Re: 麻豆精选, April 30, 2019: 鈥溌槎咕♀�檚 top cop predicts crime could get worse before it gets better in the city鈥ithout more treatment for drug addicts, crime will increase.鈥澛槎咕� RCMP Supt. Brent Mundle.
Supt. Mundle wasn鈥檛 preaching to the choir, the good people of 麻豆精选.
He was addressing 麻豆精选 mayor and council, the same group that enabled more drug addicts on Jan. 17, 2019, by unanimously voting for a permanent Harm Reduction Wet facility to be built at 2025 Agassiz Rd. in a predominantly seniors鈥� neighbourhood.
This reckless action clearly enables more using and more trafficking, since all drug addiction treatment is voluntary. And more police calls.
It鈥檚 no wonder that Supt. Mundle found himself repeating this distressful phrase: 鈥淭he city will not be able to arrest its way out of the current situation involving crime and addiction.鈥�
