It’s not quite clear how many drug overdoses took place in Moncton, N.B., this weekend, but the executive director of the province’s only overdose prevention site is alarmed. Scott Phipps with Ensemble Greater Moncton said his team heard everything from five to more than 28 overdoses on Saturday. “There was a death confirmed,” said Phipps, who couldn’t confirm the age or sex of the victim. It’s also not known where they all took place. “We’ve heard mixed reports,” said Phipps.
