A CRACK IN THE PLAN
I am absolutely blown away with this. I cannot believe that our city
of Winnipeg has actually put together a program that supports drug
abuse. Granted this was not the initial purpose but still. And its
still in affect. Wow, what is this city coming to be. We should be
promoting safer streets where bodies won't be found on trails in
fields and getting homeless people off of them. Maybe instead of
giving out a kit that has a crack pipe in it, give out a kit that has
a blanket and bottles of water, and a sandwich. With all the crack
pipes being given away to people in hopes of something positive, I'm
sure more useful things can be bought or made or supported. Get them
working again, get them in a rehabilitation centre. This is a lazy
mans way of "fixing a problem."
