Our MLA Amanda Lathlin took the time to speak to the homeless population to listen to their stories and to find out how these individuals can be helped. She shared the stories at a SCAN meeting organized by Make Shift Happen on Wednesday night.
Lathlin added that many of these people have dealt with past trauma such as residential school and oppression for being indigenous and none of the homeless people she spoke to wanted to live the way they do adding they face many barriers such as not be able to obtain a photo ID.
