Writer supports establishment of camp/shelter for homeless

Writer supports establishment of camp/shelter for homeless

I was shocked the other day to hear that Courtenay council, and apparently also the RCMP, oppose the establishment of a formal camp/shelter site for the homeless. According to one of the volunteers hosting a small awareness gathering at Simms Park on Nov. 13, city council prefers to keep the homeless scattered around the city “out-of-site” and out of mind. Apparently it’s an optics thing. It is unclear when optics became more important than human life. When did our humanity go off the rails?
