Time and again, this community rallies hard and comes together to help each other. I am thrilled to announce that over $22,000 was raised today for those displaced by Thursday's fire on Ogilvie Rd. So many people. More to come, but for tonight, THANK YOU 👏👏

This morning I attended and met onsite with the property manager and residents. While this is a devastating loss, thankfully displaced residents have been placed temporarily and the co-op is actively looking at the long-term plan. This Sunday we will have a small fundraiser.

"The more of these co-ops emerge, the more that puts pressure on the government to maybe create a better publicly funded system in the first place." Why these personal-support workers started a home-care co-op — by @joshxsherman #onhealth #onpoli tvo.org/article/a-very-real-…

‘A very real crisis’: Why these personal-support workers started a home-care co-op

Proponents say the business model is better for workers and clients. Critics worry it could take Ontario farther down the path to two-tiered health care.

Myths say co-ops aren’t competitive and operate inefficiently. Not true: The solidarity-based structure provides good jobs and survives crises better. thetyee.ca/Analysis/2021/08/…
