Thunder Bay-Superior North MP says she will advocate for any available funding for the city to support shelter village plan.
THUNDER BAY — Patty Hajdu says she will “fight like hell” to make sure Thunder Bay gets its share of federal funding, if available, to address homelessness in the city.
In an open letter issued Friday, Thunder Bay-Rainy River MP Marcus Powlowski said the current proposal for the village is unfair to residents and businesses in the south core and he cannot support it at either of those south-end locations. He suggested establishing the village on unused land in the intercity area.
As a former executive director of Shelter House Thunder Bay, Hajdu said she knows social disorder is distressing for residents of the south core.
