During Tuesday's question period in the House of Commons, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre sharply criticized the Liberal's safe supply policy intended to address the opioid crisis, saying his political opponents have “no common sense.“ The leader of the Official Opposition referenced a Global News story that found the federal government's safe supply is making its way to the streets. In a passionate retort, Canada's Mental Health and Addictions Minister Carolyn Bennett told Poilievre her party's safe supply technique is backed by science and saves lives, so people could be alive long enough to seek help for their addiction. “People are dying,“ Bennett said. “This is an evidence-based project and program, and it meets the test of evidence and science, not a journalist who only will speak to the people who disagree with him.“ For more info, please go to
