This "Weekly Weigh In" is on safe consumption sites The Ontario gov. has placed a moratorium on safe consumption sites to develop new safety protocols at the sites. However, there are several sites waiting for approval amid this ongoing crisis, so should the moratorium be lifted?

Some homeowners will unfortunately be forced to sell once their mortgage is up for renewal because they can't afford the 30% mortgage payment increase at today's 6%+ interest rates A couple of owners share their stories here cbc.ca/player/play/22…

This Weekly Weigh In is on mortgage regulations Do you agree or disagree that the Canadian Mortgage Charter, which is a set of rules that banks are expected to follow and apply to vulnerable borrowers, is a useful framework for homeowners when paying off their mortgage? #cdnpoli

New permanent emergency shelter plus a new hybrid shelter (and other initiatives like rent relief) are part of Waterloo region's plan to end chronic homelessness. But ... not all councillors were a fan of the plan. cbc.ca/news/canada/ki…

"Weekly Weigh Ins" are back! This week's focus is on the cost of living. Recently there have been discussions about removing GST from home heating to reduce the cost of living. Do you believe this strategy should be implemented or are there other ways to reduce costs? #cdnpoli

Great around table at the @lispop forum on Public Opinion on Housing Policy. When looking at affordability & accessibility we must consider the building codes, & moving beyond basic accessibility features. Accessibility policy is an ethical investment rooted in housing justice.
