So if you cant afford your hit, you will find a way. That way around these parts is likely meth. You can make meth pretty easy and cheap, things addicts and most people like. You won’t escape meth if you are an addict. Think you can hop a bus somewhere and change that up? Well as a hobo you would likely go west cuz good weather and all. Well whats out in Vancouver? More meth, same addiction, same problems same results. Go east to less social supports and worse weather and more Meth? Likely worse results than if you stayed in Calgary or went west.
Bring in clean drugs, break that cycle. It does help regardless of your thoughts on it.

The bigger issue is fentanyl. That is very easy to get in large quantities. You don't need an international criminal network. You can just order it over the internet with Bitcoin.
Meth is awful, but fentanyl is killing people at a much higher rate. Far more potent than heroin and getting your dose off by a grain of sand worth will kill you.
Everything the media is saying about fentanyl is totally true. In fact, I'd argue the media is underreporting the severity of the problem.
