Oped in @TorontoStar by @DTCochrane and myself on our research showing why we need more progressive tax reforms to fight against inequality thestar.com/opinion/contri…
By facing expulsion from the Ontario legislative assembly for wearing a keffiyeh, Sarah Jama exposes the limits of liberal inclusion—and centres the struggle against settler colonialism, in both Canada and in Palestine. monitormag.ca/articles/sarah…
Ontario has cut 5,000 classroom positions since 2018. Yes, cell phones are a distraction. The real problem is the underfunding of public schools. #onted #onpoli. How many positions has your school board lost? See the board-by-board breakdown below. monitormag.ca/articles/ontar…
Join us for our next monthly general meeting where we will be discussing next steps following the temporary stay on enforcement of the Parks Use Bylaw at Belle Park, an update on the pest campaign, & upcoming actions and events. Light refreshments will be served.
“Over the last decade, Ontario’s rent control guideline has allowed landlords to increase rents by 16.5%,” said @ricardo_tranjan , the @ccpa report’s co-author. “Over that time, average rents have actually increased by 54.5%.” thestar.com/real-estate/to…
We are holding a rally on Sunday at 2:30pm at 79 Thorncliffe Park Drive. Join tenants of 71, 75, and 79 Thorncliffe Park in support as we mark one year on rent strike and continue our fight against above guideline rent increases being sought by Starlight and PSP Investments!

AGIs have been systematically used by landlords to circumvent Ontario's rent regulation system & generate substantive profit. @ccpa's new report breaks down the flawed rationale behind AGIs, and the weaknesses in the calculation formula. monitormag.ca/reports/rent-c…
The more the richest 40,000 Canadians (top 0.1%) tantrum about having to declare 66.7% of their capital gains *above* $250K/yr (while the rest of us have to declare 100% of our humble labour income), the stronger these poll numbers are gonna become. Please carry on!! #cdnpoli

@FrancesNunziata After being forced out of his home Alex joined dozens of neighbours rallying in support & solidarity outside the building. Because when our landlords with the help of the law, the LTB, our political representatives all fail us, the only people we can depend on is each other.

This capital gain debate is another distraction. The richest 20% owns 68% of Canada's wealth; the bottom 40% owns 3% (StatCan, Daily, 24-04-17). To change the distribution, we ought to heavily tax land rent - starting with capital gains on principal residences #canpoli
#Budget2024 includes just $2 billion over 5 years in net new climate spending. It's too soon for the federal government to rest on its climate laurels. monitormag.ca/articles/budge…

Our recent tax study finds that the top 1% pay less tax as a share of income than EVERYBODY else. This has to change. And despite what your conservative uncle thinks no one pays half their income in taxes.
So how does the new funding formula stack up against these challenges? Well, it doesn’t even mention the teacher shortage, but I guess cutting educator positions is technically one way of dealing with it. 5/16🧵 #onted x.com/ricardo_tranja…
Ontario has cut 5,000 classroom positions since 2018. Yes, cell phones are a distraction. The real problem is the underfunding of public schools. #onted #onpoli. How many positions has your school board lost? See the board-by-board breakdown below. monitormag.ca/articles/ontar…
(Ricardo Tranjan also has this great explainer how much education funding is being cut between this year and next year. Spoiler alert: it’s $300 million.) 6/16🧵 #onted x.com/ricardo_tranja…

A very important report that exposes the impact of @fordnation underfunding of education. Thanks to @ricardo_tranjan for the research and providing hard facts to refute government misinformation.

@ItZmeKatherine @ricardo_tranjan We already have vape detectors. They're called ed workers and teachers. It's too bad that admin and parents don't back them up when they report. Lecce passed this as if we've been ignoring the problem all this time. 🙄
