At @CHRA_ACHRU this week I presented that we won't truly end homelessness without: 1) Decolonization/Landback 2) A guaranteed minimum income 3) Rent controls 4) Public housing Is it too depressing or very necessary to name these aspirational but essential positions?

This is either bullshit or continued incompetence - likely both. Any other municipality would have announced some recovery plans by Week 3, Hamilton City Council is instead entering their third week of recessed meetings. #yhmcc #HamOny

January is the hardest month for survival for poor and unhoused people. Not just because of the cold, but because people on social assistance have to wait six weeks in between cheques — ≈two weeks more than any other month. If you see mutual aid requests, please be generous.

#OPINION | Raising social assistance rates part of homelessness solution thespec.com/opinion/contri… Single people without paid employment on Ontario Works have been struggling to survive on $733 per month for food, shelter and everything else since 2018, Sally Palmer writes.
This change will lead to the deaths of sick and disabled people across Ontario. We need a government that governs with compassion and love, not contempt for people who don't have money to pay for healthcare. There is no reason for this much political violence.
