Again, someone mentioned that there's a lack of data in some places. We don't have any numbers about the scale of methamphetamine use in our community. We know it's high.
I'm located right downtown, on Higgins Avenue. We have a park beside our centre. We've taken as many as 300 needles a week out of that park.
We're seeing, as I said earlier, direct impacts on some of the families we're working with. A mother will become a user, and then the children are apprehended. The healing period for the mother can be very extensive. I've been working with one family for over three years. Finally, they got the mother to a better place.
