#Budget2024 is a step forward on non-market housing, financialization & encampments. There must be transparent, human rights-based oversight of this funding so that it makes measurable progress to end inadequate housing & homelessness. Statement ➡️ bit.ly/447kVag
The @globeandmail is very worried the modest rise in capital gains tax on non-primary residences, "has caught far more middle-income 🇨🇦's than expected". This suggests 🇨🇦's middle class owns much of the wealth tied up in investment properties. They don't. theglobeandmail.com/investing/pers…
Thanks @TheAgenda for doing a story on #HamOnt passing local anti-renoviction policy. Downtown ACORN members Lorne and Erin shared their experience with fighting to keep their homes.

New report on abuse of Above Guideline Increases by @ACORNCanada cbc.ca/news/investiga…
NEW: @CBCNews investigation reveals how a few big companies are behind a large proportion of applications at Ontario’s Landlord & Tenant Board to raise rent above province’s annual rent control guideline. Solid reporting here by @Alowishoes cbc.ca/news/investiga…
I don't know how much more anti-Palestinian racism in Canada I can take. Please tell me someone is challenging the banning of keffiyehs in ON parliament as contrary to Ontario's Human Rights Code?

It appears that the liberal government did not listen to…or act on…the recommendations from the disability community. #liberalFail #raiseTheRates #CDB My question to the prime minister here👇 youtu.be/tURi2Mroqq0?si…
Hear from feminist leaders how Budget 2024 stacks up for women and gender-diverse people, especially people with disabilities and Black, Indigenous, racialized, migrant, and 2SLGBTQ communities caught in the housing crisis. Register: loom.ly/M-ZLQwM
What the federal governments goal is behind such a despicably low Canada Disability Benefit amount is to push people more toward MAID than they are now. They want disabled people dead and are locking us in indefinite legislated deep poverty to push us into assisted death.

Details of Canada Disability Benefit program unveiled in #Budget2024 - no benefit until July 2025 - Disability Tax Credit eligibility - maximum annual benefit $2,400 - covers just half of persons with disabilities in poverty
The long-awaited Canada Disability Benefit is "too little for too few," says #Disability Without #Poverty. The #CDB will provide a maximum annual benefit of $2400 and a process of eligibility through the Disability Tax Credit quoimedia.com/disability-wit… via @Disability_WP @QUOImedia
So: the once-in-a-generation, groundbreaking Canada Disability Benefit legislation to assist persons with disabilities amounts to $200 per month. This legislation was unanimously supported by all parties and most Canadians. A gigantic failure.
In Budget 2024 our government has committed a historic $6.1 billion for the Canada Disability Benefit. This is yet another important milestone as we work to deliver this benefit to Canadians. Read my full statement here ⬇️
The federal government says Budget 2024 will make the wealthy pay their ‘fair share’. Economists say the rich could be paying a lot more. pressprogress.ca/the-federal-go… #cdnpoli #canlab #Budget2024

As of today (April 15), the @cityoftoronto's winter #homeless programs, including warming centres and extended hours at select drop-ins, have ended. I've updated the Toronto Homeless Resource List (which I maintain on my own time for free) to reflect this: docs.google.com/document/d/1-l…
The📈% of all homes bought by investors is actually substantially higher. As the Bank of Canada explains, the data shown here, "excludes purchases made using cash only, those made by foreign buyers if the buyers didn't obtain a mortgage in🇨🇦, and those made by businesses".🧵👇

Up very early, doing THIRTEEN (13) interviews with @CBCNews regional affiliates. I like the fact that they are asking 'what's in it for renters?'. Because the answer is: more than previously, but still not enough.
The @globeandmail is very worried the modest rise in capital gains tax on non-primary residences, "has caught far more middle-income 🇨🇦's than expected". This suggests 🇨🇦's middle class owns much of the wealth tied up in investment properties. They don't. theglobeandmail.com/investing/pers…
I love how in Ontario the provincial conservative government is so well known for its corruption that the premier receives gravy packages in the mail and we collectively just giggle, “ah ha ha ha gravy train, get it?” Sigh. Yes, yes we get it.

CERB: $2000/month CDB: $200/month According to the Liberal government, vulnerable disabled people deserve 10% of what they deemed a person deserved in one month in 2020. This is a choice the Liberal government is making after planning this for *years*
BREAKING: Premier Doug Ford calls on Speaker Ted Arnott to reverse a keffiyeh ban in the Ontario Legislature. The NDP has made a similar request to the Speaker. #ONpoli
#BreakingNews WOAH! Somebody got thrown under the bus. That was FAST!
INBOX: Okay, I have to say this is unexpected (to me at least.) Speaker Arnott has misjudged the temperament of the house, I think we can say.
Very grateful to George Carlson MC, Minister Michael Tibollo, MP Iqra Khalid, Superfan Nav Bhatia and everyone, all 250+, who came out to help launch our campaign for Mayor of Mississauga. It was an amazing yet humbling event.

Hamilton is the first Ontario city to pass an anti-renoviction bylaw. Here’s why it was needed. @NrinderWard3 @DanielPChin @AcornHamilton @constvarlo youtu.be/niodvZs8apU?si…
So after all of that studying, engagement, consultations etc. for the Canada Disability Benefit over the years, The Liberal party chose to ignore all of it and solely propose a DTC linked benefit with only $6B in funding proposed for the first year? What was the point in that?
Canadians know: the Liberals and Conservatives would rather help their rich developer friends get richer than build more affordable homes. New Democrats are fighting for: Less corporate greed. Lower prices. More homes.

I don't know how much more anti-Palestinian racism in Canada I can take. Please tell me someone is challenging the banning of keffiyehs in ON parliament as contrary to Ontario's Human Rights Code?

The Ontario Conservatives are allowing unlimited Development Charge increases and refusing to cut red tape on housing. These morons are responsible for an extra 200k on the cost of a house in the GTA and they are hand waving at .14 cents on gasoline. WAKE THE F**K UP

@KamalKheraLib Please grant access to the Canada Disability Benefit to Disabled Canadians that DO NOT qualify for the (DTC) Disability Tax Credit. Or in the least change the DTC criteria to include those on Provincial Disability Supports. Please don't leave us behind.
I’m grateful for @MaritStiles’ principled stance here. The designation of the kuffiyeh as a political symbol only is deeply misguided. The systemic erasure of Arab and Palestinian identity in our political system needs to stop. Glad to see Marit standing up for MPP, staff and…
NEW: Speaker Ted Arnott has prohibited Palestinian kaffiyehs from being worn by anyone -- MPPs or guests -- in the Ontario legislature over concerns the scarves make "an overt political statement." The NDP has asked him to reconsider. #onpoli thestar.com/politics/provi…
It appears that the liberal government did not listen to…or act on…the recommendations from the disability community. #liberalFail #raiseTheRates #CDB My question to the prime minister here👇 youtu.be/tURi2Mroqq0?si…
We are currently digging through #Budget2024 but for now, on the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit: we weren't sure if we'd ever see money in the budget for the CDB, but we also don't think this is going to cut it. Stay tuned for our full analysis in the coming days.
