    Ill chime in as someone who lived here 20 years ago and just recently moved back. Overall London is a beautiful city. Great parks, beautiful trails, great and abundant food. However, the homeless just smoking meth and feynt in the middle of the street is mental. Variety stores selling spoons and tin foil and I suspect some of selling the actualy drugs.. Markus Mini Mark comes to mind.. I know it happens in every major city. Here it happens across the street from the Police station. They need to clean this up. Downtown and Dundas the middle half atleast needs to be dealt with. Just going to keep loosing businesses and people. If they clean it up it will thrive. Sure you can move to a less homeless part of the city but out of sight does not mean its not happening. Im not going to leave the city. We need to clean this up

    what did the city really do with that $25 million dollars ??? they were supposed to have these hubs, and cancelled, they need to build tiny homes and give back their dignity and self respect to the homeless, its a damn shame that the city of london doesnt care, there is absolutely nothing down town to see or to shop, nothing, not even a decent grociery store, put people where it is close to shopping .

    As a filmmaker and one who works directly with unhoused people through the church, I can tell you categorically the filmmakers have "spun" parts of the script to suit their own narrative. For example, not only have they omitted the root cause of homelessness they have minimized the devasting effects of addiction which is the number cause of homelessness, and left out the fact that in my 10 years of experience 90%, if not all, who are suffering from homelessness are suffering from addiction to hard drugs - fentanyl, crack, crystal meth. It's rather elementary: drug addiction causes poverty and poverty causes the inability to pay one's rent. It doesn't take a genius to figure out why the problem has proceeded to worsen to the point of crisis. It's because the authorities and agencies, for some weird reason have, "misdiagnosed" and misacted that the crisis will continue to worsen. I guarantee it. How do I know? I know because history always repeats itself... simple as that.

    another piece of evidence of fake organizations to torture and traffick vulnerable population - which is apparently what all modern societies revolve around. So clearly, this is the most important population in society. Thats why they work so hard to force and keep as many people as possible destitute.

    @darrylcpreston4043 6 місяців тому

    I was very familiar with London in the sixties, and I can agree with today's concerned people that the problem has certainly worsened in the past 20 years, but the roots were obvious in the eighties, when the downtown changed from a pleasant shopping area to a bombed out mess in a very short period of time. You can't blame Ford and Trudeau for that [though they are both poor leaders]; local politicians looked the other way as industry left town and people fled to poorly planned suburbs. Meanwhile, Kitchener-Waterloo [and sometimes, Cambridge] replaced London as southwestern Ontario's main creator of jobs and technology.

    It takes over 3.5 years now to evict a bad tenant in Ontario. That is the true nub of the problem of homelessness. Too many landlords have been driven out of business by the inferior Court of Ontario. Tenants need landlords, not communism.

    Homelessness in America and Canada are caused by drugs addiction and mental issues. Just look at them, how do they find a regular jobs with the way they present themselves to the world? They don’t even make an effort to “act” and “dress” like they are ready to work. Not a housing supply issue. They use our compassion for too long. It’s time to be tough on those people. We have paid too much tax for no reason.

    You say there's not enough housing spaces for people that need it yet there's a number of churches that have got church halls there's no reason why the church halls could not be used at night for the homeless people a couple of blankets and the pillow the churches have got a kitchen and toilets that's all you need for someone to sleep in the church a truth is the churches refuse to help...

      @JanetRoss-rg7qf 21 день тому

      Not so. Here in Sarnia, a church opened its doors to homeless via country services and when the weather got warmer, there were barely any there. They want to be in a tent city where they can do all the drugs they want, not supervised in a shelter.

  • @tertur2957
    @tertur2957 6 місяців тому

    The problem lies with more immigrants and refugees than we can handle, coupled with housing being treated as a commodity. Both these things can be controlled by the federal government. There is no need for an individual to own several properties to rent out and exploit others.

    London such a sad place to live in . I see this footage and so depressing to watch . I could not watch till end . City mega depressing giant absorber . Worst thing is that London has less than 2000 hobos yet it seems city has 10% of population being homeless . That is how politicians wanna show us against the real problem which is lack of political determination to solve homelessness crisis . In other small cities is even worse . In Windsor 2 hours away from London and much smaller city there are 570 hobos in total yet looks like half of city is homeless . What the fuck !! Pathetic and embarrassing!!

    So sadly for the homeless it’s everywhere in Canada. I’m not sure what the answer is but I believe it started at the top by the Liberal government. He does not care about Canadians. Trudeau is in government for himself and no one else. The Liberals have destroyed this once amazing country that I am no longer proud of to call home. We have to get him out of his power trip and bring Canada back to the once prosperous beautiful country it once again was.
