I’m here at the UDI luncheon where David Eby just admitted what I have long been saying — that the NDP was wrong on "safe supply" & decriminalization. We must never forget that Eby only reversed course on "safe supply" when a leaked Health Ministry presentation confirmed that

Advocates in my home province of Newfoundland recently held rallies coast-to-coast to raise awareness about the seriousness of the addiction crisis & the need for a robust recovery-oriented system of care. The time is now.

Hard to watch the suffering & difficult to comprehend the policies & people responsible for it. There is only one way out - the way me, Tom & many others made it out - Recovery!
Yesterday I walked Skid Row with Senior Advisors from @HUDgov from LA and Washington DC. You all know I've been homeless and addicted to heroin and fentanyl. But what I saw yesterday, the suffering, the chaos the mental illness, the addiction, the trash, the filth, shook me. 🧵

🚨BREAKING🚨 Pharmacies in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside are PAYING patients for their “safe” supply drugs to rake in dispensing fees—exploiting the vulnerable for profit. This has to end—full stop.
The approval of yet another pharmacy in the Downtown Eastside has renewed questions about B.C.'s "safer supply" program, less than a year after a leaked government document revealed troubling allegations about dispensing practices in the neighbourhood. https://t.co/v8QkmFpL83

Some of us have been warning since 2020 that "safe supply" is based on pseudoscience. Evidence shows it has caused addiction, fuelled fentanyl use & deaths and enriched organized crime. Everyone who pushed "safe supply" needs to be held accountable. https://t.co/4zmvkbj9Xl

Carney’s fentanyl czar says he has “no authority”. So who’s in charge?? Mark Carney continues to ignore the opioid crisis while fentanyl is killing our kids and enriching organized crime syndicates. Carney Liberals are all talk, no action. https://t.co/Gnq1gQ2wA0

The addiction crisis has killed more Canadians than the Second World War. Mark Carney's Liberal government has supported policies that flooded our streets with poison that is killing our people. Bring treatment and recovery to give our people healing, hope, and a drug-free

Almost 53,000 Canadians are dead from addiction since 2016 under the Liberals. We still lose 20 people daily. Fentanyl flows into the Port of Vancouver by the tonne yet only 1% of shipping containers are searched. The Prime Minister must prioritize stopping fentanyl.
A few weeks ago I visited the Port of Vancouver. Our ports connect Canadian businesses to trading partners all around the world. Canada has what the world needs — and with Canadian workers, Canadian materials, and Canadian ingenuity, we will meet that demand.

The whole drug legalization apparatus needs to be shut down & everyone who caused harm by pushing it needs to be held accountable.
Why did US taxpayers fund the war chest that Canadian HIV/AIDS activists used to drive drug legalization & “safe supply”? @DrJBhattacharya @KevinSabet @Twolfrecovery @sheldonbailey

Over 52,000 Canadians are dead from overdose since 2016. Overdose is the leading cause of death for youth aged 10-18 in B.C. Our federal and provincial governments must take this crisis seriously NOW. @MarkJCarney where's the plan?
