Since the congregation took naloxone training in March, there’s been seven outside St. Albans. But that number is quite modest. At the drop-in centre beneath the church, where some of Ottawa’s most afflicted seek daytime refuge once the overnight shelters close, they’re doing at least one [naloxone application] a day.

It's not so crazy when you realize that people are going through tremendous amounts of pain and suffering every day. When you've tried everything available to you and nothing improves, what's the next logical step for getting rid of that pain? A life like that isn't worth living, so realistically, what are you giving up on by turning to drugs?
