  • Housing Co-Operatives, Self-Management, and the Landlord–Tenant Relationship
    ONE BAD BOARD AWAY FROM BANKRUPTCY: HOUSING CO-OPERATIVES, SELF-MANAGEMENT, AND THE LANDLORD–TENANT RELATIONSHIP by Josh Hawley A thesis submitted to the Department of Cultural Studies In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (May, 2019) Copyright © Josh Hawley, 2019 Abstract This thesis explores the development of the natural condition of co-operation into a large, apolitical movement and the effects of reshaping working-class people into co-operators. Semi- structured interviews, content analysis, and a limited autoethnography through a community- based action research paradigm, as well as a genealogical method, are used. A working-class analysis is applied throughout. In Ontario, residents of housing co-operatives are not considered tenants, following a history of legislation, legal precedents, and lobbying efforts by the co-op housing federations. This fact is manifested through the use of language, the shaping of co-op resident subjectivities, legal protections for residents, and the shunning of traditional tenant organizing direct action tactics to fight evictions and harassment. Six residents from five large-scale housing co-ops in Ontario participated in this research. Their experiences are compared and contrasted to the experiences of eight residents from seven housing co-ops in the Milton-Parc neighbourhood of Montreal. All 12 housing co-ops were created through state funding programs according to co-op corporation legislation. Residents of the Ontario co-ops expressed having few options when facing issues with their board of directors and staff. Residents are held responsible for the self-management of their housing project yet are encouraged to hire management staff.

Water levels measured ranged from 0.91 mbgs to 9.02 mbgs. Three wells were noted to be dry to depths ranging from 7.4 mbgs to 8.1 mbgs. The groundwater monitoring indicates that the shallow groundwater levels are generally between 6.5 mbgs and 9.0 mbgs within the Study Area, with the exception located at BH15-15 (in the vicinity of the tributary to Black Creek), where the static water level was measured 0.91 mbgs. Based on the design drawings, construction is unlikely to intercept the groundwater table and preliminary dewatering estimates indicate that the volume of excess water generated during earthworks is likely to be minimal, and would not require an Environmental Activity and Sector Registry (EASR) or Permit to Take Water (PTTW). These estimates should be updated through the detailed design process when additional hydrogeological information becomes available. For the analyzed metals and inorganics parameters, chloride was the only parameter that exceeded the applicable standard at BH15-15, located within the Keele Street extension.

  • Toronto Foundation for Student Success
    June 2016 REPORT Hadden Family Foundation Helps Hungry Students And the children say THANK YOU! Updates and Overviews The Feeding Hungry Minds program continues to impact young lives in Toronto. Nutrition programs are selected based on their need and their ability to improve in order to become more self‐reliant. Quite often, your funding keeps their programs running while they work to access alternate funding sources and outreach to their parents and their local community. Feeding Hungry Minds continues to provide the right funding to the right schools at the right time. This year a total of 40 Student Nutrition Programs were part of the Feeding Hungry Minds program and 28 achieved sustainability. With food and housing costs rising at an alarming rate, more families are struggling to put food on the table. We are grateful for the special support that the Hadden Family Foundation has extended to the children of so many families in Toronto. The Feeding Hungry Minds program has also made a big difference in the lives of youth involved in beyond 3:30. These youth are safe, happy and engaged while learning new skills like cooking, how to budget and teamwork. These are skills that will last them a lifetime! The following 60 schools have been part of the Feeding Hungry Minds Program and are now in a strong and stable position: Albert Campbell C.I. North East Year Round Alternative Centre Edgewood P.S. Anson Road P.S. Oakridge Jr. P.S. Emery C.I. Banting and Best P.S. Orde Street P.S. Emily Carr P.S.
