The #TruckerConvoy2022 protesters harassed staff at an Ottawa homeless shelter for food today and staff had to give them food to get them to leave.
Ottawa has a sizeable homeless population, not enough shelter spaces and it was -30 today. #ottnews #cdnpoli

In the Zello channel for the truckers, one guy says they’re basically homeless cause no one will feed them.
There is a Loblaws an eight minute walk from the Shepards. They’d have sold them food, if they were willing to put a mask on to come in the store #ottnews

I live down here, so I see these homeless folks a lot.
Since the pandemic, I’d say an already large homeless population has doubled, with decreased supports.
When they manage to get a few bucks, they put their mask on, go to the Loblaws and buy some food.
It’s not hard!

Final point on this. It was -30 today & the homeless folks were wearing literally everything they own after sleeping on the street at night.
How could someone who drove to Ottawa, had a hotel and was properly dressed feel it was ok to take food out of mouths of these folks?
