- 0:03So, in case you haven't heard, Canada is insane. Now here's the
- 0:07headline. Canadian court says drug users have constitutional right to get high in children's
- 0:14playgrounds. Yeah, and this is what happens when everybody falls asleep while activists
- 0:20are infesting every institution, including the courts. In British Columbia, drug addicts
- 0:25can satiate their habit anywhere they want because to prevent them from doing so is
- 0:29a violation of their constitutional rights to life, liberty and security of the person.
- 0:35And of course I am for personal freedom. I just think it's hard
- 0:39to say that when you've got somebody sticking a needle in their arm ten times
- 0:43a day that they're free. But anyway, BC Supreme Court Justice Christopher Hinkson
- 0:49ruled that it would cause irreparable harm, irreparable harm to prevent drug addicts from
- 0:56using public spaces, even children's playgrounds, to ingest their narcotics. So irreparable
- 1:03harm? Is it really irreparable harm if you can't shoot up under the monkey
- 1:07bars? I mean maybe the drugs cause irreparable harm. Oh sorry, I
- 1:12forgot stopping people from oding and leaving needles and crack pipes and playgrounds that's fascist,
- 1:21and furthermore, I don't think there's enough pride flags at them. Now,
- 1:25the judge was ruling in favor of a harm reduction group that was seeking
- 1:30to stop the BC government from limiting in any way the widespread use of drugs
- 1:36for personal use in public places. Now I'm kind of amazed that the BC
- 1:41government was trying to do that. I mean, after all, these are
- 1:42the same guys who decriminalized personal use of fentanyl, heroin, cocaine, methan
- 1:49MDMA, with this guy's full cooperation, of course. But fortunately the harm
- 1:56reduction group was there to stop the BC government from doing, as far as
- 2:00I can tell, the only sensible thing they've ever done, which was stop
- 2:04addicts from using drugs at playgrounds where children are. You know, it's funny
- 2:08how, like every left wing cause, its exact opposite of what they say
- 2:13they're doing, like harm reduction, which is actually harm increase by any sane
- 2:19measure. Because look, since BC started harm reduction measures twenty years ago,
- 2:24overdose deaths have increased by an order of magnitude. It makes me think they
- 2:29should rename their policy to something like I don't know, everybody dies, And
- 2:35of course they wouldn't want to keep drugs away from children's playgrounds. Some of
- 2:38those drugs might be cross sex hormones, and they wouldn't want to keep the
- 2:42kids away from those. So the judge was ruling in favor of a harm
- 2:46reduction group that was seeking to stop the BC government from limiting in any way
- 2:52the widespread use of drugs for personal use in public places. So the playground
- 2:57amendment was a reluctant effort by baes Woke new Democratic Party government to compromise with
- 3:04recovery groups and parents who did not want their children subjected to addicts shooting up
- 3:10or the health hazards of drug related paraphernalia littering parks and playgrounds. Now,
- 3:16Hanks and the judge did acknowledge that public drug use might create a potential danger
- 3:22inconvenience and social harms and even unpredictable behavior from addicts strung out on drugs.
- 3:29So that's it. You know, playgrounds, water parks, those are for
- 3:31drug addicts now, So I guess parents will just have to take their kids
- 3:35to play in like back alleys that underpasses. Now the homeless people won't be
- 3:39there, they'll be at the playgrounds. So This legal challenge was led by
- 3:45the Harm Reduction Nurses Association. They perfectly or welly entitled for them. I
- 3:51think their motto ought to be, Hey, sorry, your kid got hep
- 3:54C. We hope these free puberty blockers will make up for that. But
- 3:59that's all I'm on. I say about that. Please subscribe, like and
- 4:01share, share It really helps me out. I thank you for that.
