Responsibility, accountability, transparency, real treatment solutions are needed to fix our drug crisis

“How can you tell me that the harm reduction policies that we’ve been implementing around drugs and drug policy in general has been working? You can’t.”

I said it. Because it's true. It's time for drug prevention and recovery. @SecKennedy @drdrew https://t.co/lRFSQeYmmh

@LFPress @JackAtLFPress They need to approve maximum heights in this city or it’s a waste of time

[Susan Stevenson for Mayor of London @StevensonLDN]

Diane Chandler's death is one of eight Foxglove overdose deaths since the

'first-of-its kind' supportive housing opened in 2022 in BC.

“raises important but thorny questions as to a permissive approach to housing the most vulnerable people.”

Tragic. https://t.co/TAKcUiGWxd

So Chuck is the voice of homelessness in London

[Susan Stevenson for Mayor of London @StevensonLDN]

"We put an ambitious goal out there and we've made significant progress toward it. I don't think we're going to stop until we know that we have the number of supportive housing units in the city that we need," Morgan said.

No reflection?
No public input? https://t.co/9UOtiwdLwV

An excerpt from an email detailing many disturbing events at or near Indwell’s 403 Thompson Rd highly supportive housing which opened Oct/23. The email was sent to the Mayor, all Councillors and 3 MPs last July/24.

I will be asking for an evaluation of the community impact and an opportunity for course correction before moving forward with even larger buildings. This has 44 units while the one at 644-646 Huron St will have 82 units.

Who not seize the opportunity to address the serious concerns being expressed about our current model? #LdnOnt

@StevensonLDN Of course Chuck is front and center - she and her crew are calling all the shots behind the doors

[RecoverLondon! @RecoverLondon]

@MayorMorgan Can we do some substance free housing?

[RecoverLondon! @RecoverLondon]

@CoryStenn When did the axe incident occur!!?

[Kelly @NorthEndStrong]

To me, just as crazy as the libraries turning into safe consumption sites, is the idea that we need more "safe-supply"/dilaudid in Hamilton. Listen to this public health sub-committee meeting advocating for this. 1🧵

Some people want to live in tents - unpopular opinion I see with my EYES

The provincial "Your Way Home" plan, which was going to stop new encampments along the river didn't last three months.

Sex Offenders Make Up Large Share of Homeless Population, New Report Shows
If they have no income & are not allowed in many shelters, then were else can they live?

Vapes containing dangerous ‘space oil’ found in New Zealand. First time I heard of being found outside of Hong Kong. It is inhaled using vapes.
Should be in USA & Canada fairly soon.

Profits soar with the demand for temporary tiny 'homes'. These cramped huts offer only a small step up in quality of life & comes with an eyewatering price tag. Cities end up blowing their budgets on next to nothing.

Just like London Ontario!!

[Kevin Dahlgren 🥾 🥾 @kevinvdahlgren]

Exiting a homeless shelter on Skid Row in Los Angeles is like entering a Third World country. A Third World country, though somehow seems both cleaner and safer.

[Nancy Ban @NancyBan1]

This isn’t a one of.

It’s the way cities are run by Canada’s BIG CITY MAYORS.

Authority to develop and execute the city’s most consequential policies and determine who the ‘stakeholder’ beneficiaries of tax funding has been handed over to city bureaucrats

[Susan Stevenson for Mayor of London @StevensonLDN]

Is the #LdnOnt Whole of Community System Response still guiding the recommendations coming to Council?

This is the second time in just a few months that agencies (operationalizing plans recommended to Council for funding) are speaking out publicly with concerns.

It’s a bad look
