Looks like classism is alive and well in River Ward
You can't just kick out and evict street people, they need a place to go. Homeless is a social issue that requires social spending to fix, not police officers.
I just looked at old Google Street View images from 2009 ish from Rideau Street, and holy jeez, it's so much better now (I've only been familiar with the street since 2012). The old street had five lanes of traffic and little thin sidewalks... now there's four lanes and big wide sidewalks.
