Now, I like Stephen Mandel, but what? fining panhandlers?
Mandel suggested one model for the city to examine is the bylaw in Saskatoon, where coercive begging or putting the touch on anyone in a stopped vehicle or within 10 metres of a bus stop, bank or ATM can lead to fines of up to $10,000 for repeat offenders.
Come on, Mr. Mayor. I expected better.
