Sadly, Madam Chair, I have to say again that the stigmatized language from the other side of the House is highly disturbing. Decriminalization is one tool of many in addressing the overdose crisis. It exists in jurisdictions around the world, such as Switzerland, Portugal and Spain, and we know it is an important tool that we need to use. I really wish the member would look at the evidence and the facts rather than use rhetoric.
