WARMINGTON: Toronto’s Danforth Village looks like hell on earth

WARMINGTON: Toronto’s Danforth Village looks like hell on earth

As Canada inches closer to becoming an associate member of the European Union, as some of those countries have experienced, this country’s biggest city has its own areas that are unsafe to travel through.

While noticeable in downtown areas near Union Station, they are also found in some neighbourhoods like Danforth Village. A section of the north sidewalk on Danforth Ave., between Main St. and Dawes Rd., has become a “don’t you dare” walk-through area with fencing and security.

Thank you Mayor Chow.

Canada wants into Britain’s rapid-response defence club

Canada has formally applied to join the U.K.-led Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF), a collection of NATO nations whose mandate is to respond more quickly in a crisis.

Prime Minister Mark Carney formally announced the plan on Wednesday while meeting with his British counterpart Andy Burnham.

In a statement, Carney called JEF an “important initiative” and highlighted other close defence ties with the U.K., including Canada’s observer status in the development of the next generation of fighter jet.


Canada is too busy making the world safe for transgenders to fight any boring old war.
