Also the "tremendous amounts" of fentanyl coming in from Canada last year came to about 250 lbs.
i'm not sure if you meant the number to be interpreted literally, but isn't 250lbs of fentanyl a lot. both psychonautwiki and substancesearch state that a "heavy" dose, which is where you start to seriously risk overdosing, (regardless of method of administration) is around 100ug. some quick back of the napkin math:
of course, this is assuming 100% purity, so these numbers probably change quite substantially if "fentanyl" is actually defined as "substance containing fentanyl"
of course none of this is with the goal of defending whatever the fuck trump is doing, i just wanted to put into perspective that 250 lbs can actually be quite a lot for super potent substances like fentanyl
Actually I was way off. It was 10 lbs seized at the Canadian border.
