissioner says she will publish a special report about the use of nongovernment e-mails and deleted messages related to the greenbelt. The ford government removed land from the greenbelt to build 50,000 homes in 2022 before reversing course. Reports from the auditor-general and integrity commissioner found the process favoured certain developers. Privacy commissioner says her office is working on 19 active access to information appeals that are similar to concerns raised by ontario ndp leader marit stiles. >> Nick: south of the border, 18 people are now confirmed dead after severe storms and tornadoes tore across parts of the south and central us this weekend. >> It hit so fast. It's just -- the only thing I can say is just pay attention to your weather alerts, really spill the worst of the damage was reported in texas, coke home and arkansas. The governor of texas as a third of the state -- counties in the state are under disaster declarations. Kentucky's government time declared a state of emergency early this morning because of damage from high winds and tornadoes. At yesterday's indianapolis 500 was delayed because of severe weather. The nasty weather by the way continues and is shifting east today with severe storms expected from alabama to new york city. This of course is the memorial day holiday and as bill has been telling us, we can expect rain perhaps starting in about an hour's time or so. >> Jennifer: meantime here at home, shareholders of indigo will meet today to vote on a deal which would privatize the company's ownership. The deal would see the company take in private by the trilogy retail holdings inc. And trilogy investments lp. The company is owned by gerald schwartz who holds over 50 percent of indigo shares.

She would drive from montréal to toronto every friday to come back and stay with us during the weekend. >> Nick: that is commitment. B3 mom, we love you.

( ) [ ] >> Nick: alright let's get into meal prep monday with a nutritionist seanna thomas joining us as she does everybody worry picky noise have amazing recipes, and this morning you have taken advantage of asparagus season. It really is in full bloom in southern ontario. >> It is. And it is my favourite. Kai absolutely love asparagus. I will by all of it at the grocery store. There 70 different things within. I used to just steam or roast it. No you could get really creative with so many vegetables. And to take advantage of ontario produce. >> Nick: buying local. >> Jennifer: what have you done here? >> Before we get it to recipes, a couple of tips. You can store asparagus like flowers in your fridge. Just cut the ends off to keep them fresh. They stay fresh so much longer if you just put them in a little bit of water and stand them up right in your fridge. It is so much easier because they come like this. Just stick them in a vase or a measuring cup and you're good to go. The other thing is, the end is tend to get a little bit woody. They naturally will break where the wittiness is. You just do that and this is the part you want to eat and this isn't. Or if you really don't want to waste this much of your asparagus, you can just peel the outer woody kness off the end here. Not use this part, but if you get it down to kind of the middle it will be nice and tender. Just a couple of tips there for everybody. >> Nick: never done that before. Alright you have dusted this up with baked asparagus essentially. >> I call it asparagus fries. Obviously they are not ever going to taste -- they are not french fries at all. They are kind of like battered, panko breadcrumbs got a little parmesan cheese. You better them sort of like tossing them in flour and egg. Then this panko coating. Serve it with a dip and they are really delicious. Of little salty, a little garlic powder, onion powder, paprika in there. Of course the greek yogurt dip. >> Jennifer: the kids will eat it if it has fried stuff on it. >> My daughter ate this many for lunch yesterday. I had to remake them all. She loved them. Isn't that good? It is a different way. >> Bill: the coolest thing is, I went to a farm to get asparagus. They ran out. They sent someone into the field. They just grow like that. It sticks out of the ground. I didn't know that. It's like pencils out of the ground back on a hot day they can harvest them twice. They grow that fast. It is unbelievable. Asparagus is so cool. >> Jennifer: we are using all types get given cooked and draw asparagus. Asparagus ribbon salad. I've never heard of this. >> Again with your peeler cackle you need to do is peel that asparagus to make these beautiful ribbons, just like that. >> Jennifer: could I do that actually? >> Bill if you want to make the salad. We will put all of those into the bigger bowl. >> Bill: dump it all in? >> Yeah, just dump it in. What you need -- you don't have to cook it. Sometimes you don't want to turn on the stove, this is great. >> Bill: doesn't matter the order? >> We are adding frozen peas, we don't need all of the fresh stuff. That i, pistachios, ham parts. And then I made a really fresh dressing out of olive oil, rest lemon juice, some maple syrup. Shake it up, toss it all together and it is such a fresh, delicious salad. And cheesy. >> Jennifer: I am trying this

rock ticket doesn't taste like how you imagine an onion or a banana peel would taste. It is actually very sweet. Really mild flavours. Sogaard. >> Bill: you want me to serve up some salad? >> This is just a something different, but there's so much fibre, vitamin c from the asparagus. There's lots of iron and asparagus treaty. Really great if you are looking to get a little bit more iron in your diet as well. So delicious. Sogaard. >> Bill: so pretty. >> The feta adds that ice saltiness. It is so vibrant and fresh. I do love this salad. It is really, really good. There you go. >> Jennifer: and so easy. Like you don't have to wash as much lettuce. >> Exactly. Isn't it nice to have a salad without lettuce in its? >> Jennifer: sogah. >> Nick: so smart to her love asparagus is a summer staple in our house. Where do we find the recipes? >> All of these will be on my instagram account, seanna thomas nutrition. And on facebook, plus videos to show anime governing as well. >> Jennifer: are a genius.
