“it is very disappointing, in the middle of this overdose crisis when 14,000 people have died, that our current government is blaming our larger problems of homelessness, & poverty, and the welfare state on the individual people who have nowhere to go,” globalnews.ca/news/10456292/…
The latest health data is astounding. The average hospital visit for a patient surviving homelessness is ~17,000. The average cost for supportive housing per month is $3,500. Housing for all is a matter of human dignity and sound economics.
Permanent resident status for all undocumented people without exclusions will lift half a million people out of poverty. #StatusForAll Tell @JustinTrudeau it's the right thing to do. Add your name: migrantrights.ca/email

UT campuses and now TMU have fenced off their open spaces. Cowards. someone tell me how much money the fence companies are making. reminds me of how the City deals w encampments.
“Our lives are in limbo. You can’t make a decision. People are worried about leaving..because they might get evicted.” We can’t expect people to have a QoL when the @cityoftoronto refuses to #ChooseCare for our residents to the point people are afraid to leave their homes. WHAT.

Workers have been screaming these companies pay them poverty wages for hard work from the rooftops. Apps can say whatever they want but the experience of the work always proves they’re lying. It’s time politicians listened to workers and end misclassification and exploitation

The new Canadians with Disabilities Benefit (CDB) is inadequate at best. It is clear that disabled people across Canada continue to be cast aside, neglected, and pushed into deeper poverty by both the Federal and Provincial Governments. Full statement below:

UofT: our university operates in the land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. We honour this relation. Also UofT: UofT’s lands and buildings are private property, activities have to be authorised and encampments are considered trespassing. 🤔😒
Kitchener go line at 10:30am today. Gig workers are travelling far and making good use of the bike coaches. They are working hard to make ends meet during a cost of living crisis. More bike coaches and less punitive measures is the right approach to people just trying to survive
Pierre Poilievre helped create a moral panic against people who are homeless who use substances. Now he applauds their criminalization. @PierrePoilievre is a denier of the facts: 1) Unregulated illicit drugs are killing Canadians 2) Deaths unabated under the “recovery-oriented”…

#Homelessness is a systematized, ableist inevitability that spans across class lines & it’s becoming increasingly evident that education as a social determinant of health isn’t as reliably protective of a factor w/the current state we’re in. This is+will be our future generation.

Woooooo that’s some big ole lies for corporate democrat @stefanizinerman She didn’t “increase tenant protections,” she opposed them. She didn’t “create the All-Electric Building Act,” she tried to stop it from becoming a law! And so on. Lies for landlords and their $$$
The idea that the very presence of drug users is dangerous to families is hurtful. We are not monsters. Many of us who came up a code. We'd holler "kids on the block" when families are around as a cue to stop using, dealing etc. Drug users want to be good neighbours.

it’s been over three weeks and not one news source has followed up on why these cops are still on the job without consequence. yall scared of the cops and holding them to account too? @CP24 @globalnewsto @CBCToronto @CTVToronto @CityNewsTO come on.
Spoke to Global: “Truthfully, if you saw any group of people like that pounding on one person, we would call that a gang assault. That’s essentially what happened...There is no justification for how the police responded to that” globalnews.ca/news/10392433/…
