About Safe Supply® programs is how they put drug traffickers out of business;
Two founders of a Vancouver drug user advocacy group that distributed what it said were safe doses of heroin, cocaine, and methamphetamines to prevent overdoses have been charged with drug trafficking as a result of police raids last year.
And then, there’s this – at what point does an “emergency” make the transition to status quo?
More than 14,500 people in British Columbia have died from drug overdoses since a public health emergency was declared eight years ago.
Government getting involved .. Jumping in bed .. With criminals and drug addicts.. Can not end well.. They have nothing to work with except profiteers and liars.. If you are at the point of hard drugs.. 80% OF YOU ARE LOST..
And all the well meaning Bla bla bla cant change this fact..
“Vancouver Coastal Health’s website says the Drug User Liberation Front Society received $200,000 of public funding in 2021-2022. Solicitor General Mike Farnworth said the contract granted to DULF was for “drug testing,” not to buy drugs, and when the government found out it had been doing so, the contract was cancelled.”
Yet again, it would be better if governments made a pile of money and just set it on fire, rather than doing the stupid things they do after extorting it from the people.
It was foreseeable that any plan to distribute drugs would result in more drug use, and that there would be people claiming to be doing good, who continue to create more harm.
I don’t think anyone claimed that Safer Supply would put drug dealers out of business. In any event, there’s exactly one way to do that short of becoming North Korea: full and total legalization.
Sure, full and total legalization. Only if they are isolated far away from civil society, then let them be free to do all they want, without the rest of us having to support them monetarily, and clean up the mess leftover.
Feel free to isolate yourself. You are already supporting them monetarily and drug prohibition has done nothing to fix that.
But, God forbid, you try to light a tobacco cigarette on a sidewalk within sight of a playground.
Heroin, yes.
Tobacco, go to jail.
I think the important thing to remember is that in BC its unsafe for health care workers not be vaccinated with the genetic slurry.
Its for the Greater Good.
If I’m going to have genetic slurry, I expect a fringe on top!
I’m told that in Vancouver, it’s provided by a Crown corporation: “Slurry British Columbia”.
Leftists make a lot of money from suffering and death while they pretend to be saviours. Evil people.
That’s an average of 5 BCers a day dying from overdoses. Now how many didn’t die from their OD’s? When I was driving cab I picked up a nurse one Sunday night who told me that she had worked the ER all weekend and had the same girl in for OD’ing 3 times. They stabilized her, released her, she went back to the party and OD’ed, lather, rinse , repeat.
very very easy since its the Farce See ‘Em Pee involved the charges are based on a technicality given the ‘suspects’ were very open about things and l ‘suspect’ they therefore would refrain from bona fide trafficking
They’ve hired so may immigrants, it’s now the Farsi MP…
The part I like best is that the BC NDP now has to burn its cash on expensive TV commercials during the Stanley Cup finals to try and beat down a surging BC Conservative party in the polls.
Do stupid things, expect stupid results.
FAFO, as the kids say.
We are attempting to evade the laws of evolution and it will not end well.
The inability control appetites for drugs, alcohol and food is surely largely genetic.
Letting the addicts die is intolerable but so is artificially keeping them alive and encouraging them to breed more addicts.
I have no idea what to do.
“Letting the addicts die is intolerable but so is artificially keeping them alive and encouraging them to breed more addicts.”
Remember the government-sponsored TV ads trying hard to normalize drug addiction?
Something like : “Meet Paul. Husband, father, accountant, little-league coach…drug addict.”
Disgusting.
