December 3, 2013, 6:17 pm - “Balance of power: MP Michael Chong on fixing the relationship between MPs and their leaders (with video)”
By Andrew Coyne - Canada.com
Q. You also propose removing the current requirement for the leader to sign a candidate’s nomination
papers, leaving the final say with the riding association. People have raised the concern that without that vetting by the leadership, you’re opening the way to rogue candidates, people a party would be horrified to have as a candidate.
A. Well, the current system produces those “crackpot” candidates. In the last 10 years, I can recall candidates who were smoking marijuana as they drove their vehicles through the streets of the Lower Mainland in Vancouver. I can recall party candidates that have been smuggling truckloads of booze in their car across the Canada-U.S. border. I can recall neo-Nazi candidates running for parties in northern Quebec. So the current rules don’t prevent these “radical” candidates from presenting themselves to Parliament.
I think that Canadians have the maturity and the judgment to make the decision at the local level as to who is best able to represent them for the party and for Parliament. I trust the people to make the right decisions.

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