A strange hypocrisy...

Vancouver injection clinic cuts overdose deaths: journal - Overdose deaths down in area around the facility

The Harper government is currently in court trying to shut down the facility, despite the fact that the stats show a drop of 35% in deaths as a result of it. I guess it's just bad to be an addict and they feel that the people, 'if they're like to die, should do so and decrease the surplus population'.

I can't understand people supporting a supposed 'pro-life' political party that is only pro-life until the child is born at which time they do everything they can to prevent any kind of support to help the child, parents, etc. I guess being pro-life ends at birth for them...
