When it comes to reducing homelessness, Canada can learn a lot from Finland. 🇨🇦🇫🇮
Finland stopped treating housing as something people have to earn and started treating it as the foundation for rebuilding lives.
Through its HOUSING FIRST approach, they work with individuals to provide stable, affordable housing while addressing their unique needs, including mental health, addiction, employment, and community support.
People aren't required to get sober, find employment, or complete treatment before receiving housing. And the results speak for themselves.
Research has found that approximately 80–90% of participants successfully maintain their housing, giving them the stability to work toward recovery, employment, better health, and rebuilding their lives.
Finland has also achieved major long-term reductions in homelessness.
Housing creates stability. Stability creates opportunity. Opportunity creates hope.
You don't end homelessness by demanding people fix their lives before giving them a home, you give them a home so they have a chance to rebuild their lives.

Eff you, Doug Ford.
Un tribunal a jugé que le gouvernement avait agi de manière illégale en refusant à Alex Shved, un patient atteint d’un cancer, un traitement susceptible de lui sauver la vie.
Au lieu de se conformer à la décision du tribunal et d’épargner la vie d’Alex, Doug Ford et Sylvia Jones ont modifié la loi. Cela exige des explications.

Privatizing hydro and removing local voices on hydro boards is likely about paving the way for data centres.
Watch for water to come next.
Call your MPP to stop this!

SHOCKING! Winnipeg police acknowledged that enforcement doesn't address poverty, homelessness, mental health challenges or addiction. Resources do.
You can arrest people, seize drugs and clear encampments, but you can't police away the conditions driving these crises.
Housing, treatment, harm reduction and community support are essential to lasting public safety.
We will never arrest our way out of problems that require investment in people.

I'm far from a defender of Putin or the Russian state but it is worth posing the rhetorical question of just why this message isn't also delivered to #Israel.

Doug Ford just returned from a 147-day self-imposed break in the legislature - and now his government is accusing doctors of working too much.
@fordnation could learn a thing or two by studying the work ethic of Ontario’s doctors.

Sylvia Jones verifiably is a liar. Her lies are documented within the legislature. This liar has the authority and power to intervene in our process to deny life. How many MDO’s- Ministerial Denial Orders has she issued? This Health Minister prefers to deliver death, rather than healthcare.

If we’re running Canada like a corporation it is evident from this budget that the shareholders are not the Canadian public but a group of individuals who will make private gains that are under-taxed, meaning the public gets no ownership and the public gets little return

I'm sorry - after writing stern letters and hiring lots of lawyers, this is the Carney government’s big move to save Stelco workers?
When was the last time the Competition Bureau brought the hammer down on a big corporation? Anyone?
Workers are under attack *right now*.
Nationalize Stelco, yesterday.

On its own this is a boondoggle that should’ve brought down the government.
The Ford government has about 15 of these.
Imagine seeing a report that says it’ll cost $500K to fix the Science Centre, deciding it’s too much, and then spending over a BILLION instead to replace it.
That’s the stunning, reckless ineptitude of Doug Ford’s @OntarioPCParty in a nutshell.

A court found the government acted unlawfully after denying Alex Shved, a cancer patient, potentially life-saving treatment.
Instead of following the court’s ruling and sparing Alex’s life, Doug Ford and Sylvia Jones changed the law. That demands answers.
