Neil R. Ellis, Liberal Member of Parliament for 35006 Bay of Quinte (Ontario)
"
Ellis said his party would legalize marijuana and control it as it would create money taken from crime.
“$600 million is spent on locking up people that have been in possession of small amounts of marijuana. We need to look at the United States, it creates jobs, has not caused crime rates to rise and created taxation for the government.”
