A ride on the homeless shuttle
CBC’s Jennifer Yoon rides on the bus that attempts to ferry homeless people to shelters, and explains how social distancing has reduced the number of beds available and puts people at risk. Some new shelters are opening, one far from the usual downtown haunts, over by Viau. A second, heated shelter is promised on Cabot Square, and the relatively new soccer stadium on Papineau is being requisitioned to serve as a shelter for homeless with Covid.
