## Resource

Winnipeg’s ten-day drug crackdown netted 25 arrests—mostly for outstanding warrants—not direct drug charges, and the results remain sealed, sparking backlash over lack of transparency and missed opportunities to partner with social services. While some areas report fewer visible drug use, people are just relocating to other spots, turning the city into a game of whack-a-mole. Without data, the public can’t judge what worked—or what didn’t—and without real collaboration, sweeps only shuffle the problem, not solve it. The police must release their findings to build effective, lasting solutions. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
