Original Note:
Drugs have been decriminalized, they are not legal. People are not dying of overdoses as a result of decriminilization. This is a misrepresentation of the facts. Illicit and toxic street supply of fentanyl is causing the overdoses. Numbers are similar in other provinces. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/b-c-sets-grim-record-with-2-511-toxic-drug-deaths-in-2023-1.7093528 https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/opioids-more-lethal-common-on-calgary-streets#:~:text=Through%20eight%20months%20of%202023,according%20to%20new%20provincial%20data.&text=The%20numbers%20come%20amid%20a,funding%20for%20supervised%20consumption%20sites.
