the homeless problem has nothing to do with the province. Did you know that the city of Toronto spends almost $30 G per year PER HOMELESS PERSON to keep them on the streets? Now tell me thats solving the problem!
The homeless problem is due to the charter of rights and freedoms which recinded the vagrancy law and thus allows the crazy people to roam the streets because its their "right" to do so.
Also we seem to be a magnet for all the disfuntional people in society. Why does Toronto have more homeless than say Winnepeg or Calgary? Because all of your homeless have migrated here.
the majority of homeless in Toronto are not poor in the true sense of the word. They are homeless because they either do not have the mental capacity to operate in society, have some sort of substance abuse, or are escaping an abuse situation.
