You probably meant to compliment Clayton, who has been admirably citing peer-reviewed research to support his assertions. Kudos to you too.

Drug policy is multidisciplinary.  Getting advice on how to regulate cannabis from mental health experts is like getting mental health advice from economists and criminologists. We can't craft optimal cannabis policies by looking at MRI scans.

Yes, the parliamentary debates have been depressing. It's clear that the CPC MPs have not read C-45, or the task force report, or the report of the Senate Special Committee on Illegal Drugs, or the Le Dain report, all of which should be required reading for legislators crafting cannabis regulations. #toasterbud
