Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'll ask some questions with respect to the opioid epidemic as well, since we're on that subject, for anybody who would like to answer.
There's some fairly incontrovertible evidence that states that we need to treat this epidemic as a health care issue rather than a criminal one, and that the criminality of the drug is actually responsible for more deaths than the lethality of it. Would anybody like to comment on the efficacious nature of decriminalization in other jurisdictions as it applies to saving the lives of people who use substances habitually?
