I think that if we ran a program similar to this in Ontario but maybe on a smaller scale it would do a lot more to reduce crime than extra funding for the police. Some people reach a point in their lives where they become a repeat offender and I’m sure those people cost the system millions of dollars in police work and incarceration over their lives. If we get those people planting trees, maintaining parks, building community gardens before they reach that point it would be worth every penny. At the same time we would save money on all of the costs associated with homelessness. Clearing brush(with small controlled fires in early spring or late fall) and planting a mix of deciduous tree species is good for saving money on fighting forest fires.

Peel raised their police budget by **25%** last year, absolutely ridiculous for one of the worst forces in the GTA
