since last fall, CPC/Poilievre's attacks against the federal government's safe(r) drug supply policy was purposeful misinformation about drug toxicity and the opioid overdose crisis (as particularly focused on British Columbia). As a testament to that misinformation, PeePee released a video that used a homeless encampment in Vancouver as a backdrop... that attributed community addictions to a “
failed experiment”; to the, "
deliberate policy by woke Liberal and NDP governments to provide taxpayer funded drugs, to flood our streets with easy access to these poisons".
Poilievre's "solution" to combat the overdose crisis is to tighten up borders, arrest drug dealers, and force people into recovery... you know, essentially what had been the status-quo!
PeePee sponsored an 'Opposition Motion' that took aim at the federal government's harm-reduction policies for drug users, focusing mainly on, "its decision to fund the supply of pharmaceutical alternatives as a replacement for certain illicit drugs to combat the opioid crisis" - the so-called safe(r) supply!
In a too-bad, so-sad outcome, Poilievre's motion was just defeated - 209 to 113:
