SDC's Lived Expertise Program was at Queens Park today to speak at a press conference with MPP @AislinnClancyKC and @WRLegalServices in protest of Bill 6. 📢Join us in letting the province know - Waterloo Region doesn't think Bill 6 is the right approach! tinyurl.com/RescindBill6

"Kitchener’s A Better Tent City celebrates five years." The best model for providing homes for homeless citizens that we've seen. Replicating across Ontario would be the cheapest and most effective way of alleviating the homeless crisis. kitchener.citynews.ca/2025/04/17/kit… @udanapher @beynate @RobFlackEML @Graydonthempp

A Better Tent City operates for about $16k/resident/year whereas all government-operated tiny cabin villages seem to require about $50k/resident/year. Secret is that residents are empowered and do much of the work themselves. They like it. They take ownership of their village.

Merry Christmas to All@abettertentcity.org

📢MEDIA RELEASE: SDC is calling on all elected officials to join the principled municipal councillors opposing the use of the notwithstanding clause to clear homeless encampments. Read our statement tinyurl.com/mve7spdv and add you voice via the links in this thread. 1/🧵

Blessed to be able to join Bishop Kwame & the #Kitchener Kingdom Community Int’l congregation again for their summer BBQ today! Great to see @KitchFire there plus many ol’ & new friends incl. @SydFITHealth. Special thx to Sonia & Phyllis for their prayers for me & all elected!

We celebrated some important victories this past Monday at Kitchener City Hall. And it wouldn't have been possible without the efforts of so many people coming together around a common cause. 1/🧵

Earlier this week, the #KitchenerFire Department donated smoke alarms to A Better Tent City to promote fire safety in their community. #ABTC

If we bought 50 of these units in NL and diverted money from existing private shelters we would: ✅ Give 50 homeless people their own space ✅Have them paid off in 10 weeks ✅ Save NL $1,650,000 after 6 months ✅ Save NL $4,350,000 after 12 months #nlpoli

@udanapher thanks for showing me around “A Better Tent City” here in Kitchener, ON.

I am so incredibly grateful to the Kitchener community for putting their trust in me. To every single person who supported our campaign – thank you. I’m honoured to have you behind me, and I’m ready to be your voice at Queen’s Park.

This is THE David Suzuki! This is massive. Congratulations @voteclancy

Last night we gathered as a community to mark #NationalHousingDay. Thank you to all the speakers who came & to the community that continues to stand up for our unsheltered neighbours. There is hope & we all carry that light of hope forward.
