Horizontal evaluation of the Canadian Drugs and Substances Strategy : evaluation report / prepared by the Office of Audit and Evaluation, Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada. : HP5-177/2023E-PDF

"Canada is experiencing an unprecedented rate of substance use-related deaths and harms due to a number of complex, interrelated factors. The Canadian Drugs and Substances Strategy (CDSS), which was first announced in 2016, sets out the federal government's comprehensive, collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to drug policy that focuses on substance use as a public health issue. The CDSS replaced the National Anti-Drug Strategy (NADS), which was established in 2006, and the lead changed from the Department of Justice to Health Canada. From 2017 to 2022, Health Canada coordinated federal investments and activities across the full spectrum of legal and illegal substances under four pillars: prevention, treatment, harm reduction, and enforcement. ... This evaluation looked at all funded partners' activities from 2017-18 to 2021-22 under both horizontal initiatives and focused on progress made toward delivering on Pillar objectives and shared outcomes, including HC's Substance Use and Addictions Program (SUAP) and PHAC's Harm Reduction Fund activities to address Financial Administration Act requirements. However, activities related to tobacco and cannabis, including SUAP projects for these substances, were excluded from this evaluation as there were separate evaluations assessing activities related to these two substances"--Executive summary, page 5.
