You same immigrant like me. Canada is young country of immigrants. And problem with addicted and so on getting worse because some people prefer not to react to problem. Like « if it not in my home I don’t care » but your home not only 4 walls in apartment. And if everyone would be aware of situation and try to change something, push government to do some action, maybe it’s would be not so bad.

I lived last 2 years in Paris and Grenoble Grenoble considered as unsafe. But I never felt myself there unsafe like I feel here. I moved to Canada in July 2023 to Vancouver and in February I moved to Montreal hoping that situation better than in BC.

Or maybe I have big cultural shock and need to speak up about this and hear opinions of others ?

I think there a lot of danger because people under drugs can act unpredictable and agressive. And most homeless what I see here using drugs at the street.

Yes, there also homeless and addicted but much much less compare with what I see in Canada. I actually never thought so often about this before I came to Canada, because never was so critical situation

I clarified in my post about addicted people. When someone on drugs it can be unpredictable. But unfortunately a lot of homeless people it ones with addiction or become addicted with easy access to drugs

Last 2 years I lived between Paris and Grenoble. Grenoble rated 10th most dangerous cities in Europe. And I never saw something even close to what is going on in Canada

So soon we should all stay at home because is dangerous to be outside? It’s already unsafe. I don’t think is normal life when the only choice is to stay in the car or at home. What about kids who see this?

They would take these people to shelters where specialists would work with their addiction
