Thank you for the question.
Thank you for the interpretation.
I know that a lot of people say, “The war on drugs is a failure”, and so on, but what would you rather have? Would you like organized crime to make its home here in Canada? We already have enough organized crime groups here.
There has to be an enforcement component that goes along with treatment and prevention. If you choose not to have an enforcement component and allow organized crime to do what it wants in your country, then you have something called “state capture”. You won't have a country. There are many examples of that in other parts of the world, where organized crime essentially runs the country. That's not an option, from my perspective. We have to deal with it.
We also have to deal with treatment. We also have to deal with prevention.
