Poilievre has been clear that he opposes decriminalization and safer supply options
As debate around the Liberals’ drug policy dominated parts of the spring House of Commons sitting, the Conservatives are offering little insight into what approach they would take when it comes to supervised consumption sites.
Poilievre has been clear about his opposition to other harm reduction strategies that seek to mitigate the opioid overdose crisis. Poilievre’s office declined to say whether he supports supervised consumption sites or would include them as part of his approach to tackling the toxic drug crisis. It required prospective supervised consumption sites to meet a suite of criteria in order to operate, such as tracking crime rates and consulting with local residents and police.
Goodridge said that, “as a mom,” she doesn’t think the centre’s location is mindful of “what is best for community and community well-being.”
