Premier Ford addresses encampments

"You can't have people setting up encampments in beautiful neighbourhoods"

Premier Doug Ford spoke about a subject drawing a lot of attention here in Kingston, homeless encampments. 

In Coburg earlier this week, he spoke of responding to a ruling in Waterloo allowing homeless people to camp on public land. 

Speaking about the court case in general, Ford addressed his thoughts on encampments in neighbourhoods and cities. 

The Premier didn't comment on how he would find housing for those people in the camps.    

The encampment in Napanee has also been a major sticking point in the town for the last few months.
