It’s one thing for our city’s adults to complain about the heat, to bemoan the final days of summer and beckon fall weather, and for our mayor to ride a sweaty subway during the morning rush hour. It’s another for Toronto’s young students to practically melt in their seats during these first weeks back to school.
But that’s been the situation across the city for many students in schools where a lack of air conditioning is the norm.
Exhaustion might be setting in for many festival attendees after six straight days of seeing several movies per day. Some movie lovers go from nine in the morning until the Midnight Madness screening lets out when the subways are closed, and one cannot subsist on a diet of Sprite and #popcorn on little sleep. But the movies play on!
So when a crowdfunding campaign in London raised $30,000 to replace all of the tube station ads with cats, it went viral. Cats are way better than ads for less-than-prestigious medical schools and personal injury lawyers, and we all know that.
There’s a lot more reasons why the TTC should go with a cat-centric strategy as well.
