Episode Details

Nova Scotia’s sudden reversal on income assistance for unhoused people living in tents has sparked outrage, reversing a court ruling that granted them an extra $300 monthly — now they’re slapped with a lower rate. Lawyers call it cruel and discriminatory, arguing tents aren’t cheaper and the move targets vulnerable populations. The province claims it’s just clarifying rules for consistency, but critics say it’s politically motivated and undermines dignity. Legal teams are now investigating whether this violates human rights.
