“"I'm sure there will be kids saying, 'Hey if he does it, we can do it.'" She said
Trudeau’s policy on marijuana has been difficult to follow and accused him of
coming out with a popular stance to lure younger voters. "It's more an
attention grabber than a serious position," she said. The NDP supports
decriminalizing possession of marijuana, while Trudeau moved to support the
legalization of pot last November.”

“This is not how you stop organized crime. A number of the witnesses who came here
even said that prisons could be places for encouraging organized crime. An inmate who
gets out of prison has friends, telephone numbers and sources. They know everything.
They get encouragement from other criminals. Why then do we not get them out of that
place and get them involved in programs, set them on the right path, tell them that they
have to reinvest in society, go out to work and pay their taxes? That will all come back to
Canadians and be good for Canada. That is how we are going to solve the problem of
drugs and organized crime, the problem of trafficking in drugs like marijuana.”

"... Criminal provisions that are too broad generally have the opposite effect to what was
intended and, as a result, it is no longer possible to enforce a decision or a law.
Under the Conservatives, we have become accustomed to this sort of thing, whether it was with
Bill C-10, which criminalizes the possession of more than six marijuana plants, or with Bill C-36,
which criminalizes the purchase of sexual services. The consequence is that the tougher the
criminal sentences we impose through these laws, the less viable it becomes to implement them,
and therefore the police are much less likely to enforce them.”

“I’ve also had comments from people that find people like Stephen Harper and Peter
MacKay hopelessly out of touch with near-toxic levels of sanctimony and more
interested in attacking someone’s character than actually listening to reason.”
...
As for himself, Brison said he too has smoked pot in the past and “I did inhale.” But
he said, “it’s been a very long time” — indeed, before he became an MP in 1997 —
since he last toked up.

announced only one concrete policy he has for Canada, his plan to legalize marijuana.
...
We are opening the market for 500 million new consumers. While we have been
focused on the economy and opening those markets, the Liberal leader has been
focused on legalizing street drugs. His plan will make drugs easily available to our

Our Prime Minister will keep illegal drugs off the streets. Clearly, the leader of the

Longtime Liberal Humber-St. Barbe-Baie Verte MP Gerry Byrne is not in favour of legalizing it, though he
acknowledges people from all walks of life smoke the stuff.
"I am in favour of decriminalizing possession of amounts less than that intended for the purposes of
trafficking," he said.
"There is a very real difference in decriminalizing versus legalization. Speeding is not a criminal offence, but it
is certainly not legal. Reckless driving, on the other hand, with its potential to cause bodily harm, is a criminal
offence," he said.
"I believe imposing mandatory minimum sentences of six months in prison for growing six marijuana plants will
simply make hardened criminals out of otherwise peaceful, non-violent citizens. Jails have been termed by many
corrections experts as 'crime colleges,' where people who would otherwise not be exposed to violent criminal
elements and habits - and to addiction risk from drugs within the prison system - are suddenly cast into such
situations for months on end. This can only and will only ever lead to a bad result."

"It's very difficult for the police to find out where the
medicinal marijuana grow-ops are," said Cannan, Conservative
MP for Kelowna-Lake Country. "There should be better co-
ordination between the RCMP and health authorities."
After meeting with a number of community leaders and
representatives of social service agencies on Wednesday,
Cannan said he'd like to see current rules changed so no legal
grow-ops could be maintained in residential areas.

New changes to federal medical marijuana regulations is
making one local politician very happy. Oshawa MP Colin
Carrie says the changes had to be made to better protect
people that need the drug, as well as public safety. He says
users will no longer be allowed to grow pot at home, they will
now be permitted to buy prescribed amounts only from
licensed growers. Health Canada says since the medical
marijuana program was introduced in 2001 with 500
authorized users, it has expanded to 30,000.

"It's very easy for young people to get their hands on
marijuana now," he said. "Let's go at the source. Let's get it
out of the hands of the gangs and organized crime, tax and
regulate it, so it's not going to be as easy, so we do have some
control over access. Quite clearly what's happening now isn't
working and we believe that this will, that this is the way to
protect our young people."
