From my lived experience, I'm hearing all these answers to questions and all this long-windedness, and I can appreciate it, but I want to know how many people in here, in this committee, have lived what I have lived through. You can talk about references. I point to the Alberta model only because we're desperate as parents to find something that will save his life. There, they are monitored. We need something monitored.
We can't be dispensing drugs that are making their way to the streets. It's a currency for drug addicts and for people like my son. This hydromorphone is a currency unless it's strictly regulated, perhaps in a pharmacy setting or perhaps in a setting like the doctor here talked about, but it cannot be given to them 28 pills at a time, every day, for them to go and trade them for street drugs. You're defeating the purpose of safe supply.
