Chair, I wonder if I could indulge Mr. Davies. As I said, it's a great sound argument, but why wouldn't you go all the way? Why wouldn't you just say that we need to remove all sentencing except, perhaps, in the case of trafficking? If you take this argument to its logical conclusion, and if marijuana should be something that should be freely accessible in society, and if people are adults and they choose to use it, why would we...? I mean that with all sincerity. Could you maybe explain to me why we have any sentencing, or any prison time, or a fine at all?
