  Ford says his government will introduce new legislation to dismantle homeless encampments and is prepared to use the controversial Notwithstanding Clause to thwart any potential legal challenges.

The article discusses Ontario Premier Doug Ford's announcement of new measures aimed at addressing the issue of homeless encampments in the province. Ford emphasized the need for a compassionate approach to help those living in encampments by providing them with housing and support services rather than simply clearing out the encampments. He highlighted the government's plan to increase funding for mental health and addiction services, as well as to expand the availability of supportive housing. The initiative includes working with municipalities to ensure that individuals are moved into safe, indoor environments with the necessary support to prevent them from returning to homelessness. Ford also mentioned the importance of community safety and the negative impacts of encampments on local businesses and residents, aiming to balance these concerns with humane treatment of the homeless population.
