🧵 Yesterday I attended @FeedOntario’s webinar for MPPs on the connection between the housing crisis & food insecurity

Bottom line: rentals have become so expensive, even in small-town ON, that #homelessness has spiked, including entire families. Obviously they’re also hungry

Must read thread on people’s safety, fires, the housing crisis, encampments and the bs @JohnTory keeps stating. 👇

Dear @JohnTory,

Yesterday on #TheRush with @JayOnTheRushTO and @ryandoyleshow, you were asked:

What do you say when $2 million was used to evict people from encampments to bring them into "safer" spaces but there were 15 deaths in August - an all-time high?

Totally agree and I see from the minutes of this committee that this passed yesterday:

With such extreme temperatures & weather, emergency shelters need new criteria for when they open. No one should have been out in those rains last night. 2 many ppl exposed w/o @TorTinyShelters or tents after clearings. Emergency Weather Shelters need to open to protect people.1/

remember when the city spent $2mill to evict encampments and said they were “bringing people inside to… safe indoor spaces”?

15 deaths in august is one person every other day. https://twitter.com/djjohnso/status/1440406980212838416

City data for August just loaded. Previous high number of deaths ever was 13 for shelter residents. https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/data-research-maps/research-reports/housing-and-homelessness-research-and-reports/deaths-of-shelter-residents/

Important thread!!

Hey, @cityoftoronto:

You asked that I do several things in order to qualify for housing. I did what you asked. Now, I have been informed by my housing worker that you rejected my "emergency contact" form. In addition to that, I have been asked to sign a consent form releasing >
