Well, it's complicated.

👀 😥 In Toronto Library contract negotiations "Key bargaining points were 'safety & security', 'harassment' & 'workplace violence.' … public libraries have been pressed into service as de facto homeless shelters & support service locations. They’ve become hotbeds of people in crisis.

It's #homelessness all the way down."

Trump is about to make the Toronto homelessness crisis worse:
