Drugs are not the primary problem for people struggling with addiction, they're a solution and a distraction from the pain!
Treat the trauma and you'll have a better chance at addressing the addiction.

He should at least know the population roughly. This shows how cavalier they are, even in the senate, about deciding to go to war! Is he even deciding or is someone telling him what to do? Is this how he and the senate make decisions on everything?

Oops. Pierre Poilievre’s campaign director really let her MAGA colours slip out for a while last night, with a post trashing Prime Minister Carney and the Oilers (same province her boss is running in a by-election 🥴)

It should be illegal for law enforcement to wear masks and not show ID.
This makes it too easy to impersonate law enforcement and murder people in their homes.

I know of seniors who have waited for 8+ years on the waitlist and others who have waited for a decade or more. You are so correct - government land should be used for affordable housing, not market rentals.
BC Housing is underfunded. Ex. 9 acres in #RichmondBC redeveloping but with only an increase to market rental instead of affordable units tied to income. Gov land should never be used for market housing.

You never know who you'll inspire when you share your story.
A couple of years ago I spoke at a highschool on overcoming addiction and it inspired these two to reach out and ask for help.
Today these amazing humans are coming up on two years of sobriety so a celebration lunch was long overdue!

I thought council was starting to go in the right direction but it seems our mayor is still playing favourites at the expense of the public. It's good Kash Heed is still fighting for transparency and ethics in how council is run because Richmond residents deserve to know.

My 6 overdoses all occurred after 6 recovery relapses, you're talking to the wrong person if you think supervised consumption sites "enable" addiction, they gave me and many others the ability to finally recover.
