Your daily reminder that there actually IS enough. There's enough housing, enough food, enough money for everyone to live safe, sustainable, dignified lives. GREED fuels the scarcity & creates a world where only few can thrive. We CAN change this if we want to. Here's some proof:

@Roman_Baber @gordperks @gordperks didn't' want to debate if marginalised ppl deserved shelter, & instead focused on the zoning details that were up for debate? What a monster!! Also the city's lawyer backed him as to what was legal to debate & what is not. Not included in your edited video. Shocker.

City of Toronto process has become a disgrace! Watch vicious Councillor @gordperks trying to shut down debate on the homeless shelter, but I get him at the end. This isn't over. See Baber v Perks (edited). Full clip in thread.

I am devastated to hear that Sheila did not make it. This story here is just one small example of how she lived her life. A generous and compassionate woman that touched the lives of many. Sending love to her family at this very difficult time. She will not be forgotten.

A woman + baby I know needed a place to live. Sheila @SaveWildBees said yes w/o hesitation, letting them move in way before they could pay. She cut the rent + dealt w ridiculous bureaucracy. And now, we must show up for Sheila. ❤️ Please donate if you can. gofundme.com/f/support-shei…

@EricLDaugh This is literally a perfect example of what 'taking the Lord's name in vein' looks like.

🚨 JUST IN: Mike Johnson is dropping TRUTH NUKES right now on the floor. "See, we are the first nation in the history of the world that acknowledged our rights do not derive from government, they come from God." "You see those words up there? It says, 'In God we trust.'" "We're different. We're distinct. We're exceptional, because we acknowledge that right there."

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

TUHU stands with residents in the shelter on Lakeshore that have had no running water for over a week! Absolutely unacceptable.

Shame on @Homes_First and @cityoftoronto People should have been moved out days ago. Why the secrecy? None of you told the public about this. This is how you treat unhoused ppl and workers? FYI @AusmaMalik @MayorOliviaChow

Budget notes are pending, but based on this note in the presentation appendix, we may be getting something that I've been talking about for years: an advisory group of shelter/homelessness service users. Homeless people deserve input into, and oversight of, the services they use!

This Friday, Saturday & Sunday are going to be freezing cold. -24 with windchill on Sat. night. The warming centres are full. The city says it will open up an additional 240 spaces this week at the BLC. They must open it tomorrow. Hundreds are stuck outside.

You know that $200 we are all getting? That money ALONE could have ENDED street homelessness in the entire province! If put into the COHB program, 50,000 homeless could have had 5 yr subsidies for mkt rent units IMMEDIATELY. Instead, the Premier villianizes and criminalizes.

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the lie that that single mom on welfare or the kid getting free food at school is the problem instead of the ultra rich hoarding more wealth than billions of people have combined and getting tax breaks for doing so.
