Okanagan—Shuswap (British Columbia) 
“Then the thought came to me: why would any political 
party want to legalize marijuana, which would only 
destroy children's lives and families? Is it not the 
duty of government to protect the health and safety 
of its citizens? 
I said a little prayer while I stood at the poolside. I 
petitioned that our grandchildren would never live 
under a government that would legalize marijuana.”

"Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to add my voice to the rising opposition to Bill C-10, which 
is perhaps best characterized as the Conservatives' most recent piece of dumb on 
crime legislation." 
“Second, in my opinion, six plants is not a huge number. In more general terms, we are 
opposed to the principle of mandatory minimum sentences.” 
“Mr. Speaker, I do not accept this principle that the Conservatives have a monopoly on 
caring about victims. Our view is that this bill would create more victims because when 
we send young people into jail they learn to become criminals and when they get out 
they are more likely to reoffend."

"Also last week, the Liberal leader said that his priority was 
to make it easier to possess and use an illegal drug, 
marijuana. 
His justice spokesperson echoed those sentiments: hiking 
taxes on job creators, lowering the EI qualifying period to 
45 days which will increase payroll taxes, increasing the 
GST back to 7% and billions in reckless spending, plus the 
Liberal leader's iPod tax. The census and marijuana. It 
seems like everything is a priority for the Liberal leader 
except the economy."

Scarborough—Guildwood (Ontario) 
“..No, virgin nostrils. I thought it was a stupid idea in 70s, it hasn't 
improved in the 80s and it has got really stupid in 90s and now it's 
downright dangerous. It wasn't even a temptation. 
... I agree with Anne McLellan that there is no study in the world that 
shows that marijuana has any medicinal benefits. Would you ever put 
any drug on the market untested readily available from dealers on 
street corners and say, "oh, well, this has got medicinal benefits." You'd 
be run out of town and rightfully so. So, I don't buy the argument that 
this has medicinal benefits, it may have psychological benefits. ...”

Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo (British Columbia) 
She said her Conservative government is 
concentrating on changing its policies on medical 
marijuana, to have the drug grown by 
government contractors instead of individual 
users. McLeod said a more relaxed drug policy 
for non-medical users isn't on the table.

“The risks of using illegal drugs, including marijuana or cannabis, are far-reaching 
and can have serious consequences on the health and future of young 
people,” said MP Menegakis. “The evidence showing that the use of cannabis 
early in adolescence, while the brain is still developing, may lead to more 
lasting, irreparable problems is particularly alarming. Our government has no 
tolerance for the production and trafficking of illicit drugs and I am proud of 
our landmark crime legislation, The Safe Streets and Communities Act that 
was enacted to address the serious problem of organized drug crime.” “In 
contrast, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau advocates for the legalization of 
marijuana and for making it more easily available to youth,” said MP Menegakis. 
“The simple fact is that marijuana is illegal because of the serious 
consequences on its users and on society. While our government is focused on 
providing law enforcement the tools they need to keep our communities safe, 
Mr. Trudeau is undermining the important work of our police services with his 
ill-thought out comments. Clearly, Mr. Trudeau is just in over his head.”

Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier (Quebec) 
The Conservatives are constantly boasting about the 
importance they attach to law and order in Canada and about 
the fact that they are prepared to put Canadians in jail for 
years just because of a few marijuana plants. However, they 
refuse to do anything to create obstacles for big drug 
traffickers. It is really impossible to understand this 
government.

"My next question is in regard to the sweeping changes proposed in the marijuana 
for medical purposes regulations. Through these new regulations, medical marijuana 
users will be forced to access medical marijuana through expensive commercial 
growers. Your own department has submitted that a new cost will be $8.80 per 
gram, up from its current rate of $1.80 per gram. Many medical marijuana patients 
grow their own supplies or buy medical marijuana from the local compassion clubs 
because they are on a limited income due to their illness, or because they have a 
disability that prevents them from having a higher income. Why are medical 
marijuana patients being forced to buy their own supplies from expensive 
commercial growers? How are they expected to afford this medical treatment?"

Part of the bill deals with drugs. I am astonished to see the government 
put forward a bill that would imprison those who abuse drugs or 
marijuana. In my classes, approximately one out of five students had 
access to an addiction specialist who could tell them how to reduce 
their use, what help was available and who could help. This is just one of 
many examples."

“But we also think we shouldn’t put the cart before the horse.” 
While stressing the importance of looking at the product available on the current 
market, Mulcair said social and health concerns need to be investigated before any 
laws are altered. 
“What we smoked when I was younger is oregano compared to what’s on the 
market today,” said Mulcair, when asked if he’s ever smoked marijuana. 
“Yes to the decriminalization of marijuana, but before we go beyond that we need 
to find out all the facts.”

"It could be someone who just made a terrible mistake and who would 
benefit from rehabilitation and who would benefit from perhaps other 
opportunities and could then become a productive and positive member 
of Canada. However, one stupid mistake, and as my colleague has 
indicated, a crime of growing some marijuana plants, could land them in 
this situation. It seems overly harsh and overly discretionary to have 
this kind of consequence for that crime."

“Dear Sam Vekemans: Thank you for your correspondence 
of January 14, 2013, concerning marijuana. Marijuana is a 
psychoactive substance causing alteration of mental and 
physical functions. The use of psychoactive substances 
raises issues of public health and safety, both for the user 
and for those in the broader society affected by the user’s 
conduct. The production and trafficking of illicit drugs is 
the most significant source of money for gangs and 
organized crime. It does profound harm to 
neighbourhoods, where homes are turned into grow-ops and 
crystal meth labs. ...”

Mr. O’Toole said he’d draw the line there. 
He’s opposed to legalization and doesn’t 
want to see the state involved in 
distribution of the drug. “I do not see the 
public good in promoting its use,” he said. 
“I do not want to see a pot aisle at the 
LCBO.”

In more general terms, we are opposed to the principle of mandatory minimum sentences.” “Mr. Speaker, I do not accept this principle that the Conservatives have a monopoly on caring about victims. Our view is that this bill would create more victims because when we send young people into jail they learn to become criminals and when they get out they are more likely to reoffend."

His justice spokesperson echoed those sentiments: hiking taxes on job creators, lowering the EI qualifying period to 45 days which will increase payroll taxes, increasing the GST back to 7% and billions in reckless spending, plus the Liberal leader's iPod tax.

I agree with Anne McLellan that there is no study in the world that shows that marijuana has any medicinal benefits. Would you ever put any drug on the market untested readily available from dealers on street corners and say, "oh, well, this has got medicinal benefits." You'd be run out of town and rightfully so.

  • 9. Richmond Hill (Ontario) “The risks of using illegal drugs, including marijuana or cannabis, are far-reaching and can have serious consequences on the health and future of young people,” said MP Menegakis. “The evidence showing that the use of cannabis early in adolescence, while the brain is still developing, may lead to more lasting, irreparable problems is particularly alarming. Our government has no tolerance for the production and trafficking of illicit drugs and I am proud of our landmark crime legislation, The Safe Streets and Communities Act that was enacted to address the serious problem of organized drug crime.” “In contrast, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau advocates for the legalization of marijuana and for making it more easily available to youth,” said MP Menegakis. “The simple fact is that marijuana is illegal because of the serious consequences on its users and on society. While our government is focused on providing law enforcement the tools they need to keep our communities safe, Mr. Trudeau is undermining the important work of our police services with his ill-thought out comments. Clearly, Mr. Trudeau is just in over his head.” September 20, 2013 - “MP Costas Menegakis congratulates York Regional Police for major illicit drug seizure” costasmenegakis.ca http://www.costasmenegakis.ca/media_/riding-news/mp-costas-menegakis-congratulates-york-regional-police- http://unschedulecannabis.blogspot.ca for-major-illicit-drug-seizure Official Party Stance: Possession and Sales of Marijuana is a Criminal Offense.

  • 10. Portneuf—Jacques-Cartier (Quebec) The Conservatives are constantly boasting about the importance they attach to law and order in Canada and about the fact that they are prepared to put Canadians in jail for years just because of a few marijuana plants. However, they refuse to do anything to create obstacles for big drug traffickers. It is really impossible to understand this government.

  • 15. Chicoutimi—Le Fjord (Quebec) "My next question is in regard to the sweeping changes proposed in the marijuana for medical purposes regulations. Through these new regulations, medical marijuana users will be forced to access medical marijuana through expensive commercial growers. Your own department has submitted that a new cost will be $8.80 per gram, up from its current rate of $1.80 per gram. Many medical marijuana patients grow their own supplies or buy medical marijuana from the local compassion clubs because they are on a limited income due to their illness, or because they have a disability that prevents them from having a higher income. Why are medical marijuana patients being forced to buy their own supplies from expensive commercial growers? How are they expected to afford this medical treatment?"
