NAPE delivered two port-a-potties to residents of Tent City on Friday. Shortly afterward, the City of St. John’s announced the washrooms in Bannerman Park will reopen at 4 p.m. Saturday.

Saturday marks two months since the first tents pitched in an open field across from Confederation Building to protest the homeless crisis in this province.
