Original Note:

Increases in younger age groups made up a disproportionate number of deaths from overdoses. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/230112/dq230112c-eng.htm https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/71-607-x/71-607-x2021028-eng.htm https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/statistics-canada-excess-mortality-nova-scotia-1.6826998
