Around a dozen people hit the streets of Lower Sackville, N.S., on Sunday to voice their concerns about the shelters that are coming to the community.
The group Safe 4 Sackville organized the march, and they say one of the main concerns was the Pallet homes at the Beacon House on Metropolitan Avenue, which sits near Leslie Thomas Junior High and Sackville High School.
Since the homes were placed, community members say open liquor bottles and discarded needles are a frequent sight.
“They deserve to have a safe space as well, and so do the children,” said Dawn Chisholm, a concerned parent who attended the march.
“It’s just an all around bad location and a lack of answers from any kind of official that’s really been [...] sore for the community.”
Beginning at the Academy Careers College, the group marched down Sackville Drive all the way to the Fultz House Museum and back carrying signs advocating for the shelters to be moved.
