Two sites identified for 'village' for homeless people
TBNewsWatch 41Get the money first before spending our money. 6-8 million to get off the ground and run this place seems crazy for a city that is not suppose to be paying for this in the first place.

Council requests specific designated encampment sites for new report
TBNewsWatch 30How about no encampments. We just don't allow them. No roof over your head then you must go to a shelter. If shelters are full then dsab must find you a space even if that means they must rent a room for you at local motel. You will be given a social worker to deal with your problems. Tax payer encampments are a legal nightmare.

Compassion for homeless underway 'with few resources'
TBNewsWatch 21There should be one encampment that is clean, and policed . There should be services to help those who want to helped. If you don’t want to stay then move on to the next city. This is a province funding issue. It’s time to demand more from the politicians.

LETTER: Rethink homeless village location
TBNewsWatch 23I agree we are compromising all the investments people have put into their businesses . It’s hard enough to run a business, why are we making it harder. Bus them in and out of a location that does not affect anyone’s livelihood.
