Spoke to CityNews today about the City's shamefully embarrassing response to the heatwave. Bring back 24/7 cooling centres, for starters. Council meets this week - write your councillor insisting on a way more appropriate heat wave response! youtu.be/nBSFe6w-_3U?fe…

The very architecture of these concentration camps/cages are designed to be a form of torture towards those it contans, no solid separation = no sense of privacy hearing/seeing sounds & light from everywhere = no sleep/rest thin plastic roof = cold in winter, boiling in summer
