According to the Metro Vancouver Web site, the city is hosting a series of talks called "Drugs and Crime: Dealing With Your Drug Problem". Meetings have been scheduled for the Eaglequest Coyote Creek golf club in Surrey, the Hollyburn Country Club in West Vancouver, and the Inlet Theatre in Port Moody. Eby questioned the value of such talks when they are held at "country clubs and in areas that aren't traditionally accessible to the population that usually has to deal with the drug problems and with poverty". - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
