I don't know if it's helpful or not to categorize him as a drug abuser or an addict, but it's definitely important to recognize that overdosing on fentanyl is very very easy.

And that the prevalence of Fentanyl in the market where he was obtaining the recreational substance is sky high.
Most of the people dying in BC of fentanyl overdoses are not IV drug users but recreational drug users using tainted drugs.
It's one reason the lack of safe supply in bc/Canada is so morally outrageous and I hope the tragedy of an accidental overdose of such a beloved local figure light finally put a face in that powerful enough to FINALLY enact a groundswell of support for change.
