Swift Current City RCMP responded alongside other EMS services to these calls and worked alongside them to help provide care during these incidents.
The big driver behind this increase in overdoses appears to be correlating directly to the increased presence of fentanyl.
There is a notion that people who have been around the substance abuse lifestyle are confident that they can trust the product they are getting, and that they can handle the additives found within.
For the City RCMP, they will be looking to keep fentanyl and other narcotics from entering the city in the coming year.
