"Now John Lennon is lifting boxes in some department store as welfare conditionality."
So true. The Lennons of the world should be free with UBI to pursue the work of music that interests them, not checking some stupid welfare bureaucracy box to "prove their worth" to society.

"One of the things that Mike Morrice, Aislinn Clancy and myself have talked about is putting people before party politics, running people-centered campaigns versus party-center campaigns.”

We need a school meal programme. Kids cannot learn when they get to school hungry. So glad this pmb has cleared its first hurdle! @CanadianGreens
Who votes against a National School Food Program that would save families across the country $1000s of dollars per year per child?
CONSERVATIVES! Pierre Poilievre's minions.
The only party to vote against it.
Shameful. #NeverConservatives #NeverPoilievre

So excited by the momentum we are seeing around #kitchenercentre with people choosing a new voice rather than the same thing that hasn't been working. @voteclancy will be such an incredible, independent voice for our community!

The Green wave is surging in Kitchener Centre! In just the first day of the byelection, 1,500 lawn signs have found their homes, signaling a community ready for change. #greenwave #voteclancy2023 #ISawtheSign

Up until the 1990s, Canada was building 20,000 non-profit, co-op and deeply affordable homes every single year.
Since then, that number has plummeted.
It’s time for our govt to get back into the business of building homes for everyone. #onpoli

Christ alive people IF YOU WANT GREEN VOTE GREEN
🗳️ If all parties had EQUAL chance of winning, how would you vote?
(+/- vs 2019)
🔴 LAB 34% (+1)
🔵 CON 21% (-24)
🟢 GRN 19% (+16)
🟠 LD 12% (-)
🟣 REF 8% (+6)
Just 6% of 2019 CON voters would vote GRN (vs 28% of 2019 LAB voters).

Yes land value tax. Yes public and non-profit housing. Yes supply. Yes upzoning. Yes rent control. Yes tenant organizing.
All of this and more to tackle the housing crisis.
We need policies that take big swings and we need them fast, or this crisis will keep getting worse.

BREAKING: UBC researchers DESTROY homelessness stereotype. Recipients spent unconditional cash on housing, food, and clothing — and saved society more money than shelters!

People often ask me what keeps me motivated to keep working on campaigns and the answer is always the same.
It's people like these amazing volunteers who show up because they know that doing something positive is always better.
Don't agonize, organize!

Scientists have long warned that env. degradation would constrain the economy. While the there have been impacts, cod collapse, water shortages, etc., the economy has been remarkably resilient.
But I think some of current inflation and unease is indirectly related to decline.
