"Safer Supply" Leading To More Danger For The Youth
Manage episode 423043405 series 2342920
A new report using data provided by CAMH has revealed that a growing number of the youth in Ontario have been getting access to "safer supply", which in turn is leading to many other mental and physical problems. Host Alex Pierson knows this to be a very serious issue, and brings on the expert to help make sense of it all. Adam Zivo is a columnist for PostMedia and the Director of the Canadian Centre for Responsible Drug Policy and has been covering the issues of decriminalization and safer supply for years. He and Alex discuss how this evidence is somewhat expected but completely unacceptable, and why we need to abandon the safer supply program completely.
