We are currently collaborating with the Direction de l’habitation of Ville de Montréal, which is responsible for the Action plan for a better sanitation in dwellings, to better understand Ville de Montréal new policies, strategies and procedures (central departments and boroughs) with regard to the sanitation of dwellings. We also collaborate in finding ways to improve collaboration between the City and the Direction de santé publique (DSP) and to better understand their respective responsibilities as well as the possible role of CSSS (centres de santé et de services sociaux), in such files.
With the observations and experience it has gained over the past years, our office can contribute positively to the improvement of municipal mechanisms against substandard housing.
