Kanada. Cannabis Legalization: Year One Observations
Provides the first summary of Canada’s experience in the first year of retail sales after cannabis legalization, with a focus on the public health and safety objectives of the Cannabis Act. Canada’s relationship with legal cannabis is evolving and the market is still developing. With the Act in effect for less than a year, any discussion of impact is limited to preliminary observations.

Mitigating opioids’ harm
Ideally, opioid addiction could be prevented altogether. But failing that, strategies to make drug use safer can curb opioid-related death. (Nature, USA, 10.09.2019)

Kanada. Overdose deaths would be at least twice as high without emergency harm reduction and treatment response
The rapid expansion of harm reduction services in response to B.C.’s overdose crisis prevented more than 3,000 possible overdose deaths during a 20-month period, suggests new research led by the BC Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC). (BCCDC, Kanada, 05.06.2019)

Women and harm reduction - Global State of Harm Reduction 2018 briefing
Women are estimated to account for one third of the 275 million people who use drugs globally. Women who use drugs are consistently reported to have less access to harm reduction services and to be at higher risk of HIV and hepatitis C infection than men who use drugs. Despite these reports, robust data on this subject is scarce, and research on drug use and related health issues rarely produces information about women. The Global State of Harm Reduction 2018 identifies a number of key issues and themes reflected across the world that limit women’s access to harm reduction services, and highlights cases of good practice.

Working with people who use drugs - Guidance for homelessness accommodation services
There is no legal requirement for homelessness services to provide specific support to individuals who use drugs, although it is common for people experiencing homelessness to be using drugs. Homelessness services vary in their tolerance to drug use, and the use of drugs can cause challenges for clients who are expected to adhere to organisational policies and procedures. This can be equally challenging for the organisation. There is, however, an opportunity for homelessness services to work with people using drugs, in order to help reduce harm, improve future prospects and increase opportunities of re-integration in to wider society.

Researchers verify new method of HIV transmission among injection drug users and effective prevention technique
“Cook your Wash” campaign reduces risk of HIV transmission
LONDON, ON – New studies from Lawson Health Research Institute and Western University have found for the first time that HIV can be transmitted through the sharing of equipment used to prepare drugs before injection and that a simple intervention – heating the equipment with a cigarette lighter for 10 seconds – can destroy the HIV virus, preventing that transmission. The findings, used to inform a public health campaign called ‘Cook Your Wash,’ have helped reduce rates of HIV transmission in London, Ontario. (Lawson Health Research Institute, Kanada, 25.04.2019)
