What's your proposal for individuals that resist voluntary treatment?
If 20% (a # plucked from the air) are resistant to voluntary treatment, what should be done?
As an aside, I would love to know the micromorts per use based on the current supply. BC estimated the micromorts to be around 1 in 2020, but that was on a population basis, and not by exposure to activity.
Would it rate up there with ascent of Everest, I wonder at 37,932 per successful ascent?

I don't have all of the answers, beyond it being a likely charter issue anyways on peoples rights, I would rather we focus our limited resources we have now on helping the 80% who have a better chance of success. It is just how I see it from a pragmatic point of view on how to improve things long term.
I'm willing to shift my opinion on this if someone has some better evidence but every data point I find suggests forced treatment does not work. All I see when I hear forced treatment is the resources we have now are stuck working the most difficult of cases while the waitlist of less advanced cases we have now continues to grow, and in 5 years time the problem is even worse when these same individuals relapse and we have an even larger list of people whos addictions are advanced.
