Canadian province will decriminalize cocaine and MDMA for THREE YEARS to free up police amid an overdose crisis: Move comes just one day after Trudeau's ban on handgun sales was proposed
2022-06-01
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • British Colombia is set to decriminalize possession of up to 2.5 grams opioids, cocaine, methamphetamine and MDMA starting January 31, 2023

  • While the newest policy does not legalize the substances, for three years drug users 18 and over caught with the substances will not be arrested and charged

  • The exemption would not apply to airports, schools and members of the Canadian military

  • The policy comes after British Columbia has become the epicenter of Canada's opioid crisis

  • Since 2016 there have been over 9,400 deaths due to toxic illicit drugs in British Columbia and a record 2,224 last year
