It's not for everyone, and it doesn't solve homelessness on its own, but it is making a big difference especially for those that might be otherwise sleeping rough. Kudos to Nadine and everyone else who has made it happen!

Weird, I have a sub but I can't reach that page, it says it was moved. I did find it here:

BTW: Great story. It will give you background too on who helped this (Mr. Doyle, who owned Lot42) -- but he died in March, hence why that property was sold.

With a housing crises, you think they'd be open up to making tiny home communities, but with full plumbing, electricity and heat. Maybe Kitchener and Cambridge would be willing to do something like that, and as usual, count Waterloo out.
