SlutWalk Toronto 2014 took the messages of sexual survivors to Nathan Phillips Square and Queen’s Park on Saturday, July 12. See photo gallery.
Cityscape
Corktown Common officially opened July 10 with much deserved fanfare (it’s beautiful!) but no Rob Ford, who was busy not answering questions about those allegedly extravagant pink umbrellas he complained about at Sugar Beach last week. The mayor’s no fan of the waterfront, but it turns out his bud got the contract for those umbrellas.

Great Hall closing?
Reps from Queen West’s Great Hall are asking for help to save it from closure. On Monday, July 14, after launching a petition supporting its application to the Alcohol and Gaming Commission to increase its capacity, the Great Hall called on local music lovers and partiers to attend the hearing on July 30. Local councillor Mike Layton says that because of previous problems neighbours have had with noise and disturbances, some conditions would have to be met before he’d support the application.
