The City of Toronto has opened its three warming centres as sub-zero temperatures hit the city.
The sites, located a Metro Hall at 55 John St., Scarborough Civic Centre at 150 Borough Dr., and Mitchell Field Community Centre at 89 Church Ave. in North York, opened their doors Friday at 7 p.m. and are expected to remain open throughout the weekend.
Anyone in need of a safe and warm indoor space is welcome to stop by to rest, have a snack, and use the washroom. Referrals to emergency space in the city’s shelter system are also offered to unhoused community members who attend these sites. An extreme weather alert can also be issued when the forecast includes factors that increase the impact of cold weather on health like precipitation, low daytime temperatures, or several days and nights of cold weather in a row.
