Ultimately, they put people in Saskatchewan at risk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Communities across Canada face intersecting challenges of poverty, homelessness, a dangerously unregulated drug supply, and health inequities. To meaningfully address these challenges and improve life for all people, governments must implement compassionate, evidence-based public policy that upholds principles of public health and human rights.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/news\/canada\/saskatchewan\/sask-plans-for-safer-inhalation-supplies-1.4897188\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">nearly six years<\/a>, the provision of sterile pipes and information on safer inhalation has been part of efforts to reduce the transmission of hepatitis C and HIV, promote safety for people using drugs in Saskatchewan, and connect people to health and social supports. This abrupt policy change not only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.publichealthontario.ca\/-\/media\/Documents\/H\/2023\/harm-reduction-services-smoking-inhaling-drugs.pdf?rev=255f0227310e46448c8c30ace7b6ef02&amp;sc_lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">undermines these efforts but also puts people at risk of harm<\/a>, placing an undue burden on communities, Saskatchewan\u2019s health system and those who work within it, and community organizations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The shift to a &#8220;one-for-one&#8221; needle exchange is <a href=\"https:\/\/ohrn.org\/resources\/one-for-one\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">not only outdated but counterproductive,<\/a> likely increasing rates of infection in Saskatchewan and exacerbating the challenges faced by people at risk of overdose. Given <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/content\/dam\/phac-aspc\/documents\/services\/publications\/diseases-conditions\/hiv-2021-surveillance-highlights\/PHAC-HIVinCanada2021-Info-EN-2023Update_V5.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the province&#8217;s unfortunate distinction as a hot spot for HIV transmission in Canada<\/a>, and the disproportionate impact this has on Indigenous communities in Saskatchewan, it is crucial to reconsider this policy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The policy appears fiscally reckless, as the cost to manage new cases of HIV and hepatitis C is considerably high. Preventing new infections through sterile supplies and safer use information is a vastly more cost-effective approach. We urge the government to responsibly steward public funds by continuing to invest in health interventions proven to reduce transmission and alleviate the strain on health care systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Saskatchewan government\u2019s inability to cite any evidence in support of these policy changes raises serious questions about the decision-making process. A focus on a &#8220;recovery-oriented system of care&#8221; need not come at the expense of cost-effective, evidence-based strategies with proven benefits to public health. Evidence has consistently demonstrated how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/ssp\/syringe-services-programs-summary.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">harm reduction supplies and information can connect people to health and social supports, including voluntary treatment.<\/a> Limiting access to safety education and health services does not decrease substance use: it only makes people less safe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The HIV Legal Network and Canadian Drug Policy Coalition urge the Government of Saskatchewan to reconsider these policy changes. To ensure the well-being of all residents, we invite you to engage in a constructive dialogue with people with lived and living experience, front-line and health workers, health and scientific experts and other affected communities. We would welcome an opportunity to discuss this issue with you and offer research and policy resources on effective measures to ensure the well-being of all people in Saskatchewan.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thank you for your attention to this matter.&nbsp;We look forward to your response.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sincerely,&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DJ Larkin, Executive Director, Canadian Drug Policy Coalition&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Janet Butler-McPhee and Sandra Ka Hon Chu, Co-Executive Directors, HIV Legal Network&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>January 25, 2024 To:\u00a0 Hon.
