It is disheartening to think a man who lost a child to overdose would oppose safe injection sites.

Drug use happens, safe space or no.

Supervised means immediate, life-saving response for those who inadvertantly inject fentanyl, norfentanyl, carfentanyl, etc.

Supervised means those who inadvertantly inject substances laced with "tranq" - which has no reversal agent and which blocks reversal of opioids with Narcan - get immediate life-supporting interventions such as CPR.

For the model of safe injection sites and cutting-edge addiction intervention strategies, look into The Works in Toronto, CA.

As a daily light rail rider, I'm glad they're doing this - the issues on the light rail are systemic issues and not just 'light rail issues', hopefully this will help people in the long term.
