Minister, the question is not about harm reduction. It is about decriminalization. Your government continues to criminalize drug possession through the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act., and my final question is on that exemption. It's been four months since the City of Vancouver requested a section 56 exemption, and it's followed by the request from the B.C. government. Every day that we fail to act, people die in this country. It's 10 people a day dying. Why are you taking so long to grant this request?
