Columnist has common-sense approach to homelessness

Re: Homelessness eliminated in Vancouver? Here's how

Finally, someone is articulating a simple strategy to alleviate the disaster we have in the Downtown Eastside. Sometimes in the midst of political posturing and kicking the can down the road, there comes a breathtakingly simple solution where you bang your forehead and say, “Duh, why didn't I think of this before?” We have spent many millions of hard-earned tax dollars trying complex solutions to no avail. Thank you, Ian Mulgrew, for articulating a common-sense approach to this seemingly intractable problem.

B.C. bureaucrats, please look at this win-win solution and deal with this embarrassing blight in our wonderful city.
