There is no way we can afford proper housing with the shelter allowance. I live in fear of my rent increasing because there is nothing left to give up to make up the difference - my landlord refuses to fix the roof that leaks into my kitchen cabinets and the bedroom - it was a fight to have the expired water heater replaced - she tells me I don't pay enough rent to make fixing anything worthwhile.

If there are many mentally sick people that are homeless get their primary needs met and create jobs to help them. Our goverment should not just welcome the immigrants and create jobs for teaching them english. Our goverment should take care of its own people, and create jobs to make those in needs to become better.

Most have mental Health Issues and many did not get into drugs until they became homeless. Drugs dull the effects of hunger. It is hard to get a job without a fixed address and those that do get a job are often on minimum wage and can't pay for housing. We need a huge amount of low income housing so that those that are homeless will not get into drugs and alcohol.

The only reason they are on the streets is because this government closed down institutions. And while these institutions may not have been the best place, it was a roof over their heads and there were qualified professionals administering medications. Instead they are homeless and that costs not only our health care system but policing. Who do you think pays for that? Taxpayers maybe! Next time vote anyting but Liberal!
