Outrage after the TTC claims homeless people are a safety concern Toronto TTC
,"How the f**k is 'homeless' a category of 'safety problem' to report with this platform @TTChelps," adding,"homeless people have a right to use public transit as much as anyone else, this is a recipe for harassment of some of the most vulnerable people in the city."
TTC Senior Communications Advisor Stuart Green tells blogTO that the wording is not new, and has, in fact,"been part of the SafeTTC app since it was launched in 2017 and was intended to give customers the opportunity to advise the TTC of someone experiencing homelessness and in distress, which in turn would allow us to compassionately address each situation."
Green explains that"As some have recently expressed confusion about this, we are in the process of clarifying the reporting language on the app." Thanks for your patience! This matter has been reviewed by the appropriate management/teams and the category will be removed from the form. ^FR"The TTC will never ask those using the system for shelter to leave unless there are immediate health or safety concerns for that individual or others," concluded Green.
