From Individuals:
3. BIRT the District 12 STBU Council endorse the Housing Not War Declaration put forward by the Toronto Disaster Relief Committee (TDRC) and the Canadian Peace Alliance (CPA):
The Housing Not War Declaration
I/we support the demand that the federal government implement a Housing Not War strategy. Canada is at war in Afghanistan. Homelessness remains a national disaster in Canada. Canadian troops should come home, and funding directed towards war and militarism should go towards housing and other peaceful purposes.
As homelessness worsens in Canada, the federal government can no longer justify spending untold billions of dollars on war. We call for the 1% solution – an additional 1% of the federal budget to be allocated towards social housing. This would bring spending to $4 billion per year.
Javier Davila, Parkdale CI/
4. BIRT that this council requests that the monthly grievance report include, for all policy and group grievances that have been resolved, a brief statement of the circumstances of the grievance and the nature of the resolution without compromising the confidentiality of any individual members who may have been involved in the grievance.
