Description
May–June Toronto A police entrapment blitz resulted in the arrest of thirty-four men on gross indecency charges in a washroom at the Greenwin Square shopping mall on Bloor Street. The police had constructed a surveillance post in a boarded up cubicle, which featured a fake air ventilation grille through which the officer could watch activities in the adjacent stall. A glory hole had been left in place between the last two stalls. The police removed the observation post from the washroom by June 25 under pressure from the gay community and city politicians.
