Thank you.
We know that the expert task force came back with some unanimous recommendations, and it was chaired by Mike Serr, the former president of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police. Their recommendations were unequivocally unanimous and supported stopping the criminalization of people who use substances; providing a safer supply of substances to people who use substances and require them; and scaling up prevention, education and treatment on demand. Those are all policies that are very similar to what Portugal did.
Right now we're hearing this campaign about diversion as the dominant factor for driving the toxic drug crisis. Do you believe that diversion, in terms of the conversation around the diversion of safer supply substances, is actually causing more harm by slowing down the pace of addressing the real root causes and problems and of our responding to this drug crisis?
Ms. Wilson, I'll let you start.
