About the song:
Reflecting on how the current pandemic has exasperated the homeslessness crisis in his hometown, Coffey says: “‘What This City Needs’ came out of a despondent sense that I have that the city I live in hates poor people. It’s never been more apparent than during the COVID-19 pandemic.
There’s a provincial-wide order to stay home, yet bylaw officers are tearing down encampments in parks where our neighbours are staying to ride this out. I get there are no easy answers… But how can people stay home, when they don’t have a home to stay in?”
