We have decades of research that show that the war on drugs approach doesn't work. Safe-injection sites and safe supply are in their infancy in most places. Calling them a failure and advocating for a return to a war on drugs mentality is completely reactionary.

Violent crimes should absolutely be prosecuted to the fullest extent, but prosecuting simple possession crimes actually makes that harder due to the division of resources.
