HALIFAX Liam Donnelly rushed to carry away his belongings Saturday morning as the tiny temporary shelter where had been living since April was being torn down by Halifax Mutual Aid, the group that built his and13 other shelters throughout Halifax. Thursday afternoon, Donnelly had moved into a hotel room paid for by the province after the Halifax Regional Municipality gave ultimatums to the people living in the shelters, and Halifax Mutual Aid to either remove or vacate the structures by July 13 or the city would take matters in its own hands. I signed the papers with Shelter Nova Scotia and I don’t know what went on after that, but by this morning there’s people here removing my stuff while they think I’m at a hotel, Donnelly said.
