I agree we should build a homeless shelter right next to your house. And I'm sure you will be at the forefront to see that it happens.......
Lol buddy, you don't know where I live/work. No need to do that.
And where did I say "homeless shelter"?
Nice try at deflection.
And to continue the internet meme-- "I ain't your buddy, Pal."
I am not meming.
And it's not deflecting. I'm not talking about homeless shelters, I am talking about comprehensive, government-funded, public housing (it doesn't have to be shitty, look at what Finland has done). I am talking about safe injection sites. I am talking about social workers on the ground, every day, making sure that these people have what they need.
YIMBY. Bring it all on.
Finland isn't real. Fake news.
And yes, I am memeing, but only to drop this little doco re: Finland for the curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jt_6PBnCJE
Their program is a marvel.
I already have people sleeping next to my house so that would be a huge improvement. YIMBY!
Sure, but I'm in favour of more permanent solution.
