Today, we won major commitments to homeless people for future mega events like FIFA — including compliance with human rights law as a condition of hosting mega events in TO. Mega events shouldn't be weaponized to displace people. Today we're codifying it! youtube.com/watch?v=0YUmJQFH…

“What we are seeing is an increase in policing to push people out and away from the gaze of the media and tourists… this is completely shameful,” says David Roberts, Director of Urban Studies at the University of Toronto. #News #Toronto #FIFA

Struggling locals report forced removals from public space, verbal abuse and dehumanization, physical assault by security and police and increased targeting of visibly poor and homeless people ahead of FIFA-related city “cleanups.” #News #Toronto #FIFA
