Original Toronto Star caption: Cold and poor: Sitting cross-legged on a piece of cardboard and huddling under a blanket; a man who gave his name as Bob begs near Yonge and Bloor Sts. for the $17 he said he needs to pay for a hotel room. Forecasters said Metro was spared the brunt of a storm that peited parts of southern Ontario overnight.
