Social protesting for support
Please fave this photo so it can make explore and reach many more people for support of this plight.
This protest is from a group that runs a program to help addicts have a clean and safe environment for injection. It is the only one of the four pillars approach that has been implemented. It saves lives by giving the addict a clean place to shoot up and less risk of overdose as they have nurses that monitor the users. They have prevented many deaths and therefore a savings on the medical system.
The Conservative government had the RCMP raid their site in the morning for no apparent reason. This gov't says they want to help addicts and yet they want to cut funding of this unique site.
I personally don't condone injectible drugs, but it is not my place to judges those who do for they are not all in that position by choice. I think prevention and detention are not a cure totally. There has to be a sustainable effort to treat and support people who live in the poorest district of this country. The lower standard of living makes drugs more of an escape with no positive outcome. This is only one program that a right wing government feels is not an issue during an election. There are many more issues affecting the poor that have only been discussed by the parties vying to prove they are for the people and not just big business.
Let's hope this election creates a new direction for the people who fly under the radar of politcal hiearchy and gets acknowledgement for support and funding.
