3 Fentanyl deaths per week, or thereabouts, apparently it's good for the organ market. Once a month somebody disappears, falls into a creek, or jumps maybe, the media is sensitive to the families, speculation is confined to the few close friends. A plane crashes, car crash, there's an assault, a break-in, it's a small town, everybody knows the victim, the perpetrator, it's strange, this, more personal, rarely in Calgary did the news make a difference, seldom did it impact you, but here, it's all personal, if you didn't know them somebody you know did, you're only ever one degree of separation from the news...
