Robson Reading Series with Dr. Gabor Mate

For over ten years Gabor Maté has been the staff physician at the Portland Hotel, a residence and harm reduction facility in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. His patients are challenged by life-threatening drug addictions, schizophrenia, mental ill-ness, Hepatitis C, HIV and, in many cases, all four. But if Dr. Maté's patients are at the far end of the spectrum, how many of us are also struggling with addiction?

B.C. drug injection site legal, court rules

In a surprise ruling, the court supported Vancouver's experimental supervised injection clinic and halted federal attempts to close the facility.  

Judge Ian Pitfield said Insite should be allowed to remain open for a year even without a federal exemption from current drug laws. 

 ISSA had organized the INSITE Conference on Thursday, March 6th 2008, which was a great initiative towards getting the limelight on INSITE`s achievement, and how politics had manipulated and suppressed the scientific research done on the effectiveness on INSITE.
