Thank you to all my colleagues.
Essentially what I want to do is propose an amendment to the bill at proposed new subsection 4.1(2).
I'm going to preface my comments by congratulating Mr. McKinnon and thanking him for bringing this important bill to Parliament's attention. As I said before, I will support it in any event.
My amendment would be to broaden the exemption in 4.1(2), to exempt people at the scene of a drug overdose not only from being charged with possession but from being charged for any violation of pretrial release, probation, furlough, or parole related to a drug offence.
As soon as people have internalized that, I'll speak to that.
