Canada Reference to Free Drugs.
In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, citizens are trapped in their chemically induced happiness, rendered docile and complaint with the state, by a drugs which are legal in BC, by the NDP government.
Canada is not the dystopian state that Huxley envisioned existing in London in 2450 AD, but a recent Medical Mortality Rounds by Dr. Stephen Vanner, Deputy head of Medicine, on narcotic over-prescription in Canada did give me a flash-forward to, a rise in the use of opioids in general and a shift away from arguably less potent forms, such as codeine, to more potent and addictive forms, such as oxycodone. Free Drugs to Citizens of BC to keep them happy is now 2024, not 2450. Like George Orwells 1984, Both Huxley and Orwell were eerily right on target with their books
