This is you signaling how much you care about this issue when you are trying to bury it in the news cycle @jasonluan88
You can hide data but not the dead bodies
We see you and so does @CBCCalgary @CTVLethbridge @globalnews @CAPUDofficial @CSSDP @AndreaWoo @momsstoptheharm 2/?

Our dear Sam I think will be in the next quarter’s data. A lovely person who I knew for years. And this @UCPCaucus government doesn’t care 2 cents about them or anyone else. I hate them so much.
Not 2 cents, not any sense.

📚cited by @CrismCan show #iOAT not only reduces illegal drug use, but keeps people in treatment + health care +⬇️criminal involvement + incarceration. It’s a more cost-effective treatment for individuals w/severe opioid use disorder than other options. 1/ tinyurl.com/y5n4qxfv

Remember the good old days when even Conservatives believed in cost effectiveness in Public Health?

Golly, we ❤️ evidence.
The federal Health Minister @PattyHajdu said today: “The evidence shows us that supervised-consumption sites and services save lives and can provide people who use drugs with access to health and social services and treatment,”

The evidence she is referring to is ethical and peer-reviewed. ❤️
At a time when Canadians are talking about safe supply, decriminalization and regulation #abpoli is in the dark ages thinking that residential addictions treatment

is the only treatment available. There are tons of types of addictions treatments. We need them all, because one type of treatment modality doesn't work for everyone.

When consistently treated poorly by almost every professional you come across, trusting new people is very hard. ARCHES staff have spent months & years proving to PWUD that building relationships with them have value, is safe.
Relationships will be lost. Imagine the impact.

In 11 day people who rely on the #Lethbridge 13 booth SCS will be left to manage with a 3 booth SCS.
The space is inadequate. No transition plan is aparent. Government of Alberta leadership do no care.
We care. We care a lot and these people matter. #yql

Let's do some math!
@ARCHESLeth SCS sees 800 people a day.
They have 13 booths for injecting, snorting or consuming drugs from the unregulated market.
The 2 inhalation spaces (6-8 people total) have been closed because of #Covid19AB so lets put that aside for the moment. 1/4

Ministry of Health & Addictions said “Based on the utilization data we’ve received from the current supervised consumption services operator, the capacity will be sufficient to serve the clients.” tinyurl.com/yxwsz89h
How could that be possible? AHS mobile has 3 booths. 2/4

Each of the booths would have to turn over every 13 minutes for 20 hours/day. 40 people in and out every hour including cleaning. That's with no person experiencing the MEDICAL EMERGENCY that is overdose.
How is this even happening? People are going to die. #FactsNotFearAB 3/4
