I have never had the time for homeless people. I know, its very cynical, but I've travelled all over the world and I have seen real poverty with my own two eyes. There is just no excuse to not have a job and contribute to society in Canada. We are given way too many opportunities to let it get to the point of homelessness. Plus, drug addiction and alcoholism are no excuse in my books.
Last year on the news City TV followed a "homeless" woman around as an expose piece and discovered she was in fact not homeless at all and pulled in something like 100K a year in unclaimed income. She was the shaky lady or something because she pretended to have Parkinsons. It was sickening.
