Comments by Nick Blomley and Kendra Strauss greatly benefited the larger project from which this paper comes. We also thank Tom Baker and Cristina Temenos for insightful comments, as well as the two anonymous reviewers and Ronan Paddison for guidance on improving an earlier draft.

This work was supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, Royal Canadian Geographical Society, and the Association of American Geographers Urban Specialty Group. 1 Abstract This article contributes to the conceptualization of how policy models circulate by analyzing the ‘frontier politics’ that occurs when a mobile policy meets resistance and constraint. We argue that advocates of harm reduction drug policy operate within a constrained political-institutional environment, but one that is not closed or predetermined. We make the argument in reference to struggles over harm reduction drug policy in Surrey, BC, a suburban municipality in Greater Vancouver. Thus, even at frontiers, policy change may occur, even if slowly, incrementally, or cautiously.
