The P.E.I. government will find suitable shelter, with a fixed roof, for anyone who calls its shelter support line, says P.E.I. Housing Minister Rob Lantz.

Lantz was responding to news that The Village, a housing advocacy group in Summerside, is looking for a property to create a tent encampment for homeless people in the city. The group has already purchased 26 ice-fishing tents.

The province is not collaborating or coordinating with The Village in any way, said Lantz.
