We are losing 6 people EACH DAY to the ongoing drug toxicity crisis, but the government refuses to budge from their failing, ideological “Alberta recovery model.”
We must do better!

The deaths are brutal but the other issues don’t make the news - amputations, brain injury, kidney damage, infectious diseases, open wounds, STBBIs, grief, malnourishment, chronic lack of sleep, burns, etc.
Nobody tracks it and nobody connects the dots. cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/…

NEW: Alberta drug poisoning deaths have been updated. Thanks to @elsthomson's calculations we know the year over year mortality increase from 2023 over 2022 is 18.2%. Were also on track for over 2000 drug poisoning deaths last year. The "Alberta Model" is a failure. #ableg

The VPD arrest of @DULFBC founders is an act of political and moral cowardice.
When law and policy is unjust, communities have no choice but to act.
CDPC unequivocally asserts our support for DULF founders and their life-saving work.

I do not want a police officer involved in my care if I have diabetes, an infected tooth, a STI, heart disease or cancer. Why in god’s name would I want one if I’m having a mental health issue?

I debated posting this. But the article by @globeandmail about the proposed “Compassionate Intervention Act” in Alberta is just wrong. It’s hypocritical and wrong.
