Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe is pledging to end youth homelessness in Canada’s Capital. He made the announcement earlier today at Ottawa City Hall, targeting 2030 as the original endgame. During his message, he explained that adult homelessness typically starts in the youth stages of life, and that November’s City Budget will feature several measures and investments to push this fight in the right direction. The municipality has already invested $82 million in affordable housing since 2022 and is on track to surpass $100 million in this term of council. Emily MacLean, a Housing Coordinator with Operation Come Home, believes this goal is 'attainable'. She joins Kristy Cameron with her reaction on today’s Ottawa Now.
