Vancouver BC, having instituted "safe shooting galleries" with bleach, alcohol, and safe clean needles, soon had a problem with street crime as junkies migrated to the city.

Guess what, they are now considering "free" heroin for junkies so they won't need to steal to get dope.

Yep. Vancouver also now has the second highest rate of property crime in North America; second only to Miami.

It was interesting to see how the face of Vancouver changed from about 1990 to today...as it became a model of libertarian drug policy.
