@BrentToderian And provincial politicians too.
The NO votes on #HamOnt city council disrespect renters who need more rental supply. Why defend empty homes sitting idle waiting for the market to go higher to sell.
There are municipal politicians out there who routinely disrespect renters in public input and community consultation, suggesting either subtly or overtly that property or home owners are somehow more legitimate citizens or that their voices should count more. This is obviously…

In #Ontario we are going backwards w/ a SPRAWL AGENDA: 1. Conservation Authority changes. 2. Bill 185- allowing for sprawl speculator led boundary expansions sending land use planning into chaos. 3. New Provincial Policy Statement gets rid of density targets & 3rd Party appeals.

I see it in my mind. I could even design it if I had access to the data. The recent debacle over SC parking lots has me convinced people’s heads are in the sand about the absolute need for housing in #HamOnt. Information is power. Empower the people. thespec.com/opinion/column…
The vast majority of Toronto neighbourhoods have fewer people living in them today than in 1971, despite a doubling in overall in population. Toronto needs to upzone these neighbourhoods to 6-8 storeys, in particular.
No voters are not serious about addressing housing crisis. This policy is not a silver bullet, but like Vancouver, will address vacancy issue and help fund new affordable homes. thetyee.ca/Analysis/2022/…
