the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

264 residents arrived by plane in Peterborough yesterday evacuated from Sandy Lake First Nations.
I've been asked to help organize donations for men's size 12 and 13 shoes, and men's size 4XL clothing.
Items can be dropped off at the Friendship Centre.

The @cityptbo.bsky.social cut a bunch of childrens programming at the library & lifeguards/water testing at a popular beach to save relative pocket change, while the mayor (who you can reach at [email protected]) increased the police budget by literally millions without asking council/the public
Covering the all-day budget meeting, via livestream... Seems that on May 30, the mayor used his strong mayor powers to increase the police budget by 10% for 2026.
