Okay but real talk— your city council just made a move that could actually help folks facing eviction right here in Toronto, and it wasn't a unanimous slam dunk, fam.
### One Councillor Said No to Eviction Data
On March 23, 2026, the Confronting Anti-Black Racism Advisory Committee voted to address evictions through disaggregated race-based data in social housing. This is huge, right? It means digging deeper into *who* is being evicted and why, especially in our social housing system. Data like this is crucial for understanding the real impacts on our neighbours, especially in communities that have historically been overlooked. The motion *passed* with a 7-3 vote, according to council records.
But here’s the kicker: Councillor Amber Morley voted *No*. I’m sitting here thinking, *enna nadakuthu?* Why would you vote against getting more information on something as critical as evictions and race-based data? This kind of transparency is exactly what we need to tackle systemic issues in our city.
### What It Means for You
This vote means City Hall is, at least on paper, committed to understanding the root causes of evictions in our social housing. For us regular folks, this means better data *should* lead to better policies, policies that could actually keep people housed. We've got to watch closely to see how this data is collected and, more importantly, *used*. Will it really help families stay in their homes, or will it just be another report gathering dust? That's what we need to demand from our councillors.
Real talk, this is Toronto — stay up.
