‘Insanity’: Poilievre says of drug use in hospitals, releases plan to deal with decriminalization
PRINCE GEORGE — It was April 26 when the provincial government announced that they would ban drug use in all public places in a major overhaul of decriminalization. The government made a formal request to Health Canada to change the exemption under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, and Health Canada has granted that request.
However, in an exclusive interview to CKPG News with federal Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, he says that Ottawa isn’t doing enough.
“Basically, the NDP/Liberals, decriminalized hard drugs and therefore, the hospital system sent out a memo saying that nurses and doctors had to allow people to smoke meth, crack and shoot up heroin in hospital rooms.” – Pierre Poilievre, Leader of the Official Opposition (Conservative)
