Supports decriminalization (link no longer available) - status back to unknown
Posted 09 January 2006 - 04:22 PM
An interview with Hamilton Centre NDP MP David Christopherson
Q- Matt Jelly, Mayday Magazine
A- David Christopherson, NDP MP
Q- What priority does the NDP give to the legalization of marijuana?
A- The federal NDP has long advocated for the decriminalization of marijuana. We are the only part that actually has a resolution and a policy for decriminalization. And, in advocating that position, we understand that we need a drug policy that does not primarily rely only on our legal system. We want Canada to build a workable policy on marijuana that recognizes the faliure of criminalizing people for their personal use.
Q- What kind of legislative measures does the NDP endorse to create a "leagal environment" for cannabis use and cultivation as described by Jack Layton?
A- The NDP continues to push the federal government to take steps to move marijuana out of the criminal legal framework, and eliminate punitive measures for responsible adult marijuana use. We believe that we must move forward to a discussion on the best system of rules based on public health education. This includes establishing guidelines about age and impared driving and rules to tackle commercial grow-ops.

re: Does David Christopherson support the removal of cannabis as a schedule II controlled substance from the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (S.C. 1996, c. 19)?
Dear David Christopherson,
Do you support the simple removal of cannabis as a schedule II controlled substance from the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (S.C. 1996, c. 19)?, and let it be treated the same as Lettuce, Tomato, Oregano, Roses, Aloe Vera, Fern or any other common garden herb, flower or house plant?
Do you know the difference between Cannabis Sativa, Cannabis Indica, and Cannabis Ruderalis?
I look forward to receiving your responses as it will be made public, so then others wont need to ask you the same question.
Kind regards,
Sam Vekemans (address)
P.S. All 307 Members of Parliament are being asked these same questions.
