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.

Decriminalization Saves Lives #bcpoli
Decriminalization + Safe Supply + Housing First = Harm Reduction #bcpoli
Provincial Health Officer Bonnie Henry: "I continue to push for decriminalization of people who have possession of small amounts of drugs for their own use." (tgam.ca/2XioaIk)
For the first time since 2018, BC recorded over 100 overdose deaths in back-to-back months (March and April). With overdose death rates the highest in Canada, 3 people die each day in BC. 1/ @DarcyJudy @adriandix @mikefarnworthbc @VanIslandHealth #bcpoli #overdosedeaths @bcyadws

ALT In memory of the 100s of lives lost to overdose deaths, the South Island Community Overdose Response Network gathered at the British Columbia, Canada Legislature, to layout 100s of Narcan Kits. Instead of holding space for our grief and rage, we were met with Leg. Cops who denied us our right to publicly share and protest countless lives lost. Protective Services challenged the use of any image outlining the immense loss of life to overdose death, stating we are required to obtain a permit for use of Government property, including for use in memory of lives lost. No less than 4 Legislature Protective Services personnel walked 6 people, sharing grief and loss together, off government property.
We envision a world where in free and equitable participation we can all live in dignified housing, and be free of poverty.
