1) A couple of decades ago my mother was going into Union Station. The guy in front of her grabbed a piece of newspaper, shoved it down the back of his pants, crapped in it and threw it into a garbage can.
The stupid part is Union Station has tons of bathrooms. Fast forward to today and where do the homeless do their business?
2) A remnant of Covid, I have a small shovel in the trunk of the cage. If I was rural I could dig a small hole behind a tree, poop in it and cover. Never had to but...
3) I was visiting a friend at his multi million dollar golf course, ravine lot home and he pointed out a pile in his neighbour's back yard, near the pool. I've been in the house and it is like a Hollywood movie set from Beverly Hills 90210. It has indoor plumbing. The pile didn't look like dog poo.
Possibly visitors from far away.
4) Don Mount Court was a subsidized housing complex near the bottom of the DVP. It's been demolished and replaced.
The previous iteration looked like a liberal / NDP money pit dumpster fire fantasy. Note the picture.

All of those walkways going past the front doors of the SUBSIDIZED units were electrically snow melted. The installation, power and maintenance costs were enormous.
YOU"RE GETTING SUBSIDIZED HOUSING. HOW ABOUT A SNOW SHOVEL AND CLEARING YOUR OWN WALKWAY.
Back to the OP, we arrived in early AM to see the cleaners wiping down the walls of the elevators with Lysol to get rid of the urine.
As work started a couple of us went to the office to see if we could use their washroom and were told "No".
I bit my tongue and avoided suggesting using the elevators but did talk to my co-worker in a my outdoor voice about the other options, putting in a portable toilet in the lobby because the walkway wasn't wide enough and besides, we'd need a crane. No we decided, a more reasonable option was to go to Timmie's near L&L. Since the tools couldn't safely be left we'd have to repack them into the vans, drive to L&L, do our thing, have a coffee, return to the site, unpack and get stuff up to the appropriate level. We figured on losing several hours a day. No problem. We were time and material.
They blinked. We were given special permission but had to promise to put the seat down.
