Tory and the rest of city council should be publicly shamed for prioritizing a luxury park pet project above the basic human needs of the city's homeless population
Cost of Toronto mayor's luxury park could pay for 139,000 shelter beds
Toronto, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is calling on Toronto Mayor John Tory to scrap his unaffordable Rail Deck Park scheme as documents show it would cost the equivalent of 138,616 shelter beds.
"Politicians should only spend our tax money where it's needed most – not on pet projects," said Jasmine Moulton, Ontario Director for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. "Tory's plan to spend billions on a single luxury park is indefensible while people in this city are homeless and living on the streets."
