La crise du fentanyl est d’abord et avant tout une crise de santé publique. Le Bloc Québécois soutient qu’une hausse massive du financement de la santé par les transferts fédéraux est la seule manière d’améliorer l’offre déficiente en soins de santé mentale, en places dans les centres de réadaptation, en accès rapide aux soins d’urgence, en travailleurs sociaux, en centres de consommation supervisée et en réduction des méfaits.
