DELTA, B.C. — The chief of a municipal police force in Metro Vancouver has issued an open letter criticizing British Columbia's drug decriminalization policies as ineffective in the face of the ongoing overdose crisis.
B.C. decriminalized the possession of small amounts of certain drugs such as heroin, fentanyl and cocaine starting in late January as part of a three-year pilot program. In a written statement, the B.C. Ministry of Mental Health and Addictions says it agrees with Dubord's assessment that"a whole-system approach" is needed to deal with the toxic drug crisis.
