The adults are the prime users and the computers all always busy, the media area it is hard to find a chair most times, there are people amongst the stacks and DVD shelves. I am a writer, amongst other things, and order many books that I pick up there. There are many more reasons that I could mention but I think you get my point that these cuts are not investigated adequately and rationally thought out I see that 39 branches will be up for cuts and interestingly, so I read, many are in the poorer areas and the most busy! This is FORD's logical ill-logic. Thank you for hearing my feedback. Good luck and Best Regards, John Warren #22 - 494 Avenue Rd M4V2J5 file://C:\Documents and Settings\nmarshall\Local Settings\Temp\XPgrpwise\4E9DF233... 21110/2011 Proposed Ltbrary reducttons ~LtPage I of!

  • “Mr. Ford Risks Alienating His Key Supporters: Both the Business Community and Fellow Conservatives
    Queen’s Park Today – Daily Report November 2, 2020 Quotation of the day “Mr. Ford risks alienating his key supporters: both the business community and fellow conservatives. And Mr. Kenney, experts warn, could quickly set off a public-health disaster if the situation gets out of control.” The Globe and Mail compares Ontario and Alberta's pandemic responses. While Premier Jason ​ ​ ​ ​ Kenney has been criticized for a lighter-touch approach, Premier Doug Ford may be pivoting to ​ ​ ​ Kenney's playbook, asking health officials to draft a plan to ease restrictions in hot spots. Today at Queen’s Park Written by Sabrina Nanji On the schedule The house reconvenes at 9 a.m. for private members’ business; on this morning's docket is second reading of NDP MPP Jeff Burch's Bill 164, Protecting Vulnerable Persons in ​ ​ ​ ​ Supportive Living Accommodation Act. Burch's bill would establish a licensing system for operators of supportive living settings such as nursing homes and children's residences. Bill 202, Soldiers' Aid Commission Act — which shakes up the commission's operations and ​ reporting requirements — was referred back to the house from committee last week and is expected to be called for third reading this afternoon. With a handful of government bills currently at the committee stage, Bill 213 and Bill 207 are ​ ​ ​ ​ the only other ones that could be up for debate today. Bill 213, at second reading, is the ​ ​ red-tape reduction legislation that also gives degree-granting powers and university status to Charles McVety's Canada Christian College. Bill 207 is now back from committee study and ​ ​ ​ poised for third reading; it would align provincial family law with recent federal changes.

  • News Release May 25, 2020 Councillors Welcome New Bike
    News Release May 25, 2020 Councillors welcome new bike lanes along Bloor and University as part of City’s COVID-19 Response Toronto City Councillors Joe Cressy (Spadina-Fort York), Mike Layton (University-Rosedale), and Kristyn Wong-Tam (Toronto Centre) welcomed tHe announcement of new separated bike lanes tHis morning along Bloor Street and University Avenue, as part of tHe City’s ActiveTO program. THese bike lanes will make it easier for residents and front-line workers to cycle to work and practice pHysical distancing. As we begin to transition to recovery in Toronto and more businesses and workplaces open back up, How we will get around is a pressing challenge. For safe pHysical distancing we need to create alternative and safe metHods of transportation. Switching to driving isn’t an option for many, and even if it was, tHe resulting gridlock will grind traffic to a Halt, strangling our city and economy. It’s time for a new approach. Bike lanes on University Avenue (tHrougH Queen’s Park Crescent) and on Bloor Street will provide relief to two subway lines, creating more space on tHe subway for tHose wHo need to ride transit, and offering a new cycling option tHat is safe and uses our limited road space as efficiently as possible to move tHe most people. THe new separated bike lanes on tHese routes will connect cyclists to many of tHe area’s Hospitals and HealtH care facilities. Doctors for Safe Cycling, representing many pHysicians from downtown Hospitals, issued a letter earlier tHis montH asking for protected bike lanes, so tHat HealtH care workers, clients, and otHers can commute safely to tHe Hospital district by bike.

  • October 6, 2017 TTC’S New Bus Service Aimed at Seniors
    ww The East York BITE OF THE PAST n Apple Festival ushers OBSERVER in the fall Page 8 Serving our community since 1972 www.torontoobserver.ca Friday, October 6, 2017 TTC’s new bus service aimed at seniors By NICOLE REIS The Observer East York resident Del Hursey, 71, is a fan of the new Community Bus service. She says she likes it because she doesn’t have to take as many bus transfers to get to where she needs to go. “Not too many people know about this ser- vice,” said Hursey, who recently used the Com- munity Bus to get from No Frills on Victoria Park Avenue to Shoppers World on the Danforth. “It’s convenient.” The TTC began its nine-month Community Bus pilot program along two routes this month. It’s designed to connect senior citizens and Wheel-Trans customers along the Lawrence Manor 400 and East York 404 routes by offering door-to-door service to shopping centres, com- munity centres, hospitals and seniors’ centres. “The pilot is part of a 10-year Wheel-Trans strategy aimed at transforming the way acces- sible public-transit services are delivered,” TTC spokesperson Donna Harris said in an email. “The TTC’s goal is to provide customers with increased flexibility and spontaneity.” Seniors who have tried out the service have mixed reactions. Philomena Mcbolin, 94, uses a walker and says she doesn’t like the change in bus stop lo- cations that require her to walk to the opposite side of the plaza to catch her bus home.

  • Resident Association Letter of Support for a Temporary Bikeway on Yonge This Summer
    Resident Association letter of support for a temporary bikeway on Yonge this summer To: Mayor John Tory and Councillors Josh Matlow, Jaye Robinson, Mike Colle, Mike Layton CC: Eileen de Villa (Chief Medical Officer of Health), Barbara Gray (General Manager, Transportation Services), Saad Rafi (Office of the Recovery and Rebuild) We ask you to urgently implement a temporary bikeway on Yonge St in Midtown by this summer. ​ There is no doubt that COVID-19 has changed the way we live. As the city re-opens, we have concerns about our ability to get around safely, especially along major transit corridors, where physical distancing will be challenging on subways and buses. In Midtown, before the pandemic, 450,000 people used the Line 1 Yonge subway. During the reopening, if even a fraction of people who used transit opt for cars, our roadways would seize. As Mayor Tory has said, “we need a safety valve for transit.” And in Midtown, that means a bikeway on Yonge Street, installed urgently by this summer. A bikeway on Yonge will relieve pressure on the Yonge subway and provide people with a safe alternative to transit, will offer an affordable and healthy way to get around, and will help local businesses recover by bringing more customers to street level. In Midtown, pre-pandemic, the majority of residents travelled by transit and active transportation, rather than by car. A safe, protected bikeway on Yonge will encourage people to transition to cycling and free up capacity on the subway and buses for those who have no alternative. There is ample room for a protected bikeway in Midtown.

  • (In)Equity in Active Transportation Planning
    (In)Equity in Active Transportation Planning: Toronto’s Overlooked Inner Suburbs by Mohammed Mohith Supervised by Professor Liette Gilbert A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies, York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada July 2019 Abstract Active transportation modes in North America are often accounted as ‘white strips of gentrification’ as advocacy for walking and bicycle infrastructure is characterized as a manifestation of privilege (Mirk, 2009). Such concerns usually arise from complex cultural, historical and political currents influencing urban politics and policies. Policies and investments make the urban amenities and facilities easier or harder to access and have a huge impact on the lives of the city’s population depending on their social and spatial status. Unequal distribution of transportation investments due to lack of fair access to participate in the planning process is not uncommon in Canadian cities -- and in almost all cases lead to inequality in mobility benefits. Decisions of transit infrastructure priorities in Toronto historically and politically tend to favour affluent and influential communities. The goals, preferences and strategies of active transportation planning for Toronto, therefore, is worth a critical discussion and engagement. If the benefits of active transportation investments are to be fairly distributed across the city and among all users, equity will have to be comprehensively addressed in the planning process. The goal of this research paper is to evaluate Toronto’s current initiatives in active transportation planning in terms of social and spatial equities and to bring forward discrepancies in practices to outline relevant strategic directions.
