Almost a dozen Canadians died every day from opioid overdoses last year. Since 2016, more than 8,000 have lost their lives, primarily to fentanyl.

In the States more than 70,000 people died of a drug overdose in 2017, the highest number on record and 9.6 percent more than the previous year.

If you take all that away from the underground black market and you give it to the people for free, you can stop them from getting poisoned drugs.”
