Bro. You can't just say something is debunked and think it is so. That's not how science works.

People in Asian countries with much longer experience with opioids then Canada must think "safe supply" is complete insanity. Ask yourself, why do so many Asian countries have such strict laws against opioid drugs -especially selling these drugs which in most Asian countries is punishable by death. Its because they know the damage these drugs can do to a society - I guess Canada needs to learn this lesson the hard way. "Safe Supply" is complete craziness and people who continue to promote this foolish policy are either delusional or blinded by ideology.
 
I'm from Southeast Asia, have experience growing up and living in rough neighbourhoods, and fully support and understand the implementation of safe supply within the context of opioid recovery. Opioids in Asia too don't have the sheer toxicity of the North American drug supply. Opioids in Asia are also controlled by organized syndicates so quality control actually exists in these drug distribution and production networks.

Opioids everywhere are controlled by organized crime. Asian countries have very tough laws against Class A narcotics so you being from Southeast Asia must know this. Safe Supply is crazy and the jurisdictions that follow this policy pay a very heavy price for such foolish policy. Every police force in Canada is against these policies and the drugs given out as "safe supply" is being gobbled up by criminals and being resold. And how the people who thought of this nonsense didn't foresee this happening is truly baffling - its policy blinded by ideological ignorance.

Alberta's population is growing so Edmonton will need more prisons eventually.

Sure. Put them ANYWHERE else.

Edmonton gets three times more inmates put on the streets after their sentences than Calgary does. Even the prison near Red Deer brings their convicts here to drop them off. I get that rural communities don't have the capacity to accommodate prison releases, but Red Deer and Lethbridge are plenty big enough.

Spread them around other medium sized cities in Alberta under the guise of decentralization from Edmonton and rural development initiatives bringing stable jobs and government investment to rural Alberta.

Now twice this week where Bay LRT south of Jasper/104st entrance was impassable due to 2-3 folks blocking the stairs, smoking various things, unpacked bags.

Called Transit Watch yet again, but dont understand how there are not cameras or morning patrols to ensure this does not happen, period.

It's a weekly thing.
