Cops make more, we stay poor!
CHOW, TORY, SAME OLD STORY! As @MayorOliviaChow betrayed her supporters by giving the cops their full budget request, ESNP, @ShelterHotelsTO, and Jews Say no to Genocide disrupted the budget meeting to remind councillors there is no justice with city politics as usual

Three people removed/ asked to leave by secuirty so far, as City of Toronto budget talks are underway. Big focus so far has been the Police budget. This video shows 2 individuals holding signs (I couldn’t see what the signs said).
City Council is voting on a budget that gives more $$ for cops to cause harm. Voices is hosting Love the Way You Lie to say Defund the Police & invest in dignity for poor & unhoused folks! Be our radical Valentine at Nathan Phillips Square next Tuesday Feb 13 at 5PM.

And MSM continues to wring their hands about why no one trusts the news anymore. The way Canadian MSM has covered the Palestinian struggle for survival these past few months should be examined as a case study of WHAT NOT TO DO.

Protest is legal in Canada. The Criminal Code declares it illegal to intimidate/impede a person from obtaining health services or to intimidate/impede a healthcare worker from executing their duties. Bill C3. 332 Yea, 0 Nay. Royal Assent Dec 17, 2021. Leave hospitals alone.
Three people removed/ asked to leave by secuirty so far, as City of Toronto budget talks are underway. Big focus so far has been the Police budget. This video shows 2 individuals holding signs (I couldn’t see what the signs said).

You've done nothing but strengthen the police & the carceral systems that harm poor, unhoused, and underhoused folks. Defund the police includes City directives to threaten encampments, trash belongings, dump concrete blocks & send TPS to make sure it all happens. #topoli
Thank you to everyone who has participated in the budget process with questions and comments - we have strengthened the committee's work. The special Toronto City Council meeting goes ahead on Wednesday, Feb. 14 at 9:30 a.m., to consider the 2024 Operating and Capital Budget.…
City Council is voting on a budget that gives more $$ for cops to cause harm. Voices is hosting Love the Way You Lie to say Defund the Police & invest in dignity for poor & unhoused folks! Be our radical Valentine at Nathan Phillips Square next Tuesday Feb 13 at 5PM.
can someone remind me what the point of having a "progressive mayor" is again
Councillor James Pasternak’s motion to develop a “policy and framework for the management and monitoring of rallies and protests” CARRIES 13-11. Chow in favour.
Hundreds of tenants on rent strike at 33 King and 22 John st met last night to pledge the continuation of the rent strike. Dream may be hoping that this rent strike will go away at the LTB, but tenants are committed to continue the fight #StrongerTogether
With so much of Toronto's public infrastructure privatized - including the PATH - it is more important than ever to insist that big corporations like Cadillac Fairview cannot silence us by relying on "private property."
The court held Layton's freedom of expression was denied - a freedom that "exist[s] to the detriment of the mall occupier's property rights." The public, invited to "enter the mall with money in hand" did not "leave their Charter rights and freedoms outside the mall property."
Ticketing protesters at the Eaton Centre violates freedom of speech guaranteed by s. 2 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Yes, the guarantee applies on private property, and - as a court found in 1986 - specifically at Eaton Centre. A🧵:
Toronto police in the Eaton Centre yesterday also quickly gave a trespass notice to protestors sayung they had 5 mins to leave or they would be arrested. Probably over 100 cops at the mall. Photo is of when protestors had moved to the exit.
