As Mama Sa’d rightly points out, some people simply love to hate.
We can work around those people or rise above them. We don’t have to let them set the terms of civil discourse.
We should all be able to exercise our rights without getting in the way of someone else exercising theirs, and vice versa.

Natalie, a former shelter resident who now lives in Ward 14, points out that people in crisis can freely access drugs and paraphernalia, but not water.
She says even the food is bug-infested.

Toronto’s care system shouldn’t just react to crises, but build pathways out of them.
Fixing this means: auditing publicly funded services with user input, never discharging someone without a safe place to go, and investing in real withdrawal and treatment support.

This particular scene is playing out just a ten-minute drive or bike ride away from Ward 14. But the situation doesn’t stop at ward boundaries.
As for solutions?
Toronto should move toward a recovery-focused continuum of care, where every point of contact is designed to respond to immediate needs while also connecting people to the supports required for long-term stability.
That would be one of my top priorities as councillor.
If you want to help make that happen, we need people knocking on doors, making calls, and getting this message in front of voters before election day.
Sign up to volunteer— even a couple of hours makes a difference.

Human suffering, laid bare on the sidewalk for everyone to see and ignore at the same time.
If you think documenting a problem is the problem, perhaps you’re part of the actual problem.
My $0.02.
Day 1 of reminding you @CarymaRules @Vote4Sad has long been using her social media following to criminalize homeless people. #VoteSad #WhySad

When people are left to navigate unsafe public spaces without adequate support, conflict becomes inevitable.
An international student, people struggling with addiction, residents, and small business owners can all be affected by the same failures.
What do you think can be done to create streets that are safe and workable for everyone?

Confrontation between local resident and people who live and use drugs on the sidewalk near a shelter.
The young man is an international student from Bangladesh who says this area “looks like a third world country.”

Local business owners and residents describe their frustration dealing with the squalor, safety hazards, and disorder associated with people living and using drugs on the sidewalk.
Police are not equipped to root out the underlying problem.

WATCH:
Police conduct a quick sweep along Danforth Avenue, cautioning those who aren’t residents of Heyworth House to move along.
Everyone starts to scatter.
One man is arrested in relation to an outstanding warrant.

My parents lived on Sherbourne Street when they first immigrated to Canada. The neighbourhood has only gotten rougher since then.
Now I’m running for councillor in the neighbouring ward of Toronto-Danforth.
The problems we face are not unique to our city. Nor is the pushback against attempts to expose what’s happening.
I’ll use every tool at my disposal to raise awareness and seek accountability, with a view to effecting change.

A disgusting person, unfit for office. #whysad
I honestly don't believe it. Running not on improving lives but on specifically targetting the homeless. An incredibly cruel candidacy.
#WhySad
A defining issue of this municipal election should be access to public space, including impediments created by the pervasiveness of addiction, mental illness, and homelessness.
This affects every ward, and every Torontonian.
Enough is enough.

@L1bbychessler If it’s safety issue, why is she broadcasting that comment to her larger audience so people can find the exact address?

The attached screenshots evoke this poem:
That didn’t happen.
And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is, that’s not my fault.
And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.
For the record, I don’t want to endure these attempts at intimidation alone. If that means publicly documenting harassment I’ve largely ignored because it is now veering into intimidation of a candidate, so be it.

At least three anonymous accounts have made specific references to my personal address as provided on my candidate nomination form, including the fact that I currently live above a Judaica shop.
That address was not publicly or privately disclosed anywhere else, except to the financial institution associated with my campaign account.
Before registering as a candidate, I specifically asked whether my address could be redacted for safety reasons. City staff instructed me to make the request by email, which I promptly did. I then received written confirmation that it was granted.
So imagine how it felt to see this information posted or alluded to online in two separate subreddits dedicated to me, one of which predates my candidacy and another that purports to represent my campaign.
I now find myself being targeted in precisely the manner she sought to prevent.
The matter was reported to police. I was simply advised to make sure my phone is always charged.
There is a documented history of the same network of strangers identifying where I live and making that information public. I have moved three times since 2021 because of safety concerns arising from this conduct.
It’s tiring. But I’m not defeated.

An anonymous account that created a subreddit purporting to represent the Vote Sa’d campaign dismisses my safety concerns.
Yes, one can ordinarily attend City Hall in person to review candidate documents. I’ve done it in the past and even posted the results. Notably, I redacted all addresses and postal codes as a courtesy.
The difference with my own candidacy is that I proactively asked the City Clerk’s Office to redact my address for safety reasons. They agreed to do so and followed through.
In other words, my address is not visible to anyone accessing candidate records in person at the Toronto Elections office.
That raises the obvious question of how anonymous accounts obtained it. One possibility is that the information was improperly shared or published by someone at City Hall.
This isn’t my first rodeo.
I’ve had to move three times after my address was circulated within the Antifa network, so I’m unfortunately not surprised that it has happened again. I take safety precautions that I don’t discuss online and remain vigilant.
The takeaway is simple:
There appears to have been a potential privacy breach involving information I’d taken steps to protect for safety reasons, resulting in my current residential address being shared in an online hate forum dedicated to me that predates my candidacy.
Anyone who has been stalked will understand.
Those who don’t get it should count themselves lucky.
