Many residents have reached out to me with serious concerns, which I share, about police conduct at the peaceful Land Day march in Toronto on March 30. My council colleagues and I reaffirm our commitment to upholding the rights and freedoms of all Torontonians.
AID ORGANIZATIONS ARE NOW STOPPING THEIR DELIVERY TO GAZA BECAUSE OF RISK THIS WAS A CALCULATED TACTIC BY ISRAEL to make it so that aid to Gaza is impossible and deter anyone who tries. We must go beyond calling for ceasefire. Sanction Israel.

Good news from 1440-1442 Lawrence! Last year Barney River didn’t tell any tenant union members about an AGI hearing, and the LTB refused to hear from us about it. Today we took them to divisional court and WON! Our fight continues on the streets, in our homes & in the courts!
Over 1200 healthcare workers across Canada have signed this letter addressed to @CMA_Docs two weeks ago. They have since continued to double down on their stance of remaining silent in the face of ongoing genocide, including the sustained & systemic attacks on healthcare in Gaza.
Stop the unprecedented campaign of silencing and intimidation of healthcare workers, learners & educators calling for the upholding of human rights law, and an end to the Palestinian genocide. #CeaseFireInGaza #StopTheGenocide #NoIHRA 🇵🇸🏥

Ontario govt facing class action suit for abruptly cancelling 3 year #BasicIncome pilot in 2018 after only 1 year. "The govt enters into contracts the way people do. They don't get to change their minds once they've entered into it" #ONpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

I'm very honoured to have been invited by @maytree_canada to join their Five Good Ideas series on March 26! Balancing frontline praxis with effective advocacy is … not easy. I'll be speaking to how and why frontline perspectives should be at the forefront of systems change work.

We worry about providing Universal Basic Income because people might stop working, but here's a thought: maybe, just maybe, with a little financial security, people might actually pursue work they truly choose rather than work to just not die. Imagine that world for a moment.
It’s been frustrating to watch the Canadian govt repeat the same mistakes as Australia. If you want truly affordable nonmarket housing infrastructure, directly invest in it- don’t waste $$ on subsidising short term market unaffordable ‘affordable’ units.

For me, the highlight of this election is that Toronto not only chose change, we chose a candidate whose message was compassionate change. Regardless of your feelings about Chow, you can't deny that the change people chose is grounded in care — not the status quo. Not policing.
This is a curious article. The problem wasn’t deinstitutionalisation of people with mental illness, it was in not creating enough supportive housing to meet needs. Re-institutionalisation won’t end homelessness, it’s just the continuation of a bad approach thestar.com/opinion/contri…
@jackhauen There are plenty of people on OW who are not healthy & are in the process of applying for ODSP. Even if you were healthy when you went on OW, you won't stay that way for long living in extreme poverty.
If anyone would like to talk about their experience on OW or ODSP for a story, shoot me a DM or email at [email protected].
Premier Ford yesterday: "What drives me crazy, is people on Ontario Works—probably 3, 400,000—that are healthy.... It really bothers me that we have healthy people sitting at home collecting your hard-earned dollars..."
this past week, i have biked past 129 Peter St multiple times. each time, there were large groups of mostly black individuals sitting outside with their belongings. I wondered if this is connected to the City's recent decision to refuse refugees into their shelter system. [1/]
