The kit includes straws and wallet\u002Dsized cards for cutting powdered drugs into snortable lines — as well as a booklet on \u0027staying safe\u0027
The kit’s distribution to minors was first brought to light by conservative commentator Aaron Gunn. In a Saturday tweet that has since garnered more than 600,000 views, Gunn included images of the kit, saying it had been handed out at a high school in the Cowichan Valley — a region just north of the provincial capital of Victoria.
“We were recently made aware of materials that were left at one of our school sites from a third-party harm reduction and drug addiction presentation that we do not consider school or age appropriate,” wrote the district on Sunday, adding that it was undertaking a “full investigation” of its policies regarding third-party presentations.
