Did you know what is a NSF fees? Is the infamous Non-Suficientes Funds that the banks charged. Low income and moderate income people now can have a relief, thanks to ACORN’s advocacy, fees where from $45 to $ 50 now only $10. Celebration is on the way🙌,

Have you come to church and queen lately, this is not Toronto anymore, this is developers land, what can I tell you, is the same movie all over the city.
There are so many things the City can do other than evict folks from encampments as the cold moves in. Our hosts start this week's Rabble Rant talking about a community dismantled and dispersed by a Mayor people thought knew better. #TOPoli pod.fo/e/205e26
This is the war against tenants, the war for money, something so easy to resolve, real rent control, Vacancy Control and vanish Above Guideline Increases @fordnation

Rental registry, this is an important tool of support for renters, this tool will bring transparency and will help to bring down bidding, check it out. rentalregistry.ca/en/on
What I can tell you, until our government don’t put a line to this landlords and developers, we are going to be in the same boat year after year, we need vacancy control and vanish above the guideline increases to stop this madness.

If something non-profits do is to provide safety for the neighbourhoods, have you picture Toronto with out the droppings, with out the meals, with out the informal and formal support that no-profits do?

WATCH: Liberal MPP John Fraser delivers a can of gravy to the Ford government. #onpoli
NEW: At Queen's Park today, Premier Doug Ford was given an unusual gift to symbolize runaway spending in the Premier's Office. A can of gravy. globalnews.ca/news/10412221/… #onpoli
Ford is pushing through policy allowing Enbridge to increase gas bills – all while people are facing affordability challenges. He's not serious about tackling the climate crisis or affordability and people will be stuck paying hundreds extra on their gas bill. #ONpoli
The Ford Conservatives are telling Ontarians that if you cannot afford a single detached home, you may not be welcome in the neighbourhood you want to call home. This is a gut-punch for the millions of Ontarians currently struggling to pay rent, or save up for their first home.…
SPEAKING OUT against the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is NOT antisemitic. 10s of 1000s of innocents disproportionately women and children are being killed! Criticizing Israeli govt is NOT antisemitic! Condemning the killing of 1200 Jews on Oct 7 is not anti-Palestinian racism.

Your @OntarioNDP did the math. We calculated how many hours the Conservatives wasted in the Legislature walking back on all their major policies from Bill 124 which capped public workers wages to Bill 136 which reversed the Greenbelt grab. #ONpoli

Nex Benedict, a 16-year-old nonbinary citizen of the Cherokee Nation, was beaten up at the Owassi OK high school and died the next day. The anti-2SLGBTQ principal and teachers didn't even call an ambulance or the cops.
Nex Benedict should still be alive. Nex deserved not only a safe and nurturing environment to learn, but an environment that actively disrupted anti-2STGNC+ rhetoric and worked to ensure that vulnerable students were safe. Read more, here: freedomoklahoma.org/news/nex-bened…
@CTVToronto Maybe this should have been on the government to ensure people couldn't access money they weren't eligible for. Don't punish people for your oversight bit of course, blame game is better.
