The TUHU is made up of people who are or who have been homeless, people living in precarious housing, and allies, all fighting for deeply affordable, accessible, and dignified housing for all. Membership is not passive: we all contribute to the Union’s success however we can !

TUHU speaking in solidarity today with many others fighting Doug Fords Bill 60! Dismantling tenant rights will be a disaster for people who are homeless and will create more homelessness! Bill 60's got to go!

TUHU is at City Hall today - several of us are speaking to the damning newly released Street Needs Assessment report - homelessness has more than doubled in the past 3 years. We must see change now. Watch our deputations live here: youtube.com/live/lCQovk7gj…

TUHU's letter (referenced in this article) highlights the concerns of people experiencing homelessness, as some neighbours desire to push us out. Don't believe the lies they tell about us. We are people worthy of space, safety, and opportunity. thestar.com/news/gta/toron…

We call on Councillors to vote against public consultations for shelter sites. None of us have the right to choose our neighbours. Our lives depend on these shelters, and our humanity is not up for debate. Details of the motion & TUHU’s letter here: tinyurl.com/4938kzf7

A few pictures of today - TUHU speaking and marching in solidarity with several other tenant unions and community orgs. We aren't going to be pushed out while developers pounce on our neighborhoods with dollar signs in their eyes. Affordable and dignified housing is a human right

"The problem isn’t the visibility of homelessness—it’s the absence of housing. And no amount of criminalization can solve that." Despite this, @fordnation's Bill 6 is adopting the failed policies of @InstituteCicero: huge fines, jail time, and coercive treatment — not housing.
National Homelessness Law Center@homeless_law

Billionaires don't know how to solve homelessness. That's why @InstituteCicero bills don’t include real solutions like housing & services. Instead they push expensive policies that make homelessness worse and make taxpayers foot the bill. @invisiblepeople invisiblepeople.tv/the-cicero-ins…

“I’ve heard about many bad experiences for a long time at this location,” Cook told CP24. “I just can’t imagine what it’s like there now, with no water. The conditions are already bad and this on top of it. …” ctvnews.ca/toronto/articl…

Want to send a message to @fordnation and the Ontario government? Help us tell them that Ontarians need housing — not punishment. That we want a government that protects us from Trump instead of acting like Trump. Sign and share our petition now: tinyurl.com/RescindBill6
Diana Chan McNally@DianaCMcNally

Today, I released a letter, signed by 67 organizations working across Ontario, asking @fordnation to rescind Bill 6. We can't adopt Trumpian policies to punish encampments; people need proven solutions — especially housing. Read our letter: tinyurl.com/EJC-Bill6
