Why would anyone spend millions on Greenbelt land that can't be built on?

Six developers did since 2018 — now, their land is set to be taken out of the Greenbelt.

Lucky bet? Or did they know?

Just got on the voters list for #topoli election. Had to call 311, then given a # to call (wasn't posted online afaik). Told to press 0 to speak to the right person which wasn't even an option in the menu.

Kinda a major barrier to vote for anyone who moved here since 2018?

The "I have been so careful but I still got covid" posts are a symptom of a society that was told that staying safe was within their control.

Except it never was. These are systems-level problems!

@mssinenomine Thanks so much for sharing this. And (not something that should be a reason - inaccessibility is unacceptable full-stop) elevators help everyone - groceries, strollers, etc! I don't understand the romantic focus some people have on walk-ups.

@JamillaMohamud There are some ideas in the EHON work in Toronto looking at fees, zoning changes that make it less easy/profitable to convert a multiplex into a SF home, etc. But I also think we need to address loss of older apt buildings to new development, which will require policy changes

The #BCFloods have displaced hundreds of migrant farmworkers, many have lost everything. Our member Sanctuary Health is providing support at the frontline, and needs financial contribution. Please chip in if you can and share.

The rich have refused to do their fair share. You have turned your backs on the poorest who face a crisis of Covid, economic and climate apartheid, because of the actions of the richest.
