“Addiction can happen to any young person, and our laws and budgets should reflect that. I want to know if the member agrees.”
“Mr. Speaker, as I have indicated to the member across the way, I applaud him and give him a tremendous amount of credit for having the courage to present his personal family situation. It takes a great deal of courage to do so. I think it is a great tribute to David, quite frankly, in recognizing that all lives do matter. I want to go back to the issue of the principle, because I think that is critically important here. This can happen to anyone. Young people can cross a road, and it can be very difficult as a direct result. This why it is important that, as legislators, we take that into consideration when we talk about the Criminal Code or budgetary measures. Could the member provide his thoughts on that?”
