That's huge news.

Hopefully not too many of the SCS's have shut down prematurely, like Ottawa's Somerset West Community Health Centre's did (March 1st).

They seem to have gotten the funding. Do you know what the work of the Hart Hubs will look like for drug users if it’s explicitly being framed as not a space for people to access safe supply, supervised consumption or needle exchange?

What a fucking waste of hard working taxpayer dollars to fund police brutality and intimidation and violence. Money for health and education. Not for this kind of thing. Police need to be defunded. Abolished. Gaza is freeing us all from any facade. We are not free. Far from it.
