It took a lot of effort to get community college resources to St. Joseph. Rather than diminish (giảm bớt) this with a turf war, all sides are advised to work together to find what, if any next step is needed to continue meeting the educational needs in St. Joseph.

Police have yet to confirm if the fires are related, or identify suspects. These two fires are the latest in a series of incidents linked (liên kết) to a violent turf war battling for control of Toronto’s lucrative collision tow business.
