Toronto Mayor John Tory says he wants to see water fountains and washrooms opened at city park facilities sooner in the season.

Tory's office said Friday that he plans to bring a motion before city council next week that would direct staff to ensure seasonal facilities are accessible to park users as soon as possible after winter.

"We must make a conscious effort to modernize operations and procedures in city parks and start opening parks and turning on services earlier and faster after the winter," Tory said in a statement. "My motion asks staff to adjust and modernize park operations to conduct service improvements earlier in the spring."

That means that many facilities might not be open by late May or early June, when there have usually been at least several hot days.

He say a lots a things.

So according to John Tory you should still wear a mask but public fountains & washrooms should be open earlier. Is he listening to the words coming out of his face?

Isn’t he the MAYOR

Wow.... the level of incompetence is shocking .. FIX YOUR FREAKING TRANSPORT first.. that includes ttc, airport .. before someone starts saying who owns what, IDGAF, i pay taxes, they were voted to sort this out. Do IT

What a fucking saint Johnny is

So nice to see JohnTory tackling the leading issues of the times. Where would I be without that water fountain? Remind me John, water fountains are safe during the COVID hysteria? 🙄🖕🏻

Dont forget he works for schwab.. go ahead john remove your face off the wef site 😁..

I’ve been holding my bladder for 8 years JT

How about developing the parks into highrise slums? The methheads and illegals need somewhere to stay.

Well at be least I won’t have to see people pissing in the bushes anymore . In the future can you please provide portable potties till the washrooms do open ? JohnTory

What’s the hold up Absolutely stupid

The homeless fully support this proposal .

So all the bums have a nice place to smoke meth and wash their underpants? This is going to put tim hortons washrooms out of business.

Priorities are in order 👍

why is he crying about it? complain to the mayor.

Who gives af about water fountains?

If only someone was in a position to do something about it eh.

Tory should remove all bike lanes, and then retire.

How about build more shelters and affordable housing

This is what our mayor is worried about public fountains , instead of inflation, the world's most expensive rent... Etc

How about opening High Park to cars again on the weekends!! There is, and never was, a danger to being outside enjoying the great outdoors.

Great what’s he saying about violent crime, carjackings and gang shootings? Any comments there or we just doing the softball pride covid bullshit?

Toronto citizens want JohnTory gone

This is a big NO. Are you kidding me? Do you have any idea how much mRNA would need to be added to make that drinking water safe and effective at preventing covid and monkeypox? And spend more taxpayer dollars? No thanx.

Anything about the garbage and graffiti everywhere?

The dude was out bragging about a pitiful 60% of fountains working two weeks ago. This is a diversion announcement to crowd out the security contracts scandal.

Its colder than a witches tit

Tory continued, '...once the necessary income verification mechanisms are put in place. The last thing we want to see is a disgusting homeless person drinking from the same fountains as we do.'

When are they going to start cutting the grass? The parks are a disaster right now
