Kara 'Bout It @karaboohoo.bsky.social · 18/02/2026Reminder that yesterday Councillor Ross Eadie said that there was NO power within Canada to effect foreign conflicts, thus making protests in support of Palestine pointless.

Kara 'Bout It @karaboohoo.bsky.social · 18/02/2026"The housing crisis is not a crisis of supply; it is a crisis of distribution." Housing inflation has boosted the wealth of private landlords, while rising prices have put ownership out of reach for many, put new buyers deeply in debt, all while driving up homelessness. tinyurl.com/42sc7vvbpolicyalternatives.caThe numbers don’t lie: The housing crisis is not caused by a supply shortage - CCPAFinancialization, not demographics, caused the cost of housing to explode 031
