Last night, I rode the tram going to dufferin on dundas street. When I got in the tram, a dollar coin fell out of my pocket as I was tapping my presto card. A homeless guy then asked for my dollar and I gave it to him. I sat down near the middle and the guy proceeded to follow me and pester me for more money. I gave him one more dollar just so he would go away. He gave me several handshakes lmao and he also kept trying to make conversation. He went away after this and gave me another handshake and some thank yous when he got off the tram.
I obviously am new to Toronto hence the question. How do I avoid this next time? The guys was nice and all but I feel like I was forced to give him money lol
