More on opioids, less on Caboto Club
I believe in equality for all people, but the Caboto Club issue is interfering with other, more significant problems in Windsor. Recently, there have not been many articles in the paper about Windsor’s opioid crisis. Deaths related to opioid overdoes have been higher than the provincial average. People are dying, and we are still concerning ourselves over the Caboto Club scandal.
The Caboto Club uproar has upset many people, and I completely understand why. It is not fair what they have been doing, and definitely unequal. On the other hand, it is not right that the opioid crisis hasn’t had equal coverage in recent weeks. Why take all of our anger out on the Caboto Club, when people have possession of multiple opioids and are overdoing them daily, which could ultimately lead to their deaths. We should be able to talk about the opioid crisis openly in schools around Windsor. Leading students down the right path is only the beginning of eliminating our crisis. Presentations should be set in order to successfully get the point across, and to make sure that our future generation has a good understanding of one of our biggest problems locally.
The Caboto Club has an “in house” problem that it must solve. Society cannot solve this problem. Society could solve the opioid crisis. When there are people dying due to drug abuse, more awareness should definitely be put into action.
