I myself have suffered in the past from addiction and temporary homeless conditions. After a few days of feeling inspired I decided to carry a camera with me and started to document what I saw for the next two week's I gathered together a archive of photo's and with the help of a friend we produced a video which we aptly named THE OLYMPICS' TOOK MY HOME This video is currently hosted on over fifty websites throughout the world. I also started a WEBSITE called 2010homelesschampions.ca '' WHO NEW'' Today I'm so looking forward to the coming event's surrounding the Olympics' and the plight of this neighborhood Here is the link to this video http://www.2010homelesschampions.ca/olympic_impact_on_homelessness_i.htm THESE PEOPLE ARE FREEZING
