It's Called Blackmail

PM Blackface knows all about that:

 

Now, about that Justin:

The provinces and territories administer and deliver most of Canada's health care services, with all provincial and territorial health insurance plans expected to meet national principles set out under the Canada Health Act. Each provincial and territorial health insurance plan covers medically necessary hospital and doctors' services that are provided on a pre-paid basis, without direct charges at the point of service. The provincial and territorial governments fund these services with assistance from federal cash and tax transfers.


So there's that.


If the lying coward can throw away money on wars we simply cannot fight nor afford, bar tabs, food delivery services and jetting around the country, then perhaps he can stop bilking the taxpayers and frightening them with their money.


Also - why don't YOU house them, Carolyn?:

Last week, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre published an op-ed backtracking on some of the claims he made in his video on drug policy, where he described in detail a fictional tale of progressive government policies leading people to use taxpayer-sponsored drugs and commit violent drug-fuelled crimes (Fixing Addiction Policy, Pierre Poilievre, Dec. 9).

 

These scare tactics, Carolyn?:

First, the activist narrative on harm reduction—that it saves lives without collateral costs—cannot be maintained. Safe injection sites have an extremely poor record of moving drug users into treatment and recovery, with some referral rates as low as 1%.

As a result, neighborhoods that host safe injection sites, like the Downtown Eastside in Vancouver, often devolve into open-air drug markets, with hundreds of homeless addicts sleeping in the streets. This, of course, only compounds the problem and externalizes the social costs onto neighbors and small businesses.

Second, even in progressive Canada, safe injection sites are not as popular as activists had hoped. To the contrary, safe injection sites are driving a backlash that has empowered conservative political parties in Canadian cities, suburbs, and rural areas. ...


House them, Carolyn.

You can't house them when they're dead.
