Description
July 25, 2017
It's no secret that it's shaping up to be another record year for overdose deaths in B.C. Including the Okanagan and a Kelowna woman feels it's time the City of Kelowna join the rest of the world by acknowledging the problem. She's asked the mayor to sign a proclamation declaring August 31st International Overdose Awareness Day in Kelowna and as Kelly Hayes reports, the mayor didn't hesitate.
