I was always a proponent of safe injection sites because all the experts agreed it was the best way to reduce overdoses and help people with drug addictions. What gives me pause is how it went in Vancouver and how the public turned against it to the point that it was a major election talking point. I wonder why it failed there and what can be learned from it.
Can you confirm you mean safe injection sites and not safe supply?
I could be wrong but I assumed the article was referring to safe injection sites.

You’re right about that! I just thought the controversy in BC was about safe supply, but I am out of the loop and not doing a good job googling.

I worked at Dundas and Victoria for years, just around the corner from the safe injection site for years and the only way you could tell it was there was the sign. I know they were never without controversy but it would suck if they were facing increased backlash.
