The conviction of tireless American human rights lawyer and environmental defender @SDonziger for contempt of court was a miscarriage of justice. Watch this short video to understand why he should be pardoned.

Why tent cities are becoming more permanent. They're in every city and town in Canada—the visible evidence of overlapping crises and a lack of resources to help people in need. Q+A w/ of @StepanWood of @CLE_Allard https://t.co/rw0JIhKiWF via @thebigstoryfpn #homelessness

[The Big Story Podcast @thebigstoryfpn]

In many cities across the country, encampments have sprung up as people struggle to find stable housing. Many get torn down by police or governments, but @StepanWood with @CLE_Allard tells us why we may see tent cities become more permanent https://t.co/aqYXRfBETC

In a new op-ed, Professors @StepanWood, Alexandra Flynn & Estair Van Wagner warn a proposed bill on ‘alternative shelter’ risks doing serious harm to unhoused people and will undermine Charter rights. Bill 45 will be debated in the BC legislature tomorrow. https://t.co/zoY161wHzL

The second event, happening Nov 2, will launch a report from Prof Flynn and @NBlomley that focuses on the belongings of precariously housed people, analyzing the multiple laws and regulations that govern people and their personal property.

We have two report launch events this fall related to homelessness and encampments. The first, on Oct 26, marks the launch of @StepanWood's report on how BC courts decide requests for injunctions to remove homeless encampments from publicly-owned land.

Yesterday @SaraGhebremusse gave a speech to end all speeches at her @AllardLaw farewell. She answered a question raised at April faculty council on why she’s leaving. She did it to help those of us who remain & I hope Allard senior leadership heard it. #WOC #academia @ubcprez
