A huge problem in Vancouver is with heroin addicts committing crimes to support their habits. The “free heroin for addicts” program does everything they can to stop the addicts. The problem in Vancouver is the large crime rate due to the addicts. Addicts have a hard time getting through their day to day lives. Daily activities such as jobs, interactions, and relationships are hard to maintain because of the fact that they are using heroin. Heroin users will do whatever they have to do to get their hands on the drug. Crimes committed are those of breaking and entering as well as stealing. Heroin users have no limits to where they will go to retrieve this drug so that they can feed their addiction. The problem with this program is that it won’t help to ween these addicts off using heroin. The program only tries to save the city from rising crime rates that they’re up to. Providing this drug to addicts will help them get off the streets, which in turn will prevent them from committing minor street crimes. Also it will keep the heroin users out of the hospital. Hospitals should not have to deal with people that want to use bad drugs or unsanitary needles and find themselves being unable to afford hospital bills and hard to cope without the drug. This program gives people free heroin in the cleanest way possible. As a result it will fix the city but not the addiction that these people face.
