Enema Bag Jones @jsb.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Wild thread - what the star cites as “perplexing” is quite simple. Deaths are down as people learn harm reduction, look out for each other and have better access to naloxone. Overdoses are up due to unregulated killer supply and the closure of safe consumption sites. 010
Reposted by Enema Bag JonesPetra Schulz @msthpetra.bsky.social · 03/08/2026The closure of consumption sites in ON contributes to these spikes. Using in a safe environment reduces risk (people can go low and slow) and many overdoses are managed without a trip to the ER. Closures in Red Deer AB led to spikes in ambulance calls. Politicians don’t seem to care. 0138
