Will the move stop this?
"Council agreed unanimously during a meeting on Monday, April 25 to support Johns’ Private Member’s Bill C-216. If passed, the bill would decriminalize personal possession of illegal drugs, expunge criminal convictions for personal possession of drugs and expand access to safe supplies, treatment, harm reduction and recovery sites."

British Columbia applied in November 2021 to decriminalize drugs.
"Decriminalization has also been endorsed by law enforcement, including the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police."
Would the move do away with this?
or this?
Canada lead the way in North America in legalizing marijuana with several of our states seeing the light and joining them. Unfortunately our federal government won't pass a national bill, possibly never will given the dysfunctional Congress.
It must be possible for one province to approve the legalization given British Columbia's application.
The support of Canadian police will make a huge difference in the movement.
