When Traci Letts finally found the perfect shoes for her son Mike – a pair of white Nike trainers with a splash of green – the store didn’t have the right size.
When they appear in court on Thursday, Eris Nyx and Jeremy Kalicum will argue that Canada’s public health agency is ill-equipped to respond to the unfolding disaster – and that radical measures are necessary to stop people dying.

Last year the Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre, prompted outrage on a visit to Vancouver, when he described the city as “hell on earth”, infuriating residents who accused him of using a vulnerable community as a political punching bag.
