Joël Lightbound Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Health, speaking on May 30th in the C-45 debate on legalising cannabis in Canada:
“According to Statistics Canada, even though cannabis is illegal, 12% of Canadians have used it over the past year. A more recent CBC survey showed that the real number was 17%.”
...."up to 20% of young Canadians under the age of 18 report that they have smoked, that is among the highest rates in the world. For youth 18 to 25, it is 30%. ... criminal organizations generate profits estimated to be $7 billion a year through the sale of cannabis..."
