Some people buy food before dope

In response to the letter in Nunatsiaq News, written from Cape Dorset on July 25, concerning dope use being a natural thing.

I have to disagree with it because not everyone, as the writer puts it, spends all their money on drugs and leaves their family hungry.

Although people here do drugs, they at least buy food first before dope.

I’d say dope is no use if it just creates more problems, like letting your children be hungry.
