"PAPER BOOTS CLAIM ORDERED PROBED," Toronto Globe. April 19, 1933. Page 9. ---- York Township Council Resolves to Prohibit "Tent Colony" ---- Immediate investigation was ordered by York Township Council yesterday into allegations made at a meeting of the Mount Dennis Property Owners, to the effect that paper boots" were being supplied by the Welfare Department to relief recipients, who, it is claimed, in some cases were also denied a supply of bed covering.

When a motion was introduced delegating Reeve A. J. B. Gray to at- lend a conference between the Emergency Municipalities Committee and Premier Bennett to discuss the continuing of municipal relief, Councillor W. M. Graham suggested that an- other delegate accompany the Reeve. This brought Councillor W. J. Noble, whose political affiliations do not coincide with those of Councillor Graham, to his fect. "If you are trying to play politics, I am opposed to your suggestion," he told his colleague.

"My friend is so evil-minded that he accuses me of playing politics. He is all wrong," retorted Councillor Graham. This remark aroused Councillor Noble's ire, and he demanded its withdrawal. Under persuasion both Councillors retracted, and the incident closed.

"We must take some steps to stop the township becoming a tent colony," declared Reeve Gray, in supporting a motion which, in effect, would prohibit citizens living under canvas without approval being secured from the Board of Health. "I understand that there are 200 waiting for better weather so that they can pitch their tenta," the Reeve stated. With Councillor Graham opposing, on the ground that it interfered with citizens' personal rights, the resolution carried.

Former Township Clerk W. A. Clarke informed Council that he was willing to forego his pension of $2,000 as from June 1, conditional on payment to that date and a settlement of $1,000. The offer was agreed to and Mr. Clarke thanked for his generous action.

It was decided to approach the Federal Government, asking for a rebate of all sales tax on relief orders. J. Earl Lawson, M.P., will be asked to take the matter up at, Ottawa.

“All you need to do is strike! They can’t fire all of you!” Hm. Do you know how strikes are broken? Do you know what a strike fund is? Do you know the work that goes into maintaining a strike? Do you know what scabs are?

I appreciate the energy but strikes without planning and funding are like holding a gun to your head threatening to shoot and your boss going “ok do it.”

#people have mouths to feed and expenses to pay #‘ok then just don’t pay them! what are they gonna do fi—‘ #do you know what an eviction is? do you know what debt collectors are? #us labor law #us politics #‘well in x country they just—‘ correct. in a different country with different circumstances they do x #and they can be learned from as part of risk analysis and planning #it’s not that people haven’t thought to do it until your genius graced them #it’s that the risks were too large or SEEMED too large and the only way to lessen them is with planning funding and organizing #not condescending posts about how lazy american workers are for not ‘fighting back’

Christmas is coming time to indulge in silly tropes like sharing scarves n mistletoes n shit

Teru got way into the zone and his thought process was probably just "ah what the hell, having a longer scarf is better than a short one" and then boom. Couple scarf. Not what he intended to make but it works out.

I make fun of Teru's abysmal cooking but I feel that he can sew. Like he's a theater kid he probably has to deal with costumes n stuff. I can see him knitting handmade stuff for his friends.. pls..

Today on "Weird Headcanons That Randomly Popped In My Head One Day Without Any Basis In Canon Or Might Even Go Against Canon And Refuse To Leave"

Lute has a massive crush on Molly. They might even be friends, they might have barely talked to each other, that doesn't really matter.

After "The Show Must Go On" Lute realizes that Angel is Molly's brother and now she lives in anxiety that Molly finds out about Lute calling him a crack-whore and argued about leaving him to rot in hell. Lute still doesn't believe sinners have the right to redeem themselves (and she may or may not be absolutely is in complete denial about Sir Pentious being ... well, Sir Pentious so she still doesn't really believe it to be possible.) However, she sure as hell isn't going to tell her crush about almost any of that. Lute does at one point tell Molly that Angel is working to improve himself, maybe because of alcohol, maybe to cheer Molly up, maybe because Emily is dragging her kicking and screaming down a redemption arc. Maybe Molly already knows, maybe she doesn't.

Either way, Lute finally gets a spot of guilty consience, because Molly very much isn't a fan of this situation. And the literally only thing Lute can think of to make it up to Molly is smearing Valentino across Pentagram City.

#hazbin hotel #hazbin lute #crack headcanons #hazbin molly #not gonna lie #part of this is me trying to find an excuse to have Lute go after Valentino #i just really want to see the two most despicable people in this show throw down #buuut #i cant come up with a reason for adam to fight val #least not any that are fun and dont require several months of character development #also #the title isnt hyperbole #this shit lives in my head rent free #ive send several eviction notices #they dont work

Making ocs is an art that i think was lost on me, to do that i think you need to be able to figure out a life and in order to do THAT i need experience in making ocs. Dammit i gotta do this badly, scared and for the first time

#hex is a black cat with purple accents. hes a stocky but fluffy cat with medium length fur #i cant decide if he has purple eyes or brown #i want to draw him as a bartender #he should be able to wear hats. i think he would be good at wearing a hat #god im a boring person #hex has a sibling. i dont really have him fleshed out but hes called decimal #i think hes a brown tabby cat whos much fatter #hex is super bad at sports but he knows how to box bc he used to fight with dex #he used to be really into orange things and has a bunch of orange stuff left over from it but now hes more into black+bright/glowing pink #maybe ill draw him in a pink jacket one day #thats a lot already oh wow #hes good at playing cards and can deal like a showoff (i know nothing about cards) #hes good at caligraphy but his handwriting is like chickenscratch #hex #he signs all his cards with a giant flourish that takes up half the card but its pretty so they dont mind #he really loves fire lilies bc of his orange phase but couldnt bear to repot them for dragon lilies. like what is he gonna just evict them? #so hes has the extra thing of seeds next to the planter but no plans on planting them any time soon #hes a soft type of dude but once you know him he'll bite #he tries to be refined but it just ends up camp meanwhile dex would ride an atv through mud all day if he could afford to #he paints but hes never satisfied with it so he ends up just painting over it and making it an abstract portrait if he fucks up #when hes painting he always starts by painting his claws a matching color

“Say Rent Rocket And Many Evicted,” Toronto Star. March 18, 1941. Page 3. ----- ‘We’ll Move to Toronto,’ Workers Quoted - Some Up $45 a Month ---- WON”T INVITE BOARD ---- Special to The Star Oshawa, March 18. - Charges that of 120 men in his department at General Motors, 60 received eviction notices effective March 31 were made last night by Ald. James Haxton. He demanded that city council bring the rent control board to Oshawa.

Council voted six to four against such action. Instead it will attempt to combat the allegedly steadily rising rents through a special council committee that will study all complaints.

Ald. Haxton charged ‘wholesale eviction’ of tenants who had rented houses all through the depression. He said landlords were asking higher rents for these houses.

Mayor Anderson admitted large numbers of complaints from Oshawa had been flooding the federal rent control board, and that he had been informed that unless something were done the control board might have to move into the city.

‘I know of five families living in one house,’ said Ald. Bathe. ‘Lighting and ventilation are bad. They have to keep the lights on all day. And they’re being charged $23 a month.’

remembering my last ex in 2020 when i was homeless saying i better find someone else’s card to put on my hotel bill because they weren’t about to spend all their tuition money on me. we both knew they were never actually going back to school; they had been sitting on their phd for years at that point and weren’t even officially a student anymore. but hoarding that money to shore up the lie that they were going to get their shit together one day was more important than my own finite human life, and that’s always how it fucking goes.

#and this was after they did nothing to fight our eviction #then got me to stay at the shelter they worked at which was horribly traumatizing #and the beginning of the worst year of my life

help the animals in my walls are getting so loud I’m worried they’re gonna break through & they’re driving my cats (& me) insane but I don’t wanna text my land lord in case he remembers how much money I owe him 😭 anyway back to listening to taylor swift

I have yet to keep inspecting the sweepstakes, I need some air and food first, but I might as well share what I've been thinking about Mike today, because I heard of an interpretation saying Mike was a camera man for Spamton which ... Is very interesting. Like for me this makes me think of Mike as someone who admired Spamton, someone way smaller than him, definitely younger imo, who simply excitedly followed along with the orders given. I mean, up to a certain point. I mean this feeling is reinforced in the q&a when asked about Mike, that makes Spamton get very defensive, almost protective. In my eyes it almost creates this almost platonic familiar bond dynamic whatever. But like this is just a shot in the dark, bc what we know is, 3 lines, period. But if when chapter 3, 4 and 5 come out and Mike is there and I'm right about these things then I'm gonna feel like a god tbh.

#luly talks #not gonna put this one on main tag bc its a bit too vague and speculative and shit but im leaving rbs on in case some1 is like hm ur into #something here nemo im which case i will wag my tail and bat my eyelashes #but am i making sense anyway? #like just to make sure: my idea of mike is a camera man younger and smaller than Spamton who admired the guy #and spamton out of idk fondness bc he reminded him of his old self kinda took the guy under his wing in a way #that's why he's so protective and shit #although unrelated to this bc just. putting that there and NOT touching it but it's interesting what Spammy says right after name dropping #mike if you believe in the cameraman interpretation (which i saw in a video i then stopped watching bc i wanted to explore that shit myself) #bc he right after says to not believe anything you see on tv but this could easily imply mike did do his part but the editing team changed #shit. but its just very curious what involvement Mike could've had because. why would he be as targeted as he appears to be? #and what caused him to also abandone spamton? is mike even fucking alive? judging by Spammy's q&a dialogue you'd assume he is #but i mean that's official but not canon right so it's a bit hard to judge? #but Mike seems to be the only one he isn't really resentful towards for leaving him almost implying it wasn't Mike's choice? #i just can't wait to see more of this bc it's gonna reveal a whole side to this little puppet previously unknown #in fact i think that after breathing some air im gonna go look at the snowgrave neo fight flavor text and cry and piss and etc #I'm still not over spamton begs the audience to stop taking the furniture i can see the poor guy being evicted as he tries to plead not to #so vividly wugh. my poor little guy of questionable morals . . . 😢 #also don't get me started on the commemorative ring man what on earth is going on there.........

ever since I got my inheritance (or as I call it, my Dead Dad Money) I have become the insane rich friend. can't make rent bro? now you can; need groceries or a meal delivered? I got you; don't own basic cookware? It's arriving from amazon tomorrow mate make sure you're up before noon

"Money can't buy happiness" it's currently buying my loved ones peace of mind about their housing, buying them actual hours to enjoy life by helping meet their most basic needs, and also buying my ego a much, MUCH-needed boost

#ask to tag #money tw #food tw #capitalism #money can't buy happiness #it can just buy the most fundamental precursors to happiness #like feeling safe and not starving to death #nobody is gonna be able to find happiness if they die of exposure after getting evicted #fight me #parent death tw
