The Alberta Progressive Conservative government of Danielle Smith is putting a lot of effort into tackling addictions and they’re doing it by focusing on treatment.

But they’re not the only ones. The NDP government in British Columbia under new Premier David Eby is also going hard on treatment. They’ve even been toying with the idea of involuntary treatment for people who face multiple overdoses.

Anthony Furey discusses the push to tackle opioid addictions across Canada in his latest video.
