[URBAN NOTE] Six Toronto links: street art, journalism, police, Cheri DiNovo, transit at Dundas West

[rfmcdonald]

• CBC notes that the Yonge and Dundas street artist scene is closing down under city regulations, including permits.


• Emily Mathieu talks about how she conducts her journalism with some of Toronto's most marginalized as subjects.


• The Globe and Mail notes the local controversy over having police officers permanently stationed in schools.


• The idea that police who actively undermine the Special Investigations Unit should be seriously punished seems obvious.
  
• Veteran NDP politican and LGBTQ rights advocate Cheri DiNovo is leaving politics to become a minister in church.


• Finally, the Dundas West TTC station will be connected to the GO Transit hub less than 300 metres away!
