Ask yourself why someone may choose to live in an encampment in our city. These are not irrational decisions given the options available to people. If we want no encampments, we need proper, safe, affordable housing. #topoli

Reminder: If they have the resources to evict & terrorize people experiencing homelessness in Trinity Bellwoods...they have the resources to provide safe, high-quality & affordable housing.

The criminalization of poverty must stop.

NO. MORE. EVICTIONS.

Amid police violence and responses from those who believe Black Lives Matter, Sefanit Habtom & @Megan_Scribe reflect on the shared experiences, but also differences, among Black, Indigenous and Black-Indigenous people so that we might breathe together.

The Board of Directors of the Federation of Metro Tenants' Associations is sending around a petition to stop rent for April 1st & to take the pressure off folks in the face of work closures, layoffs and so forth due to COVID-19.

We already know that health services in our northern communities are under-resourced and inadequate on the best of days. When we consider responses to this pandemic to protect the "most vulnerable", these are folks we need to keep thinking about.
