No, we should not encourage drug use but drug abuse should be seen as a health issue not a criminal one. People should not have to suffer because of past mistakes.

No Prefer to see funding go towards facilitirs that offer help with dependency, offer mental health assistance and rehabilitation

Yes, this is a health issue, not a criminal issue. Also, we need follow through; we have to rehabilitate them while in these safe spaces. Support, educate, rehabilitate.

Drug safe havens should be used as a form of rehabilitation where, depending on the choice of the user, less and less of the drug are administered to the victim so they are eased into breaking the addiction. If they are implemented only as medically-managed drug dens then my answer is a resounding no.

If it is to be a way for them to slowly ween off the drugs then yes, but if its just for them to continue taking drugs then no

 @9YDXT2Hfrom Alberta  answered…1wk1W

Yes, but significant funding should be allocated to build a rehab system that ensures people stop using drugs. Not just safe havens. Like Singapore.

Yes, people who choose to use drugs so long as their life is still under control can be free to use them, doing this would completely destroy the market for drug cartels. i support this so long as those who are going through a spiral can be protected in the security of their life or whatever they have going for them while they are sent to mandatory rehabilitation until they are clean with significant counseling and help getting those people into a secure and good place in life.
