BTW, an interesting POV I learned from Tendayi Bloom, a scholar and editor of the book below (disclosure: of which I am a contributor), is that while #homelessness itself is usually not illegal, the practise of making #natural #human #necessities such as sleeping and excreting waste illegal in public spaces has the same effect as #criminalising being #unhoused.

😡

I am linking the book because there are so many vectors to being treated as non-#citizens that I think it are important to be aware of, even if one is *technically* a citizen, claiming such rights may depend on a number of other systems such as #authenticated #identification to "enjoy" those rights.

Lots of complexity that absolutely could be fixed if policymakers chose to do so. 😡

Human rights are for everyone.

No, dignity is not conditional.

No, your worth is not decided by your gender, race, income, ability, identity, age, or beliefs.

No, justice should not be reserved for the privileged few.

No one is “less than.”

You are human. That alone is enough to deserve safety, respect, equality, and freedom.

Every person. Every place. Every time.

Hey there #economy #equity #accessibility #finance and #UBI folks - anyone more erudite than myself able to comment on the economic improvements we could make to #Canada ?
Help! I want to live in a more #equitable world. #PMCarney wants notes - let's give it to him. Start with a solid #WealthTax to get all that stolen bread money back for Canadians. Ensure everyone actually gets #Food #Water #Education #Medication #Healthcare #Dentalcare #Dignity #MentalHealth supports and EVERYTHING WE CAN PROVIDE! Stop wasting money and resources empowering #Genocide and make Canada a place of safety and strength.
