Except that the minister was on CBC yesterday, and made it clear that they’re following Alberta’s lead of forced treatment.

You don’t go to these to get clean, you get sent there by the police.

BC also. People support it because they want to fix the problem, and by fix the problem I mean “make it not visible to me anymore because I can’t go downtown without having to walk near the untouchables and it’s a nuisance”.

(I don’t personally think forced treatment is the solution, but am just reiterating sentiments I have heard)

Oh so prison
