The provincial director of police services independently initiated a request for an investigation into the leak of a health ministry document suggesting ‘safe supply’ drugs were being trafficked, B.C. Premier David Eby says, noting the government cannot interfere in the RCMP probe.
B.C. Conservative MLA Elenore Sturko released the document publicly in February after a whistleblower provided her party with a related slide show presentation created by the health ministry for law enforcement agencies.
