A Win... for Toronto, and for the Unhoused.#DunnHouse
Welcome to Dunn House — a prescription for change that has been years in the making. Housing is health. And this is the power of partnership.
51 UHN patients with no fixed address comprised over 4,000 emergency department visits in the past year. This is driven by the pathologies of poverty.
For the 51 individuals moving in, this is more than housing—it's good health care. With primary care, Indigenous-led support, harm reduction and addiction treatment services, we’re redefining compassionate care for people experiencing homelessness.
The work isn't done until tenants are settled in—and won’t feel real until I’m seeing patients in the clinic room right onsite. While a month in hospital costs over $30,000, supportive housing costs just $4,000, promoting human dignity and sound health economics.
Grateful to our entire team, all partners and the advocacy of the Parkdale community for making this possible. This is just the beginning of showing the world that housing is healthcare.
Homelessness is a crisis — not a crime. Forcing people out of encampments with police won’t solve the problem. All Ontario's party leaders must commit to an urgent, compassionate, housing response.

That’s a very persuasive and hopeful endorsement of Harris from Mr. Musk
BREAKING: Elon Musk says Kamala Harris will Shut down X and bring back Twitter if she wins the Election
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
While Musk did say this, as shown in the video posted as a reply to this post, Harris has not made this claim. The claim that she did so is based on a misleading clip from a 2019 interview where she speaks on Donald Trump’s Twitter account.

I spoke to @CP24 about @fordnation's potential use of the notwithstanding clause to remove homeless people's Charter-protected rights — all so that governments are no longer obligated to provide housing, or even shelter beds. Let's stop it from happening: change.org/OntarioEncampment…

JUST IN: The Elon Musk hearing in Philadelphia, over his potentially illegal $1m giveaway to voters, has been moved up to tomorrow.... AND the judge says "all parties must be present." Musk is a named defendant in the case, so that includes him. TBD if he'll actually be there.
