ALCOHOL BEATS METH AS THE DRUG OF CHOICE
Methamphetamine gets a lot of headlines these days, but an old
stalwart is still hanging in there at the Edson Alcohol and Drug Abuse
Commission (AADAC) office.
"Alcohol seems to be the number one drug of abuse," AADAC area
supervisor Edith Zuidhof-Knoop said.
Other popular drugs in Edson and area included crystal meth, marijuana
and crack cocaine, she added.
It all adds up to busy days for AADAC staff.
"There just never seems to be an end to our work," Zuidhof-Knoop said.
