Appliquer le couvre-feu et ses mesures pénales aux personnes en situation d’itinérance revient à criminaliser une personne pour la seule raison qu’elle vit dans la rue, un résultat inacceptable dans une société libre et démocratique;

[TDP/PCC Ottawa @TDPOttawa]

Le couvre-feu imposé au Québec contribue à marginaliser davantage les personnes en situation d’itinérance. Le PCC supporte la pétition déposée par la Clinique juridique itinérante de Montréal. https://t.co/zRQbdMyJsi

Will the exemption for ‘individuals who are homeless’ in Ontario’s new stay-at-home order truly work to protect some of our most vulnerable citizens during the pandemic? The exemption must capture the diverse experiences of being homeless. We offer some guidance.

“Canada has an established pattern of criminalizing poverty...homeless people are criminalized for seeking many of the things they need to survive, such as loitering, panhandling or sleeping on a park bench.” https://t.co/jF6mrt7RkL

"Policies put in place to abet homelessness during the pandemic could pave the way for a bigger institutional change, and even propel the push to end homelessness altogether."

[The Dream Team @TheDreamTeamTO]

The pandemic has thrown homelessness — and the potential to solve it long-term — into the spotlight. https://t.co/LcebkQ3nES #recoveryforall @CAEHomelessness
