As I said to Global News, it's not within legislated 'Strong Mayor' powers for 15 individual mayors β without consulting their local Councils or the public β to request the removal of homeless people's right to life. It's unaccountable, dangerous, and won't eliminate encampments.

Museum of Homelessness
The award-winning Museum of Homelessness (MoH) was founded in 2015 and is run by people with direct experience of homelessness.
Big thanks @ourmoh.bsky.social for hosting @releasedrugs.bsky.social folks on Friday.
βHow to Survive the Apocalypseβ is a beautiful & thoughtful exhibition. Telling stories of unhoused folks through the pandemic itβs a really important work, go before it closes next week

They have been displaced from their community and their support networks and have now been scattered throughout the city. This puts them at greater risk and makes it more difficult for their supports to connect with them. Evictions don't do anything but cause trauma. Housing Solves Homelessness!

Evictions are violence! We supported residents through an eviction this week. The residents had spent months preparing themselves for the upcoming winter, winterizing their tents and building shelters in which they could survive our cold winter only to have dismantle everything and move on. #onpolu

Facts.
"The decision to close Supervised Consumption Sites (SCS) is not rooted in evidenceβ it is a form of social eugenics.
Closing #SCS will lead to increased harm, including increased drug poisonings, overdoses & deaths among people who use drugs who rely on these services for survival."

People who argue that harm reduction doesnβt work donβt understand what harm reduction does. Without naloxone, supervised consumption sites, methadone, and prescribed alternatives we would see an even greater increase of deaths. Harm reduction doesnβt eliminate harm, it reduces it.

81% of inmates in ON haven't gone through trial and are presumptively innocent because the provincial justice system is dysfunctional. Bail reform would exacerbate this. But bail reform also justifies Ford's bid to build more prisons β by handing out P3 contracts. It's about lining private pockets.
