Hello fellow Londoner.
You can build as many houses as you want but until you restrict investment firms and landlords buying all of them you won’t put a dent in the problem.
Also when you ignore someone breaking in to Cretien’s fucking house in the middle of the night. Maybe they should’ve been spending a bit more back then too.
That’s just basic self defense.
If any foreign power came in and tried to evict everyone in my neighbourhood so they could colonize it instead, I would fight back with whatever I had at my disposal. Are you saying you’d be okay with someone doing that to you?
I just read it. I’ll paste it below. There’s nothing in there I disagree with.
Statement of Solidarity with Palestine
Content warning: The following statement has content on genocide and ongoing violence in Palestine.
We the undersigned Unions present at York University reaffirm our solidarity with the Palestinian people, within Palestine and the global diaspora, and their ongoing fight against settler-colonialism, apartheid, and genocide. We vehemently condemn all forms of colonial violence and support Indigenous sovereignty.
Recently, in a strong act of resistance, the Palestinian people tore down and crossed the illegitimate border fence erected by the settler-colonial apartheid state of so-called Israel. These resistance efforts are a direct response to the ongoing and violent occupation of Palestine. Since 1948, Palestinian people have been systemically displaced from their land and homes as a result of state-sanctioned violence, siege, and genocide.
In response to Palestinian resistance, so-called Israel has continued to escalate attacks on Gaza by bombing residential neighborhoods, deploying white phosphorus bombs and cutting off access to food, water, power and medical supplies. These tactics are not new. So-called Israel has continually restricted Palestinians movement to & from Gaza, creating an open-air prison and obstructing access to essential resources within the apartheid fence for decades. From Turtle Island to Palestine, and across all occupied lands, these events serve as a reminder that resistance against colonial violence is justified and necessary. This is “decolonization” and “land-back” actualized as we continue to see the Palestinian people stand firm in their resistance against their oppressors.
We are witnessing clearly how the mainstream media utilizes strategic rhetoric which erases the decades old violence Palestinians have faced and the intentional subversion of responsibility for these atrocities from so-called Israel. Using language like “conflict” and “war in the Middle East” further delegitimizes the Palestinian people’s struggle for self-determination against the apartheid state of Israel by deliberately hindering the ability to acknowledge the ongoing violence as a form of ethnic cleansing. Settler-colonial states like so-called Canada and their institutions continue to legitimize their existence and those of other settler-colonial states making them complicit in the ongoing genocide. York University is complicit as they continue to invest students’ money into weapons and arms manufacturers. We denounce the statements put forth and stances taken by the York University Administration as they use their platform to obfuscate the ongoing occupation of Palestine and absolve themselves from their role in the ongoing genocide.
Our Unions remain unwavering in our support of the Palestinian people’s fight for self-determination and liberation. We actively affirm that Palestinians are inherently entitled to the right to shape their political, economic, social, and cultural future. This struggle confronts the persistent oppression, displacement, and human rights abuses inflicted upon the Palestinian population. We stand firmly in solidarity with those resisting such oppression, actively contributing to the legitimate fight for justice against settler-colonial nations. We as students’ unions have a responsibility to spread awareness and support the liberation of Palestine and all struggles for Indigenous sovereignty.

Our form of capitalism requires constant growth. One way to grow profits is to sell to more people.
If we stop immigration our economy collapses. If we keep it up, lots of other things collapse.
Don’t worry, next time he’ll make sure the bulldozers are ready to move as soon as he makes it available to his buddies.
Both are concerning in a potential leader of the country.
Great! Just tell me when I can get one and I’ll be there.
What’s wrong with a kiss, boy? Hmm? Why not start her off with a nice kiss? You don’t have to go leaping straight for the aerosol like a bull at a gate. Give her a kiss, boy.

“Brainwashing is brainwashing,” her post read.
Agreed. Teaching an irrational hatred for people with different sexualities and identities is brainwashing. Nobody is born hating.
If they can change the rules to allow building in the greenbelt, they can change the rules to allow higher density residence.
We have a limited number of builders and resources. It’s not helping by having them build a ton of mcmansions when they could be building high density condos instead.
I don’t like Trudeau either, but PP is way worse.
Here in Ontario Ford’s government is busy under-funding, dismantling, and privatizing our healthcare. This is a system that was in slow decline, COVID nearly broke, and which is now being abused by the government in power. This is anything but a temporary problem.
No, they mentioned “grooming and indoctrination”.
Oh wait…
There are going to be lots more of them like this.
