Housing and Homelessness Coalition

Yesterday on the program we told you that close to one hundred contract workers for Muskrat Falls will live on 5 wing Goose Bay for about a month. The hotels are packed and there's no where else for the workers to go. The Town's mayor Leo Abbass is ok with this temporary move, but we wanted to know what the housing advocates thought of it all. Jennifer Hefler Elson is the treasurer of the Happy Valley Goose Bay Housing and Homelessness Coalition. She joins Colleen Connors in our Studio.
