Summary
Safe consumption sites in Calgary and Lethbridge remain closed as a judge denies an injunction, citing established court precedents and awaiting the Alberta Court of Appeal’s decision on a similar Red Deer case. Advocates argue these sites are vital for harm reduction, offering safer drug use environments and critical support services, while the judge acknowledges user dependency but ultimately defers to existing legal rulings. The outcome of the pending appeal could shape the future of these sites across Alberta. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
