Since the congregation took naloxone training in March, there’s been seven outside St. Albans. But that number is quite modest. At the drop-in centre beneath the church, where some of Ottawa’s most afflicted seek daytime refuge once the overnight shelters close, they’re doing at least one [naloxone application] a day.

I think you don't understand it. These people made a choice to start using drugs and got addicted. It sucks but they made that choice.

Not sure why the rest of society needs to pay for their shitty decisions.

100% serious why should I care about drug addicts and criminals killing themselves? Let them.
