    Kudos to Peterborough. Always cheaper in the long run to try and tackle the problem than deal with all the other issues and costs of ignoring it.

    Well done. Housing people is way cheaper than dealing with all the problems of a homeless population.

      Just do your research our politicians have been heavily investing in rental properties on the advice of the elites that pull their strings while whispering in their ears open the borders flood the country with migrants raising rents increasing the homeless population psst pass soft on crime lunacy causing massive retailers to bail buy up their properties at firesale prices next collect billions and billions in government grants to use properties to house all the homeless

    Love how Toronto city counselor stick handles around things..
    An option they could have done is look at other provinces and cities like Calgary or Edmonton models for big city populations to work on housing individuals.. and they have never done this as well.
    City News actual leaves the city to go east of gta.. must have been a slow day news wise in Toronto. Only time city news does a report about Peterborough is if some falls through the ice on rice lake as the majority of the time its someone from the city of Toronto this happens to unfortunately.
    Wishing the city of Peterborough success with these tiny homes for people in need with the wrap around supports people may need and may be able to access faster.. And for the complete city of Peterborough and residence for this to be successful.

    The homeless people in Peterborough are not from Peyerrborough. Everyone knows they are migrating from Durham Region and Quinte West Belleville and Trenton. The city has to be open to helping folks that are indigenous to Peterborough wether they be from any background . Criminals and addicts should be arrested for crimes and ordered back to thier last known residence . Usually Oshawa or Belleville Trenton

      MIght be a bit of that. Most homeless people would be happy for an opportunity to get one of these, and would be incented to follow the rules. And another huge chunk of homeless aren't crazy at all, just down on their luck....they wouldn't trash them under any circumstance. If you went and meet some homeless people, you'd get a feel for what they're really like. All kinds out there on the street.
