    Not sure about Canada, but in the US:

    Homeless = no permanent residence, which also includes couch surfing, parents and children who just fled an abusive family member and are temporarily ltaying with friends or relatives, and people who are living in their car. All people without a home.

    Unhoused = homeless people that don’t have a roof over their heads. Might include living in a car.
