" ...
This is where I get into
my background of working with youth at risk and other persons who have
disabilities, where stigmas are evolved or are created on a person and
there are consequential effects. For example, if individuals have that
on their record, it affects them in going for a job, in education, in
their neighbourhood, with applications for credit or for any type of
assistance, if it has to be disclosed. Those individuals are living with
this cloud over top of them.
I see it on a regular
basis, even in my home riding, where I have a good example with regard
to a stigma staying left over. I have a Ford truck driver who smoked
marijuana, got caught and has a federal conviction, so every time he
goes into the United States, he is rightly pulled over because he has a
record, but sometimes he is made to sit there for four or five hours. We
have to intervene and say the authorities should pull him over and go
through the vehicle and do all the inspections and enforcement they want
to do, but the just-in-time delivery that the person is doing right
there is important for both of our economies. He has to live with that
type of stigma and that type of potential every single time he crosses
the border. It is his own fault
and he has to pay for it, but the
reality is that there is a consequence.
