Sudbury's Matthew Klug who has been homeless for six months, says he was ordered by bylaw to tear down a structure he built beside his tent.
Klug, 45, has been homeless for six months and has been living rough outdoors in Energy Court.
"They come here on Sundays to hand out eviction … not eviction but demolish notes," he said.
"You know that’s what they are paying bylaw for to come here on Sundays to hand this out so we have to tear down our stuff. That’s well-spent money there, eh?"
Klug said he planned to live in the section they are ordering him to tear down if he doesn’t find a place before winter.
"I was insulating it and stuff and you know, apparently, this is unsafe because it might collapse because of the snow. But a tent is OK because that is going to hold the snow," he said.
