It isn't just that @fordnation doesn't understand, he doesn't care. In @cityoftoronto, people were still forced outdoors, onto the #TTC, and into libraries, ERs, and coffee shops. The province has no #homelessness strategy, and their housing strategy is an abject failure.

T.O. desperately needs year round Extreme Weather Centres. City's shelter system's turning away 220 ppl a night. Ppl are struggling to survive outside. 2night our Meal Program served 370 meals & a disproportionate # to those w/nowhere to go @SHJNetwork @HPAP_Ontario @cathyacrowe

When Toronto did this it was cruel, people suffered badly. The law prevented workers from feeding people and preventing freezing deaths. ⁦@SHJNetwork⁩ ⁦@TODropinNetwork⁩

Did you hear that there is a bylaw being passed by Barrie's mayor that forbids all people, including outreach-based organizations, to give out any survival supplies *including food*? This bylaw is potentially being passed TOMORROW NIGHT (Wednesday June 21). 🧵

The lives of refugees are being used as bargaining chips to secure federal funding for @cityoftoronto shelters. Worse, refugees in TO's shelter system will now be profiled by the City and "referred to federal programs," meaning — asked to leave. Shameful. https://t.co/hSg7hp8UfC

[Common Table TO @commontableto]

RT if you agree that music soothes the soul! On May 16, Mike Daley and Dan Norman of @TheRedeemerTO brought back the Step Choir for The Common Table community for the first time since the Covid pandemic. Thanks Mike, Dan and team. ❤️

Over a year ago, we published a report detailing urgent actions that our governments must take to increase affordable rental housing in Toronto.

Our new report takes stock of the developments and setbacks in their efforts, one year later.

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:

[Common Table TO @commontableto]

Please RT. We need donations of ball caps, socks, men’s underwear (M, L, XL), men’s t-shirts and shorts, running shoes (especially men’s sizes 10-13), deodorant and bottles of sunscreen. Drop off Monday to Friday between 10am & 11:30 am at 162 Bloor West. https://t.co/1UiKuekYpY
