North Toronto C.I. is building a condo on its property!!!

" North Toronto Collegiate Institute - A New Ecoschool- A Visionary Condominium Community"

Tell me this isn't crazy. But North Toronto CI, my old high school plans to let Tridel build TWO condos on the property. Does anyone see any conflicts here? Hmmm perhaps this will increase phedophilia in the neighbourhood. I'm sure the students parents must be thrilled by this new addition to the highschool.

Sorry for venting BUT I just received an advertisement in the mail entitled " North Toronto Collegiate Institute - A New Ecoschool- A Visionary Condominium Community" and I'm just a little disturbed that I'm one of the few that see a major problem with this.

Perhaps some people should think about this type of thing before it becomes the norm in public schools. The last thing public schools should be doing is bending over for corporations such as Tridel.

And on that note; one day long in the future when I actually have kids they won't be going to North Toronto. And in case we are trying to get the logic to this.... if public schools are lacking the money they will turn into a public school/condominium before asking alumni or the general public if they agree.... afterall we are just the people that pay taxes. The new name of the school will eventually be North Toronto Condominium Institute.
