So sad that in Ireland they are tormenting #cancer patients for medical #marijuana use -- this is truly pathetic and needs to change #cannabis lnkd.in/eyiqWD4f

We judge people who use (certain) drugs We judge people who are living with an addiction We judge people who are experiencing homelessness We judge people who want a safer supply We judge people who seek treatment. We judge & wonder why people continue to struggle alone. Stop🛑!

It's a drug poisoning crisis! Not everyone who relies on the toxic drug supply has an addiction, but many do. Others use less frequently with no problem. This is why we need both immediate access to safer substances and detox and treatment.

Our goal shouldn’t be for Overdose Prevention Centers to become a permanent part of the healthcare & social services systems. It should be to change those systems (that created the need for OPCs in the first place), to where we may not need them at all in 20-30 years or so.
