A 56-year-old crossing guard, Lisa Dunn, was allegedly fired for feeding birds and squirrels near Secord Elementary School in Toronto, causing outrage in the community.
Dunn, a single mother, expressed concern about having to return to the welfare system after losing her job. Feeding wildlife is prohibited in Toronto, and Dunn claims she had previously received a warning about it.
Global's Noor Ra'fat reports on Dunn's struggles to stay financially afloat while still looking for another job and the importance of the essential service she and her fellow crossing guards provide.

My wife and I have known Lisa for several years now. She is the best crossing guard we have ever seen. She not only looks after the kids but everyone that comes to the crosswalk. While other guards have held her position at the crosswalk at Main and Doncaster Ave, none have done the job as well as her. She is a real loss to the community. Larry and Carol Sutherland

Yes. The squirrels come to people and beg, the birds $h#@ over many things causing damage. Also birds aren't the neatest eaters and then come mice and rats feeding on the leftovers, that chew everything including your home. Also raccoons. My neighbor feeds the birds and frma all the food they drop it looks like a Disney scene. Squirrels eating beside skunks and raccoons mixed with birds. I work by the side of the road often and I saw A LOT of rats on this lawn eating from food dropped from a bird feeder. I think they were doing it for a while, because they weren't scared of me at all. The crossing guard should have gotten a fine, not fired. Work could have given her a week off as a punishment IF she was caught feeding the animals in uniform during work hours. Someone must have called her work. They should have called the bylaw officer if it bothers them.

Or like homeless person who was asking for money outside a store, a nice elderly woman and someone called the authorities for an elderly frail woman and 2 huge guys come to question her. While strong and fast guys do stupidity and even those responsable in the store don't do anything, and with open mouth and dumb faces see something happen and let it happen but children, yes children and the frail are being questioned. The stupidity of everything is the the weak, the frail and the nice are easy to get if some gets upset.

It's just 50 years old, it's a surprise Europe is still standing! He also said it'd cost $40 million to repair the roof. The original designers of the Science Centre, said ''there wasn't any danger' and there was no reason to close it so suddenly. They've also offered to repair the roof, but not at $40 million. For FREE.

Where is the sense? She's feeding birds and squirrels, not invasive species or dangerous animals like coyotes. And what is this teaching children for crying out loud?

Why is it the job of the crossing guard company to enforce a law about feeding wildlife? Isn't that for the police to do? The only thing they should be concerned about is if she's doing her job and keeping the children safe.

Although I find it unusual that crossing guards get paid in Canada. In the U.S. they're volunteers. Years ago they were even older children. I was a crossing guard as a kid back in the seventies.

People out here defrauding families out of their lifesavings--millions of dollars!--with no repercussions, but this lady gets fired for feeding birds? People would be happier if she has to go back on welfare & the public has to support her? Give her another chance, give her back her job. What a world, where we punish people for caring about wildlife.

Feeding wild life is technically illegal all across Canada. But it's one of those grey areas, sure everyone knows not to feed the bears. But birds! Well how many backyard feeders are there? Can't help but wonder if there is more to this story.

Make sure you know your neighbour's well! .. The town I'm in, recently created an entirely new department, with a complaints line, for people to call if someone isn't keeping their house and yard up to (their) standard. It's costing a lot of money to pay the extra people, but "not to worry" they expect the fines they'll levie will pay for the new department. As an aside, they also opened another department, to catch (and release) the scammers, as fraud is very common here. They've had more luck with fining people for having a different yard, aka, wild flowers instead of lawn, to feed the migrating butterflies and bee's. They have to cut it down, put a lawn in and make sure it's neatly trimmed. I think this is over-reach, people should mind their own business. Now, if its question of a garbage bin, not emptied for weeks and filled with rodent food, thats a different story. But a nature loving butterfly garden, should be allowed to stay. WHO reports these nice people, doing nice things... Sad.

As a youth support worker I support her in getting her job back, but if her employers told her, "quit feeding the birds, or we will fire you", then I don't know what can be done for her. Obviously, a suspension would have been better, but some info that could be missing is whether or not the school was fined $1000+. If I put my company out $1000, I would get fired as well.

A person who actually loves their job. It’s not right… The public school board needs to make thissituation better and make it up to her and give her her job back as she is outstanding

This is beyond ridiculous ....In management, sometimes you have to work with a great employee...yes she was given a warning before. However if it's a serious issue. You have to document it and give a stern warning... one more infraction and you will be terminated. I assure you she would have stopped. "feeding birds and you fire her" Shame on the city for allowing this to happen,

I hope they give her a second chance. She seems very loved by the children & the parents. It also seems as though she does her job well. Yes, she shouldn’t feed the birds & she was asked about it, but give the woman a chance. There is a shortage of school staff all over the world right now. Feeding birds isn’t in the realm of what so many other school employees have been caught doing.Forgiveness & a little mercy wouldn’t hurt from this school district. Wishing her safe, happy & healthy days ahead. 🫶

If shes giving them healthy food what harm does it do ? Sounds like someone was on a power trip. Sad 😔
