"Unfortunately, our city and our province, which were once defined by affordability, are now falling through the [evictions and unlicensed Airbnbs] trap." -an actual Airbnb-using landlord

With the city of Montreal posturing to maybe(?) crackdown on postering off of pre-approved sites it may be of interest for anarchists to know apparently the Toronto reference library has an exhibit of old posters from the 1970s-80s on display currently including one cute poster being exhibited: https://nitter.net/pic/orig/media%2FFxOVJDpWIAACFmo.jpg stolen from, info at https://nitter.net/dylan_reid/status/1662836679118401536

So long as the illegitimate, genocidal, colonial state of Canada continues its occupation of Indigenous lands it has no right to dictate who can and can't enter it.
It particularly has responsibility towards those people from countries which it has colonized.

This rally will be a better use of your time than propaganda the media will be showing that day.

Join Solidarity Across Borders in a boisterous springtime protest in Trudeau's home riding to demand that the government immediately put a stop to deportations and detentions, open a regularization programme which gives permanent residence to all undocumented migrants, without exception or discrimination, and give permanent status to all low-waged temporary workers on arrival and cancel the Safe Third Country Agreement.

The long delay in the regularization program promised in 2021, the continuation of deportations and detentions, and the closure of several borders including the Canadian-US border, are pushing people to despair and to take even greater risks. Yet more people will die trying to find a better life.

In the context of multiple global crises, migrants are being scapegoated in Quebec and Canada. But, we did not cause the housing crisis, the health system crisis, the affordability crisis, the climate crisis, nor the crises in our home countries which pushed us to migrate.... On the contrary, we are among the most hard-hit by these crises. We call on everyone on the frontlines of these crises to join hands and fight together for a more just world, where all of our lives count equally.

Canada's immigration system systematically privileges white and wealthy people and routinely denies entry or permanent status to low-wage, often racialized workers from colonized countries. As long as this system stands, more and more people will take risks to cross the borders closed to them and will join the ranks of undocumented migrants in Canada.

A reminder of the demonstration occurring at 5:30pm eastern time today.

Text from the instagram link below:

"🚨Homelesss Encampment EVICTION🚨 The Montreal Autonomous Tenants' Union is calling for a public demonstration this Monday, 5:30pm, outside Atwater metro station (Cabot Square). We have received word from a union member living within the encampment under the Ville-Marie Expressway that an eviction is planned for the first week of March. True or not, we are asking for the permanent cancellation of this "postponed" eviction, and arrangements for good housing for encampment residents. Share widely and bring out your networks.

These evictions are not solutions to homelessness and do not improve the lives of people who are homeless. Homelessness is caused by our broken shelter system, the predatory rents and evictions of landlords, and the modern austerity politics of capitalist governments who underfund and mismanage mental health, social, and housing services.

Some members of the encampment have been living there for over five years. After our union helped to push back the last eviction, members of the encampment were promised good housing by the government. From what we can tell, this ended up being only talk and PR.

The housing crisis affects us all! Defend your neighbours!

May this site's residents be successful and may all find shelter in the place they call home.

For those not aware, the City of so-called "montréal" is planning yet another displacement of homeless people.

Fortunately the montréal Autonomous Tenants Union has called for a manifestation in protest

For those local, try to get out there, or if you can't, alert those you know who might be in alignment.

The City has really been on some bullshit floating disinformation that they're helping unhoused people when all they may do is bus them to overcrowded (sometimes full), temporary "shelters" that are places of
(institutional) violence
