Albino Squirrel posted:There's only one clinic routinely providing heroin-assisted treatment in North America to my knowledge, and that's in Vancouver. If you're talking about Insite they only provide safe, supervised injection, not drugs. It's still whatever the person brings in from the street. However it's still a hell of a lot safer for them when that Heroin they thought they were injecting turns out to be Fentanyl since they're now surrounded by nurses, doctors, and a pile of Naloxone.

According to reports it's been popping up in an apparently non-insignificant amount of MDMA in Toronto also. One theory is dealers aren't exactly the most safe when it comes to cross-contamination (i.e. it could be accidental). And with something that potent that's loving spooky. Regardless, it's been occasionally killing club kids lately. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2017/04/08/1-dead-four-others-in-hospital-following-ecstasy-overdoses.html Mr Luxury Yacht fucked around with this message at 05:29 on May 25, 2017 |

So interesting development here in Canada on our similar Opioid issue: https://twitter.com/AndreaWoo/status/1531699777238208512?s=20&t=DVjQDYh0G9SMYYNU0Nh29g Feds announced starting next year (and in BC only for now), small amounts of hard drugs are going to be decriminalized. Up to 2.5 grams, with exceptions for schools and airports etc... No charges, no ticket, no seizures if under that amount. Amount is smaller than BC was asking for (they wanted 4.5g) but it's a start I suppose.
