Mark Aston, CEO of Fred Victor, which operates a site in downtown Toronto, said they are taking the province at their word and await a funding decision. But the delays are becoming a challenge for some sites, he said

“We’re a larger, multi-service agency, so we can certainly manage the situation. I’m not sure about other organizations,” Mr. Aston said.
