Minister of Mental Health and Addictions Ya’ara Saks responded by saying that “every request" to decriminalize drugs is "reviewed on a case-by-case basis,” and that Toronto Public Health has not submitted a proposal that “adequately addresses the dual objectives of public health and public safety.”
“I'm a minister. I'm a Toronto MP. I'm a Toronto mother,” Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland added. “The opioid crisis is a tragedy and there are no families in Canada that are untouched by it.”
“The B.C. pilot project was requested by B.C. — B.C. has serious concerns. We share those concerns, we are addressing it. There is no other pilot project anywhere in Canada, and the B.C. experience should and will be instructive,” Freeland added.

Why is Freeland talking about white supremacist? We talking about drug decriminalization here, you dialed wrong number lady... 🤦♂

Cigarette smokers are treated as lepers and cannot smoke or vape in public areas, but no problem smoking meth, etc.. Liberal logic.

Can’t stand hearing Freeland talk. She might be worse than Trudeau in her tone.
-
Freeland is literally one of the worst politicians in Canadian history.
-
Wacko policies from a wacko pm.
-
Freeland is the biggest wacko of them all.
-
Just freeland's voice alone is enough to piss you off. What a 🤡
-
Chrystia Freeland can't answer anything properly!!!
-
This racist tactic is so pathetically desperate. It’s getting really sad now
-
Not just BC's children, ALL of Canada's children need protecting from these corrupt policies.
-
Wacko ! Wacko !

A few weeks ago someone close to me was verrry ill, had to call an ambulance. They said you'll have to wait an hour ; we are sooo busy. An hour later they called back & said the ER is so full we cant take you there. So she was taken by ambulance to another city where it was very similar. Apparently the reason they are do busy is because of the drug addicts and overdoses. They are lying on the floor in the ER waiting to be seen. Its disgusting for others in the waiting room to watch. I knew Trudeau's pot policy would eventually lead to more drug addiction and it has snowballed the past eight years. Now the wacko wants to decriminalize hard drugs ?! PP was right...this loser needs to go asap ! He and Freeland are destroying this country !

Make it illegal. BC has gone to HELL

This woman cannot answer a question. Unbelievable
-
I would like Freeland to come to my neighbourhood in Vancouver and look at all the crack heads and addicts needles and drug use on the same streets our kids play and tell me how much she cares about the children.....
-

Yet ya can’t smoke and drink a beer in public…… disgusting what they have done!
