I know there has been a ton of coverage - of recent - concerning PMMA adulterated ecstasy pills in western Canada, therefore, I apologize for posting yet another article in relation to the situation - however I want to give a heads up notice to fellow bluelighters who regularly (or even on occasion) use ecstasy and are living in and around Winnipeg (who don't know) that PMMA apparently is now in your area - beware.

A highly toxic drug linked to at least 13 deaths in Western Canada has been found in Winnipeg.

Health Canada spokesperson Gary Holub confirmed to Metro testing done in Winnipeg late last year turned up three samples of the drug, called para-methoxyamphetamine (PMMA). One sample was also found in Vancouver.

“For these four exhibits, PMMA was found in combination with other drugs like methamphetamine, MDMA and even cocaine, in one sample,” said Holub.

PMMA is considered five times more toxic than MDMA, which is normally found in ecstasy. PMMA mixed into ecstasy has been confirmed responsible for at least eight deaths in Alberta and five in B.C.

Yet they still won't release the print of the pill.

I Really hope whoever put this bullshit out onto the streets gets sent the fuck down and raped every day for the rest of his life. theres NO excuse for putting out pmma as mdma.
 
^I say he should be forced to dose his own pills until he suffers an adverse reaction like he is plaguing my damn country with.
 
5 times more toxic

What the hell does that mean?
That 5 times more cells will die in a solution of X mol of PMMA?
That it takes 1/5th the amount to kill cells, period?
That PMMA kills 5 times as many people per time period as MDMA?
OR, what I think they mean, but can not be sure of due to how it was written, that the LD50 in some animal model of PMMA is 5 times lower than that of MDMA?
 
So the PMMA was in powder form and not pressed into pills? This worries me.. I have quite a few friends that take capsules. Most of us have the same source, who I trust. But it still worries me... may be time to invest in a test kit
 
honestly a cop needs to blow the whistle on what the press is. 13 people, how many more are going to die as the complete their investigation
