Candidate for Kelowna mayor suggests using drugs to motivate the homeless

KELOWNA, B.C. (CP) - One of the five candidates running for mayor in Kelowna has come up with an unusual idea on how to deal with the city’s drug-addicted homeless people.
Andrew Uitvlugt (eyet-vlooked) said crack could be used as a reward or incentive to motivate people to pick up garbage in the city.
He figures the addicts will start to feel good about themselves and need less crack as a result, CKOV radio reported Thursday.
”So what I propose to do, is to possibly motivate people with drugs to do constructive work, like get them out there picking up garbage, and then we’ll give them some crack,” he says on the website www.okbc.tv in a video campaign pitch for the Nov. 19 municipal election.
”Now what’ll happen here, is after they’re done picking up their garbage, they’re going to feel somewhat good, they’re going to think to themselves, ‘You know, I did a good job today.’ And they’re going to maybe need less crack.”
Uitvlugt said he would also like to move the homeless to a combined shelter and retraining centre at the city dump, where they could use the available materials to build things and get marketable skills.
