Yonge and Cummer, yes. Which already has a shelter there by the way. Tell me what amenities lie at Yonge and Cummer sir? Rather than suggesting I write to my local MPP or a governing body, I'd rather have a moderate discussion on the site selection and it's merit in setting these at-risk...

Just as you equated my criticism to a personal attack, it's all subjective and due to your unconscious bias. I have done zero name calling. ...in the end and the bottom line, you cannot make any harsh conclusions about those very marginalized groups as you don't know me and don't know what I...

Hmm... Anti-housing.. selfish... not personal attacks and not a judgement based off a couple sentences on a forum page? When you call a snake oil salesperson claims full of bunk that implies some thought and dialogue is had to expose that individual, not some nasty conclusive thoughts with pure...

And was his post not ad hominem? 😆

From an aerial view it fits your narrative but if you actually passed this site, you'd realize this back path is not maintained during the winter (unlike the front) and it's rather hilly and on an incline. The second you go further east in this shot, you enter a proper ravine with only a foot...

I literally have 15 posts and I signed up today?

When did I bring up a point regarding walkability? I have maintained it being scarce parkland. When you're a frequent visitor, I'm sure you'd know how grim it normally is to remain in the facility and would rather use portions of the property outside to spend with your loved one. Removing that...

And I am sure there's more effective sites which provides them more than this site in particular. Are you on City council? You seem to be very good at deflecting and concluding with "Hey, it's better than nothing guys!" Proper politician speak. Keep it up. "ma-93"

What's supportive when they have to travel 30 minutes-1 hour for groceries at chains that are more expensive than others? What's supportive when they have to walk 20 minutes for a cup of coffee at Tim Hortons? What's supportive when there's not an employment centre in sight and they're an hour...

I am sure we could do better, we chose not to. The city doesn't have a problem expropriating land when it comes to addressing certain "projects."

And it's so tiring to see the same activists who do nothing to support the very cause they promote but mash buttons on a keyboard with a sense of superiority.

The narrow minded thinking that always leads to bandaid solutions. Touche!

Walk through that path for more than a minute and a half and then take another picture please. The path even in your map below cuts off.

Eh.. you took literally one piece out of multiple sentences and ran with it to conclude that I'm selfish and un-aware of others. Fair play. I don't need a view into the property, I live across the street from this facility and have lived here for close to 20 years. I'm not against the homeless...

And what about the fact that the homeless again are extremely isolated from local amenities?

I see you've never walked the neighbourhood, that path literally feeds into an unwalkable ravine behind the rehab facility there. Whatever distracts you again from the core argument to continue to push your agenda though.

No that crusade was clearly targeted at the hypocrisy on this forum, glad your sarcastic post confirms your guilt in that! Great contribution too, by the way, lovely insight on the ongoing debate. Keep up the phenomenal posting bilked!

Vacant swaths of land right next to a subway station, but let's decide to cram a modular housing block on top of an old folks home with their only accessible parkland.

Are we seriously comparing the assumptions regarding property value with a 600sq ft. condo on Yonge St. and it's surrounding amenities versus a 3000sq ft. residential home? My argument for the homeless is more-so that this pocket is very suburban and car heavy, would love to see how you address...

The irony is most of you would oppose a development as such across the street from your lawn.... oh but my property value!! Easy to take the moral high horse when it doesn't impact your community. I find it strange that this development is targeting an isolated pocket that contains some of the...
