Human systems engagement, design and policy planning. Upstream prevention pro. Health, justice, socio-economics, (in)equity. And drugs- definitely drugs.

Auditor General of Ontario today. @ONgov was/is aware their elimination of #CTS sites increases harms, incl. deaths; ED visits; increased public drug use; increased drug debris; harms are disproportionally in the north, and certain people.

I am proud to join this group calling on the Ontario government to refrain from using the notwithstanding clause against the most vulnerable in our community. All citizens are entitled to protection of the Charter.

@JayKyleWeir @robdeutschmann closed. there will be corpses.

Part of our appeal to Regional Council this week begging for emergency help b/c of Ontario's Bill 223. P.C. MPPs have been warned by their own internal advisors and others of the harms, including deaths, certain to affect all constituents. #DropTheAct #YesToCTS

With gratitude to @ColinDMello + @isaaccallan for the original journalism. #DropTheAct #YesToCTS

[WRDrugAction @DrugActionWR]

Seen today in Kitchener. Expecting discomfort for everyone, everywhere. And deaths. The Ontario government is very intentionally bringing discomfort to every constituent they were elected to serve and protect. #DropTheAct #YesToCTS
