| Message | This bill is extremely hazardous to the safety of Lourennians. The tobacco industry has always found ways to bypass safety guidelines and has made its product extremely dangerous to the well being of our people. Even our cast health budget would not cover the expenses caused by such a legalization. I thus motion to dismiss the bill. |

| Message | The current government policy on cannabis is that it is legalised yet smoking is prohibited in Lourenne. Surely the government should make their position on this clear to prevent the police interpreting the current law differently. People deserve the freedom to consume what they want as long as it doesn't harm others. Catherine Marchal SDP Leader |

| Message | Do the members of the Senate not also believe the legislation puts forward to completely different versions of the government's policy on smoking? Catherine Marchal SDP Leader |

| Message | OOC: your current policy on smoking prohibits it yet you have legalised smoking cannabis. Could you please clear up the policy? |

| Message | Yes. Cannabis is regulated so that it does not damage health. Plus, surveys have shown that a large majority use it for medical purposes. |
| Date | 16:57:24, July 13, 2016 CET | From | Parti Social-Démocrate (SDP) | To | Debating the Legalisation of Smoking |
| Message | But the current policy on smoking clearly says it's illegal to smoke yet taking cannabis is considered smoking. Catherine Marchal SDP Leader |

| Date | 21:26:36, July 13, 2016 CET | From | La Gauche/Les Verts (LV) | To | Debating the Legalisation of Smoking |
| Message | We don't consider the use of cannabis smoking, as it does not involve the inhalation of tobacco or nicotine. |
| Date | 22:23:03, July 13, 2016 CET | From | Parti Social-Démocrate (SDP) | To | Debating the Legalisation of Smoking |
| Message | I'm sure the majority of people consider cannabis smoking. So is it legal to consume cannabis at work and while driving? Is it completely legal to grow this? Would the government clear up the regulations on this. Catherine Marchal SDP Leader |
