A British Columbia class-action lawsuit against the B.C. and federal governments over the safer supply drug program is waiting for certification. The suit alleges government-funded 8mg hydromorphone pills (dillies) and other so-called safe supply drugs provided to addicts led to more addictions and death when these safer supply drugs were sold by addicts to mainly teens. One of the lead plaintiffs is Gregory Sword, father of 14 year old Kamilah who died after ingesting "dillies" purchased from a dealer of safer drugs. Mr. Sword has been a guest on our program.

Also:

The Ford government in Ontario is ordering the closure of safe (drug) consumption sites within 200 meters of schools across the province. Kindly explain what the 'H' these sites were doing within 200 meters of schools in the first instance.
