"It's really between 23 people and the 24th. We can't evict 24 tenants." Les Steiner, the landlord of 1 Rosedale Road, explained his position on the blowup that took the building's reaidents to a Landlord and Tenant Board hearing. Paul and Dot Pang are facing eviction after a long saga of alleged harassment that includes a neighbour claiming they called her “mentally ill” and a “fucking idiot.” Another tenant told the tribunal

TTC art gets refreshed for the age of Presto.
Seven stations will soon feature new wall fodder: Chester will receive elements inspired by surrounding greenery; King is getting some avant-garde lighting; Runnymede will feature cartoons “of diverse peoples”; St. Patrick will hang actual portraits of local residents; Sherbourne’s white walls will be colured by mosaics; Woodbine's bus plaform is getting a mural called Directions Intersections Connections; and in the effort to make Wilson feel like less of a dreary 1977 cavern at the end of a line, it’s getting a bunch of bright steel squiggles.
