Its time we accept that our governments don’t view housing as a human right. They do respect property rights, as we saw when ABC councillors expressed empathy for home owners facing negative impacts from the Villages Plan. But in the same week, renters at Myron Manor were given zero consideration.

Pretty funny way of admitting that, for conservatives, Canada Day *is* about unapologetically celebrating colonialism and the oppression of Indigenous Peoples. That's a losing strategy, as the majority of Canadians support reconciliation and building a more honourable future.

notice where income and housing costs become completely untethered from one another

a graph showing read disposable income and housing costs in the US and Canada between 1980 and 2020. in the US, housing prices is mostly increasing at a slower rate than disposable income, save the 2000s, where it rapidly increases before crashing in 2008. in Canada, it's in the early 2000s, shortly after Karen's graph shows social housing builds falling off a cliff, that housing skyrockets whole disposable income continues a fairly linear trajectory

the graph also shows spikes in the early 1980s, after a significant dip in social housing builds in the late 1970s, and again in the early 1990s, after another significant dip in social housing builds in the late 1980s

A friendly reminder that having house prices drop in one segment of one market doesn’t equate to affordability improving across the board. Few are building homes that target the needs of half of the population, or those whose income sits below the median.

The reason necropolitians like Carney should scare everyone is the underclass they've decided are already dead will almost certainly one day include you. We saw it during the pandemic with the elderly and sick. We see it with the unhoused and drug users. If anyone is expendable, everyone can be.

Background: More than 18,600 BCers have been killed by unregulated drugs since 2014. The gov has tried some harm reduction but thousands have still died. DULF decided to break drug laws, which they say were unjust, to provide pure, labelled drugs to high-risk users in a compassion club.

The Big Crime Lie. noraloreto.substack.com/p/the-big-cr...

Canadians rejected this approach in 2015 but social conditions continued to decline under Justin Trudeau, making it easy for Poilievre to resurrect it. The gap between the rich and poor has exploded to historic highs, triggering a new and worrisome public face of desperation: that which politicians would call crime. And yet, if we’ve never actually been safer before (unless we’re a Shopper’s Drug Mart’s baby food section), why are our politicians hiring more and more cops and changing our bail laws? If crime is not up, what is with all this spending on so-called crime-fighting measures?

The answer is easy: expanding the security state is necessary if the rich are going to keep making the money they are making. They are talking about security not for the people, but of profits. We cannot be allowed to riot. We cannot be allowed to smash the windows of the Royal Bank or Loblaw’s. They know that that’s what comes next and they’re heading us off at the pass … and way too many Canadians are thanking them for their wisdom in doing so.
