Back Home and Homeless September 25, 2024

Excellent interview, Pete. Very articulate response to an unfortunate situation.

[@ForeverYoung8593]

This is a video everyone that doesn't understand homelessness should watch. Absolutely excellent. An amazing couple.

[@gidget4971]

This woman should be very proud of herself. She is well spoken and easy to understand. I think homeless and drug addicts need to be separated and give the homeless a better chance. That helps with half the problem. This woman makes me see the truth and struggle some have out there. She is loved..❤❤❤❤😊😊😊

Thanks Pete. How heart breaking.

[@tylerdurden8378]

You'll notice the full story never comes out. They always leave out a lot of details and only include the parts that make them seem like the screw ups weren't their own fault.

[@WEEIRISH]

Thanks Pete! I remember your article on David Scott from March 2020. He was charged with 16 Criminal offences in Cobourg, most of them Dangerous Weapons.

[@Lois-AnneJohns]

Is this the same David Scott thats in the video? Weapons charges. Isn't he from Oshawa? That paints a different picture. Sounds like a dangerous guy.

[@Lois-AnneJohns]

@@WEEIRISH isn't this woman Tara Robertson?

[@WEEIRISH]

⁠@@Lois-AnneJohns Same guy. And yes, that is Tara Robertson, not Lara. She has not been in Cobourg for about 6 years. I know there is human excrement all around the gazebo there.

[@Lois-AnneJohns]

@@WEEIRISH I heard police just picked her up in front of Dollarama.

[@WEEIRISH]

@@Lois-AnneJohnsUnfortunately, I do not doubt it. There is always 2 sides to every coin.

This lady deserves a place to call home !!!

[@billprawecki3739]

Thanks for sharing this with us ….. so sad ….. great for her to share their experience ….. different perspective from some of the folks in the encampment. Great to hear that her Cobourg doctor still helped out. With no drug issues why could the county not be able to house them in one of the new units on Elgin/Darcy … btw …. Who was the chap with red vest.

But wait you can walk into a restaurant with a service animal but not a Shelter ?

[@tam7236]

Pretty sure these are the two I saw walking from the Walmart area with four chopping crats full of all kinds of stuff. Honestly any store manager would have seen this and thought it was odd, not a missing tooth. Terrible situation all around.

[@nanciemabee3365]

And they could take a 1 bedroom..suck it up

[@debb534]

She said they don’t steal. Those carts are stealing. Someone needs to send her the memo

[@debb534]

Who gave her the $8,000 loan.

Pretty Sad state this Country/Province of ours is in, I am a Transgender person (Joanne) I am on the verge of homelessness. I have a Job but not even part time hours. I have a home which in a month or two I might lose, hardly any belonging, debt. I do have a car which will be my last salvation of residence.. For me and my Cat, I guess compared to this couple and their dogs I have a lot going. I wish there was more to offer you. But HOPE. Doug Ford Come sit with these folk or Even myself . or anyone else in Ontario right now We are all hurting, We are not lazy There is just Nothing........ No good jobs, No housing, No access to proper Health Care, GovT assistance. You name it Doug What would you like are ASSes to DO?
