End Homelessness — Fund Solutions

Petition to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario: Stop Finger Pointing. Start Funding Solutions. 

To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:

Whereas the province underfunds deeply affordable housing, mental health services, and supportive housing;

Whereas people are forced to sleep outside without access to shelter beds or supportive housing across Ontario;

Whereas giving people with substance use disorders need rapid access to evidence-based mental health and addictions services;

Whereas investing in supportive housing, harm reduction, and mental health care is more cost-effective and the real solution to ending chronic homelessness.

We, the undersigned, petition the Legislative Assembly of Ontario as follows:

  1. Immediately upload the funding responsibility for affordable housing and shelters from municipalities to the Province.
  2. Fully fund supportive housing, addiction treatment, and mental health services;
  3. Expand access to low-barrier addiction treatment programs;
  4. Build and provide operational funding for supportive housing to move the over 81,500 people (AMO 2025 study) from tents to safe and affordable homes;
  5. Commit to a comprehensive, evidence-based overdose strategy aligned with public health best practices and harm reduction;
  6. Collaborate with Indigenous governments and urban Indigenous organizations to fund culturally appropriate, Indigenous-led housing and health care;
