in Edmonton and Calgary, addicts interviewed at transit facilities are saying similar things. They are worried about dying (overdosing) from their supply. availability of safe consumption sites have been scaled back. They use the LRT stations incase they overdose because of the monitored CCTV, the panic call buttons and that the peace officers often carry narcan.

Addicts congregate there in the summers too. But sure, they could be making up these reasons.
