We’re taking action to cut off crystal meth at the source and ensure support is available to individuals and families affected by meth use. The province is:

  • restricting the sale of 17 over-the-counter drugs containing pseudoephedrine, an ingredient used to make crystal meth;
  • increasing funding for mental health and addictions programs;
  • providing enhanced training to addiction and mental health front-line staff; and
  • establishing a co-ordinated approach to clean up meth labs after police have left the site.
