Three people were taken to hospital from the Escapade Music Festival to be treated for overdoses on Saturday, only two days after the Ottawa Paramedic Service had issued a blunt warning about drug use.
None of the patients was considered to be in life-threatening condition, paramedics said Saturday evening.
A fourth person was taken from the two-day electronic music festival, which wraps up Sunday, with a broken leg.
“Any drug can contain fentanyl and kill you,” paramedics had said as they released a video set to a pulsing techno beat similar to what festival-goers would be dancing to at the ninth annual Escapade. “Are you trusting a drug dealer with your life?”
Rockfest had kicked off the summer festival season a week earlier in Montebello, where a 25-year-old Oshawa, Ont., man died from an apparent overdose.
On Saturday, paramedics tweeted out a message to Escapade party-goers, writing, “#Partysafe to have a night to remember and not one you want to forget.” Accompanying it was a photo of body on a stretcher, a sheet pulled over it, with superimposed words: “One pill can kill you! Do you trust a drug dealer with your life?”
Escapade organizers say on their website that illegal or illicit substances, drugs and drug paraphernalia will not be allowed at the festival, and they link to both the health department’s “party safe” resources and to Project Soundcheck, which works to prevent sexual violence at large events.
