Municipalities have witnessed the significant uptick in homeless encampments, presenting complex challenges and diverse impacts on local governance and community welfare. This case study explores three unique court cases concerning homeless encampments, focusing on the municipalities’ bylaws and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (“Charter”) obligations. By comparing these cases and their outcomes, we aim to identify the key factors that determine the success of various strategies in managing and mitigating the impacts of homeless encampments through the application of municipal bylaws.
