 Tent City or should I say tentd cities...that is what dots the landscape of Hamiltons community.  

Our city officials cannot blame it on Covid-19 (though that surely didn't help) long before Covid reared its ugly head, the LRT light rail line talks were birthed.  Now a city of empty homes and appartment complexes sit mocking us, while the homeless numbers skyrockets.
