The latest story I found appears to be about Winning and HomeSense locations closing bathrooms, with discussion pointing to safety and drug-use concerns as the reason for some closures. There’s also a related broader news item about Toronto’s public washroom situation and a design contest meant to push the city toward more inclusive restroom access.[1][3]
Some social posts say certain Winners/HomeSense restroom closures are tied to repeated incidents involving drug use and overdoses in bathrooms. That’s not the same as an official company statement, but it matches the kind of explanation circulating online about the closures.[3]
A separate Toronto news report says public washroom access has been under pressure since the pandemic, when many facilities were shut or left in poor condition. The city is now looking more closely at future washroom design and access after that motion passed in March.[1]
If you meant a specific Winners store or a specific closure announcement, the most relevant public info I could find is still fairly limited and mostly scattered across news and social posts. The clearest documented trend is that bathroom closures are being linked to security, maintenance, and access issues rather than a single nationwide policy.[3][1]
