  A timely, insider account of an important and controversial step in British Columbia’s strategic effort to respond to the overdose crisis. 
  Canada is in the middle of an opioid crisis. Since the province of British Columbia declared a public health emergency in 2016, more than 9,400 people have died of drug poisoning in BC―an average of six people a day―with nearly 1,500 apparent opioid-related deaths in the first eight months of 2022. 
  In Decrim, Kennedy Stewart, mayor of Vancouver from 2018 to 2022, recounts historic progress in addressing this crisis. January 31, 2023, is the beginning of a three-year trial period for decriminalizing the possession of small amounts of hard drugs in British Columbia, a ground-breaking change in Canada’s approach to drug use. Kennedy Stewart has written Decrim to tell the story of how this remarkable policy change came about and the enormous challenges faced by those who fought for it―including its contribution to him losing his bid for mayoral re-election. In Decrim, Stewart lays out how ending the “war on drugs” and recognizing the overdose crisis as a public health issue will help reduce stigma related to substance use, increase access to health services, and decrease harms related to criminalization in British Columbia.

  The Monkey King visited the Eastern Ocean Dragon King's palace and took away the Divine Treasure to serve as his own weapon. The Dragon King sued him to Heaven. The Jade Emperor approved Gold Star's idea to pacify the Monkey King by giving him an empty title. The Monkey King felt insulted and returned to his tribe with great anger, proclaiming himself the Great Sage Equal to Heaven. Gold Star again suggested pacification, so the Jade Emperor granted the monkey his desired title and appointed him Supervisor of the Orchard of Immortal Peaches. When the monkey discovered he had not been invited to the Grand Peach Banquet hosted by Queen Mother, he was so outraged that he wrecked the banquet. The Jade Emperor sent a heavenly army to capture the monkey. After a long and hard battle, the monkey was finally captured by Erlang and sent to the Taoist Master's furnace to be burned. However, the monkey was still alive and even gained refined powers. He kicked his way out of the furnace, wrecked the Jade Emperor's throne room, and escaped.
