Small Drug Possession Decriminalized in BC

I hope the Canadian government will have the courage to take the next necessary step, which is to develop safe supply. Previously, media referred to “drug overdose” deaths. The media has matured to recogize these not as being “overdoses” but “poisonings”. People are taking non-opioid drugs, but the drugs are laced with fentanyl, resulting in them being stronger and more dangerous.

I go for a walk every morning. Within the past two weeks I came across a fentanyl poisoning. I phoned an ambulance while anothe Samaritan administered naloxone. Together, we prevented another drug poisoning death.
