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. |
True, but there is a significant concentration of people with mental health and addiction issues concentrated in a very small area, in large part because there are 3 large homeless shelters plus numerous social agencies, plus a lot of public housing concentrated within a few blocks of Rideau. If social services were spread out more there probably wouldn't be that kind of concentration.
