Today, on Trans Day of Remembrance, we honour the trans lives stolen by violence, discrimination, and neglect.

Remembering means acting: ending the housing crisis must include ending transphobia in our systems, our services, and our policies.

We've joined 134 organizations to demand that Premier Ford protect Ontario's renters and repeal Bill 60.

Ontario cannot afford even weaker rental protections and more homelessness: over 700,000 Ontarians are currently out of work and 81,000 were homeless last year.
