I wonder what the recovery rate is for addicts that are taking his programs?
From what I understand (and I'm from Vancouver) the harm reduction programs are not about getting people off drugs. There's also a program in Van and Ontario that provides 12 hourly doses of alcohol (their choice of beer, vodka or wine) to homeless alcoholics as harm reduction because otherwise they'd be drinking rubbing alcohol and mouthwash which is more poisonous. But the intention is not to get them well, just keep them out of hospitals because these individuals typically are admitted very frequently to hospitals, and it's cheaper to give them safer booze than admit them to hospital so much.
I do like that the doc interviewed has compassion on his clients.
