Apart from the policy prescription — favouring the Alberta treatment model over the British Columbia “harm reduction” model — the political play was to generate a contrast with “elite” opinion. It’s an argument with punch: the government provides free illegal drugs to those suffering from addiction while ordinary families face a shortage of children’s pain medication.
The villains are well known: doctors who over-prescribed, pharmaceutical companies that became drug pushers and, to be very specific, McKinsey & Company, the global management consultancy. Then there is McKinsey. The epitome of the international “creative class” that has prospered mightily these last decades, it had its own

No offence to the insect but PiPo is a butterfly, flitting from topic to topic, making a pronouncement and moving right on. As long as he gets likes in a platform his team are reassured of his greatness. Does he develop policies to improve Canadians lives - naah that doesn't sell
