🧵1/These are net new spaces that will offer a positive impact on the community - not an expansion of any program. Both projects have been approved through a formal RFP Process with the City of London.
Highly Supportive housing is being touted as “signs of promise and progress” in #LdnOnt. Drive or walk by the House of Hope at 362 Dundas St. Stop in at the local businesses and ask them how the past year has been? Where is the evaluation prior to expansion? 644-646 Huron St?

🚨 Doug Ford has released a new encampment plan to criminalize people for not having a home. His plan will hurt people who are already suffering, cost taxpayers millions, and make the homeless crisis worse. ✅ Send an urgent message to your MPP now ⬇️

From @abacusdataca: 40% of Ontarians oppose the use of the Notwithstanding Clause to clear encampments while just 12% strongly agree with it. Overall, 69% of Ontarians are opposed, neutral, or unsure. Just 1 in 5 @fordnation supporters strongly agree with the use of the Clause.
