A number of areas in the city have become the virtual “non -transportation” areas. Hospitals throughout Canada have become “the battlefield” (Globe and Mail, March 22).

Meanwhile, the Social Fire Department stated that it had responded to more than 350 overdose since March 1, and that it had gathered and disposed of more than 11,000 “sharp” “”. From March 20, to the safe injection site on Street 20, it was closed for a while, due to the exhaustion of employees from the treatment of users.

These facts do not spell “safe” for the general public. So, it is time for exhausting firefighters, the police and our paramedics to clearly announce that they may or may not be able to reach drug users in the crisis – that fires, crime and medical emergency always get priority.

Meanwhile, friends and families of users will achieve this well to intervene seriously and urge them to stop using them, get a life, and get a job. Success in that front will really achieve a safer city, because it is the drug epidemic that lies behind the general absence of “safety” for all.

The federal elections are upon us, unfortunately, now begins spreading slogans, attacks full of anger, hatred and division. The policy of cruelty and transition to our southern neighbor “Trump”, which now considers us an enemy, has afflicted our political systems.

Where are the campaigns of days start with the virtues of strong morals and integrity that focus on actual policies and platforms? Social media has not done any preferences in this consideration because it allows the spread of wrong information and conspiracy theories, and in many cases, frank lying.

We need to focus and remind the Canadian values ​​that our ancestors have installed from all race, color and belief; Values ​​such as care and anxiety for our fellow organisms, non -selfish contributions to hard work, protecting our country, social justice and equality with comprehensive health care and the desire to live in a safe and healthy environment.

We need to identify and liquidate foreign interference by Russia, China and India. We must ignore the angel and Donald Trump in our policy with the latest manipulation and reverse psychology lies in the deviation of the trade war he started.

In these elections, we must understand that opinions are not facts and that the facts must be examined through respectable sources. Finally, it should be reminded that the poor leader is the person who divides, while the real leader does not create separation but he brings people together.
