Sad to see this garbled debate about overdose prevention sites in TO - people are sleeping in your laneway because we have a shelter crisis. The reason you are seeing needles in parks is that we are in the midst of a fentanyl epidemic. Don't mistake the treatment for the disease

To improve #Indigenous health, change expectations: It's not unfixable. By @picardonhealth @GlobeDebate #cdnhealth
theglobeandmail.com
If we accept, as fact, that change will take forever, that improving the health of Indigenous peoples is impossible, then it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy
