Letters to the editor, June 1: ‘It should not be the responsibility of civil servants to get Ottawa ’s economy going’Pedestrians make their way along Sparks Street Mall near the Peace Tower on Parliament Hill in Ottawa , on Nov. 9, 2021.As employees, public servants should be encouraged to bring forward ideas and strategies to management. But following that, management decides the direction to be taken and the public service is expected, is obligated, to deliver.

Now, everything goes through a political level that seems to lack a full understanding and capacity to explain. But public servants work for us. Feel free to look them up and send a note. If they can’t answer, they will say so.: Doug Ford says that “you got to get the economy going.” It should not be the responsibility of civil servants to get Ottawa’s economy going.

And, most importantly, people would be happier, hence more productive, and invested in their jobs. Let’s think outside the city centre.: As a retired pharmacist who supported methadone programs, I have been somewhat in favour of supervised harm-reduction sites and “safe supply.” After reading this article, it is obvious to me that current initiatives are not working and perhaps there is a better way.

Marshall Smith’s approach to drug sobriety seems to provide much-needed hope to individuals and families suffering with addiction. Parents should keep watch, refrain from minimizing drug use, maintain open lines of communication and, if necessary, seek help. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. It’s life, and it’s complicated.Having been in recovery for more than 31 years , I am glad that more access to treatment is coming to Alberta.
