Sigh.. Councillors who didn't read what the offer was from the Feds. It was really clear that funding was tied to several things, including the re-zoning. And that it more than just what gets built, it is about supporting greater intensity into the future, beyond the 3 years of HAF.

Encampments are not just a big-city problem; they are not really a next-to-daycares problem. They are real people pushed out as the margins of society were redrawn on housing, the economy, the drug crisis, and government resources on support. That column doesn't really say much other than, Oh No
