Supervised consumption sites don’t “enable” drug use, they provide health care for people who are already using drugs.
You shouldn’t have to be drug free to access health care! My last overdose was at booth 5 and I’m now almost 12 years sober. That wouldn’t be possible without harm reduction.

My mother was diagnosed with stage 4 RCC in 2018 and is still alive and kicking. The Canadian healthcare system has been absolutely amazing.
If she was in America my parents would have been bankrupted years ago.

B.C. Premier David Eby has just announced the creation of two more involuntarily care sites: one in Prince George and one in Surrey.
This will double the number of sites in the province, and Eby said his goal is to have them in every region of the province.
