Needle Exchange Program

Sick

Something has to change. There is zero reason for this!

I believe if they want to get free clean needles they should have to bring back the used ones in a safe container as proof of safety for all before getting any new needles.

Our babies should not have to be at risk of receiving a terrible disease because they played at a public park. There need to be stricter procedures at the safe injection site. Parents whose children have come in contact with dirty needles should be suing the City of Lethbridge for being so unbelievably irresponsible. Shame on you!

Drugs are not the solution. Get this out of our city!!

We give all the money to the addicts but not to people who need the supplies like diabetes.

There needs to be zero needles distributed in the city..millions spent for a user facility ....... Needles stay there..

I think we need rules put in place

I see lethbridge has climbed to 27 in highest crime town in Canada. needles need to stay on site,

This has to stop, my child goes threw that parking lot four times a week. Anybody is at risk, the solution has got to be simple and direct, its common sense.

This has homeboy far enough, now a toddler has been poked by a dirty needle, a parents worst nightmare. Hoping for the best possible outcome for this child and hoping the city and ARCHES come up with a better solution to this problem.

My friends son was poked with a dirty needle in my son's preschool parkinglot. That could have been my child. This needs to stop..

So sick and tired of giving my hard-earned money away. Of giving my husband's hard-earned money away. So sick of Chris Spearman thinking that these people deserve a chance. Always the same people begging for the same things and expecting a handout. Now they're expecting a handout with free needles. This needs to stop. If they choose to do the drugs, they need to face the consequences... And if that is death, then so be it! Thank you to Lyra

I think this is brutal, it’s not right children are coming into contact with this! How does providing a safe injection site justify whether or not it’s legal? Why do people have to fight for what they need to live a safe, or even to possibly live but people who have become involved in drugs of their own will are provided for?

We need to protect our kids and not make matters worst by giving free needles out.

My own son got poked by a dirty needle just walking home from school. There are no safe places and the issue is out of control.

Tired of junkies dumping their dangerous garbage around our city and doing robberies, break ins and car break ins to support their habit.

I agree with this completley, There is even many ways they could avoid it as if they don’t bring back the same amount as they had taken out previously they can’t get anymore something as simple as that. This is becoming ridiculous in this city thanks for doing something actually useful for this city !
