The Rev. Canon Dr. Alison Falby, holding cross, leads The Way of the Cross in the Opioid Epidemic in downtown Toronto on Good Friday. Walkers stopped to pray at locations where people have died of opioid overdoses. The walk began and ended at All Saints Church-Community Centre, located on the corner of Dundas and Sherbourne streets. Below, the names of people who died are written on a wall outside the church. About 21 people die of opioid overdoses each day in Canada, a third of those in Ontario. Four of the 10 supervised consumption sites in Toronto were closed as of March 31, with two more in danger of closing. More than 60 per cent of parishes in the diocese have supported a call to keep supervised consumption sites open in Ontario.
