@hfxgov are you raising transit rates to fund a @HfxRegPolice officer to stand in front of Armview Ave for the month of September? Asking for some commuting friends?
Tents. Hotel rooms. Shelters.
They are not housing.
We said it last year when NS reported a surplus, and we’ll say it again.
Investments are needed, immediately, to create long-term affordable housing.
If only housing ALL Nova Scotians was the priority.

I always hear from liberals that they don't agree with John Hagee and Christian Zionists and that they oppose their ideology/theology. What they do not release is that Joe Biden is probably a worse Christian Zionist. Biden, a self-proclaimed Catholic, and a self-proclaimed Zionist, provided political and financial support to a genocide
Today we learned that an Israeli military court has placed Palestinian Christian young woman Layan Nasir, who was arrested last week, in administrative detention for four months (renewable). No charges have been presented. Layan is just one of thousands of Palestinians who are in detention with no charges (including 85+ women). This is part of the Israeli apartheid system that oppresses Palestinians. According to Btselem: “Israel routinely uses administrative detention and has, over the years, placed thousands of Palestinians behind bars for periods ranging from several months to several years, without charging them, without telling them what they are accused of, and without disclosing the alleged evidence to them or to their lawyers.”
I have spoken to Layan’ family this morning to console them. Please pray for Layan and Layan’s family. Please pray for justice. Please pray and advocate for the release of the thousands of Palestinian political prisoners / “hostages!”

My response to US Congressman Tim Walbery saying: “It should be like Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Get it over quick,” and that the US "shouldn’t be spending a dime on humanitarian aid" -- during my appearance at Democracy Now! with Amy Goodman.

So far today we've had anxious call from 7 families with a total of 17 children who are facing eviction or the end of a fixed lease on Thursday. What happens after the 29th?
It's very disheartening.
