Municipal leaders in Mississauga are urging the federal government to provide support for asylum claimants following the death of an asylum claimant at an encampment outside of a shelter in Mississauga.
According to Peel Regional Police, officers responded to reports of a sudden death at an encampment on Dundas Street East, just east of Dixie Road, on Wednesday morning.
A man in his 40s was found inside the tent without vital signs and was pronounced dead.
Mayor Patrick Brown of Brampton called for immediate action to prevent further deaths as cold weather approaches.
“I don’t normally call people together spur of the moment, heartbreaking knowing there will be more deaths,” Brown said.
Global News’s Sean O’Shea reports.

That same Mayor of Brampton gave $100,000 to Islamist interest groups in order to fight Quebec's Bill 21 on Religious Neutrality more than a year ago. And now he dares to ask for more money from the Federal. Is this guy really fighting for the Canadians or he is just pandering to every foreign minority in the country?
This is a war and people die. One person dies and it is a tragedy; 500 die and it is just a number?
Legal immigration is a controlled immigration but what we have is unacceptable. People need to stay in their own country and take care of themselves. Canadian citizen live paycheck to paycheck so how can we help people from other countries.
almost all of the asylum claimants are economic refugees….they're just after a job/ free welfare. We have a lot of CANADIANS living in the park across from us….they're permanently homeless because they can't afford apts anywhere in S ONtario. (not even the small towns.) Too bad we're not worried about them as well.
It’s a federal problem that’s been dumped on the provinces to deal with. The wildly irresponsible system the feds have utilized is killing ppl. But hey, as long as it gets Trudeau a seat on the UN what matter?
The death of an asylum seeker is more importantbthan all the homeless Canadian citizens dying in the cold inside of tents?
So when a third or fourth generation Canadian, whose family has paid into the system with hard work and taxes for over a hundred years dies, not a peep? But someone who just got here dies and there is a giant press conference?? Any death is sad, and anyone coming here for a better life who is willing to work should be able to get it. But, let us face reality, many homeless Canadians die each year with not an eyebrow raised.
Maybe Patrick brown could give them his personal arena time to shelter in the arena. He took it during covid, so this winter shouldn't be a problem. I mean, his hockey sticks and bag say hes the "great one". What a clown
I have been hearing a lot of comments regards sending these people home that are asylum seekers. Has anyone stopped to think sbout the conflicts, destabilization and economic devastation our governments has caused in Africa. The riches County but the poorest nation of people. Don't blame these people for wanting a beter life, blame your corrupt, thieving, murdering governments. Britton, American, Canada France, Spain, Belgium and your Pope! History is here for everyone to know.
That Nigerian guy with that fluffy arctic bear looks like a very promising future for Canada. We (the government) want to be a third-world country, no problem, bring millions of millions of people from those countries.
he died of carbon monoxide poisoning because he was sheltering outside? you mean he was using a propane burner or something inside a tent? i mean… i am guessing he didn't arrive through the proper channels.
Africans should be asylum seeking in the south. Winter is coming…
It not even minus 25 yet. Just wait until then
I'm not paying taxes for these criminals to come here!
Theres always money to fund foreign wars though
The best form of "help" the federal government could give, is start rejecting and deporting "claimants". They passed through the US, and do not qualify for refugee status here. Sometimes you need to be cruel to be kind.
“Canada my dream country!”👍😁🇨🇦
Send them south
Time to end asylum programs in all countries. Canada and America's systems have all but failed. There are more victims seeking asylum dying in North America than there are things to flee in South America. The criminals are flooding across the continent while actual asylum seekers are endlessly waiting. Dying in the name of humanitarianism is a fool's death.
Where is Doug Ford? My friend Waldo is trying to find him, and even he is having a hard time.
Cruel how the poor,homeless,human beings are being treated in this country.Stop talking,act "now"!This is inhumane!
Have credit and cash bounce of eachother and pay your tithes to the powers that be. Those are the keys to building a house building empire. Also when scouting potential employees don’t look at the history or references or even etiquette for that manner. One simple test: shake their hands and if you feel callous, hire them on the spot, it’s a testament to their character as it’s something you can’t teach as opposed to on the job training.
"Gonna come but hasn't yet" Incompetent governence. Learn from the UK. Deport to rwanda
The only sad thing is Canada has become a welfare country for the world
Probably kicked out of the four star hotel Trudeau gave him too.
Boo hop maybe stay home next time .
This open border ideology that doesn't discriminate between actual asylum seekers and economic refugees is completely out of control.
No! I’m already paying for the refugees coming to BC, I can’t afford to pay for the ones going to Brampton too. This isn’t governments money to spend and if this mayor gets money then other mayors will want money. NO!!! We have to SLAM the brakes on mass migration.
Asylum claimant, oh is that what you call people who don't belong here
Send them home !!!!!!
Unless all levels of government co operate, especially the Feds, this will be the first death of many homeless poeple.
It's unacceptable for the poeple who's job it is , in some circumstances who are housed, are paid, given great perks, pensions and prestige , to let anyone die on the streets anywhere in Canada , refugee or not. No one should be left to die as a victim of being homeless in Canada.
Canadian citizens should not be homeless , nor anyone else seeking refuge in Canada.

This is horrible. This would not have happened if Trudeau didn’t spread the idea that Canada is open to everyone. Now we have every folks that’s not ready for our winter flocking in droves.
why speaking out just take those people in your house?
A plane ride back on a Canadian airplane is easy
Canada is presently only sometimes a safe haven for some. Is the govt out of cheap plywood to build a roof over someone's head?
How many of these homeless people are these outraged speakers taking home. Pls lead by example
Quit letting these people in. We have no room for them. For gods sake.
Foreigners, refugees, asylum seekers cost Canadian taxpayers billions of dollars, it’ll never be enough and they continue to be bussed into the country. Canadians can’t afford to house and feed themselves let alone hundreds of thousands from other countries
