I’m happy they did it. But I’m also questioning how much difference it’ll make in a province taken over by anti-vax paranoia and a whole region of people who more than half believe things life safe-use sites and safer-supply and harm reduction are a scam of some kind, in the face of the tainted opiate crisis that has been raging for a couple decades already. Hundreds of doctors have already been screaming about that.
TL:DR I don’t believe the wider population gives a flying fuck what doctors have to say at this point. I wish it wasn’t true, but it seems pretty obvious by now.
And for every 99 doctors siding with reason, there’s that 1 doctor that sides with the anti vax crowd. Every profession has its quacks, and having just 1 dissenter among 100 is enough for the Cons (and unfortunately a big chunk of the media) to label something as “controversial”.
All sensible people are questioning BC Conservative policies.
