The Conservative Party of B.C. is calling for a public inquiry after a leaked provincial health ministry document brought to light the trafficking of government “safe supply” drugs.

The document released to the public by the B.C. Conservatives was a presentation developed by the health ministry for law enforcement. It noted that 22,418,000 doses of opioids were prescribed through the province’s “safe supply” program between 2022 and 2024.
