While she wasn’t surprised by what happened, Corriveau said it was still very concerning. “It’s not really the safest (area), especially not at night,” he told CTV News Toronto. “I wouldn’t really think there would be a shooting, I guess. But other bad things usually happen around here.” “I’m a little worried about going back to this building because I don’t want to end up in the same situation,” Corriveau added. Other residents have called on management to provide more security, saying they do not feel safe staying in the building. “I’m kind of tired of TCHC not doing a better job of providing a safe environment,” said one resident. – with files from CTV News Toronto’s Jon Woodward
