Title: Drug addiction is a real problem in Vancouver, Canada
Post by: JOE on April 28, 2017, 11:02:09 PM
I was on the subway today listening to 2 30 something women and they described how they were on methadone trying to kick the habit of heroin. And they described it in great detail as other passengers listened.



In some parts off our city, over half of the population seems to be hooked on one substance or another.



Is the drug problem bad where you live? Or is Vancouver, Canada an exception?



Be interesting to hear your stories. In any event, drug addiction and the drug problem is bad here and getting worse

Vancouver is definitely an exception. Drug addiction capital of the world.

Perhaps he meant the Skytrain?



I have heard people in Calgary, usually out of towners call the C Train a subway.

European carmakers are locking the doors for you after you start the engine. That has a rather sad tone to it.

I beg to differ. BC is the best managed province in Canada right now. That bar is really low mind you.

They do. There's an underground station right next to where he parks his limo when he picks up flight crews. :laugh3:

The more that OD, the less problem for society in general.



As bad as that sounds, there's not that much that can be done for hard-core junkies, contrary to the "hug everyone" crowd...

Society should still try though..



It doesn't necessarily have to be paid for with public money though.
