Manitoba community begs for transparency on supervised consumption site
Residents fear the Manitoba supervised consumption site will bring safety concerns to the North Logan community. The Manitoba drug consumption site will open Tuesday at 366 Henry.
A Manitoba community is urgently seeking transparency regarding a planned supervised consumption site in the North Logan neighborhood. Residents have expressed concerns that the site, set to open on Tuesday at 366 Henry, could introduce safety issues such as drug use and potentially lead to an exodus of residents and business closures.
Norm Alegria, a longtime resident of the area, voiced these worries, questioning the potential impact on the community. The site is being operated by the Aboriginal Health Wellness Centre, but they declined to grant an interview before the site's opening on Monday. They have promised to provide additional details on Tuesday.
