No matter what you like, where you come from, or how much money you earn, everyone deserves a safe, secure place to call home. As the cost of living soars, and with shelters full and often unsafe, too many of our neighbours are left with nowhere to go.

This is not the solution to homelessness—it's ineffective, it’s expensive, and it’s cruel.
