– - Q. Kvod Rabenu Shlit’a. Recently the Rov forwarded a petition from Kolel of Moreinu Horav Miller Shlit’a to attend a community meeting from the City of Toronto.
It was to hear public opinion about a major proposed government development at Lawrence Plaza of 2,693 condominium units and 1,298 vehicle parking spaces, that would affect greatly the Torah institutions and the well being of all Frum inhabitants in that area.
As requested I attended the meeting, and it was packed with Frum neighbors many wearing hats, and they had to stand on the sides of the hall. Yet very surprising, the lady directing the meeting was dressed very Not Tzinusdick!!! How was that allowed???
A. In truth the meeting was arranged as specified by the City of Toronto. I was given a place up front. Yet when I realized what was happening, as you probably noticed, I just left.
Iy”H b”n, care should be taken in the future to avoid such an embarrassing situation.
