We call that "slavery". 75 human beings are being sold for labor.
The tiny nation of Palau, where two seasons of Survivor were filmed, has agreed to take 75 migrants for $7.5 million. They have not been charged with crimes and will be put to work filling labor shortages. Now you really are on Survivor.

8 yrs ago, I pitched @WoodGreenDotOrg on a study aimed at reviving neighbourhood retail. 7 yrs ago, w @CheryllCase, @Diane_Dyson & others, we published it. Now, thanks to @CityPlanTO & organizing by @anotherglassbox & allies, neigbourhood retail is legal! https://t.co/Q5hH5N7qqn
In the end, we won. Despite the compromises, neighbourhood retail has been re-legalized in Toronto.

This is not business as usual. My new UN report, From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide, is out today. It shows how corporations have fueled and legitimised the destruction of Palestine. Genocide, it would seem, is profitable. This cannot continue, accountability must

A UN report names companies complicit in Israel’s war and genocide on Gaza, including US giants and firms from China to Mexico. Who are they? https://t.co/CW1FNJNAlW

Having stable housing that is in one's means is crucial for a person's wellbeing and life goals. SHHR's founding member Shauna MacKinnon is an example of this. Endorse our campaign and call on the feds for greater investments in social housing! https://t.co/i6cXuUb7dS
