This was the most surprising thing I’ve learned as a councillor. All festivals and events pay their own policing costs, on top of the 21% they get of our entire budget

The very same people that Pierre Poilievre promised to ‘bring home’ drug-free are now, by Poilievre’s own definition, ‘fentanyl kingpins’ who should be imprisoned for life.

My latest in @thetyee.ca:

Just about every sale of fentanyl would apply, clogging our justice system. Time for a logic check.
