Introduction

BC Premier David Eby says that involuntary treatment for addictions could cause more harm than good. Former RCMP officer and Canadian Armed Forces officer, the newest BC liberal MLA representing Surrey South is Eleanor Stercow. Stercow: "I don't think it's as black and white as what people like to make it" We already have elements of involuntary care within our mental health act but there are parameters a person must meet before they can be brought into care involuntarily.
