A special report by Antonio Giorgi on the City of Toronto's ugly plan under housing czar Abi Bond to destroy the rare and beautiful patch of green space and majestic trees on the front lawn of hundreds of elderly seniors who are in the care of the City itself at Willowdale Manor Seniors Home.

Thank you to TLN Media Group's Antonio Giorgi and Manuel Alejandro García Cantón for this TLN TV special report on the City of Toronto's ugly 4 year old campaign to deny hundreds of vulnerable seniors in the care of Toronto Community Housing their rightful access to protected safe outdoor green space on their majestic treed front lawn at Willowdale Manor seniors home. 

The same bureaucrats who claim to value the environment (https://lnkd.in/gQk5NXe6 in practise value neither that nor the rights of a vulnerable equity deserving community of elderly fragile seniors entrusted to the care of Toronto Community Housing.

The entire Willowdale east community rallied around the seniors and elected local councillor Lily Cheng on her promise to oppose the City's secretly hatched plan. Her motion last year https://lnkd.in/gMMyn688 was dismissed and brushed aside by "officials" who have constantly misled Council and the public as to what was really happening. 

Even worse, on a property that has always been zoned and used for seniors housing, the City has stubbornly refused to dedicate any development on the site to the exclusive use of seniors requiring supportive housing, joining the almost 1,000 seniors residing on these two City-run facilities.

And if the City's behaviour couldn't get any worse, despite there being a pending November 20th ONTARIO SUPERIOR COURT OF JUSTICE hearing date on this entire fiasco, the City is now rushing to cut down dozens of hundred year old trees and destroy the site before the hearing! 

WHAT YOU CAN DO

1. Contact your Ontario MPP and express your disapproval of the City's behaviour. And insist that if this beautiful greenspace is to be redeveloped, that any housing built there be dedicated solely for additional seniors housing.  Willowdale MPP is Minister Stan Cho 416-733-7878  Email: stan.cho@pc.ola.org
