for making today’s announcement happen. The $70M announced today will support many important initiatives and also help close the funding gap between Edmonton and Calgary to support our unhoused neighbours.

Yup. close down safe injection sites. (that can help people get off drugs). Close or privatize Addition centres or make a number of then religious based.(a lot of people have religious based Trauma).
(This will stop a lot of people from getting help). Move some out of the cities To areas that are less accessible. Stop funding support services. Then at the last minute refund some things.
Ever since the UCP have been in power I have seen a steady increase in the number of homeless and poverty in the inner city. That homelessness is now being seen in a large part of Edmonton not just the inner city. I now walk around at lunch and always carry a Neloxone kit with me.
The inner city services that I do volunteer work with are beyond max capacity. It is going to take a generation to recover.
When Danni gets in I can see this getting worse again.
Medicine hat the City that said it beet homelessness, had issues 7 months later and its only getting worse.
My big beef is that the people and Political leaders that profess to be such great strong Christians are the least Christian I have encountered.
I know a lot of good religious based groups , they don't push their religion on you. they are there just to serve where they can. but the leaders and the fundamentalist Christian groups are the problems.
I'll be doing dinner service at an Inner city church on Friday. It will be interesting to see if we have enough to serve everyone.
