Scenes from Saturday's memorial march organized by the Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users. Since 2016, over 15,000 people have died from overdose in Canada. We are in a public health crisis of catastrophic proportions that must be addressed through a #SafeSupply of drugs and decriminalization. Lives can't wait for incremental shifts in policy. Governments must be bold, compassionate, and decisive to end the loss of life.
