This tweet sums up the damage that's done when our governments repeatedly lack the courage to make decisions. More than a decade of dithering on LRT has landed our city in a no win situation and will likely lead us to another pointless referendum on an issue long decided. #HamOnt https://twitter.com/SarahJama_/status/1327235974087241728

Imagine how these properties could be used to help folks who don't have safe or affordable access to housing. Imagine if our City's priorities were focused on those who need the most support, first. I think about it all the time.

Every single one of us knows it can be done. It's one rationalization away from becoming a policy and one committed local government away from systemic change. If our City spent a fraction of the energy it has chasing its tail on the Commonwealth Games, we'd be well on the way.
