Mr. Chairman, I'll take this opportunity to say that there's a study that's just been released by the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction that we would highly commend to the committee. We'll be happy to provide it to you. The title is “Collisions Attributable to Cannabis: Estimating the Harms and Costs in the Canadian Provinces”. The top line of the report indicates that cannabis-related collisions right now, in terms of death, injuries, and property damage, are amounting to about $1 billion a year. This is a study that has just been released. It's the first, that we're aware of, in Canada. We highly commend it to the committee.
