Injections sites, “safe supply” of drugs, unregulated encampments, tolerance of broken laws, lack of prosecution, a revolving-door justice system and a liberal interpretation of drug laws by the courts have all lead to where we are today, a society that is lawless and biased toward those who break the law.

We’ve reached a very sad day in North American society when we are putting the priorities of traumatized adults over the innocence of children. Places designed for kids to play are being taken over by homeless encampments, with many being home to unruly behaviour, open drug use and, in some cases, violence.
