Day of Action for Affordable Housing
August 28, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
Ottawa is in crisis. For every 1 unit of affordable housing that is built, 7 are lost, and over 150 people sleep on the street every night. Yet, our city council only approved $16 million on building new affordable homes.
We know we can do better – Currently the city spends $40 million on shelters, and we think at least the same should be spent on permanent, deeply affordable housing so we can start tackling the root cause.
That’s why this June we launched our petition to double the housing budget and we have gotten thousands of signatures – to finish up our Summer Canvassing Series and transition into the Fall we will be holding one final Day of Action to door knock across the Carlington!
