MODERATORS
The uninformed conservative public believes that curing addiction is simply a matter of forcing people not to take drugs until they are no longer addicted. They like the punitive aspect of it, because they see becoming addicted in the first place as a moral failing.
Conservatives the world over seem to share their worst ideas among themselves.
Fascism can happen anywhere.
Pierre Poilievre is borrowing John Rustad's forced treatment euphemism of locking people up without supports and away from their community.
Pretty much eh?
Okay. When are we going to get voluntary treatment for addiction and psychiatric issues?! I dunno if PP has tried being sick lately but there's no fucking help.
He's got money. He wouldn't have a problem getting help.
Money from being a politician. Dude's become a multi-millionaire from politics, not work.
Smells of them Indigenous peoples facilities Canadian state and pedo churches maintained schools....
What can go wrong ?
What about "freedom"?
