It’s hard to fathom, and it may be the most graphic representation of the opioid crisis currently gripping Vancouver.
On Wednesday, Vancouver Police Supt. Michelle Davey tweeted a photo from a Downtown Eastside Single Room Occupancy (SRO) residency that shows a pigeon nest made out of needles.
Along with the nest, three eggs can be seen.
