Did we "deal with whats in the hopper" before the latest immigration policy? We haven't been building shelters or even normal housing since well before the COVID migrations. This red herring keeps popping up in all of the discussions around decaying social programs. Hospitals, schools, housing, homelessness, transit.. they were all decaying well before any waves of immigration and they will continue to decay when the immigrants stop. But then we will have to find something else to blame for the decay instead of looking inwards. No immigrants moved to rural Ontario and their hospitals will continue to close down. Rinse and repeat this discussion on any social issue.
