When Will You Actually Assist The Homeless?

 So, answer me this  ….. how does building 50,000 new homes help the housing crisis?

Seriously,  how does it get our homeless out of the tent cities or how does it get those who are sleeping on our sidewalks a home?

IF THEY CAN AFFORD TO BUY A “NEW HOME” THEY WOULDN’T BE SLEEPING (AND LIVING) ON THE STREETS.

Tell me that I am wrong.

New homes do not contribute to “affordable housing“. Not in any way.

New homes are for the upper class.

We need “affordable apartments“.

Our youth, our seniors and, definitely,  our disabled need places to live that they can rent and still have enough to but a loaf of no-name bread and perhaps a package of chicken baloney.

This drive to build thousands and thousands of houses will not get one single homeless person off the streets.

All this crap about we need to build 200,000 houses will only benefit those who are already living in a place.

By “place” I do not mean a plot of cement under the Bloor Street viaduct or a nice grassy area littered with syringes and crack pipes like the lawns of Moss Park.

All this talk is just a political dance to gain support.

A way for these politicians,  none of which understand what it is like to have nothing, to stand before the cameras and tell us how great they are.

Maybe I am wrong and these new homes will be rented out for the same price as apartments. Yea right, like that will ever happen.

They could build a million houses and still not one down and out soul will be able to buy one.

Are all of you really that gullible?

Even a blind person can see that this is not a solution to this “housing crisis“.

The average Joe cannot afford to purchase one of these ridiculous priced houses.

What about the disabled soul living off of the Ontario Disability Support Program or those on welfare?

ODSP recipients are  lucky if they receive $1400 per month and Welfare much less than that.

What about the poor senior who lives off of Old Age and/or Canada Pension?

Statistics show that the average one bedroom apartment in Toronto range from $1500 to $2000 per month.

That is why every major street and most parks are filled with numerous souls with little or no hope of ever getting a place.

Many turn to drugs or alcohol to escape the pain of being treated like a nuisance. 

Not any of these forgotten souls chose to live on the streets.

Many end up losing themselves to mental illness.

Many simply give up and lay down hoping that they do not wake.

We should be building many low rise buildings and such that will be affordable for those who really need our assistance.

I am positive that you have to agree that destroying the Greenbelt, building fancy houses and building sky high condominiums is only political manipulation to make the developers and their homies richer.

Dictator Ford and Princess Chow do not care about the poor. They care about where they stand in the polls.

“Affordable housing” does not exist in their plan.

They are literally forcing people into homelessness.  Then they stand in front of the podiums and brag how they have reduced the number of welfare and disability recipients.

And they have.

By making them homeless and disqualifying them for social assistance.

When will you damn sheeple open your eyes and your hearts to assist those who need a simple room or an apartment?

When?

When the winter arrives or a severe heatwave and they are running out of body bags and pauper graves?

If you have any human decency left in you, speak up and stop riding the political bullshit train.

I am ashamed of what Toronto and the rest of Ontario has become.

I am ashamed that in the year 2023 we have people living under bridges like trolls in a science fantasy movie.

I am ashamed of YOU!

And I am heartbroken that we all allowed this to happen.
