So there's clearly a disconnect. Needles are not everywhere in the park, or even most places, or prevalent. Yet some routinely state that there are needles everywhere and to quote a Ward 9 Candidate "you cannot go to the park without seeing needles".
I also haven't seen one, and I'm there almost every day. Admittedly I haven't looked for one near the public washrooms, but for sure they are not everywhere.
I don't think my preferred candidate would say that ...
I was in the men's washroom yesterday and noticed a "Sharps" disposal box on the wall. But I didn't see any needles and felt perfectly safe walking all around the park. We are so fortunate to have this beautiful park in the heart of the city.
