Canada's Federal Families, Children and Social
Development Minister, Ahmed Hussen, announced on Aug.7, the government would
give $276 million to support the development of affordable housing units and
beds in Peel County, Ontario, over the next 8 years. Peel comprises the cities
of Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon. In 2019, Peels regional council endorsed
a housing plan that would build 5,364 rental units, 226 supportive units and
find 60 shelter beds by 2034.
This is all very interesting: one may well wonder
what the homeless will do for the next 14 years. Mr.Hussen may expect people will
cheer, but the only thing worth cheering would be a society without anyone
being homeless.
S.P.C. Members.
