To the editor,
Re: Nobody wants to be homeless, Letters, June 14.
A few years ago I wrote to your paper suggesting a partial remedy for the city’s homeless people. Back then my idea was ridiculed but I am compelled to repeat it. We need to create a campground close to the city amenities with washrooms, showers, lockers, information centre, waiting list for the alternative accommodation, etc. Any other place to squat should be off limits.
