Guest: Victoria Gibson, affordable housing reporter

Hundreds of people looking for a place to stay are being turned away from Toronto's shelter system every night. As winter arrives and the weather gets colder, encampments are being cleared, temporary shelters in hotels are closing and the shelter system is operating at or near full capacity. It is a cold, desperate situation for many. Affordable housing reporter Victoria Gibson joins "This Matters" to talk about the many issues those facing homelessness face right now.

This episode was produced by Brian Bradley, Paulo Marques and Raju Mudhar.
