, everything is up for sale. On those rare occasions when excellence does pop up on Toronto’s increasingly unhappy landscape, it’s cause for celebration. So here, in no particular order, are a few reasons for hope:With its emergency orange brise soleils, glazed facades and matching barrel roofs,-century additions.

Not only is the site well served by transit, it’s close to numerous amenities, everything from supermarkets to museums.

Toronto could decommission up to five temporary hotel shelter sites this yearCity staff are recommending that Toronto decommission up to five temporary homeless shelters as part of a wider plan to eventually close most of the sites set up in hotels and motels during the COVID-19 pandemic. I hope they realize that the shelter system is fucked, the food bank system sucks, Toronto isn’t doing well & a lot can’t afford housing. Drowning in debt and to deal with all the stress ppl have outlets in booze, substance or gambling. More sex workers/human traffic than ever. They should stop taxing so much to ppl who make under 40-50 a year, give them a chance to afford their housing & rising food costs. We should address pain management to allow ppl to get proper treatment with opiates if needed rather than street drugs. More Ohip therapists too.
