Christine Porter, right, executive director of the Ally Centre: "We’re here in solidarity for folks who are living in tents and abandoned building in the hopes that this homeless situation will be looked at seriously by the CBRM." IAN NATHANSON/CAPE BRETON POST - IAN NATHANSON/CAPE BRETON POSTSYDNEY, N.S. — Patti McDonald has a message for Cape Breton Regional Municipality council and other community leaders in the region: try living outside for a night and see how homelessness feels.
A rally gathered outside city hall on Friday morning from persons supporting New Dawn and the Ally Centre's joint proposal for affordable for those most vulnerable.
The joint proposal from New Dawn and the Ally Centre — which came together weeks after it was learned that the CBRM was awarded $5 million from a city stream portion of RHI funding — consisted of a 20-24-unit facility to go up in the Mira Road area that would house the CBRM’s most vulnerable in desperate need of housing and include on-site harm reduction needs.
The supporters later filed into city hall, many of whom got a seat in the council chambers gallery, while others watched a livestream of the meeting in a nearby boardroom.
