Addiction News Daily is a collection of news stories about addiction and the use or misuse of alcohol and illicit drugs. The stories are chosen for their potential interest to Canadians and are of national significance. They may have implications for policy development in Canada, highlight a new or emerging trend, or report on international policy, programs, initiatives or research. Stories about gambling or smoking are included where there is significant content or overlap with alcohol and illicit drug use or misuse.

Some links are unstable or require registration

Addiction News Daily presents online information that is current and easily accessible to our readers. Unfortunately, links to sources can become unstable or require registration.

For links that require registration

Addiction News Daily avoids linking to news stories that require registration by our readers and, where possible, will link to the same story through sources not requiring registration. As a result, certain news sources may not be represented on a regular basis.
