Deep gratitude to @jagmeetsingh.ca for your leadership. Thank you for being a leader who listens and values the voices of lived experience. As a mother who lost her son to our country's failed drug war I thank you for your commitment to reform and your support of our fight. Love and light 💖 #MSTH

Watching Williams, the sand & gravel guy, who has magically been morphed into an addictions expert by Dani & Marshall ( the other Smith) is astounding at best and crazy making altogether. #ableg #Abpoli #Cdnpoli #Addictions #MSTH

Disgusting! Andrew in a Supervised Consumption Site consuming a drug while he makes fun of people who use other drugs! We have lost over 50,000 Canadians to toxic drugs, my son included. The Conservatives owe our families an apology! Using our pain for political profit. Shame! #cdnpoli #MSTH #4Ryan

One of the many ways #PWUD keep each other safe, #Naloxone kits hanging throughout an encampment.

It's a step forward, even if temporary. Immense gratitude to all or our allies and #msth members who continue to fight. #YesToSCS

Advocates and allies in #Toronto area, your support and presence is needed Monday and Tuesday at the courthouse as the hearing to save Ontario's SCSs takes place. Lives are on the line so show up if you can.

Every drug death is a policy failure, and is a policy choice! Pur loved ones matter! End the war on drugs.

Harm reduction is healthcare! Every drug death is a policy choice and a policy failure!

Involuntary treatment doesn't work and it's deadly, meanwhile we have people dying while on wait list for voluntary treatment. Make it make sense!

This both angers and saddens me. The lives of our family and friends are not disposable. Stop treating them as they are are! Shame on Doug Ford and his deadly politics!

Ford's failure will cost lives! Every drug death is a policy failure!

City of #Barrie has threatened me. My response in shortform.
"Trespassing us from City Hall for exercising our Charter protected rights would be a violation of the highest law of our country and we would confidently challenge any such violation in court."

Thank you for speaking out!
This is the #AB #MSTH position on forced treatment!
#CareIsNotForced

This is a violation of human rights and we all should be concerned. Forced treatment doesn't work, causes trauma, and costs lives. Meanwhile people seeking treatment die while on waiting lists. #cdnpoli #DrugSky #4Ryan #MSTH

March 6th is Black Balloon Day!
This is an international day of remembrance and awareness.
We invite you to join us as we remember those we have lost

This is one of the many reasons to vote Ford out today. The closure of 10 CTS sites in Ontario is going to result in needless preventable deaths which will impact families and communities in immeasurable ways. I know, and I ask #4Ryan let's #VoteFordOut! #onpoli #saveONsites #MSTH
