"There's no such thing as the safe use of illicit drugs, including marijuana. When illicit drugs are legalized, drug use increases."
? Sgt. Dale Orban, director of the Regina Police Association, May 28, 2001
In May 2003, federal Health Minister Anne McLellan said that if Canada decriminalized the possession of small amounts of marijuana, use of the drug would likely increase, at least in the short term, as it has in other countries that have decriminalized.
