message: I remember a year or two ago about city officials in Toronto piling up a bunch of homeless people and sending them to Vancouver. They claimed they were doing this for their own good since Vancouver's winters aren't nearly as cold. A little different than the examples here, but still seems like homeless dumping.

message: "Dumping" also refers to police officers driving homeless people to the edge of the city and dropping them off, it also refers to hospitals and police taking homeless people and mental patients to trail stations and bus stations, buying them tickets, and dumping them on to the train or bus.

message: Overall I think your article is incredibly comprehensive. I think within your history section, you could improve by adding in more context or evidence-based situations or particular cases where patient dumping attracted national attention. I think this would help make your claims stronger in sentences like, “The practice of patient dumping continued for several decades, and in the 1960’s, it was brought back into the public eye by the media, but not much was done to resolve the issue.” Within your section of "Factors associated with homeless dumping and patient dumping", I think you could benefit by adding some of the mental illness factors that play a role in the practice. When I think of the term homeless dumping, many questions arise because it is a foreign concept to me. I would want to know more about how often instances of homeless dumping occur and if this is a global issue or just something that occurs within hospitals inside of the United States. Great start on your article!

replies: text: Homeless dumping →  – NGRAMS results show that this is by far the most common term, homeless dumping does not even show up. Dumped patients may or may not be homeless, there is also "international patient dumping" where an immigrant is deported to their country of origin. (t · c) buidhe 18:10, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
