A collaborative effort in Calgary, Alberta, has successfully built Canada’s first village of tiny homes to help rehabilitate the city’s homeless veteran community. The village welcomed its first tenants on Nov. 1, 2019, and hosts of people online are celebrating the inauguration of this incredible resource for ex-servicemen and women.

“The idea behind the village is to bring the veterans together so that they can interact and support each other,” veteran support worker Don Mcleod told CTV News.
