Mr. Speaker, it is my honour to present three petitions. The first one is about homelessness and the need to invest funds in the supporting communities partnership initiatives, or SCPI, which is the national homelessness initiative.
It notes that there are hundreds and hundreds of people in Toronto alone who are at risk of homelessness. This program provides critical assistance to homeless people and prevents people from become homeless. The current funding will dry up by March 31, 2007.
Therefore, the petitioners call upon the government to continue this wonderful program for another five years.
