With an update from CK News Today, I'm Tamara Thornton. This news is brought to you by AutoMotion, 505 Richmond Street in Chatham. The old location for Chatham's main encampment will remain tentless. Several people living in tents on Thames Street were forced to move in July of 2025 as the
municipality began work on its Thames River Slope Stabilization Project. Most of the people who were displaced ended up moving next to the Public Utilities Commission property on Grand Avenue East, which remains the biggest encampment across Chatham-Kent. After more than a year, the slope stabilization project has officially wrapped up.
This led some to wonder if the encampment may move back to the area. The municipality says it's no longer a suitable location, after CK's council created a new by-law restricting where tents can be set up. A recent fire in Chatham has been deemed suspicious.
That was the opening. The rest of the episode (3 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
