Prevents death by 91%!!!! Who is making this up? It’s obvious to me that these decisions do not know anything about addiction - the harm reduction advocates are so misguided. They need people who have been addicts and recovered to make decisions. People who have no idea what addiction is or how to recovery are making insane decisions that are killing our youth, increasing deaths, ruining communities, no public safety. Every city and town across BC is over run by those who need help, real help to get clean, safe, and stop this madness!!!!
I wish "they"(bleeding hearts) would STOP "normalizing" drug addiction. It is NOT a NORMAL way to live. It is NOT NORMAL for my grandchildren to see dead bodies in the allies, to see people shooting up on the sidewalk in front of their school! To see and experience their 13 year old schoolmates dying from a safe supply overdose! Children learn what they see and hear. The family unit crumbling, for decades now, because both parents have to work just to survive. Society as a whole is crumbling. I hold every bleeding heart, every politician responsible for all these deaths. It is basically legalized murder. The root problem is mental health and poverty. FIX IT! "No good deed goes unpunished" This is where I am now. I used to be a helper, compassionate, empathetic. I have been assaulted, spat on, called horrible names, stolen from. I'm done now. All burnt out. The more we give, the more they take. And I'm not the only one.
Agreed! The public needs to step up and do something! It’s SO bad! I am willing to join a petition, write letters… whatever it takes - and it will take ALOT to go against a government that is clearly benefitting from this insanity… it is heartless and cruel to allow this to continue… Six youth died 2 months ago from purchasing ‘dillies’ - it DID NOT EVEN MAKE THE NEWSPAPER… business as usual!!!
The drug addicts social support industry is pushing to have taxpayer-paid free drugs handed out to all that want them. They want to make chronic drug use an acceptable lifestyle.
Drug addicts will become a new supply of helpless "children" that will require 24-hour full wrap-around services at an annual cost of about $100,000+ each.
On the positive side, crime should go down and hundreds of thousands of social workers will be needed. That employment surge in needed services will create a big jump in the GNP.
The negative side cannot be overlooked.
In 1949, (due to weak governance for decades) China had an estimated 20,000,000 drug addicts (about 4% of the population). How many will Canada have if we let addictions to run without check? Using the same percentage, it could rise to 1,600,000. Can anyone deny that Canada and BC in particular has weak governance that is getting weaker all the time?

I could go on but you get the idea.
