Rustad vows to dismantle tent cities
PRINCE GEORGE – It is a pretty quiet scene at Moccasin Flats, the remaining tent city in Prince George. There was a similar scene at First and George until that camp – Millenium Park – was dismantled by the City last year. And that is exactly what BC Conservative Leader John Rustad has promised to do if he forms government: Bring an end to tent cities “once and for all.”
“We look at these situations, the tent cities that we’ve seen crop up. We are seeing crime not just within tent cities, but beyond. Within the neighborhood, within the area. Drugs are commonplace throughout this. And occasionally we also have situations of violence.”
