Description[?]:
| (This bill was proposed by the MP for Grin East Adam Young ) Let's face it, the prohibition on drugs doesn't work. Drug is a really importan problem in our society and we must fight it, but simply puting people in jail won't solve the problem. For too long politiciens have used the drug prohibition as a way to avoid addressing the social and economic factors that lead people to use drugs. Poverty and lack of education are at the root of most problematic drug use and it is only by addressing these underlying causes that we can hope to significantly decrease the number of addiction. If we could use all the money that we are puting in law enforcement agaisn't drug and put it in social programs to actually help the drug addicts we would be a hundred time more efficient at solving our drug problem. Being a drug addict is not a crime, it's a disease. And you can't cure someone by throwing him in prison. It's time that we stop the prohibition on drug and that we put in place a real efficient anti-drug policy. |
