I have enormous empathy for opioid addicted Canadians, and I wholly support finding a means to help these people.  At the same time, I am extremely jealous of the time, effort and tax dollars being spent on opioid issues when Canada still refuses to provide a Vaccine damage compensation program, OR to investigate and support vaccine damaged individuals and families.  If "We must turn the tide on Canada's Opioid Crisis", we must also wake up to the reality of vaccine damage that happens to Canadian citizens and give them the support and tax dollars they need to cope with (often) life-long disabilities from vaccine injuries.
