My colleagues and I are working very closely with the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Thank you for speaking to the international conventions that we are a signatory to. I'm very aware of the commitments that have been made with respect to those conventions.
We're taking a substantive approach to legalization and strictly regulating cannabis in Canada. We've been very open with our international partners about our approach and certainly are taking a substantive health and safety approach as we move forward with the legalization and strict regulation of cannabis.
That health and safety approach is consistent with the goals and objectives of our international conventions, but we are going to continue to ensure as we proceed that, as the previous health minister did at the United Nations, we are very open with the work we're doing, the purposes of the work we're doing, and the unique and purposeful approach we're taking to this bill, and we are going to continue to ensure that we maintain open and strong communications with our international partners.
