Hands off renters rights! ✊Join tenants from across Ontario for #NationalHousingDay2025 for a march from FRPO’s head office (the main landlord lobby behind Bill 60) at 11AM (67 Yonge Street) to Queens Park (111 Wellesley St E).
This CBC story highlights Ontario's refusal to commit to not clawing back the #CDB. It is not right to even consider balancing the books using federal funds meant for Ontario's most vulnerable people. #ODSP recipients can't afford to wait any longer. https://t.co/d3vuqCcONf
My op-ed for @TorontoStar: when it comes to encampments, @fordnation is looking south of the border when he should be looking west. Ontario is importing failed American policies to punish homelessness, while Manitoba is doing what works: housing people. https://t.co/lMcveKlmJN

5,000 affordable homes at risk: Ford government rolled back mandates for dozens of Toronto properties on election call eve https://t.co/RD7AwAtmgv via @torontostar
This is why our affordable housing crisis will take a generation to address. Provincial political parties need to get serious by ensuring every new development that benefits from being close to transit has a % of affordable housing.
@fordnation genuine question: Why is the province overriding municipalities’ affordable housing goals in the face of a housing affordability crisis? https://t.co/Q3yc0ZxfAL
Have you joined the campaign to make sure that the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit gets put into place? With parliament paused & fed election looming, the #CDB is at risk. The PM and federal decision-makers must urgently #GuaranteeTheCDB. Send a letter today! https://t.co/ZtmTBnuQdH
Anatomy of a rent strike: These tenants lost their case at the Landlord and Tenant Board — but they're not done fighting https://t.co/brTkdGyWk7 via @torontostar
