Thank you for your comment. It certainly is the hard way, but when you're in a federal facility, you are prevented from getting alcohol, so already this is a form of treatment, I would say. I strongly believe that rehabilitation programs are important. I've said today that I feel we certainly need to be more efficient in the way we are doing it. I visited a facility in my area, a detox centre, where recidivists or former prisoners have been benefiting from federal programs.
I want to insist that this bill, although not perfect, will bring great relief to the issue we're dealing with. In the past, there was a motion brought that Canada was a distinct society. We ended up saying that Canada was a distinct society within a united Canada. It was brought by the Bloc Québécois, but we, the government, the Conservatives and Stephen Harper, got the credit for it. Feel free to support my bill. You will get all the credit, and nobody will remember that I was the sponsor of it.
