This whole thing is such a farce. The province should accept a big part of the blame, they let these people stay when the camp was first set up on the courthouse grounds (provincial property) instead of kicking them out to begin with. Now the problem has grown tenfold, and unfortunately the City of Victoria has to deal with it. VicPD has already released stats that crime in the area has doubled since last year.
What that area needs is a fucking firebomb right in the center of it.

Yup, it's been a burden on everyone in the area and is an eyesore.
The province and the city both purchased property to house these people and many of them refused to leave.
My sympathy level dropped through the floor when they started comparing the social housing offered to them to aboriginal residential schools. Fuck them and their exaggerated political agenda.
