A big part of addressing homelessness is recovery. Without access to addiction treatment and recovery services, too many people are left trapped in a cycle that keeps them off the path to stability. Real compassion means helping people recover, not just helping them survive.

Addiction should never be a life sentence. My Private Member’s Bill C-240 supports abstinence-based recovery, giving offenders the opportunity to overcome addiction, restore their lives, and reduce the cycle of crime. Recovery works.

If you feel like life has knocked you down from addiction, financial hardship, or just trying to make it through another day, just know, hope is real. People can recover. Lives can change. That’s why I believe so strongly in Bill C-240 and the power of abstinence-based recovery
