Minister, you can't have evidence if you don't have a safe injection site to give evidence from in that particular region. There is a safe injection site in Canada and there are 70 around the world that have clear evidence of the facts that they prevent death, they prevent disease, and they help people to go to rehabilitation and treatment. So, Minister, the evidence is there about how it works.
I want to talk about the public health effects of this, not only about the policing and the “safer communities” part of this. I think the things people need to do, Minister, are too enormous for anyone to ever be able to meet the criteria you have given to set up a safe injection site in this country.
