For example, the council recently passed a motion prohibiting the library from undertaking any capital projects without giving the library or residents any opportunity to speak.

    All your hard drugs are toxic, are you telling me nobody overdoses on your so called safe supply, lady i'm a recovered drug addict and i tell you the more they get the more they need to do, that's how they are overdosing, i spent 10 years addicted to painkillers and if i had been given a steady supply i sure as fuck would be dead already, instead i went to a recovery house, and not the 90 crap, it was long term. I spent 11 months in there, going on 14 years clean now. So don't tell me feeding them more drugs is the solution

    Nowadays it's cheap to build a basic simple container, cabin shelter, or tiny house, without electricity and water is totally fine. At least it's safe and a place to call home. Why can't we allow people to have these simple cabins to call home? why leave people sleep on the street or in shelters that are full of violence and drugs? Cold is not the only threat, the violence, the drugs, the threat spread of desease... are all what homeless have to face,too. More mental health service is NOT helpful. People in addictions need a home to go back to, and always have a home. Having a home in their back, he will stop his addiction in his own strength. Mental health therapy is not his strength. Don't use mental health help to make it look like people are getting help. Mental health services are not helpful. Shelters are NOT helpful. Shelters are full of drugs, stabbings, aids, violence, spread of disease, stealings,...it's not an option and it's not hope, it's not home. People need HOME, not sleep outside, not mental health services, not shelters. People's recovery strength does not come from mental health services, or having a shelter to go to. Their recovery strength is from havivg a forever home. it's a forever safe place they can back up to whenever they need it. Don't lie and say that people are getting help because there are shelters and there are lots of mental health services. Stop these big lies. These young people who are in trouble of addictions and homeless will stay falling apart without home in their back and if their option is only about shelter and mental health services. People need HOME for life, not any temporary solution. Nowadays with the technology, it's easy to build a basic cabin out of plastic, wood, or steel. everyone can own one to call home for life, give the space to back up to at anytime.

      @@StuMarston thanks for reply. The manager is an employee of the company......but YOU are NOT an employee of the company. It may be that the company has a policy, but what relevance does a company policy have to do with you? If you are engaging in violent action and behavior or stealing other people`s property then you should be trespassed (because that is criminal activity) but if you are the lawful man and NOT causing anyone injury, damage, loss, harm, then they are simply discriminating against the lawful man. In other words, if the company is open to public access then they would need to employ you before their policy has anything to do with you.

    • @StuMarston
      @StuMarston Před 4 měsíci

      @@mccabeianenator This has absolutely NOTHING to do with company policy. As someone who has a law degree and has previously studied this, I can tell you that this a very straightforward area of law. This is about private property rights. The owner of private property can lawfully remove any person or refuse to allow entry to any person for any reason except for discriminatory reasons. Ie. race, gender, religion etc. That means they can't demand you leave because you're black or female or Jewish. Next you have to understand what agency means. Agency means that the owner or occupier of a property has given permission and authority (agency) to act on their behalf in relation to the property. This is why you may to out to a baseball game or a bar and the security has the authority to tell you to leave and may physically remove you if necessary. They aren't the owners. Security guards don't own the establishment or the property but they're agents who have been given the authority by the owners. and have the legal authority to act as the owner/occupier. When you think of it from a practical perspective, it makes sense. Often times, an owner may live half way across the country or even overseas. It would be silly if the law required an owner to personally trespass someone. Imagine a person in a restaurant in Toronto causing a disturbance and the owner lives in Vancouver. Imagine having to call the owner in Vancouver and saying we need you to come to your Toronto restaurant. There is someone causing a disturbance. That'd be ridiculous. That's why we have a thing called agency.
