Drug overdose at age 20. The death comes after a protester overdosed. Addictions
`Treatmentare not covered in the health. If you OD or need to come off the alcohol you are covered for free.Vancouver is a warm climate city and has become a Mecca for the homeless from around the world, yes including USA.
Much of the Heroin and other illegal drugs is funneled in through the US`s War on Drugs Program. Military is not only Occupying Afghanistan to protect the oil pipeline.
Banks profit through the money launderying that takes place. Sadly many people are addicted to many forms of drugs and food. The population is dropping off like flies, so why should someone be alarmed. Oh ya it
s shocking because nobody talks about addiction, so the media wants to slam a group, what a great opportunity.Almost everyone or will experience a close relation of a person or themselves in this terrible disease in their lifetime. I think many here are more mature to read through that shit. It`s another reason for OWS.
