Interesting article. It's sad that some people were too skeptical to take the cards. I guess I would be as well. My ex-husband was on the streets for a few years (schizophrenia), I wish someone would have been so kind to him. Actually I'm not even sure where he is anymore. I'm hoping he has a roof over his head now.

We always have people panhandling at the freeway exits. I never know whether I should give them money or not. It would be nice if I could get their story instead of just handing some cash out the window before the light changes.

Some people say that they don't want to give homeless people money because they'll spend it on alcohol (in this case the LCBO) but I think I'd need a freakin' drink if I was on the streets night and day!
