If we're going to stop what we see as chronic homelessness\u2014and I see this every day\u2014of people who have lived for 30 or 40 years on the streets, we need to respond to the needs of people when they are young. We need to have strategies in place to prevent homelessness.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6479706\" data-originallang=\"en\">We see huge waves of young indigenous people arriving in the streets of Montreal. We need strategies. We need programs to respond specifically to those needs, so that we're not, 30 years from now, trying to provide services for people who have chronically spent 30 years living on the streets of urban cities. </p>",
