EDMONTON, CANADA - APRIL 18: A person, possibly struggling with substance or alcohol use, is seen sleeping on a public bench along the sidewalk in Edmonton's inner-city area, where the 45th Annual Good Friday Outdoor Way of the Cross takes place, in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, on April 18, 2025. Homelessness in Edmonton, especially visible in the downtown and inner city, has tripled since 2019, with nearly 5,000 people currently unhoused, over 1,200 of them chronically so. As economic pressures mount, agencies provide around 15,000 meals and snacks daily, while Meals on Wheels delivers up to 500 meals each day.
