Toronto doubles down on failed homeless strategy

The residents of a close-knit inner-city Toronto neighbourhood are worried — and rightly so — that their community will change drastically once an emergency shelter opens down the street.

Like many woke progressives currently in politics, their councillor, Ausma Malik, gave them no advance warning about the 50-bed shelter, which is around the corner from an injection site and steps from an elementary school.

Malik and city officials also refuse to respond to their safety concerns — which are more than valid considering the mayhem caused by the injection site and the fact that the service operator has not had a track record of being a respectful neighbour at two other Toronto sites.

The shelter is months behind the targeted opening date but the city has been paying leasing costs of $604,000 since the beginning of the year. It will cost upwards of $880,000 per resident over the next 10 years.

This is yet another product of a socialist government that pushes injection sites on drug addicts and declares itself a Sanctuary City open to any and all migrants, illegal or otherwise.
