Episode Details

Late last month, the Ontario government announced that over $75 million dollars is going to municipalities to help them take down encampments in public spaces. That money would be going towards emergency shelter spaces and affordable housing units. To answer your questions about life in a homeless encampment, Just Asking brought in two guests. Justin Laflamme used to live in an encampment and currently lives in a respite centre. We've also booked Latonya Ludford, the Canada project manager at The Shift.
