The Children Of Don Quichotte

Something strange happened in the streets of Paris; tv and newspapers kept talking about a huge amount of tents sitting on the banks of Saint Martin Canal in the heart of the city.

This demonstration drew so much attention during Christmas holidays that President Jacques Chirac promised in his traditional New Year address to the nation to act and change the law for the homeless. He asked the government to work in the coming weeks to "put in place a truly enforceable right to housing" that would give the homeless the legal means to demand a place to live. (source: nytimes)
