This isn’t even the tip of the iceberg.

The blind rhetoric and ideology of the #UCP is killing #Alberta.

The Alberta model for substance use and addiction is one mired in nepotism, cronyism, and anti-science perspectives.

They. Cannot. Be. Trusted. https://twitter.com/coreyranger/status/1340082979306000384
Almost one year ago a group of advocates came together to stage a die-in at the #ABLeg.

We demanded upscaling of #HarmReduction services including SCS/OPS, #SafeSupply, and a commitment to maintaining a continuum of care that relied on science, not rhetoric.

We didn’t get that.
Instead we got:
❌Closure of the busiest SCS in the world.
❌Defunding of life-saving and evidence based iOAT programs.
❌Closure of a treatment facility aimed at supporting homeless men.
❌Denial of Safe Supply.
❌An SCS steeped in misinformation and pseudoscience.
The result?

904 dead and counting in #Alberta in 2020.

904 preventable deaths.

The #UCP war on #HarmReduction is premeditated social murder.

Today’s announcement to defund the prevention team is just one more.
