The clock is ticking for pro-palestinian protesters to clear out their encampment from the university of toronto campus downtown. Demonstrators met with school administrators to try and vike -- strike a deal. >> Reporter: as the deadline approaches for the pro-palestinian protesters on the university of campus to move out of their encampments, a meeting was taking place here tonight, although based on what we were told earlier in the day, the two sides are nowhere near an agreement. >> We feel like the university has stopped playing games or stopped presenting that they're negotiating and they're simply showing their true face. >> Reporter: those occupying the space at king's college circle are embedded ever with no signs of picking up and moving. In fact, their demands of the university of toronto leaders haven't changed. They've become more specific. >> What we've done is we've honed in on parts of the demands that were contentious in our negotiations and parts that we think the university could easily simply snap their fingers and do. >> Reporter: organizers of the pro-palestinian protest have called on the university to end partnerships with israel's academic institutions and divest itself from companies profiting from the offensive in gaza. U of t countered with an offer to form working groups to consider the request but organizers feel decisions could be made quicker.

Ful >> Reporter: on saturday, the ontario federation of labour representing workers at the university issued an open letter to the u of t president saying "universities should be where we learn to debate and disagree with each other without fear of violence." for canada's largest university to decide unilaterally when the debate should end and when police repression should begin is a betrayal of the rals values we claim to uphold." >> It is truly appalling that u of t is threatening to go to the police and go to the courts. What does that say about the institution? >> Reporter: as the deadline hits tomorrow, there is a massive rally expected here at king's college circle where there will be a number of speakers including union representatives.

to scarborough golf club road to accommodate vehicular parking, transit, bikeway and other features. >> We live at danforth and birchmount, about two kilometres from the cyclings end, and it feels really unfair to have to be in a neighbourhood where, you know, our main street is a drag race. >> Reporter: and here it is. Once you cross victoria park avenue along danforth avenue, the bike lane ends and the speed limit jumps. >> So you're riding along safe and suddenly, puh! You're in traffic and you're in traffic that is not maybe expecting you there. >> Reporter: organizers with danforth kingston for all hope today's rally will push the city to change that. >> The city committed to completing the danforth kingston extension by 2024.

Police say a woman was stabbed by a man known to her before mall security caught the suspect. Paramedics transported the woman to hospital in serious condition. It's not clear the relationship between the victim and the suspect. >>> York regional police say it's increasing presence around jewish education centres and places of worship following a string of incidents against the jewish community in toronto. Yrp says this measure aims to enhance the safety and security of the community after shots were fired at an all girl's jewish elementary school saturday in the area of dufferin and finch. Police say the suspect shot at the front of the building before fleeing and just over a week ago, police were called to investigate a hate motivated incident near bayview and furshire road after a synagogue was vandalized. >> Good evening, everyone. We are in to a cloudy situation and the rain is banging on the door. You definitely want the rain gear going in to monday because it is a soggy one for sure. Keep that in mind because it is going to be quite the steady rain that we're dealing with. 10 to 20 millimetres possible and then we have wet and cloudy conditions through wednesday, then it gets better as we go toward wednesday and it is a nice finish as we kind of wrap up the week from thursday and beyond. So you're going to like that, but let's give you a quick look. The rain during the overnight is one blast and by tomorrow morning, the rain will be very steady and by the afternoon, we're still dealing with rain as well. We're going to give you another look at this coming newspaper a few minutes. >> Traffic in the city may be suffering from gridlock, but a group of students at toronto metropolitan university are ready to live life in the fast lane. >> Today is the big unveiling of the toronto met car.

I think it takes a lot of trust and faith but also commitment. >> I'm feeling a great sense of pride. We're extremely proud of our students and the design teams that they run, like this one, like the formula team. It's a great, great learning experience that augments what they're learning in the classroom. >> Reporter: the specs are impressive. >> Our mass voltage is 352 volt and its torque is 75 newton
