What's it like inside a park encampment?
Manage episode 446762867 series 2401773
You've walked past them or through them. They're in every Canadian city and town. The result of the housing crisis colliding with the opioid crisis and slamming into a pandemic. And for all the reporting has been done on them, for all the politicization of the camps themselves and what they do to a neighbourhood, perhaps not much is understood about the people inside them. Who they are, how they got there, what they need to get back on their feet and where they might get it.
Today's episode, whatever you think of that encampment in your neighbourhood, is a chance to understand the phemomenon a little bit better.
GUEST: Brennan Doherty, reporting for The Local
