  1. Let me tell you a story about how rotten this neighbourhood is. I've lived in Toronto Center for over 24 years and I witnessed one of the most disgusting displays of ignorance and immorality I've ever seen in my life. About 17 years ago or so I was off work and my then spouse was at her job. It was a bright and sunny day in May at about 2pm. At that time I heard a woman cry for help. I ran out onto the balcony to see if there was anybody there. I did notice a group of "men" drinking beer on a patio of a notorious bar and recognized that they had heard her cries to and did NOTHING but continue to laugh and drink. I immediately ran downstairs to help and brought medical supplies. The young woman was delivering a package and was coming out of an alleyway when she was attacked by a person that looked almost atavistic. Like a primitive man. According to her he had crawled out from underneath a stairwell and tried to assault her, possibly with rape in mind. Being a more formidable presence than he had expected, she fought him off with ease although she had been scratched. I cleaned up her wounds and asked her if she wanted the police and/or ambulance. She said no, thanked me and left. When I went to confront her attacker he had vanished. But, I will NEVER forget the way she was ignored by these men who live in the neighbourhood of LOVE. BULLSHIT. What I witnessed was not dissimilar from what happened to Kitty Genovese. Toronto the Good? F*** off. Their MYTH of rainbows and love and togetherness is a LIE. Their flag is a marketing tool for disingenuousness, hypocrisy and fraud. They want you to believe they're not like the rest of the species. Nothing could be further from the truth.
