Episode 414: Are We Making The Homelessness Crisis Worse?

It’s the Friday Round Table!

Craig was joined by a panel of community advocate Jeremy McCall, former NDP candidate Shawna Lewkowitz, and Blackburn Media news manager Scott Kitching.

First, a quick discussion about Donald Trump saying he’s cutting off trade talks with Canada because of an ad the Ontario government placed.

Then, a look at the news out of Queen’s Park that the Ford government is looking at making major changes to residential rental rules in the province – and the potential pitfalls that come from that. Would it lead to more homelessness in London?

Also, London finally has a HART hub! Will that help our homelessness issues? What about those ‘micro shelter’ spaces south of the 401? The panel discusses.

They wrap up with a look ahead to next year’s municipal election. Will Josh Morgan have any serious challengers?
