Stimulant drugs including cocaine, MDMA and multiple types of amphetamines contributed to roughly half of all accidental overdose deaths in Canada from 2020 to 2021, according to a new report by Statistics Canada that also tracked a sharp rise in overdoses.
A good step, but there’s an even more safe way, believe it or not.
What’s that?

Not using any cocaine or MDMA.

Not using any cocaine or MDMA.
Does prohibition work?
Clearly not, as shown by the us alcohol prohibition or the war on drugs.
So given that total abstinence is practically impossible, do drug users deserve to die of overdose?
Nope, never said they did. But it is their responsibility.
That seems like a very individualistic view. Is it safe to assume you generally disagree with regulation in the name of public safety?
You know that’s never going to happen (on a societal level, I don’t use), right?
Don’t bother feeding that troll.
Just because you disagree with me, doesn’t mean I’m a troll.
When you start acting like the morality police then the label fits.
Are you going to go around next and beat the shit out of woman who don’t dress like you want?
Because that happens in other countries.
Point out where I said I want to police what they do. Come on. I’ll wait.
I just said it’s their own responsibility, which it is.
I know. But at the end of the day, it’s still an individual’s own responsibility.
It doesn’t really matter. There will always be people who want to use drugs. If people quit acting like prohibition or abstinence work then drugs would be less of a problem.
It does. You generally don’t overdose on something you don’t take.
Drugs are a problem even in places where they are legalized or decriminalized. Not this big of a problem, but still a problem.
No shit captain obvious. 🙄
I’m not going to waste my time talking in circles with you. See ya.
Glad we agree then 😁
Society’s responsibility
If you make everyone have a good life then there’s no need for drugs
So is making sure bad drivers are not on the road, but you still put on your seatbelt.
Some people will make stupid choices regardless how good a life they have.
Lmfao that’s so naive dude. I know people who led perfectly healthy and happy lives but used recreational and party drugs because it was fun. That’s it, just cuz it was fun. You can’t put the consequences of people’s thrill seeking on society.
What’s that?
Not using any cocaine or MDMA.
