You cannot simply move people out into the woods or into an industrial area, there are no services there and you're basically dooming them by isolating them even further from employment, food, care, etc.
I get it, I have friends who live on Waterloo, I don't live far either and walk to work every day past tents, there are people in very difficult positions, however I feel that vilifying them is not going to help anyone get back on their feet. I say hi to folks I pass in my neighbourhood, treat them as humans, and I hope others do too.
