'Homeless' Dave begins hunger strike over Vancouver poverty

APTN National News
In one of Canada’s poorest neighbourhoods, a former homeless man stopped eating food last Friday at noon.

He argues the housing crisis in Vancouver is intensifying and the poor are being squeezed out of the only place in the city they can call home.

He promises to remain on his hunger strike until his demands for social justice are met.

APTN National News reporter Rob Smith has this story on “Homeless” Dave.
