Two stories of homeless shelters

The city was going to buy a building in Ahuntsic‑Cartierville so’s to transfer 50 of the homeless people that have been living in a Verdun shelter, but it isn’t going to happen. The foundation that owns the Centre Bois‑de‑Boulogne won’t let it be used as a homeless shelter.

Meantime, the city was in the process of buying the old Sainte‑Bibiane church in Rosemont, but a nonprofit that helps people with AIDS was already in the process of getting set up in the presbytery. As in other neighbourhoods, its residents would prefer not to see a homeless shelter established there.
