Greta Thunberg is held prisoner by Israel at a jail in the Negev. Read what Sweden’s embassy in Israel reports are the conditions of her detention ⬇️

Hey Danielle Smy here is a recovery story that isn't fabricated.

On February 18th 2013 I was brought back to life at a supervised consumption site and I'm now almost 13 years sober off all drugs!!

My kids wouldn't be alive if harm reduction and recovery didn't exist ....

This is a MUST listen!

The mother who was falsely represented by the Premier of Alberta for clicks spoke out this morning.

Danielle Smith fabricated a story about a family who has simply chosen a sober lifestyle.

This family deserves an apology.
