Toronto saw a 35% spike in opioid overdose calls in late December 2025, driven by contaminated drugs containing dangerous substances.
Toronto saw a 35% surge in suspected opioid overdose calls from December 20 to 28, 2025, with 122 incidents—up from previous years—despite fewer than five fatalities.
Health officials attribute the spike to contaminated drugs, with 81% of fentanyl samples tested containing medetomidine, a dangerous veterinary tranquilizer, and many also laced with para-fluorofentanyl.
The holiday season’s stress and isolation may be contributing factors.
Authorities urge avoiding drug use alone, carrying naloxone, and using supervised consumption services, amid concerns over site closures due to Ontario’s 200-meter school restrictions.
