Public Transportation

 Public Transat

Public transport is a very important and crucial part of our city. Thousands of people use things like buses,

subways, trains, and many more to get to their final destination. Regarding the importance of the matter -

there have been many issues with our system. TTC workers are verbally and physically harassed on a daily as

well as people mistreating the bus stops and stations. There’s a lot of room for improvement in our TTC system.

TTC workers usually work long hours with no to very little break throughout the week. The staff or the drivers are tired and want no misbehavior or arguments in their vehicle - which isn’t always the case. Many drivers as well as the staff on these vehicles tend to be verbally harassed by the passengers and sometimes even physically abused. This is unacceptable behavior and is an event no person should be familiar with. 

Subway stations tend to be the filthiest stations among the rest. This is because they are mostly underground and cannot be monitored as easily. In many stations, there is graffiti all over the building's walls as well as garbage and food waste lying in every corner. Garbage cans have been put in place but people don’t seem to use them very often. The trains themselves tend to be dirty and have unpleasant stains on the red seats. This experience causes people to use public transportation less often than they used to - the outcome results in them driving to work which can lead to major traffic issues.

The TTC system needs our help. If there is a disturbance on the specific vehicle you are on - call the police and take safe repercussions when encountering them. Use the garbage cans provided to you and become more mindful of the space around you. Respect the buildings and facilities which have been provided to you.

Most animals are considered to be part of people's lives as well as families while others suffer from mental as well as physical abuse to accommodate our own needs today. Various types of animals have been in the labs as early as 500 BC and have been experimented on them for decades. We - as humans - have been harming animals for our own benefit without a care of what they have to go through. When will this end? Drug testing is one of the most dangerous ways an animal can be abused. These tests began in the early 19th century in ancient Greece. Even though it looked very different in ancient Greece than it does now, it is very similar. Animals are placed in cages, in labs while scientists perform experiments and research based on their reactions. The doctors, as well as the scientists inject viruses and diseases such as cancer, diabetes, or new vaccine shots and observe the animal's reaction to these certain drugs. The m...

School Safety

  School Safety Every young person in this country has to attend the three mandatory levels of education. These levels include elementary, middle, and high school. Children and teenagers are attending these schools in the hopes of learning the next steps and preparing for adulthood. This can be difficult when kids don’t feel safe at their school. Bullying is the most common form of violence kids receive at school. This interaction between students is often caused when someone stronger or bigger teases the smaller individual. This is a very harmful thing to the individual and can impact their mental health. Bullying mostly happens in middle and high school. It occurs in these two levels the most since this is the time kids and teenagers are starting the journey of what kind of adults they are going to become in the future.
