In an effort to treat Canadians enslaved by a junk habit, the Liberal government has taken action against an old law by imposing a new set of regulations that will allow medical professionals to provide addicts with daily doses of pharmaceutical-grade heroin
Your thread title is an outright lie. Per your very own link you provided, if you had read it, says that this enables doctors to prescribe heroin for addicts, it has NOT legalized it for general use.

And you fell for the lie because you don't bother to read beyond a false thread title.

Seems to be par for the course here on CD.
Having Doctors that can help addicts get the help they need is a good thing. Treat addiction and addicts as the health issue it is, instead of useless incarceration.
If you stuck the average heroin user with a simple heroin addiction on a deserted island, they will never die from lack of heroin... I am not saying its easy to quit and I am not even saying its wrong to legalize heroin... but you can quit cold turkey if you don't have access... problem is people will never stop cold turkey because they will always have access... like smoking, drinking, other illicit drugs, etc etc... last time I check, heroin isn't the only addictive drug... if you do heroin, what about PCP, LSD, cocaine, etc etc... it seems ironic that its only heroin because you can't go cold turkey...
Like the island analogy.
Unlike alcohol, no one dies from heroin detox. They just feel like they are.
No shortage of addicts who go cold turkey in jail, often related to charges of shoplifting and theft.
Once out, they don't stay clean because their drug of choice is readily available. All they have to do is beg, borrow or steal to make it happen.
I don't think all the drugs you mention have the same addictive qualities as an apiate/ opioid.

I added the 2nd link to snopes so that people can read the full story. It explains what the legalization in this case means.
That's great! Now they can tax it and potentially make millions! I wonder if they're going to open Heroine shops soon (aka Heroine dens).
We need to do it too.
