Philip Stern, who I worked for when I TA'd "Business of Software" at University of Toronto, just started an amazing project. He has put together a blog for Tony, a homeless man in his neighbourhood, at once putting a face to the plight of the homeless in our city and giving Tony a voice. I think this is a fantastic initiative that Philip's taken on. There's an election coming up, so it's time for politicians to brush off those old platitudes about housing and homelessness. Here's a more constructive approach.
