OUR VOICES

Food justice and community mutual aid in conversation with FoodShare Toronto’s Director of Advocacy and Programs, Katie German

Food access in Toronto is situated within a broader global ecosystem that is itself impacted by systems of power such as capitalism, colonialism, and systemic racism. Food access is also deeply connected to land justice. One cannot consider Indigenous sovereignty without also addressing food justice; white settler colonialism has created a system in which food is more connected to capital than the land.

Update: $100 has been raised so far! $600 still needed Small but mighty CJTO contingent at the Global Climate Strike: Uproot the System🌎❤️✊ Update: $490 still needed! Please donate if you can to help them but their target Update! The target’s been reached. Thanks everyone for your support Today, a group of CJTO members paid a visit to Jagmeet Singh’s press conference in Davenport. We asked Jagmeet to commit to a moratorium on ALL old-growth logging in British Columbia. Instead, he side-stepped the question, and would not commit to the protection of all old-growth forests in the province. While his commitment of $500 million dollars to support Old Growth is a step-up from the Liberals, it ignores demands raised by elders like Bill Jones and Indigenous youth land protectors calling for a moratorium on all old-growth logging. He stated that the decision was to be left to Indigenous communities there, ignoring the fact that Bill Jones has been calling for land defenders to show up and defend old-growth forests. On Friday, September 17, join CJTO in a Social Media Day of Action to #FreeTheVaccine! This will be accompanied with an in-person action, the details of which will be posted on that day. We call on you to amplify across social media, share your support, and call on the Canadian government to do the right thing! This summer we witnessed the City of Toronto escalate its violent campaign to evict encampment residents from parks. During these clearings, over fifty encampment residents and defenders were arrested and received tickets or criminal charges. On Thursday September 16th at 10 AM, speakers and supporters will gather outside of mayor John Tory’s condo (at Bloor & Bedford) to make their demands heard: stop encampment evictions, drop all the charges, and roll out permanent rent-geared-to-income housing for all. We have two important posts for this week that are shared in the slides! They are both very urgent. Please donate and share in your networks

Now more than ever, we need bold transformative climate action.
