Crack pipe vending machine removed from hospital pending review

A controversial crack pipe vending machine has been removed from the Campbell River hospital. However, it could be back, after the provincial Ministry of Mental Health and Addictions finishes a review. Last month Mayor Kermit Dahl said the machine has led to increased illicit drug use around the hospital, along with drug-related litter. The machine was installed last fall, along with machines in Nanaimo and Victoria, providing free access to naloxone, drug-testing strips and safe-sex kits, along with utensils to snort and smoke illicit drugs. They also display short videos about how to use the products they dispense. After Nanaimo’s BC Conservative candidate Gwen O’Mahoney posted a video of herself with the machine outlining her concerns, Premier David Eby ordered a review of the program. No timeline has been announced for when it will be finished. See her video here: The post Crack pipe vending machine removed from hospital pending review appeared first on My Campbell River Now.
