Organizers of a Vancouver compassion club say they will continue to distribute tested cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine despite a rejection from Health Canada, calling it the only way to save lives in the face of a toxic drug supply. cbc.ca/1.6568839
LONG THREAD: As many of you know I’ve been hospitalized for almost a month. Here is my side of what I experienced. Stigma and discrimination is alive and well in medicine unfortunately. Here is just some of what happened to me.
Retweet this if you stand with health workers.
"Simply put we are failing. With six people now dying every single day in our province, the status quo cannot be accepted" - B.C. chief coroner Lisa Lapointe. The OD death toll: 201 people across B.C. last month. Six deaths per day. All preventable. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…
I wish the public was in love with bupe the way they are in love with the idea of vivitrol. And I could publish a whole book on vivitrol horror stories, including patients trying to cut their shot or naltrexone impant out with a box cutter as well as OD deaths at the 25 day mark
The overdose crisis is getting worse everyday. Today staff at the Moss Park Injection Site reversed 14 overdoses. We are seriously concerned with the increase in overdoses and deaths. Government inaction at all levels are to blame.
I spoke to several families in B.C. about what they would like to see changed as the province examines its Police Act. They have strong views on the current oversight system: "(As) a watchdog, they’re like a toothless Chihuahua.” vancouversun.com/news/local-new…
“We don’t do heroin — it’s fentanyl down here.” But on Wednesday, as B.C. entered its fifth year of the #DrugPoisoningCrisis, #DTES residents got tested drugs without toxic adulterants. thetyee.ca/News/2021/04/1…

Great new study in @TheLancetPH, showing a significant decrease in fatal overdoses in the Toronto neighbourhoods surrounding supervised injection sites - a 67 per cent reduction in overdose deaths in neighbourhoods within 500 metres of the sites thelancet.com/journals/lanpu…
do this to every bike lane in the city!
This weekend, we installed new Even Better Bike Lane protection on S Dearborn St between 10th Ave S and Rainier Ave S. These are often called "Toronto-style" barriers (though we call them extruded curbs).
This would literally destroy the North American airline industry. Build the loop. (Updated)
@seattledot @typewriteralley @Spottnik Paint and flex posts are unsafe. Please create safe lanes with real separation. These are death traps
i. am. going. insane. 😵💫
@christineeboyle @Lucyincanada @reddyforchange @OneCityVan It’s so frustrating and baffling to see @Vote4ABC councillors promote ped friendly ideas, but then vote against bike lanes and lowering traffic speeds. There’s a lot of talk and little ambition to take bold action for safer streets
@seattletimes You have an obligation to explicitly say in your post that the vast majority are from King County rather than burying the lede. You all know how incendiary a tweet like this is. Do better.
@PtFry @Lucyincanada Thankyou for joining! I hope we can count on more bike friendly policy from greens on council in the future!
And this is why paint and flexposts aren’t enough.

BREAKING: The Seattle City Council just passed legislation sending the 2023 Housing Levy to the ballot this November. council.seattle.gov/2023/06/13/sea…
When cops seize drugs, overdoses doubled -study. This is why VANDU fought for decriminalization for 25 yrs. Because of our fight, cops in BC are no longer allowed to seize your dope (if you have it for personal use & its under 2.5g)
It doubled. We asked how overdose changed after law enforcement officers seize opioids - any quantity of opioids - from someone in the community. Overdose doubled. (link down 🧵) 1/

3) NO ONE, literally no one, has said that LEAD, which is a pre-booking diversion option, is "restarting the drug war." They're saying that PROSECUTING AND JAILING PEOPLE FOR USING DRUGS is restarting the drug war. Agree or not, but don't wildly mischaracterize.
just an incredible amount of misdirection and dishonesty in these few short paragraphs on Seattle's decision not to pass a law empowering the city attorney to prosecute people for using and possessing drugs.
and even that window dressing like shoreline will cost a lot to do if we are going to spend the money we might as well get this right. we only have 1 chance to fix this road in my or my kids’ lifetime
If Seattle "fixes" Aurora by doing a carbon copy of Shoreline, the project will be a failure. The path of injury, divided communities, and economic stagnation cut by Highway 99 extends straight through Seattle and straight through Shoreline.
For too long, our neighborhoods have not been built with proximity to peoples' everyday needs in mind. As a planner, I see the clear disparities between other districts and D2. That's why I'm proud that today, my amendment to the Housing Levy resolution passed unanimously!
townhomes, stacked flats, condos, who cares about the details. we need more homes per lot, this is good. the city should help get these possible crosscut.com/politics/2023/…
