Addressing the toxic drug crisis requires evidence-based #PublicHealth strategies, not punitive measures targeting people who use drugs. Research shows that punitive drug policies contribute to stigma, deter people from seeking help, and disproportionately structurally disadvantaged communities.

40 mg is 0.04grams. Fentanyl on the streets is sold as a point. 0.1 of a gram. 10 points equals 1 gram. 1000 mg equals 1 gram. 40mg is a minuscule amount. Basically every single person using fentanyl would be locked away for life.

Alberta’s decision to weaponize public health by undermining vaccine confidence and misusing the COVID-19 Vaccine Task Force is a reckless disregard for the public’s well-being. Albertans deserve evidence-based leadership. #PublicHealth #HealthJustice #VaccinesWork

La décision de l'Alberta de politiser la santé publique en sapant la confiance envers les vaccins et en détournant le Groupe de travail sur les vaccins COVID-19 est une négligence irresponsable envers le bien-être de la population. Les Albertain·e·s méritent un leadership basé sur les preuves.
