🧵Our Canadian fetish for Finnish #HousingFirst needs to be refocused. "Bottom line. Canada has been doing Housing First for 20 years. As a solution to our housing crisis, and in the absence of a true national housing program, it is a colossal failure."...2

🏠 #Finland's #Housing First success story: Is it the cure for Canada's #homelessness? With less than 4,000 homeless in Finland, thanks to mixed income housing and strong social safety nets, can Canada replicate this model? Story by @cathyacrowe buff.ly/3vtjZ2H

Hi @hfxgov, my priority 1 street was still not plowed at all this morning (end of Bridgevirw Drive). Yesterday I had no choice but to take the bus and almost wiped out on streets and sidewalks multiple times so I could get to my essential job. Today I barely made it by car.

Any talk about housing subsidies is talk about landlord subsidies. This does not help folks who need it most and the prov knows that. It's their choice to not make change.

This is a made in Canada tragedy. This woman reached out to me one month before her death, still desperately seeking help to improve her living situation. She did NOT want to die. After two yrs of fighting she felt she had no other option left.
