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.
