The Canadian province of British Columbia, under NDP Premier Eby, is reversing its policy on the decriminalization of hard drugs, which had previously allowed adults to carry up to 2.5 grams for personal use. This decision comes amid criticisms of the policy's effectiveness, as the Liberals' $1 billion safer illicit drug supply strategy, supported by Trudeau, reportedly failed to reduce overdoses. Public safety concerns and the involvement of law enforcement officials in drug smuggling rings have further complicated the issue. The reversal has sparked a debate on the effectiveness of drug decriminalization, with some officials and citizens calling for a reevaluation of such policies, while Toronto and Ontario continue to push for decriminalization.
Now that NDP Premier Eby admits he and Trudeau were wrong to decriminalize public use of hard drugs, will the media quit quoting the “experts” who told us it was a great idea? More importantly, will these “experts” be held accountable for the lives ruined and lost by following…

BC is following Oregon’s lead in moving away from decriminalizing hard drugs. So why are the chief medical officers for Toronto and Ontario pushing for us to go down this horrific path? It makes no sense. Read & RT #cdnpoli https://t.co/Zr8AMIeAWq

How long have I been saying this? Dogs are the victims of the opioid crisis, too. All drug tourist and fentanyl addict apologists saying “They just need houses.” What about this? @TheCoalitionSF https://t.co/RiE1JjNkFY
Pro drug harm reduction activists say this is all a waste of time. Yet, they caught a sheriff's deputy in this drug smuggling ring. You'd think they'd be happy about that. There's too much money. It's too easy to corrupt. Shut this all down. @DEAHQ https://t.co/nRWq2DReqD

As news swirls that the Liberals failed $1 billion safer illicit drug supply strategy has not yielded any tangible results as overdoses rage on, concerned citizens are now calling on the federal government to abolish the strategy. REPORT by @TamaraUgo: https://t.co/T4ssOmhxAO
Decriminalization of drugs is failing in Canada. So they're rolling it back. I'm sure @guyfelicella is upset. @ZivoAdam “police do need the tools to address extraordinary circumstances where people are compromising public safety through their drug use.” https://t.co/yAc3cQZpvL

Unfortunately, I was right in this video. Fortunately, Eby today admitted he and Trudeau were wrong to decriminalize hard drugs. Now let’s detox & treat loved ones with addiction to bring them home drug free. https://t.co/4WarLBs45m
