Janice lost her job after a physical disability kept her from working.
Unable to afford her rent, she looked for a cheaper place, but there were none. And the wait for subsidized housing was more than 10 years long. Janice considered committing a crime to live in jail rather than end up on the streets.
Her story is similar to so many Canadians. Faced with rising costs of living from inflation, they have to make tough choices - feed themselves, or put a roof over their heads.
Inflation in Canada keeps rising - impacting the costs of gas, food, and housing - and hurting the most vulnerable who already live close to the edge of the poverty line.
