" ..
I have stood in this House for almost six years now and listened to the Conservatives say to Canadians that we have to get tough on crime, we have to hold people accountable, we have to hold people responsible. Young people who may have been caught with a marijuana cigarette when they were 20 years old have been denied, by the government, the right to apply for a pardon. People have committed crimes that have not been serious crimes and that have not created great victims, yet the government says they have to pay a heavier price, that they have to be accountable for their actions.

NDP Member of Parliament Don Davies also took shots at the bill in a recent speech in the house.
"This bill is called the Safe Streets and Communities Act," Davies said. "I think it's more aptly called the Overcrowded Prisons, No Crime Prevention and Overburdened Taxpayers With No Results Act."
He told the House of a recent visit to the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security by former US Drug Enforcement Administration head Asa Hutchinson.
"What he came to tell us was remarkable," Davies said, "that the policies of toughening up sentences and incarcerating more people in United States by pursuing policies like mandatory minimums, lengthening sentences, taking away discretion from judges, reducing sentencing options for judges has resulted in poor outcomes. What he said was that it threatens to bankrupt the treasuries of every state that these policies have been pursued in and they have made no noticeable dent in the crime rate."

re: Does Don Davies support the removal of cannabis as a schedule II controlled substance from the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (S.C. 1996, c. 19)?
Dear Don Davies,
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.
