I'm from a rural area and methamphetamine abuse has certainly been present in the rural areas of southwestern Ontario for many years. I don't want to use the word “epidemic”, but it maybe 20 years ago, cocaine and marijuana and other things might have been the drugs of choice for users. Certainly now, I think everybody ends up, after awhile, with crystal meth. It is unlike any other in that it will, as a police officer once told me, steal your soul. Unlike others, you can't come back from it.
I know we're doing our best to figure out what to do for the country and I don't want to say it's impossible, but it's almost a dire situation, I would say.
I don't know if anybody else wants to add anything.
