Drugs are criminalised here and it still happens. Safe injecting room actually means less of this stuff on the streets round my house.

If BC will recriminalize "use in public spaces", presumably means injection rooms can remain. Best of both worlds?

True.

Having read the article I am interested in what the penalty would be. If you can’t do it with a civil penalty then criminal proceedings make sense I guess.
