"When we asked participants to envision an ideal model of safe supply," write researchers Jack Farrell & Sean O'Callaghan, "many described programs which ... directly align with DULF’s compassion club." Canadian Drug Policy Coalition filtermag.org/research-compa…

📢New Blog: "Unpacking Police Statements on Drug Seizures: What Do We Know?" Police statements can vary widely in accuracy, as seen recently in Belleville & Prince George. But even if based primarily on assumption, they can drive fear & influence policy. drugpolicy.ca/unpacking-poli…

Very grateful to listen and learn from Nicole Luongo 🍉 Nurse Ranger 💊 and Dr Lysyshyn. Toxic drugs have to be removed from the supply. We know what makes it worse, and we know how to stop it. vancouver.citynews.ca/2024/03/19/bc-…

We’ll gather as a community tomorrow to discuss a way out of the 8th anniversary of the drug toxicity crisis that has killed so many of our members, friends, and family. We have formally invited David Eby, Jennifer Whiteside, Adrian Dix, Ken Sim, and Elenore Sturko to join us.

8 years. Over 13,000 dead. Eby, Whiteside, Dix, Sim, and Sturko couldn’t be bothered to show up to a packed DTES town hall. “No wonder they couldn’t show up to look us in the eye. They’re gutless cowards. No one is coming to save us, so we’ll do it ourselves.” - Garth Mullins

“We don't want people to die hidden in alleyways. We don't want any more families to have to grieve their loved ones. We want effective solutions. And we know that criminalization is no solution. This is a step back.” Read our statement here 👇 #bcpoli drugpolicy.ca/for-immediate-…
