The safe injection site at the Region of Peel building near Chinguacousy Park will be shut down on March 31, 2025 .

The decision reflects a clear commitment to protecting families and maintaining public safety.

They've entrenched cycles of addiction, increased public drug use, and left neighbourhoods grappling with discarded needles and heightened safety concerns.
