Do not use our community as your campaign slogan. This is the most ignorant and deliberate attack on our human rights I've seen since Harper. I believe that's who you want to be and still want to represent when he is the cause of the poisoning crisis.🖕

Court also agreed: social context evidence is relevant for sentencing & that suspended sentences are a legitimate sentencing tool for street-based drug traffickers. This case is a helpful precedent for people who find themselves in these kinds of circumstances. #BCPoli #CDNPoli

@alanna_smithh I am not an expert on this subject, but it looks like they started with a conclusion and then worked backwards to make a report to justify that conclusion. Shameful work.

“It seems very strange to me as a family doctor that I’m co-ordinating a fentanyl sales program. But then, how many overdoses do you need to [attend to] before this is the program that you launch?” - @PHScss medical director Dr. Christy Sutherland
