pointing out that the @bcgreencaucus offered to keep6 (politically) for the @BCNDPCaucus and bring the @BCLiberalCaucus to work together right now to expand real accessible #SafeSupply and the government said no we'd rather let thousands die #bcpoli bcgreencaucus.ca/post/letter-to…

I get the importance of having safe supply for opioids but mean while stimulant users are still dying due to very limited access to safer stimulants which only generic Dexedrine or Ritalin is available with coverage. We need stimulants like Desoxyn to support stimulant users

Roger should not have died. Roger should not have died alone in a parking lot. Roger should not have had to take toxic drugs. His death, like so many, is a death by #DrugPolicyFailue. Thank you for your voice Irene <3

But this is a more aggressive step in targeting people who are congregating downtown, with the city planning to amend bylaws to make it easier to arrest/evict people for open drug use, setting up tents, defecating or engaging in 'nuisance' behaviour cbc.ca/news/canada/br…
Today I organized the UNHBC traditional drummers to come to work today and while they were showing up, overdoses on the sidewalk, two older guys shared a shot then both dropped hard.
Opioid substitutes that separate people from the toxic street supply could save lives, especially in a worsening poisoned drug crisis. Why do these treatments remain inaccessible to the vast majority of B.C.’s opioid-dependent people? thetyee.ca/News/2021/06/0…

Why can’t gov. let people be who they are and be supportive of that. 😠😠😠😠
if six people died every day in april, you can assume more people are dying now. they dont say anything at the public health emergency briefings because they think you don't care as much as they dont care. they are making you complicit in #SocialMurder #PoisoningMassacre #bcpoli
Is it a suicide mission when people have no choice? No readily available options? Do people choose bathtub gin when there is Tanqueray or Bombay available? Regulated supply will change the world as we know it. People need a choice. No one chooses death. #deathbypolicy #cdnpoli
@kwardvancouver @momsstoptheharm @bcyadws @CoreyRanger @JulsBudau @DrMtyndall @CANdrugpolicy @cultrsaveslives @bcgreencaucus @sarahblyth @InsiteVan Isn’t it a suicide mission now to take what are almost certainly poisoned drugs? Even if given a safe supply, addicted ppl will still use the risky drugs because they’ll be even cheaper and more plentiful—and the hunt and the risk are also highly addictive.
@ABlowyourself @Averyflash @momsstoptheharm @bcyadws @CoreyRanger @JulsBudau @DrMtyndall @CANdrugpolicy @cultrsaveslives @bcgreencaucus @sarahblyth @InsiteVan what the doc dont get is that they're not replacing a drug, but a drug MARKET.
@Averyflash @kwardvancouver @momsstoptheharm @bcyadws @CoreyRanger @DrMtyndall @CANdrugpolicy @cultrsaveslives @bcgreencaucus @sarahblyth @InsiteVan Literal drug users: “we represent a community and are in several activist organizations and we want a safe supply and access to safer prescribing alternatives.” Someone else: “nah see drug users won’t go for it, they like almost dying”
