I am here to make sure that Canadians have better access to healthier and safer lives. I think we need to be very cognizant of the fact that people do inject heroin. Yes, there are safer ways to do it and there are less safe ways to do it. Do I wish people didn't inject heroin? Of course I wish that people didn't have to, but they do. And if they're going to do it, I would like to make sure that it's done safely, that it will not kill them, that they will not be infected by what they're being given, and ideally, that they might be able to eventually learn how to taper off that and to manage their addiction.
This is an area where it's not perhaps entirely intuitive to every Canadian to understand that this is the best way to go, but I am fundamentally supportive of this. I believe it's really important for us, as a country, to make sure we address the very serious opioid and addiction crisis across this country.
