In this week’s News From The Drug War Front:

Locally…

‘Dangers of illicit vapes causing harm to teenagers’ has been a in the news in Australia recently. A New South Wales Community Drug Alert has warned of powerful synthetic opioids called nitazenes in illicit vape juice. At least 3 OD’s and one death have been linked.

In international news…

Fentanyl continues to be reported on in international media. Suspicious letters sent to election workers in 6 US States this month has led to a call for naloxone to be supplied. However, this has been criticised by those who think provision of naloxone should focus on harm reduction workers who work with people likely to overdose.

We will discuss an article “Canadian-made fentanyl is an international problem, RCMP says”. The head of the unit responsible for fighting organised crime says Canada is not just a significant producer of fentanyl-we also export it”.

It’s time to end prohibition and instead legalise and regulate all drugs, according to a recent 84-page Reason Foundation report entitled “Drug Legalisation Handbook”.

The show is co-presented by Geoff Ward and Marion Watson.
