The real issue here is that when tackling something like this...it really needs to be a coherent, cohesive and comprehensive plan from start to finish.
It cant just be: "We'll put them in public housing and that'll be that! Problem solved!" *dusts off shoulders*
Or: "We'll implement mental health initiatives!!" *pats own back*
Or: "We'll build drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities!" *dusts off hands*
Because if its not all of them in something resembling a plan then the house of cards is going to crumble.
And I should caveat that considering the thread we're in, that this is not at all unique to Vancouver or BC, if you want to tackle the problem, then tackle the problem. Otherwise you're just playing 'Whack-a-Mole' with the symptoms.
