I work on the medical side of addiction treatment. Not doxxing myself and you can choose to believe what you would like but I see this policy as an absolute failure of duty to our youth and young adults.
I dont work in Vancouver but work with partnered organizations with reports from the public nursing teams in that area and the harm reduction programs.
Fair enough. But just from a different point of view, when I was 18 I injured my shoulder at work, quite severely. I went the Emerg, at Vancouver General, and instead of being given what I would consider treatment of an appropriate kind. I was handed a packet of 40 hydromorphine. I’d say the issue is a bit more widespread than just with the harm reduction system.
That aside, thanks for your insights into the issues with harm reduction sites. I hadn’t known that side of it, and that’s quite disheartening.
So you work in a harm reduction site in Vancouver?

Didn’t ask you to doxx yourself bud. I’m asking if you have direct experience with Vancouver specifically.
