Yesterday, dozens of people, most of them Somali-Canadian women from Etobicoke, staged a sit-in at the social services offices in Metro Hall downtown, demanding their special diet allowances.Yeah, yeah... I know what you're thinking... big deal, how much can this thing amount to?
The province spent $67-million on special dietary allowances in the 2008-09 fiscal year, up from $5-million in 2002-03.Thank you Dalton McSlippery.
