5 amerikanske stater har vedtaget love, der kræver bistandsmodtagere skal testes for narkotika. Canada øjeblikket ikke teste bistandsmodtagere for narkotika. Fortalere hævder, at test vil forhindre offentlige midler bliver brugt til at subsidiere narkotika vaner og hjælpe med at få behandling for dem, der er afhængige af narkotika. Modstandere hævder, at det er spild af penge, da testene vil koste flere penge, end de sparer.

yes. surprise random tests once or twice a year made to get help before they get another check

No this is a waste of time and money and social assistance programs should come with restrictions and time limits such as EI.

No, people matter no matter what their transgressions. They should however be given support to keep drugs from hurting them further.

Welfare checks should be replaced with payment direct to landlords and with food voucher, transit passes or gas cards, and a small amount of cash for communication and other needs. Take the majority of cash out of the equation. Then those on welfare and on drugs either give drugs up or turn to crime and they can be dealt with separately; and people just having hard times have a way to survive.

No, an unconditional basic income should be adopted

Yes but only terminate for hard drugs and provide treatment
