this is #SafeSupply through a regulatory framework imposed by provincial legislation

you could do this with synthetic drugs in B.C. - the legislation would be way different and very complex, containing amendments to a bunch of provincial law

worth it.

+ arresting the people who are actually trying to do something about those dangerous toxic drugs.

I take Rx Tramadol (Ultram) 400mg daily. Highest dose of that synthetic opioid & a low 1200mg Gabapentin. Rx for historical spinal & pelvic fractures that are disintegrating. Many ppl don't have safe supply. No matter the reason #SafeSupply saves lives.

It is counterproductive to criminalise people for using drugs. It's that simple. #SafeSupply
You can't go ostracising and marginalising people for dulling neurological and traumatic pain. #HarmReduction
Whether you're recovery or harm reduction or a bit in-between, the above should not be difficult.

Briefly listening to data from Vancouver DTES over last few weeks highlighted the gravity of challenges faced in this area. How this changes with proposed "gentrification" of DTES may just kick the can down the road imo? However, digital harm reduction becomes crucial in this context. #SafeSupply

Emergency Department & Hospital Utilization (January - September 2025) With 5,071 emergency department visits and 1,542 hospitalizations in 2025, Edmonton leads all Alberta municipalities. This places sustained pressure on acute care capacity, staffing, and downstream health services. Edmonton's ED visit count alone is higher than Calgary's, despite a smaller population. This asymmetry demands province-level recognition and targeted resource allocation to Edmonton's primary and acute care networks, community mental health and substance use strategies, housing, disability supports, and harm reduction services.

Hospitals? We know they're also in systemic crisis. We could relieve some of that pressure with evidence-based supports for people who use unregulated substances, thus potentially mitigating many of these visits and hospitalizations. #yeg #HarmReduction #SafeSupply #HousingIsAHumanRight

Preventable drug poisoning deaths in Edmonton Edmonton recorded 758 drug poisoning deaths in 2025 — the second-highest annual total on record. The city accounts for 55% of all Alberta deaths, with a rate 2.3× higher than the provincial average. March 2025 was the deadliest single month, with 92 deaths. The crisis continues in public spaces, though approximately half of all deaths still occur at home. Deaths in 2025 Second-highest on record Non-pharma opioids Fentanyl & carfentanil March 2025 Highest single-month total Above provincial death rate Edmonton vs Alberta average Annual Death Toll: 2016–2025 The chart below traces Edmonton's drug poisoning deaths over a decade. The 2025 figure represents a sustained elevation above pre-pandemic levels, driven primarily by the toxic unregulated drug supply. Contrary to mortality data from other jurisdictions, Edmonton is not seeing clear indication of a decline in drug poisoning deaths. Since 2016 A Unacceptable Loss Since 2016, Edmonton has had 4,992 deaths due to acute unintentional drug poisoning. This profound toll is equivalent to losing an entire neighborhood's population in less than a decade

This profound crisis, driven by potent unregulated substances that are becoming increasingly more volatile and unpredictable, is preventable. What we lack is political will, and ALL levels of government have a role to play. #yeg #HarmReduction #SafeSupply

Health Canada’s rebuff of compassion clubs predates DULF: Here’s why it matters. Compassion clubs have resurfaced in recent years as a response to the toxic unregulated drug crisis in British Columbia (BC), and more specifically the need for community-based safer supply programs a...

Excellent piece on Health Canada's harmful and irrational opposition to the entire concept of compassion clubs - whether for unadulterated unregulated substances such as those DULF supplied it members or a legal substance like cannabis.

“Just say no.” (Yes I’m being sardonic about the gaslighting & patronizing campaign Nancy Reagan led during Epstein’s Iran-Contra.) #SafeSupply

#SafeSupply is the future, so accordingly beware too much special k causes bladder bleeding.

Precisely. The drug war is kayfabe. #safesupply

"“The numbers are down compared to last year, but these aren’t numbers, these are people, and it’s a new person dying every time,” she said.

Deaths will continue to rise until the government addresses the root problem, which is the unregulated drug supply, Ward told The Tyee."

#SafeSupply

In this case they’re acting like it’s more consensual, playing world police per usual, when instead we could have #SafeSupply and negate phony drug wars used for colonization & ensuing genocide, and we could have universal healthcare.

Institutional stagnancy too of course.
Perhaps that’s all this is…
Stagnancy cum conflagration.
A cycle we’d like to break.

Sex Ed is void in these lands.
What’s more: a negative void.
A void that attacks us.
A skyward phalis of a fleeing trajectory that mirrors the income distribution curve.
Sex misinformation is mass produced & very intentionally conspired.
Pumped like oil.
Trafficked with our labor.

I say #SafeSupply, why are you asking me about prohibition, or was that just a rhetorical question?

Toxic soup: Today’s illicit drug supply is ever-changing — and deadly Ten years after a declaration of a state of emergency around the toxic drug crisis, it continues to kill more people every month than died in an entire year when heroin dominated the market.

They’re really trying to making things about Mexican cartels lately, ignoring the obvious human trafficking cartels in office. Iran, Mexico, Cuba, we don’t need these fake wars. #SafeSupply

#SafeSupply

ICE seems even worse, but more likely both cartels are the network state and this kayfabe is more false pretense, but who knows.
#SafeSupply would negate the problem.
