Story at Bruce Wark's website "Warktimes.com" in Sackville...
"The mother of a young daughter who lives in a three-bedroom home on Squire Street appealed to town council last night for help in solving Sackville’s housing crisis.
Ashley Legere, who works for a non-profit organization finding housing for 185 homeless people in Moncton, says she is now facing homelessness herself.
“As of Saturday, my rental has been sold and I have three months to move out of my home, the only home my daughter has ever known,” she told council.
Legere explained that her rent is $1250 per month including utilities, but that so far, the only comparable housing she can find in Sackville is an unaffordable $2400 monthly with nothing included."
