Hi all,
I write about #drugs #drugpolicy + #drugculture. I am esp. interested in examining how #classism and #geopolitics influence drug markets and vice versa. I recently self-published my 3rd book, #Drugism, and am working on my next one now.
Buy the book Drugism here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/394196426085

@Shireen I haven't read that book but will add it to my list for sure. <brief pause while I put it on hold at the library.... done!>
I get the feeling the federal government supports #SaferSupply as best it can, at this point, but it's slow going and since the provinces jealously guard the whole "health" space, it's an uphill battle in some provinces. And public flack too, as you say. Sigh. One day!
There's tons of coverage of a report from BC this week, but I'll just post this one headline & quote:
https://thetyee.ca/News/2022/11/08/Report-Let-Us-Down-Once-Again/
“We need to leverage this report to create a situation where we talk about this as adults in a serious way,” said Ward, “and to recognize this mass poisoning is a result of policy choices and that we can make different ones.”

Hello fediverse!
#introduction #NewHere I'm in #Toronto, have been in the nonprofits-using-interesting-tech space since the 90s, particularly interested in all aspects of #HumanRights and #HealthEquity, and am most recently working in the #DrugPolicy slash #HarmReduction slash #SaferSupply space.
I pet my two black cats, do #cycling advocacy, and make things (bread, jam, tomato sauce, quilts) which make me sound much more traditional than I am. Pagan/goth at heart. Connections welcome.
