Funding for the Liberal “National Homelessness Initiative” runs out at the end of February. The Conservative “Homelessness Partnering Strategy” starts handing out money on April 1.

Patrick Stewart, chair of the committee, talks about the face of homelessness among aboriginal people. http://www.lnhs.ca/ [5] " target="_blank"> >> get more info
