Last night Sudbury lost another addict...not big news to everyone else , but devastating to those that knew them...The majority of addicts use to mask unresolved childhood trauma...instead of placing addicts in jails we should be placing them in treatment centres ...Addiction can be overcome with enough will power & help from those surrounding us...we need love & support not the stigma & the discrimination that abounds for all addicts. T.V.,SEX,POWER,MONEY are all addictive yet we don't hear much about those do we...Safe injection sites are needed across Canada... instead of hindering this process Harper should embrace this...Perhaps if it happened to 1 of his family members we might see some movement on this,but don't hold yer breath! As an HIV+ recovering addict myself, I see the harm involved with addiction...the loss & sorrow felt by so many across this nation needs to be addressed asap! Safe injection sites save lives...OD rates drop, more addicts access treatment. On just those 2 facts alone you would think it would wake others up to allow these in all cities.HARM REDUCTION saves lives,& it could save someone you know & love from an early death...We also need more narconon distribution to help save more lives....Harm Reduction efforts have been set back many yrs. Once world leaders, we are now followers thanks to backward policies put in place by the conservative government. The laws that once protected Canadians from polluters no longer exist , placing all of our lives in jeopardy. The actions by this government are nothing less then criminal acts & should be punished to the fullest extent of our laws. Mr Harper has stated we must be afraid of the terrorists thereby becoming that which he professes to be against...fear mongering is terrorism & he needs to be brought to justice at the polls, so get out & vote. Live , love & laugh folks!
