Re: Abbotsford and Surrey drug-user groups lose bid for judicial review
The B.C. decriminalization pilot was a disaster. Homelessness, street crime, and chaos all spiked. Now drug users have unions trying to appeal? A life built around drugs is a life wasted. Stop blaming others, take responsibility, and grow up. Quit hiding behind your habits. Own your life or keep wasting it.
