Not just gossip, but totally biased reporting! I only link to this video so you can see how biased and incompetent CTV is. Bambi totally leads the discussion with her point of view, and then deliberately mismanages the time so that the Conservative MP does not get to respond. She even laughs about it. Sick. Gossip is normally harmless, this is not harmless, this is a concerted attempt to discredit the Conservative government and their tough on crime legislation.
Too bad for them the people leaving comments didn't agree with CTV's Liberal/NDP bias. Funny how when the comments don't agree with CTV's position, they quickly close down the comments.
B. Kelley, No sites in Ontario

We have a responsibility to provide whatever help we can for people who want to kick drug addictions but we do not have a responsibility to facilitate continued abuse. If we continue to provide these injection sites then we might as well start building nice new club houses for the street gangs, fully equipped chop shops for the car theft rings and maybe some modern, well-lit strip malls where the drug dealers can set up shop. Maybe we could even build a high rise hotel for hookers with our tax money. Someone needs to remind B.C. that the use of heroin is against the law and, when the government becomes complicit in the act of injecting it, then they are forming a virtual conspiracy to violate the criminal code. I know that bleeding hearts will wail about drug abuse being an illness. It's not! It's a self-imposed addiction and it's a criminal act. They'll also claim that supervised sites help protect the addicts from disease or, in other words, protect them from the consequences of their own stupid decisions. If they want to make the equally stupid decision to remain an addict then they should be made to take responsibility for themselves. Rehabilitate - By all means! Facilitate - No way!
We went to Vancouver this summer, thought the boys would like to see ChinaTown, boy did we get out of there fast, the addicts, boarded up apartment houses, people vomiting in the street at noon, it was a real eye opener. Then we went to Kelowna, and took the boys to City Park, right downtown, what a mistake, the druggies had taken over the park so that families could not enjoy it anymore. But the lefties think this is okay and should actually be encouraged with Insite because it might save one junkie from a disease? How about saving our children from these parasites on society?
On Monday, I picked up my son after jazz band and drove a friend of his home. On the way they were talking about how a kid they knew took 6 Ecstasy tablets and was in a coma for awhile and how he had been expelled but was hanging around the school anyways. I asked them if there were drugs in school, and they both said yes. They called the kids doing drugs stupid, and I hope they are not influenced into trying any drug because of peer pressure. One kid they had known since grade one, who was an honour student, found drugs after his parents divorced and has now dropped out of school. This is a school that has a full time police officer and brings in drug sniffing dogs, and this is in a really good area of the city. It really scares me. So, when I see stupid comments like this one, blaming the drug users, I can only shake my head. The dealers are in our schools and they are targeting our children.

"We believe we have to get to the source of the problem, which is with the drug dealers and the drug peddlers, and that's why we've introduced tough new legislation to combat drug dealers and drug peddlers,"Wrong Mr. Saxton. The source of the problem is the drug users. It doesn't matter how much you crack down on drug dealers, as long as people are buying it someone will sell it. It's all about supply and demand, the foundation of the capitalist society we live in. The only way to stop drugs is to stop the demand for drugs.
In a lefty world, all guns would be banned and all drugs would be legal, except cigarettes, those would be banned. Sex education would start at age 10 (see Planned parenthood...what an oxymoron their name is) and no pop would be allowed in schools because that is unhealthy.
Don't give me this crap about helping druggies by giving them clean needles, you are enabling them and not helping them. Why do diabetics have to pay for their own clean needles, that they need to stay alive? Why don't you lefties get right on that problem? Nope, someone needing a drug to save their lives just doesn't count with you guys. BC Bud is a BILLION dollar enterprise, and that's okay with lefties, they want it legalized. I don't, for my kids future. Lefties need to put down their drugs and get real.
Go after the dealers, HARD! One dealer in my kids school is one dealer too many! Ask any parent of teenagers, and they will feel the same way as I do. Or do you lefty parents sit around with your kids, smoking marijuana, telling them how cool sex is at any age? (The kid that was a honour student...his parents did just that) Are you encouraging your daughters to go out there and really experience life to the fullest by selling their bodies to get heroin so they can get through the next day?
Right, I thought not. If Columbia can fight drug dealers, and win, so can we.

I am a Libertarian who supports the decriminalization of marijuana, and even I think Insite is insane! I worked the graveyard shift at GM Place for two years. People can consume weed and alcohol and still be functional contributing members of society. But when people get hooked on heroin, crack, or meth; that's all she wrote!
It makes no senes to me how helping people shoot up is cited as a form of treatment. I spent a lot of time around these people after they walked out of the site. Their minds are completely gone. Is that helping? Or are we just to assume that all these people are just lost causes and we should give up hope of recovery?
By the way, Vancouver has a lot of these people because the migrate here from across Canada for the mild winters and generous welfare benefits.
The lefties like to forget that Insite is in violation of UN treaties on drug control of which Canada is a signatory.
Those pesky UN treaties. They come in handy when you are smearing your own country's soldiers with allegations of war crimes, but not so much when you are supporting illegal government sanctioned drug use.
"If Columbia can fight drug dealers, and win, so can we."
When did this happen?
The drug/alcohol addicted 19 year year old son of a cousin, was given a spot in a Claresholm rehab centre, within a week of the request. This same kid comes from an addiction background and his Mother in particular has had carte blanche with Alberta's addiction and medical services, for years. With her, it's been a revolving door, blatant abuse and sense of entitlement. She is also one of those that constantly complains about lack of government services.
Meanwhile my hubby has waited over 6 months to be seen by a Spinal Surgeon and an acquaintance is waiting 5 months for life saving cancer treatment.There a many more of these out there!
Something is very wrong when this prioritizing services to those with addictions to illegal drugs is allowed to occur, very wrong.
Dear Commrades,
I watched the interview and the temp host, she was not as rude as the regular mouthpiece.
She asked a loaded question, but the Appeals court was not 3-0, in fact the Government is correct to clear up the jurisdiction on this matter.
The Liberals and NDP have a pattern of supporting the drug culture in Canada. For the Liberals it is about Big Pharma and their ability to donate to their party. Remember Apotex children to Volpe? Remember the sole source provider of H1N1 serum in Quebec?
The NDP had an alliance with the Marjuana Emmerson in the last election before the bong blew up with two left.
The Liberals is stealing ideas from the left and right because they have none recruited Ross the poster boy for "clean living".
In the next election voters will have a choice. PM Harper or Cheech & Chong. You decide!
Off-topic, but Dalton has prorogued the Ontario legislature. I guess he's one Liberal who respects our PM and follows his lead. Hey, if the LP does it, it must be good. Dalton agrees with our PM. I guess he does have an ounce of brains.
I concur. The site does nothing other than to perpetuate the addicts and make the area unlivable.
Yes Kelowna has a problem as well. Interestingly enough Kamloops doesn't. We also have a large waterfront downtown park. It is bustling with activity all year long and in the summer there are free outdoor concerts every night.
Our downtown is busy and active. We do have street people but we employ police on bicycles to patrol and it works really well.
For our size we have a very safe city. That hasn't stopped the bleeding hearts from wanting to set up a safe injection site here. Cheers.
"I guess he does have an ounce of brains."
More likely they are sharing...

Ha ha ha! Good to see you are not as humourless as I thought. I look forward to your next conclusion that Harper being an air breather, everyone who also breathes air must therefore support him!
Funny how both McGuinty and Harper are helping the Conservatives to have more of a voice, by the 5 new Senators in Ottawa, and the return of two MLAs, Messrs Murdoch and Hillier to the Ontario Legislature after they were thrown out for misbehaving. They could only return after a prorogue or election.
