ICYMI: Calgary park dedicated for man who lived on Sunnyside streets yyc
Paton spearheaded an application for the city to consider dedicating a green space for Wilkinson in 2019, which city council approved in 2021.
“He broke our hearts open and he made us see something that we haven’t seen, and that is the fact that a person who is faced with homelessness is a person in a situation of vulnerability,” Gondek told the crowd of about 50 at the park Sunday. Wilkinson was the youngest of five siblings born in Ontario. While his older siblings were raised by family members, Wilkinson was raised directly by his mother, who also struggled with addiction.Article content
