OTTAWA The city of Ottawa says all parties are working tirelessly to find a new temporary location for an emergency shelter for women, after the lease for its current location at the University of Ottawa was cut short by a month. Cornerstone Housing for Women says it has three weeks to find an interim site for its emergency shelter, or more than 100 vulnerable residents will lose their shelter. The shelter opened its site at the University of Ottawa in December 2020 after the city asked the organization to expand its capacity to accommodate a surge in demand for women and gender-diverse individuals experiencing homelessness for the winter. The city arranged for space at the university to ensure there was enough space for physical distancing to be maintained.
