Dangerous drugs like fentanyl and methamphetamine are flooding our communities, destroying lives, and leaving families shattered. Every overdose death is someone’s child, parent, sibling, or friend — and every gram trafficked into our country is another step toward tragedy.

We need a national response that is stronger, smarter, and more compassionate. This means tougher sentencing for traffickers, more resources for law enforcement and border security, and decisive action against the tools of production. But it also requires recognizing that enforcement alone will not end this crisis. Without immediate, expanded access to mental health care, rehabilitation, and trauma-informed practices across our justice system, we will continue to lose lives and communities will continue to suffer.

Canada must act now with a coordinated, fully funded strategy that prioritizes both public safety and public health, ensuring accountability, compassion, and real progress in the fight against drug trafficking and addiction.

We are calling for:

• Stronger sentencing guidelines for trafficking fentanyl, methamphetamine, and other deadly substances, ensuring deterrence.
• Increase direct funding for police, border services, and intelligence agencies to investigate, dismantle, and prosecute trafficking networks.
• Strengthen border and port security with enhanced detection technology and intelligence-sharing.
• Launch a fully funded national strategy that integrates justice, public safety, mental health, and rehabilitation—acknowledging that enforcement alone cannot solve this crisis.
• Crack down on precursor chemicals and pill presses by enforcing national licensing and restrictions to prevent large-scale fentanyl production inside Canada.
  
• Expand and fast-track access to treatment and mental health services so those struggling with addiction can receive timely, effective care without long waitlists.
• Coordinate efforts across federal, provincial, and municipal governments to ensure a unified, measurable, and transparent anti-trafficking approach.
• Make trauma-informed training compulsory for every police officer, RCMP member, and justice professional in Canada so they can respond with compassion, awareness, and impact.
