You have to put yourself in the shoes of people experiencing homelessness. Up until now, the timelines were very tight. We were telling these people that we could help them for three months, but after that we weren't sure what we could do for them. So, on the one hand, we put them in an even more fragile state. We can't give them the opportunity to settle down, for example, because we don't know ourselves what to expect. So we're also creating very tight timelines.
On the other hand, the envelopes, in their current form, do not allow us to intervene on the five axes of Quebec's homelessness policy. They are very specific about what can and cannot be done. Unfortunately, when these amounts are offered through emergency envelopes, it does not allow us to have a holistic approach. So it's important to offer these monies through regular envelopes, so that we can provide real support to people who are on the street right now.
Maybe this has already been resolved, but we don't know, since we don't have any information about it.
