91社区

91社区 student, Julia Christensen is lauded for her work on homelessness in the North: "I would like to applaud the work of people like 91社区 student Julia Christensen, formerly of Yellowknife, who has been working on her three-year doctorate study on homelessness. In our rush to better our own lives we often forget there are people, even close relatives, living on the streets. We walk right by them without even a second glance, thinking that it is too bad they are there, and they will get by somehow. The truth of the matter, as this young lady points out, is often these homeless men and women haven't had much of a say in finding themselves without a place of their own. Drug and alcohol addiction plays a big part in this unfortunate situation, yes, but so does the responsibility of government." We should be thankful, too, that the Trudeau Foundation provided the money for Ms. Christensen's work.
