And that help is more than enough for the 80% that aren’t problem cases. The other 20% need other measures.

Cold turkey shelters can save addicts, and even if all the shelters are shut in the winter, they will still live. Addicts can still shoot up and die even with the shelters opened, and you seem to be OK with that.
Hey, you’re the one moving the goalposts, go ahead. And it’s “capiche.”

Because they can't possibly die in a cold-turkey shelter, which is somehow open when all the others are closed in this scenario? We've got safe injection sites and a detox centre (and a future replacement centre) for junkies to clean themselves up.
