@guyfelicella @Last_Door I am at a loss for words, Guy. Your exclusion from this event seems so counterintuitive. Nurturing connections is fundamental to recovery capital, and I know how hard you work to build understanding and bring people together.

@Lord_Ballsley @guyfelicella @MrAndyNgo @kevinvdahlgren There’s a detox right upstairs!

Breaking: Major recovery announcement the Road To Recovery (R2R) at St Paul's hospital. Since the start in September over 90 people have accessed the R2R treatment and support. Helping build a better future for those struggling with addiction. #Recoveryispossible

Frontline service providers save lives everyday. I appreciate hearing directly from them about what we can do to improve care & address toxic drug crises, including today's meeting @VCHhealthcare's Overdose Outreach Team w/Fed Min @Carolyn_Bennett

NEW: A Vancouver program is selling regulated fentanyl at street prices in an effort to separate drug users from the toxic illicit supply, in a model that straddles the line between prescribed safe supply and regulated drug sales: https://t.co/4moMDa4FD3

@AndreaWoo Not (never) included: numbers lost to overdose

Happy Sunday, Vancouver! Today’s drop-in clinic for dose one of COVID-19 vaccine is on now at @myVCC. Open until 6pm tonight!

Currently no line, but lots of shade.

@guyfelicella @BCCSU @cheyenne_h_john @momsstoptheharm @VCHhealthcare @GlobalBC I am so honoured to work alongside you and bear witness to your journey!

[Miranda Compton @mirandakcompton]

So great to see the team’s hard work highlighted https://t.co/g7ka4OcmKk

[Miranda Compton @mirandakcompton]

@DocVan_Nostrand @guyfelicella Yes- it was for sure an all-community effort over many months along our shared journey of mitigation, isolation and now (yay) immunization!

[Miranda Compton @mirandakcompton]

@jajawoot @bloomgrp @JapaneseHall @FirstUnitedDTES A (yes, chaotic) journey I hope to never have to repeat! but am eternally grateful to have travelled it alongside all those named here, and many more. A necessary whole community effort, and I look forward to continuing the collaborations to re-open, battle #overdose and more...

[Miranda Compton @mirandakcompton]

@jjhorgan @richardzussman Fantastic choice!
