Too close to teach me to fly daycare.

I oppose the proposed homeless shelter due to its close proximity to schools and daycares. This location poses a significant concern for the many children who walk to school and play outdoors in our community, and it would fundamentally change our neighborhood's environment.

No place for shelters by childcare or schools

It is irresponsible of Olivia Chow and the City of Toronto to put a shelter and harm reduction center so close to a primary school and daycare center. They know the issues and danger it can cause. And if they don't, shame on them.

Prioritize innocent, contributing members of society and tax payers over putting them in dangerous situations. Children deserve better.

The proposed shelter and use is entirely too close to the community.

Why is there a push to purposely expose kids and seniors to drug users . We can do better , what’s the reason for this ?

It's unacceptable that the community has no voice to protect the safety of our neighbourhood.

The City of Toronto failed their duty to consult the community before unilaterally imposing this decision on the neighbourhood. It's the right cause, but the wrong location with the lake on one side, and schools, a park, and a senior facility across the street. You don't make any community safer by sacrificing the safe of a vulnerable - in this case two: children and seniors - for another. The City of Toronto must reconsider the location and give the community a seat at the decision-making table.

I am single woman in my early 30s who lives on 66-A Third Street. I have been living by myself since years and I dont want to fear and think about leaving and entering my home. I work until 2 Am and I dont want to be running and opening my door in panic for my safety.

There is no where for the residents to go. No outdoor space or green space. There has to be a better location.

Must be dedicated to qualified seniors only.

Location on 3rd Street is too close to schools and seniors homes as well as residential homes. Please ….Build homes not shelters

Opening up safe, ejection sites is not helping the problem. Lots poor judgement by our politicians allowing these facilities to open up in good communities, close to schools and parks. What about our communities???
