The simplest solution is to take Pierre Poilievre's plan. Death penalty for dealing over 40 mg fentanyl, 20 years for under 40 mg, forced treatment instead of free drugs (which end up killing high school kids and ensuring a new generation of addicts), and change the liberal "soft on crime" laws and problem solved.
