There was an article in the record about the temporary SIS site in London, ON.

Sadly, it didn't go that deeply into statistics around the sites, even crime statistics which should be fairly easy to get.
At the end of the day, I'm generally willing to trust the experts on this. I also agree there *may* be *some* negative effects, but the one thing the article points out, is those effects are not being created by the SIS, at worst, they're being slightly relocated by it. We already have a drug problem.
There are also plenty of folks who think the SIS will *encourage* drug use, but I've seen no evidence whatsoever based on this.
