After injunction, Nanaimo wonders where 300+ homeless people will go
NANAIMO — With downtown Nanaimo tent city residents forced to vacate the camp within 21 days, many are wondering where the hundreds of homeless people are supposed to go.
It was a question asked repeatedly in comments on NanaimoNewsNOW‘s story about the injunction order on Friday.
“There is a housing crisis…have you tried to find a place over this last year?” one woman wrote.
“So the people that leave that property are to go where?” another said. “Unless they stay and decide to go to jail, they still have no option for low income housing, or detox, or rehab, or a mental health housing complex.”
