Toronto's decision to dismantle Clarence Square this morning is an escalation in their war against the poor. The City had an opportunity to provide housing like in Dufferin Grove last year. Instead to they chose violence. Clearing Clarence Square will have a ripple effect: /1
Internal documents acquired by @djjohnso @TheAJWithers and @amietwo after June's violent clearing of Trinity Bellwoods, reveal that city staff had surveilled residents for weeks, initiated a media exclusion zone, and okayed the trampling of the sacred fire. Some takeaways 👇
Torontos comprehensive approach to homelessness and poverty: @TAEHomelessness @anabailaoTO why do you support this violence?

I find it hilarious that people who have never not had a legitimate place to sleep at night think staying warm is the primary challenge.
Mass-disabling, deadly airborne virus, or state violence at the end of a police baton. Hell of a choice they're given. Sure hope my housed friends are ready to stand in solidarity again this year, like they did last summer. Encampments are coming, and with them, violent cops.

Again, let's be clear: This is an act of violence & an escalation in their war against the poor. We will not forget this, City Hall will never bring us justice. We must continue to organize power from below. Together we will bring the fight to liberate housing. /5
In all cases, clearing Clarence Square means more people are pushed to the streets. But this will only lead to more encampments in the near future. Toronto again chooses to just kick the can down the road instead of taking real action. cbc.ca/news/canada/to… /4
Others weren't given this option at all. They will simply be pushed back to sleeping outside alone in more isolated & secluded spots. The City would rather rip away any sense of community or safety in numbers than provide actual housing & support. /3
Some folks were offered spaces in shelter hotels, where residents already experience theft and abuse from staff, and are pushed back to the streets after bullshit discharges. /2

Double occupancy is a recipe for violence and outbreak. Please work to make sure this doesn't pass at Council on April 6. @cllrainslie @JoshMatlow @m_layton
As though that weren't bad enough (!!), it seems that residents who are being moved out of 1684 Queen St E are being told that on their return to 2180 Islington, they will be forced into double-occupancy, and asked if there would be an option to choose roommates, a non-answer.
I find it hilarious that people who have never not had a legitimate place to sleep at night think staying warm is the primary challenge.

Both reaching out to new people in our n'hoods, our workplaces, our campuses, but also to those already organizing on similar issues Marginalized people of all bents need to show more of a united front against the class we are actually at war with Solidarity is not a buzzword

Keep up the good struggle, friends, and stay tuned to these online spaces, as we continue to Fight to Win over the coming months. If you want to get more involved with OCAP, reach out to us at [email protected] or by checking out the website at ocap.ca
A note of appreciation also to our online supporters who were able to boost and engage with us all day, both here and over on Instagram (instagram.com/ocap.fights.to…) The organizing and planning of these types of actions is only a small part of the fight. Community energizes the plan
In all the excitement yesterday, it seems we forgot something incredibly important. A massive THANK YOU to our volunteers on the ground who helped our faux-campment and press availability go off without a hitch. Y'all showed up at the crack of dawn and threw down, ready to work!
One wonders who they'll try to blame this one on. In July, it was encampment defenders who were told we were at fault for the @TPSOperations officer who pepper-sprayed himself.

Concerned? No. Of course not. Why would I be concerned about 300 of my unhoused neighbours being evicted from their physically-distanced shelter spaces, just as another wave of Covid bears down on us.
But we need beds and housing. Council cmtte just green lit 2 shelter closures with the possibility of 3 more this year when people are turned away every night! They approved double bunking shelter-hotel rooms - recipe for disaster.
