Mr. Chair, I find some merit in what Mr. Davies says, but we were also advised by the jurisdictions that legalized it to take it slowly, take this very slowly, not to go too far or do too much too soon. In regard to an earlier comment about how we had campaigned on legalizing, we campaigned on legalizing and strictly regulating. That was part of it. We didn't just say the word “legalizing”.
One of the things we want to get a hold of is the problem right now of trafficking. We have to set some limit on what the difference is between the amount you'd have for personal use and what might be considered for trafficking. This may be reviewed, if this amount is causing problems in the future, but again, this is the amount advised by the jurisdictions that have legalized it.
Therefore, I'll be opposing this motion.
