More than 2,500 Canadians died from opioid-related overdoses in 2016, according to the Public Health Agency of Canada. The situation is particularly grave in the West. This year, British Columbia alone is on track to see 1,400 deaths due to opioids. The province declared a state of emergency in April 2016, and Alberta followed suit in May 2017. But the opioid crisis is affecting the entire country, with Ontario having committed $222 million over three years to combat overdoses in August and Nova Scotia funding overdose kits through pharmacies since September.
