Homelessness in Canada's smaller communities

from The Current

The number of homeless people in smaller cities, towns and in rural communities is climbing. We hear from two mayors who are grappling with the surge in people experiencing homelessness. We'll also hear from Tim Richter, the founder of the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness, and the co-chair of the National Housing Council that's advising the federal Housing Minister, on what the solutions he's pushing for.
