about time

Can you sweep every day and then perhaps they will realize it's just too expensive to do business in Kelowna.
Let's also not forget Rutland where they deal and smoke their drugs where ever they want with impunity.

They could just setup surveillance at 7-11 on Bernard and nail the dealers that come do drop-offs at all hours of the day. Then the users hang out over at the complex where No Frills is and do their drugs, start fires, do graffiti, drink open liquor and leave garbage all over the place. That whole block smells like urine and excrement!

Isn't it odd how our government smugly criticizes other countries yet they don't have these problems...the death of 50,000 Canadians at the hands of dealers since 2015 doesn't even motivate them!

The government is the biggest pusher.
All the bleeding hearts need to have addicts laying all over their well manicured lawns and peeing in their doorways.
Giving narcotics to drug addicts, not "substance abuse disorder,' is a complete disaster as evidenced by the numbers and the zombies we have to look at everyday. These people cannot function in society and need HELP we cannot provide by handing drugs out like fools.

Liberals and the NDP should be arrested and jailed both parties are rotten to the core and the RCMP protect them
Even when police are being treated like garbage in society
Catch and release fentanyl dealers is pathetic

and judges will let them out the same day.

[ashcii]

using weed, shrooms, and cigarettes, to justify ramping up law enforcement is ridiculous. This is all just a way to spook the public and book more overtime.

Anyone reading this or that article needs to watch Documentary of Aaron Gunn's called "The Deadliest Scandal In Canadian History ". Seriously 100%. When a retired Cop says "London police officers with London tax payers money are removing drugs opiates provided by the government, if that's not madness then I no longer know what is "...<--Ya that!

Rutland could use some more police over the summer. Behind Plaza 33 perhaps. Or, near the social services building.

Enforcement means taking away the get out of jail free deck of cards that each drug addicted criminals has. Otherwise the additional enforcement means nothing.

our city leaders sadly have made it very clear they do not care about rutland

What about the rest of the city?

Yup! No one wants the revolving door prison system we currently have in Canada. The liberals say, it's too expensive to house them, so I have an easy solution! Make them work to pay back their debt to society! Many prisons around the world do this.
