Today we introduced Bradley’s Law in honour of Bradley Lowe, his family, his story and his fight.
The Houston government’s choice to deny enhanced income assistance to people living in tents is cruel, plain and simple. This government needs to help people get out of encampments and into stable housing — not make it harder for them to survive.
Homelessness has tripled in Halifax under this government’s watch, and affordable housing remains hard to find. Taking support away from vulnerable Nova Scotians only pushes them further into poverty.
Shelter is a basic need whether you’re living in an apartment, a house, or a tent. Bradley’s Law would ensure that people aren’t denied the income assistance they need simply because they’re homeless.
Thank you to Jackie Lowe, Bradley's mother, for joining us to share Bradley's story.
