Episode 49: The Best Place



Vancouver, British Columbia, is one of the best places on earth – a world class city surrounded by ocean and mountains. If you can afford it, the good life is yours. 

But over the last fifteen years, Vancouver has become more dangerous for drug users than ever before. Especially young drug users. 

In episode 49, we hear from professor Danya Fast and Sarah West, one of Danya’s research collaborators. Both reflect on what it’s like to witness and to document preventable deaths during this crisis.
