Sean Orr got nearly four times more votes than Ralph Kaisers. In his victory speech, he honoured the memory of Myles Gray. Police out of politics, in Vancouver and everywhere. #JusticeForMyles #vanpoli #PoliceOutofPolitics

Poilievre announced that if he wins, he would pour $1 billion in tax money into a private 'treatment' sector; further reduce access to regulated opioids, while also reducing overdose prevention services; and that he would fire bureaucrats who disagree x.com/globepolitics/…

Just about everyone I know who died of OD had been thru treatment. Yet they’re still gone. If you ban (rather than expand) safe supply & supervised consumption, many more will die. You will “bring home” our corpses.

Warning by FNHA that nitazene is showing up in pressed pills in northern BC. Instead of expanding access to safe supply, this February the BC NDP cut it. They did the same to decrim. BC NDP lets drug users die when doing the right thing becomes unpopular. shorturl.at/cd3HW

My copy of Garth Mullins’s memoir “Crackdown: Surviving and Resisting The War On Drugs” arrived yesterday. From the dedication I can tell I’m in store for something special. Garth was the first and only person who described dopesickness as I experienced it.

Watching ABC Vancouver types offer emotional condolences over the death of Trey Helten who spent his life helping this city's homeless & addicted—after the ABC mayor & council have done nothing but wreck the chances of those homeless & addicted—has been grotesque #vanpoli

Trey Helten was nothing less than a hero. He saved hundreds of lives by reversing ODs, driving people to treatment & just being kind. Trey was a friend to Crackdown and appeared on the show twice. We'll never forget you, Trey. Rest in power. rb.gy/ztwctt

Trey Helten spent a decade dedicating himself to harm reduction in Vancouver's DTES. He saved countless lives. Trey leaves behind a partner, a teenage son & an unborn child. If you can, please donate to ease the burden on his family. 💜 tinyurl.com/bp69svba

I am very glad to hear the federal minister of health say that forced treatment does not work. Now all the provincial health ministers gotta listen. Crackdown podcast will have an ep on this out in a few days. cfjctoday.com/2025/06/03/hea…

The Alberta govt wants drug users to know—you can get sober or get dead. Even though total abstinence does not work for most people, families are being forced to make a choice: lock your loved one up in treatment or leave them to face the dangers of an unregulated drug supply.
