Why can't ours?

In part because the Globe and Mail has waged an information war supporting right wing propaganda meant to convince the public that the only good in life is when a few key rich people get richer at the expense of everyone and everything, including viable systems.

When you work for a psychopathic death cult, these things tend to happen.

I don't know if Australia is facing the opioid crisis the same way Canada is, but if these public washrooms are going to be accessible to the public, the government needs to take drug addiction seriously and properly address it with the money and laws that it deserves.

I recently moved back to Edmonton briefly before coming back to Calgary, and where I remember public washrooms being accessible, they were all closed off, or too monitored to make me comfortable. Washrooms that used to be public in bus terminals and downtown pedways were always conveniently "out of service", and the open ones I did come across offered by the city had two security guards sitting directly outside them.

People wash their clothes in these washrooms, inject and snort drugs, and sleep in these washrooms. Here in Calgary the Exeloos are a running jokes because they cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and they're never available because they don't want people dealing with addictions abusing them.
