The committee will vote later this week on introducing three new fees: $2 to swim in the city’s outdoor pools, $2 to visit Riverdale Farm and a yet-to-be determined fee to check out a DVD from the Toronto Public Library.“To start charging kids for swimming, for books, for movies, for whatever, it constitutes a war on children in this city,” Councillor Adam Vaughan told reporters. “As far as I’m concerned Toronto’s kids count and if this council doesn’t have the courage to tax a car where does it get the gumption to start taxing kids?
“Is that what this city has come down to? We’re going to ding kids because we’re afraid to tax adults?”
