👉Réhabex has launched the "Réhabus," a mobile service providing showers, laundry, snacks, clothing, and social worker consultations for the homeless in western Quebec. Starting Monday, the bus will travel through Gatineau, Pontiac, Petite-Nation, and Maniwaki. Patrick Pilon, Réhabex's general manager, emphasizes the program addresses unmet basic needs. The CRIO supports the initiative, noting the region's growing homeless population due to the housing crisis. The $275,000 annual program is funded by private companies and entrepreneurs, offering a unique service to those in need.✅ . 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞, 𝐎𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨'𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭.

👉The Canadian federal government is exploring the option of purchasing hotels to convert into refugee housing centres, as asylum seekers continue to strain housing and social services. Immigration Minister Marc Miller stated that buying hotels could be a cost-effective solution, providing housing and services to claimants awaiting case processing. Ottawa has already funded approximately 4,000 hotel rooms for 7,300 asylum seekers this year. Between September 2021 and January 2023, nearly $94 million was spent on hotel accommodations. Alternatives include creating reception centres, such as the one in Peel Region, which offers temporary shelter and support services.✅ .

👉The District of Sault Ste. Marie Social Services Board (DSSMSSB) is urging the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) to expedite eviction hearings as it faces $58,000 in unpaid rent, a 20% increase from last year. CEO Mike Nadeau attributes the issue to a 12-month backlog for eviction orders, which hampers DSSMSSB’s ability to address problematic tenants and maintain a safe environment. Nadeau emphasizes that eviction is a last resort, noting the board's responsibility for emergency and homelessness services. He calls on the Province to accelerate the tribunal process to ensure fairness for all tenants.✅ . 𝐁𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚-𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐝𝐚 𝐟𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭!

👉Residents of a downtown Halifax encampment express a preference for sleeping in tents over utilizing a newly opened $3 million shelter, which one resident describes as "like a jail." Ric Young, residing in the encampment for about six months, toured the new 50-bed shelter at the Halifax Forum and expressed concerns about privacy and security. The temporary shelter, operating 24/7 until the end of August, was established through a partnership between the province and the Halifax Regional Municipality. Despite offering additional capacity, some residents find the shelter less secure and supportive than their tented community near city hall. Critics argue for better use of the funds, advocating for increased benefits to aid housing affordability.✅ .
