@anita_rotheram how long do you think it will take before the province decides to scrap its "Alberta substance use surveillance system"?
if you don't know the real numbers, there's not a problem. that's usually the other tactic they use for health care related stats, right?
@singlemaltgirl Yeah, forever - UCP’s favourite move is the double down on bad policy…. No data, no problem, n’est-ce pas? 🥺
@anita_rotheram 💯 that's the consistent strategy. that, & shutting down any ethics investigations.
@anita_rotheram
Yes.
Harm Reduction Works.
This is a proved fact.
It requires a change in laws, a lot of people and funding.
But if we spend even ¼ of what we do now on the "war on drugs", it could easily happen. Not only will many lives be saved. But the narco terrorist will lose, and that's a National Securty win.
