Deskripsyon

The City of Toronto and Camrost-Felcorp have used this site (300 Manitoba Street at Legion Road-southwest corner) as a dump for dirt dug out of previous condo developments and a repository for soil that the city has used in it's Grand Street Park development. It is an eyesore and toxic soil has been blown around for years on end. Nothing but lip service from Counsellor Grimes office, the city, the developer and the environment ministry. This is urban development gone all wrong.

Thanks,

There has been little urgency at the municipal or provincial gov't levels to resolve this situation. Apparently, nothing but inaction from the province (thanks for nothing Laurel Broten), the Mayor's office, the local council and the councillor. Allowing the storing of waste soil (with levels of toxicity -- someone told me it is deemed harmful to plant life) within this neighbourhood this long is nothing short of incredible. Somebody please explain why this developer can do this??? The people living around here call it a "moonscape". Please don't vote for these politicians - they won't help our neighbourhood. Also wondering why the Toronto Star didn't want to expose this mess within city limits?

Five months later........the pile of toxic waste is still in a so called residential zone. No comment from Councillor Grimes. No comment from any city official. No comment from the developer. No comment from the environment ministry. Isn't democracy great?

I sometimes detour through Humber Park in the mornings. You enter at this beautiful entrance and get spat out at a construction dump that's been sitting there for a good hunk of my life at this point.

The less reputable neighbourhoods in Chicago are in better shape than many places in Toronto. This is not a tourist town.
