A local Harm Reduction Worker out of Gibsons believes there’s a good amount of fear within the community due to the contaminated drug supply that exists in B.C.
Brent Fitzsimmons says people know fentanyl among other substances have infiltrated the street drug supply and people are on edge.
Fitzsimmons says one of the discussions that keeps coming up is that there needs to be more help available for someone who is dealing with trauma and lives a lifestyle filled with drugs.
He adds, Â the lack available help that’s out there needs to be addressed, it is a subject that’s constantly brought up and it’s a big piece of the puzzle.
