The Big City Mayors apparently sold the solvethecrisis.ca campaign for a promise from the Premier of unspecified future funding for shelters, tied to evicting encampments. Might be one dollar. Did they get a good deal which will solve their citizens' worsening crisis?

Walking downtown this morn. Lots of recently homeless citizens sleeping bereft of tent shelter. Where they go when the cities ban their tents from parks. Didn't incentivize them into shelters. Maybe we should ask them why? How bad will we let it get before funding some cheap housing for them?
