According to Somerset councillor Ariel Troster, when the City of Ottawa amped up police presence in the ByWard Market this Summer, it pushed more of Ottawa’s vulnerable residents into Centretown. As a result, it has placed ‘additional pressure’ on resources in this neighbourhood. Here to explain further is Brenda Knight, a Board Member with the Centretown Community Association. Last week, Ontario’s Premier announced that the province has started consultations on expanding the number of health problems that are treatable at pharmacy centres. Doug Ford defended this decision on Monday, saying that it’s one of the most popular decisions that his government has made. His critics beg to differ.
