Homelessness is a symptom of the problem of drug addiction. Stop enabling drug addicts in the DTES. Stop wasting taxpayer money. Then, provide quality shelter and support in drug-free housing throughout Vancouver. Start to encourage and reward personal responsibility. And stop wasting taxpayer money.
