Thank you.
My colleague, Mr. Webber, introduced Bill C-316, which was agreed to unanimously. We are all following this issue closely. Many of my colleagues and I would like this to be implemented as quickly as possible.
You raised another important topic. There has been an increase of $500,000 for the purpose of education and awareness-raising about the effects of cannabis, following its legalization last October.
How are you going to approach public education on cannabis? It's not about advertizing, but about providing information to young people and their parents Canada-wide. Young people will become adults, and they will be able to consume cannabis, or not. Before consuming cannabis they have to know what it is.
How do you intend to better inform the population on the adverse effects of cannabis, particularly young people of less than 25? It has been shown very clearly that cannabis has deleterious effects on young people. What are the next steps?
