Take Action on NationalHousing Day
We're calling on the government to urgently accelerate their response to the housing and homelessness crisis.
RT @MattJDever
@CQualtro HOW? Please tell me where in this country there is BOTH Affordable AND Accessible? Seriously? What does affordable mean to you? Does it mean $540 which is all that #ODSP gives us in Ont for “shelter allowance”. so much talk & almost no action! #DoSomething #NationalHousingDay

Our National Housing Strategy is creating more accessible housing so that persons with disabilities can live safely and independently within their communities. That’s how we’re going to ensure everyone has a safe, affordable and accessible place to call home.

Leaving the hospital this is what we’re seeing outside with people having nowhere else to go. We need every level of government to end homelessness as a matter of human rights and health. #NationalHousingDay https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1595189697210351618

Similar scenes are popping up not just in the downtown of big cities, but also the suburbs and small towns. All levels of government do indeed need to engage on a crisis footing.

Poor #SocialHousing kills, as the death of Awaab Ishak shows:
The link between poor housing conditions & ill health was proven decades ago, so why are tenants still being blamed? | Letters, @guardian

It's #NationalHousingDay.
Just a gentle reminder that the average life expectancy for people experiencing homelessness in Canada is still 34-47 years old.
Housing
literally
saves
lives

It's amazing how organized cities are when it comes to harassing unhoused people. They pay for people who find camps, cops to threaten people, trash trucks, power washers, lawyers, + "social workers".
They can't figure out housing or even giving ppl tents so they don't die tho.

Housing is a human right.
In AB, where we have a $13B budget surplus, it's winter, people are dying in the streets, it is truly reprehensible to allow this.

It's #NationalHousingDay in Canada.
National Housing Day started in 2000, two years after a Toronto advocacy group declared homelessness a state of emergency.
This National Housing Day, learn more about how the crisis is impacting women, gender-diverse folks, Indigenous women, girls and Two-Spirit peoples by reading the two Human Rights Claims we filed to the Federal Housing Advocate.

It's National Housing day in Canada. Average rent in Nova Scotia is more than $2400. Working full time for min wage gets you around $2000 before tax. It's simple math & it doesn't add up. #nspoli #NationalHousingDay #Housing4All
