Met Radio CJTM 1280 -  Gabriel Hilty, A visit to Allan Gardens Food Bank, threatened by redevelopment: 'We don't have anywhere to go'

My name is Gabriel Hilty and I am a fourth-year journalism student at Toronto Metropolitan University. I've volunteered for Met Radio since my first year in university and most recently was the News Coordinator for the fall 2025 semester. The piece I'm submitting is a montage from my visit to Allan Gardens Food Bank. Part of our winter programming, I went to the food bank that's under threat of eviction due to redevelopment to see its impact in the community. Following a morning interviewing and observing at the food bank, it culminated in a first-person report just over 20 minutes aired on our long-form news program 'The Final Word.'

Check out the award-winning submission:
