Mayor Ellis says emergency action plan needed on homelessness
From 2006 to ’14 we basically had some couch-surfing, but really no visible homelessness. I went away for basically two terms — eight years — came back, and we have approximately 200 homeless
So it’s grown and grown and growing, and there doesn’t seem to be an end to it.
It’s basically a health crisis. It’s a social economic crisis. And I don’t see that successive governments at the provincial level … are tackling any type of thing that we can see — whether it’s poor policy decisions, or they’re just not interested in it
When I look at it, why aren’t they interested? Basically the cost, but the homeless don’t vote, and I hate to say it. But it’s a social crisis right now and we need to get out in front of it.
Mayor Neil Ellis to CBC Radio’s Ontario Morning
Belleville calls on Ontario government to acknowledge the homelessness crisis and commit to ending it
The motion asks the province to step up with much more financial and services support saying municipalities don’t have the resources to deal with increasing numbers of people experiencing homelessness.
