Bylaws such as the 7-7 intentionally harm and displace our communities, & uphold violent, colonial institutions that value property over life, & housed above unhoused. These laws and their institutions separate community, incite violence and increase risk of preventable overdoses

Today we remember a community member, whose leadership & care for others was inspiring. This untimely death is another reminder of the untenable war on the people who use drugs. Overdose Advisories are important, but preventing deaths in our communities demands Decriminalization

Thank you @streamocon !! What a great event! To learn more about us, and our fight for Decriminalization and Safe Supply click SICORN.ca #bcpoli #safesupply #decrim @bcyadws @OutreachSolid @SubstanceUVic @BarclayWallace @donaldmacmac
Last yr we amplified an event about safe narcotic drug supply, with @sicornvic​. Today, with the borders closed and access to opioid drugs increasingly limited & dangerous, this conversation is still very relevant. Learn about SICORN's important work: sicorn.ca/
