Excellent wrap up by @AnnaliseAK on @confluenceyyc with the impressive reporters covering #yyc. Hope the podcast continues. https://t.co/AxN9PCX2Lq And @AnnaliseAK has been such an important journalist for #yyc. Her departure is the city's loss, but wish her the best!!

How on earth did a search for a missing Lethbridge city councillor lead @BillKaufmannjrn to write a story about "putting the sin back in Sin City?" He tells us the details on Ep. 17: https://t.co/j6zF8tUbrh

Bummed about @AnnaliseAK leaving @confluenceyyc, but all the best for her in the future! This month's episode (https://t.co/NozXqaMDca), a #yyccc reporting highlight reel, is a delight

[The Confluence @confluenceyyc]

Putting the final touches on tomorrow’s episode. That’s right, a brand new episode is coming your way tomorrow! #yyccc

[The Confluence @confluenceyyc]

If you liked the impression reel @meyer_lucas debuted a few months ago (see his pinned tweet video w 36,000 views) we have a feeling you're going to like this week's episode. #yyccc

A death toll of 1000/yr got us a bit of naloxone.
2000 prompted a small increase in harm reduction.
3000 improved treatment access a tiny bit.
So, what's the magic number for us to change drug laws? When will we bold and swift?

This is an incredibly powerful podcast. If you have a loved one with an #addiction (or any untreated health problem), please listen. Much more needs to be done to make our health care system work for people. #podcast #yyc #mentalhealth @abndpcaucus #abpoli @AHS_media https://t.co/frYGOD6anW
