Edmonton's record of 110 frostbite amputations hits unhoused heavily
Most of the victims were men, often in their 40s, unhoused and addicted.Jackie Carmichael (Edmonton Journal)

'Edmonton's unhoused feature heavily in record 110 frostbite amputations.' Puts the onus on Edmonton's duty of care (or lack thereof), rather than making the unhoused an accidental casualty.

I thought it was quite the indictment of #yegTransit that some of the people who needed amputations other than unhoused people were newcomers to Canada *waiting for buses.* 😳😱😳
And given our city's constant push to destroy any semblance of stability for unhoused people, I was genuinely shocked that there were not MORE amputations among that population. 😢😡
