Need to find a balance between shooting a potential attacker 9 times and not doing anything at all.
You could start by keeping criminals inside prison. And quit punishing law abiding citizens.
Jail is costly
@H K So is Police OT.
@H K The government should stop sending billions overseas then.
I don’t feel safe in any part of Toronto
Everyone should buy and carry “Dog repellent”
Too many words but very little action. He said the word “unacceptable” too many times without indicating how he will demonstrate it in practice.
Empty words. But hey, that’s what Toronto voted for.
Meh..it’s Toronto, you reap what you sow. Ooh “completely unacceptable “. Well that solves it then
Give Tasers to TTC drivers to defend the passengers
TTC allows ppl who do not pay to get into the system. Thats why.
Get Trudeau to fix it!
John Tory needs to resign
90% when I hear him speak…..he says … this is “unacceptable” ..😤😠😡
@Puma Logo I will take the Mayor’s job, and repeat “unacceptable” with every speech, and do it for half of Tory’s salary.
@Monica Pushkin I’m sure you would..we all notice when he is confronted by reporters..the look on his face..clueless AF😁
John Tory, you ride the TTC everywhere you go its greener lol.
😳 🙂😀😃😄😆😁😂🤣
We know that….. how are you achieving that goal exactly
I love Toronto and i took the TTC 7 days a week for many years but the recent uptick in violence is part of the reason why i moved and a definitely a big part of why i wont be back. Which is a shame because i really do truly love that city. Such a shame.
The city is GONE. Just a crime ridden forest of condos.
Police can be re assign in each subway station instead of waiting for a call
I remember when Tory was in my area of Scarborough…he said the city ( scarborough ) is safe..I yelled at him and said…sure it is with all the security around you goof…
He speaks..but his words mean nothing.
He speaks a LOT …. and his words mean nothing.
My cousin was assaulted on a TTC bus last week. This city is turning into a garbage fire and I urge everyone to get out if you can.
The Mayor has now debuted the ‘percentage’ justification to transit system violence. So, we must now accept that a certain percentage of transit riders will be murdered, assaulted or terrorized and that’s OK as long as it’s within the allowable percentage (I guess decided by the Mayor and his staff). It may be OK for those who don’t become part of the allowable percentage, not so OK for those who do! Well, now you don’t have to go to an online casino to gamble you will be gambling with your life whenever you get on the transit system.
Where’s doug ford ? What’s he going to do about the increased violence in transit across the province ?
Put the offenders AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Serves society right for letting them out! When will you ever get it?
