Winnipeg

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The Manitoba government says it's offering emergency hotel stays and a per diem to people displaced in a mass eviction at a Winnipeg apartment building last weekend.

Dozens of people were forced to move out of 285 College Ave. with little notice after a sign posted at the front entrance said the complex was being shut down.

The organization's executive director, Marion Willis, said Street Links was among groups, including End Homelessness Winnipeg, that met with Manitoba Housing, the provincial Residential Tenancies Branch and other government departments on Thursday to discuss a rehousing and support plan for those who lost their homes.

A spokesperson for the province said Thursday it was covering the cost of emergency short-term hotel stays for those who couldn't find alternative accommodations.

In the meantime, Manitoba Housing is trying to expedite applications and match people with suites, while the Residential Tenancies Branch continues to investigate what happened, Willis said.

Displaced tenants will be connected with home essentials through Oyate Tipi Cumini Yape, an organization in Winnipeg's North End neighbourhood that redistributes used houseware and furniture, she said.
