Your kids' CampTO snacks just got a City Hall boost

Your Kids' Snacks Just Got a City Hall Boost

Okay but real talk— fam, you know how hard it is to feed kids, especially in this city. Good news for parents whose kids are hitting up CampTO! The General Government Committee, in a 4-1 vote on May 11, 2026, just approved an amendment to Blanket Contract 47025662 with Avron Foods Limited. This means more snack foods are coming for the Expanded Universal CampTO Child Nutrition Program. Councillor Michael Thompson voted "Yes," making sure our youth are getting fed. Councillor Stephen Holyday was the lone "No" vote on this one, though.

### Digital Divides and Smart Commutes

That same day, the General Government Committee was busy. They also approved a non-competitive contract with Toronto Metropolitan University for partnerships to address the digital divide. This passed 4-1 as well, with Councillor Thompson voting yes. Plus, they greenlit another non-competitive contract with RideShark Corporation for the Smart Commute Online Tool. Again, a 4-1 vote, with Councillor Thompson supporting it and Councillor Holyday voting no.

* **CampTO Snacks:** Amendment to Blanket Contract 47025662 for Avron Foods Limited. * **Digital Access:** Non-competitive contract with Toronto Metropolitan University. * **Commute Tool:** Non-competitive contract with RideShark Corporation.

These moves from City Hall mean they're actually looking out for our youth's well-being and trying to tackle some of the big city issues like digital access and commuting headaches. It's not just condos going up, fam. Real talk, this is Toronto — stay up.

Mornings.live is where the real talk happens on this and more, catch it.
