Toronto residents are pushing back against plans to build a modular housing development on the lot at the corner of Trenton and Cedarvale Ave. in East York s Stan Wadlow neighbourhood. The city announced plans for two new modular housing developments last week as part of Toronto s initiative to provide supportive housing for those experiencing homelessness, but the plans have already received significant pushback from residents who say they have safety concerns and refuse to allow politicians to bypass community consultation under the guise of social justice.
Sideswipe: March 1 - Daft punk cover band or mask? 28 Feb, 2021 04:00 PM 3 minutes to read A new face mask that not only filters air but also prevents facial recognition.

Landmark divorce ruling A Chinese court ordered a man to pay thousands of dollars to his ex-wife as compensation for housework performed during their five-year marriage. Her claim also said he had not participated in raising their child and barely cared about or participated in any kind of domestic chores . The woman had demanded restitution equivalent to $24,700 from her husband, but the court determined she was only entitled to financial compensation equivalent to $7700. The landmark ruling was made possible by China s new civil code, which states a spouse is entitled to seek compensation in a divorce if they consider they bear more responsibility in raising children, assisting their partner or caring for elderly relatives. Before, divorcing couples could only split tangible property, and housework constitutes intangible property value. The ruling sparked a heated debate on Chinese social media, with most people expressing their outrage at the small payout the woman received for five years of housework. I m a bit speechless, the work of a full-time housewife is being underestimated. In Beijing, hiring a nanny for a year costs more than 50,000 yuan [$10,670], someone commented. Ladies, remember to always be independent. Don t give up work after marriage, give yourself your own way out, another person wrote.

The hope is that skills learned in the high-cost world of aircraft manufacture can help speed up modular housing. The appeal for Goldman Sachs, and the other investors now eyeing opportunities in this sector, is that innovative methods of housebuilding can generate quicker returns than more traditional rivals.
