As the number of overdoses rise in Ontario, there are calls by municipal and health-care leaders for the provincial and federal governments to do more to stop the crisis.

Belleville, Ont. was hit with 23 over the course of two days this past week. In Guelph, there were seven drug poisonings Thursday. In Hamilton, officials warned paramedics had seen a rise in suspected drug poisoning where some “required three or more rounds of naloxone administration.”
