People on one hand will argue you can't stop people from doing drugs if they want, so we should just let them do it. But obviously we know having thousands of hardcore drug addicts living on the streets is bad for them AND the rest of us. So how do you deal with that, especially if rehab programs allow you to just tap out and hit the streets again? Very few successfully make it through and get clean. They try, but then they're back to nodding off in random public spaces soon after.
This crisis is costing thousands of lives, tens of millions of dollars, destroying families and friendships, endangers the general public, degrades our community and so much more. If someone refuses to improve, would it be so wrong to involuntarily commit them to a facility that can get them off drugs?
The west generally, but particularly the UK and Canada refuse to do anything reverse the decline of their decaying societies because doing the neccessary dirty work is "too mean". No, round all the drug addicts up and ship them off to some rehab facility and don't let them out until they're no longer addicted.
The only issue is that in Canada from what I've seen since becoming old enough to be able to undertand these things is that corruption seems rampant and our tax dollars vanish and we somehow "don't have the budget" to do anything significant ever.
