[URBAN NOTE] Six Toronto links

[rfmcdonald]

• Steve Munro looks at a recent examination by the Toronto auditor-general about the problems of Presto, here.


• blogTO notes that, on the weekend of the 22nd, the Toronto Reference Library will host another book sale.


• Spacing lets someone evicted for putting his apartment up for Airbnb tell his story.


• Global News tells the story of Charlie's Friend Art Café in Bloordale, here.


• This Toronto Life account of the life and crimes of Alek Minassian remains authentically disturbing to me.


• The idea of a Toronto city charter, a constitution to protect the city's prerogatives, does sound pretty good to me. CBC reports.

I think Ottawa needs a charter of its own for protection against feds and province alike in some aspects of our civic life.
