BC United leader Kevin Falcon is calling decriminalization 91裸聊视频渁 risky experiment,91裸聊视频 that will put children at risk in communities around the province.
The opposition leader spoke to media Wednesday during a visit to Abbotsford, alongside Abbotsford South MLA Bruce Banman.
91裸聊视频淚 keep asking them, 91裸聊视频榝or God91裸聊视频檚 sake, just make the right decision and put some guardrails in place91裸聊视频 so that this risky experiment of theirs doesn91裸聊视频檛 become a total disaster,91裸聊视频 he said regarding the recent decriminalization of small amounts of drugs.
91裸聊视频淎t a minimum we have to protect our parks, playgrounds and beaches, especially as our kids are coming out of school in the next few weeks,91裸聊视频 he said. 91裸聊视频淲e cannot have them exposed to open drug use of heroin, crack cocaine, fentanyl and all the other dangerous drugs that could affect our children.91裸聊视频
BC United MLAs want to see those areas protected in the same way schools are, where open drug use is prohibited.
That suggestion, he said, is coming from municipalities who feel the decriminalization is 91裸聊视频渢one deaf91裸聊视频 to what is happening in communities across the province.
91裸聊视频淲e have more mayors and councils stepping up here and saying they want to put bylaws in to prevent drug use in parts of public places,91裸聊视频 he said, including Kamloops and Nanaimo.
But a provincewide ban would make more sense than offloading the work to municipalities, Falcon said.
91裸聊视频淭his is an easy decision,91裸聊视频 he said. 91裸聊视频淲hy are we having to argue with them for months about doing something that91裸聊视频檚 so obvious?91裸聊视频
It91裸聊视频檚 just one of the topics he91裸聊视频檚 talking to people about as he travels around this spring, as well crime, housing and 91裸聊视频渟ocial chaos and disorder.91裸聊视频
91裸聊视频淭he situation is disastrous,91裸聊视频 he said. 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 awful. It91裸聊视频檚 the worst I91裸聊视频檝e ever seen.91裸聊视频
British Columbia has the highest average rents in Canada, the highest housing prices in North America, and there is no change on the horizon, he added.
