Time flies, Mr. Chair. I will conclude my remarks, but I will be pleased to provide additional details in answering questions from members.
My message is to ask you to consider the complexity of the issue and to respect each individual's journey. It often seems that people want to solve a problem by giving individuals a predetermined timeframe, but it is very important to respect each person's path to rehabilitation. We have to remember that not everyone who uses drugs has problems.
It is fairly simple to work towards harm reduction by facilitating access to substance analysis. In my view, the problem is that people don't know what they are taking, and they experience the effects of toxicity and contamination, which increase the risk of overdose. Facilitating access to substance analysis could be a step in the right direction.
I will stop here, but I look forward to the members' questions.
