    ‘We can’t wait’: Why this Toronto non-profit is rushing to build a #MicroShelter community

    The city says it can’t find land for micro shelters, so #TinyTinyHomes found its own. Now the non-profit is fundraising to build a 10-shelter community by the end of the year

    “Winter is coming up again and people will be outside again this winter. So we can’t wait,” said Donais.

  7. #KitchenerON - Building for the Future!

    #Engagewr has been described as "the closest thing the Region has to participatory democracy, in that it posts projects that the cities/townships/region are working on and solicits feedback from the people living there / using the amenities to guide the ways in which they are doing the project."

    Welcome to Kitchener 2051!

    "As Kitchener grows to become a city of up to 450,000 people, we need a new plan. A new Official Plan will guide growth and shape the way that neighbourhoods evolve and change. The new Official Plan needs to be ambitious and clear in our intentions as we plan for the Kitchener of 2051.

    Kitchener 2051 is about the people who call Kitchener home today and in the future

    That includes #IndigenousPeople, #newcomers, longtime residents, business owners and entrepreneurs. It’s about our community today but also about the people who are not yet here. Like the young people who will grow old in our community, the family looking to move to Kitchener, or the student who will call our community home after graduation. Kitchener 2051 looks at how we move around the city and the places in between. It is about what we will need to do together to grow, adapt, and succeed in a #resilient and complete city.

    Kitchener 2051 needs to consider a full range of perspectives to ensure that the Official Plan reflects the needs of all. This includes communities often underrepresented in these processes, like equity-denied communities, renters, and people who have experienced #homelessness, #poverty and #HousingPrecarity.

    Along the way, we will learn from the community as we shape an Official Plan that reflects who we are, what we value, and the Kitchener we can become."

  9. Is Urbanism Inherently Left-Wing?

    Better transit, cycle lanes and housing shouldn't be partisan issues, but they are—especially in the US.

  11. What angers me even more is that those NIMBY people try to block housing in the name of a healthy marine ecosystem and climate solution.

  13. Some days you get the kind of win that makes Doug Ford apoplectic.


    "I wish I could get that guy's address. I'll send 15 encampments in his backyard and see how he likes it. The craziest decision I've ever heard. But there are a lot of crazy decisions coming from our courts lately," Ford said.

    cbc.ca/news/canada/kitchener-w

    Also: Fuck you, CBC. They were clearing the encampment FOR A PARKING LOT, MOTHERFUCKERS.

    We were literally celebrating this with the KW peeps last night. They have it DOWN when it comes to pursuing the Charter challenges vis-à-vis unhoused folks. Shout out to CJC for their care as well.

  15. "Subsidies for the lowest-income households are crucial, and there’s no way to achieve widespread housing affordability without removing the red tape that is preventing us from allowing enough homes for everyone." #HousingForAll metroabundance.org/adding-more

  16. Developers Ask for Mandatory Affordable Housing Fee Holiday as Permits for New Apartments Dry Up

    I agree with the idea of reducing MHA fees to encourage the building of more general housing, which, IMO, will increase the overall number of available units and in turn push the housing cost down for us. OTOH, I've seen a counter argument that says the more number of units doesn't translate into more affordable rents. What's the basis of that argument?

  18. Legend!

    "Homelessness campaigner Martin Leahy has brought the curtain down on his Thursday protest outside Leinster House after 200 weeks.

    The Cork musician has sung his song entitled 'Everyone should have a home' at the gates of the national parliament each Thursday lunchtime for the last four years."

  20. 🌎 [EN] 🏠✊ Blackstone expanded after the 2008 crisis by buying cheap homes to rent and speculate. A basic human right turned into a financial asset, driving up prices and pushing families out. Housing is for living, not profit. #HousingForAll #StopSpeculation #RightToHousing
    💪 pepaloba.org/?lang=en#asociateecoarglobal.org/en/activist-sp

  21. Finally! Labor’s gearing up to fix the 50% CGT discount that’s been turbocharging intergenerational inequality & tilting housing towards wealthy investors for decades. Inquiry nails it: workers pay double the tax rate on wages than speculators do on property windfalls. Time to make housing homes again, not just tax-advantaged assets. Big win for fairness if Chalmers delivers in May.
