Montreal adopts more tolerant approach to homeless encampments

A homeless encampment is seen against the Port of Montreal, in Montreal, on Wednesday, Aug. 27, 2025.

Inspired by a policy in Longueuil, Que., boroughs in the city will now have to identify where encampments will be allowed to set up. Encampments in other locations will be moved to the designated areas instead of being dismantled.
