In Vancouver, there is a detrimental problem with heroin addicts committing crimes to support their habits. The “free heroin for addicts” program can stop this. Heroine addiction makes it nearly impossible for users to matin relationships, hold a job, and perform everyday activities. Although this solution won’t help to ween these addicts off using heroin, the program will get addicts off the streets, lowering the overall crime rate. This will also keep the heroin users out of the hospitals, making more health professionals available to other treat patients. Giving addicts their heroine in a safe and controlled manner is beneficial for the the individual and the rest of the community.
