After many pleas from London politicians, the federal government has stepped up to assist with some big expenditures in London - including $11.3-million to keep Londoners in their homes, $5-million to help limit encampments, and $5.1-million for transit projects.

The Craig Needles Podcast is powered by Downtown London and Covent Garden Market.
