A few weeks ago there was a thread in my local sub which I wrote off as schizo rambling. Someone was claiming a chain of foster homes was providing kids in care with weed every day, in an effort to make them docile and easier to manage. Lots of scepticism and basically OP was told to contact both CFS and the CBC. The thread of course is long gone.
Weeks go by and CBC runs a front page article
Province cuts ties with Winnipeg foster home operator after teens given marijuana daily
In which all of OPs claims were vindicated. If you needed any more proof that enabling junkies and letting them wallow in addiction is immoral, this is probably it.
Staff were told by upper management it was better to have workers at the home provide cannabis than risk residents going elsewhere and doing harder drugs, such as methamphetamine and opioids.
"It's easier to just keep [them] placated and happy than to have to deal with the paperwork, police and hospitals," the former employee said.
She said an underage teen who had never smoked marijuana in her life started smoking it daily after she moved into a Spirit Rising House home.
The foster homes were run by some guy who believes in enabling junkies and was giving kids a gram of weed a day. That's over an ounce a month for a kid. Absolutely insane amounts of weed for teens. If you had any doubts this is proof harm reduction proponents lack a moral compass.
