storeys.com/gtha-pricing... GTA Households earning $40-$125K are being squeezed out. These are our nurses, teachers, cops, road workers, etc. When cities don't build, we see who among us they do not value. Hope they remember this when services slow, and wait times increase.

The GTHA Is Pricing Out Its Workforce (And Risking Its Future)
From Mississauga to Scarborough, Hamilton to downtown Toronto, the very people who keep our cities functioning are being priced out of them.

We can't spend our way out of this housing crisis. We need true policy reform that will get homes built. Cutting DCs by 50% is, at best, a modest step in the right direction. It doesn't achieve a damn thing if municipal govts continue to block housing locally. storeys.com/peel-region-...

Myth: #Toronto allows unrestricted housing development. The truth is that it has the same outdated restrictions as suburbs like #Mississauga. Yesterday's decision on 6-plexes show that Toronto's leaders are not ready to take even the most modest action to address the housing crisis.

To our friends in #Toronto, pls raise your voice today to support @moreneighboursto.bsky.social by calling or emailing your local City Councillor to encourage them to vote YES to citywide sixplexes (PH22.4). Support solutions to end the housing crisis! 💪 www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

To all those who ran in Canada's election: Congratulations on a well-fought outcome. To the media: Now that it's over, please stop asking feds about housing when those with the most immediate power to solve our crisis are the provinces and the municipalities. We're begging.

If you're heading to the polls today, swing by Mississauga City Hall and ask the anti-housing protesters why their signs were made by 'Markham Voice'. We'd love to know. When you have to bring in your NIMBYs from out of town, you do NOT represent the people of this city. #housing

This is such a common #housing myth that it's practically cliche Housing is not just for "new residents". It's for current residents too. God forbid a resident of the city wants to move our of their parents' home, afford a place in the city they grew up in, or make the leap from renting to owning.

Interesting anti-housing protest in Erin Mills today. The group held up signs repurposed from a previous Markham protest (zoom in on the bottom of the yellow sign - they tried to hide it). Looks like NIMBYs from outside of #Mississauga are running an astroturf campaign in our city.

Congrats to Mississauga and advocates at our sibling group @morehomessauga.bsky.social for getting a huge amount of funding set up for affordable housing builds in the city! Some caveats to consider though: www.mississauga.ca/city-of-miss...

City awards funding for affordable rental units in eight new Mississauga developments
The funding will help get more than 1,400 new rental units under construction including 25 per cent with more affordable or below-market rents.

New op-ed from our Exec. Director in @thestar.com today. Ontario cities are not standing with Team Canada to protect our economy - especially, and crucially, our housing economy. Time to join the fight. Call your local Councillor today. Elbows up 🇨🇦 www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

What should Toronto area mayors do during a trade war? Build.
Every level of government has a role to play in dealing with the current crisis. Ontario municipalities should not be permitted to shirk their responsibilities.

MHM is disappointed that all major parties declined to participate in MHM's Housing questionnaire prior to the provincial election, despite multiple attempts to reach out. Mississauga voters (and all Ontarians) deserve engaged leaders willing to discuss their solutions to the housing crisis.

#mississauga is forcing a 'Heritage' designation on Streetsville. This will restrict housing development near a GO station, and strip residents of their property rights. Residents showed up to say NO to the HCD. We can protect heritage sites without eroding property rights. youtu.be/7PMHR1Iv-W4

Cllr Tedjo shared this image on bsky from the Peel budget meetings. 📢 Basic math: If you increase your taxpayer base by building more homes, you don't have to skyrocket taxes on any residents. Instead, Peel residents will be eating a big, avoidable property tax hike.

@citymississauga is attempting to force a heritage designation on a church property that doesn't want it bc of the heavy restrictions it will place on the owners. The same Councillor & bureaucrat are trying to force a heritage designation on the entire Streetsville community👇

Talk about entitlement! HAF $ is based on meeting housing targets. #mississauga has repeatedly failed to do so, and shows no signs of improvement. This is just embarrassing. Earn the HAF $, or explain to residents why taxes are going up....

On Wednesday #Mississauga voted to increase speeds in school zones from 30km/h to 40km/h on evenings and weekends. Cost to taxpayers: $700K, to save 12s on your drive. The city rakes in MILLIONS in DCs, driving up the cost of housing, so they can waste it on this.

🍎 Today, kids return to school. But as Peel school enrolment continues to decline, we have to re-consider the myth of 'our family-friendly neighbourhoods'. Housing affordability is dictating family planning decisions in #Mississauga. This is what a crisis looks like.
