You’re at the Guildwood Tim Horton’s in Scarborough, part of Mitzie Hunter’s riding.

Every day, unhoused people come here looking for food and support. Why? Because social services in Scarborough are particularly lacking. Only 25% of the city’s budget is devoted to social services in Scarborough.

Dozens and dozens of families live in their cars in parking lots just like this one. 

This is not our Toronto. We know that the safest communities are those with the resources to look after ALL residents, not just those with the means to access the services they need. 

At least one candidate believes strongly that our City budget should focus on meeting the basic needs of Torontonians, including housing, food, medication, and transportation. The current city budget for social services is less than $10 million to feed, house, and clothe over 10,000 people. 25% of that goes to Scarborough. 

Hunter has represented this riding for years, yet the community continues to lack the basic transportation infrastructure and social services it needs. To address this, we must take $116 million from the police budget to cover social services and $250M from the Gardiner project to finish the LRT.

Who’s the candidate pushing for this? Meet Gru.
We’re going to be announcing the launch of Gru’s mayoral campaign at 129 Peter St at 3 pm on Tuesday, April 11. We hope you can join us!  Bring some friends who care about real social Justice in this city!
