Let's Rethink the Decision on Consumption and Treatment Sites: An Open Letter to the Premier of Ontario
Dear Premier Ford,
During the Pandemic you and your colleagues followed the research and lead from the front – not from the politicized sidelines. We need you to follow the research now.
‘Word on the street’ two potentially fatal overdoses were reversed at the CTS in Kitchener in a span of only five hours this week alone. If the facility was closed, and the proposed HART Hub precluded supervised consumption with wrap around services – including wound care, mental health supports, and referral to recovery services – those two people would likely have died, alone.
Please reverse the decision to close all CTS in the Province of Ontario.

In that time, Cathy Baer and Barb Hill have volunteered on the WRCF’s Community Grants committee, John Fraser has volunteered on WRCF’s Financial Review committee and Dave Rutherford has volunteered on the Due Diligence committee. Trinity United Church has featured prominently in WRCF’s press releases.
