On behalf of the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association I would like to stress that Northwestern communities, like all communities across Canada are struggling with housing affordability. This includes housing of all types. Please see the paper attached below Solving the Homelessness, Mental health, and Addictions Crisis in the North. It outlines 8 recommendations that we would urge you to consider. We are happy to discuss with you further on how you can help serve our communities in their time of need. Please reach out to NOMA, FONOM, or NOSDA to work together. The homelessness crisis in the north is becoming more prevalent and severe and there is a great need to make housing more affordable to get people housed and bring more people to our community to support economic growth and prosperity. You may reach out to NOMA by emailing admin@noma.on.ca
