    His position is in the public record:

    "Though the leader of the Canadian Alliance Party, Stephen Harper, objected to the Prime Minister's position on Iraq, stating that Canada should be fighting alongside the US"

      "As Canada continues to battle an opioid epidemic, the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police is calling on federal lawmakers to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of illegal drugs for personal consumption.

      CACP's president, Chief Const. Adam Palmer, said it's time to rethink how police and governments approach the use and abuse of illegal drugs in order to save lives.

      "Arresting individuals for simple possession of illicit drugs has proven to be ineffective. It does not save lives," Palmer said. "The CACP recognizes substance use and addiction as a public health issue. Being addicted to a controlled substance is not a crime and should not be treated as such.

      "We recommend that Canada's enforcement-based approach for possession be replaced with a health-care approach that diverts people from the criminal justice system."

      "In 2018, the CACP tasked a committee with exploring the impacts on public safety and policing of moving toward decriminalization.

      That report, delivered this month, concluded that substance abuse is a public health issue and that taking a public health approach to the problem would lead to lower rates of crime, overdoses and blood-borne diseases."
      Sounds like chucky is advocating to reduce his risk of being charged. LOL.LMAO. HAHAHA

          Drugs is a choice , a personal choice , it should be a personal responsibility, not a society responsibility. Sorry , JMO . No difference than any addiction , it starts a a personal choice , so it should be a personal responsibility

              Just like on a lot of issues many posters seem stuck in the past with very out dated thinking when it comes to drugs.

              When Chiefs of police and many experts are saying that we should treat drug addiction as a health issue and not a criminal justice issue, we know society has moved on from thinking about those with addictions as criminals.

              Do we treat alcoholics as criminals? No we try to help them get off alcohol.

              The fetanyl crisis has been partly driven by the over prescription of pain killers. Are these people criminals?

              Personal choices are important, but many drug addicts are trying to escape abuse and other trauma. Just like the those who escape in a bottle.

              Putting drug addicts in jail has not worked. The solution is education and treatment along with harm reduction.

                Therefore safe injection sites are the lesser of multiple evils......

                Protecting society and the addicts from themselves....

                Somewhat enabling.

                There must he more value in the irony of that situation than the reality of it.
