Thtt us S r ie Cndian Chaporidyue1 011 Why After a recent local meeting about housing issues, 1 was talking with a young woman. We discussed the great need for affordable housing and the lack of any funds for building. Suddenly, she looked me right in the eye and said, "Why do they hate us?" 1 was taken aback and saddened by her question but not puzzled. This was shortly after reading in the newspapers about plans for drug and literacy tests for those on welfare. do they hate us? The young woman is on the waiting list for subsidized housing. The money she earns is not sufficient to cover the cost of renting a decent place to live and the other needs of her small family. The estimated time she will have to wait for a place is five to seven years. By then her children will be almost grown. Her situation is very discouraging but on top of it, she has concluded that people in need of assistance are hated. "Hate" is a strong word to use but at that moment that was how she felt. It seems to be the fashion to blame those in need of support and to forget that most of us are just a divorce, major illness or job loss away from money troubles ourselves. We also forget that Jesus said "Love thy neighbour as thyself' not "Love thy neighbour as long as he or she is financially self- sufficient".
