@Catherine L\u00e9tourneau, 2017<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Le 17 mai dernier, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 f\u00e9d\u00e9ral de Montmagny\u2014L\u2019Islet\u2014 Kamoruaska\u2014Rivi\u00e8re-du-Loup Bernard G\u00e9n\u00e9reux a mandat\u00e9 la firme StratComTendances Inc. pour ex\u00e9cuter un sondage t\u00e9l\u00e9phonique aupr\u00e8s des citoyens de la circonscription afin de conna\u00eetre leur point de vue face \u00e0 la l\u00e9galisation du cannabis par le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral le 1e<\/sup> juillet 2018.<\/p>\n

2\u00a0575 personnes ont r\u00e9pondu au sondage. Apr\u00e8s le retrait des ind\u00e9cis, 81,75% se sont dit en d\u00e9faveur et 18,25% en faveur.\u00a0La question pos\u00e9e \u00e9tait la suivante\u00a0: Quelle est votre opinion concernant le projet de loi de Justin Trudeau qui consiste \u00e0 l\u00e9galiser la consommation de cannabis \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle canadienne\u00a0?<\/p>\n

De plus, M. G\u00e9n\u00e9reux a demand\u00e9, durant le mois de mai, aux internautes fr\u00e9quentant son site internet www.bernardgenereux.ca<\/a> de se prononcer sur cet enjeu et 90 des 105 personnes qui y ont r\u00e9pondu au sondage, se sont dites en d\u00e9faveur.<\/p>\n

Finalement, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a fait parvenir une correspondance par la poste aux citoyens et, selon les derniers chiffres cumul\u00e9s en date d\u2019aujourd\u2019hui, 11 sont en faveur contre 125 en d\u00e9faveur. Les raisons invoqu\u00e9es sont principalement les impacts sur la sant\u00e9, la crainte de la banalisation de la consommation et la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 sur les routes.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0Le message est clair, les citoyens de la circonscription sont en majorit\u00e9 contre la l\u00e9galisation du cannabis. Alors que le gouvernement se targue de \u00ab\u00a0prot\u00e9ger\u00a0\u00bb la jeunesse, il pose un geste en totale contradiction. Pourquoi mettre les jeunes enfants en contact avec des plans de cannabis (jusqu\u2019\u00e0 quatre) \u00e0 la maison. C\u2019est tout simplement insens\u00e9\u00a0\u00bb temp\u00eate M. G\u00e9n\u00e9reux.<\/p>\n

Bien reconnaissant que des changements puissent \u00eatre apport\u00e9s \u00e0 la loi actuelle, M. G\u00e9n\u00e9reux est de l\u2019avis qu\u2019une forme de d\u00e9criminalisation soit plus souhaitable que la l\u00e9galisation compl\u00e8te propos\u00e9e par le projet de loi C-45. Il fait remarquer que l\u2019article 108 de l\u2019\u00e9nonc\u00e9 des politiques du Parti conservateur du Canada recommande \u00ab\u00a0que les agents de la paix puissent \u00e9mettre des contraventions pour la possession simple de faibles quantit\u00e9s de marijuana.\u00a0\u00bb \u00ab\u00a0Cela emp\u00eacherait les jeunes de se retrouver avec des casiers judiciaires, mais les sensibiliserait tout de m\u00eame aux dangers de cette drogue\u00a0\u00bb soutient-il.[:en]

@Catherine L\u00e9tourneau, 2017<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

On May 17, the federal MP for Montmagny\u2014L\u2019Islet\u2014 Kamouraska\u2014Rivi\u00e8re-du-Loup, Bernard G\u00e9n\u00e9reux, commissioned StratComTendances Inc. to conduct a telephone survey of constituency residents on the federal government\u2019s legalization of cannabis on July 1, 2018.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A total of 2,575 people responded to the survey. With undecided respondents excluded, 81.75% were against, and 18.25% were in favour.\u00a0Respondents were asked the following question: What is your opinion on Justin Trudeau\u2019s bill legalizing the use of cannabis across Canada?<\/p>\n

In May, Mr. G\u00e9n\u00e9reux also asked visitors to his website, www.bernardgenereux.ca<\/a>, for their views on this issue, and 90 of the 105 people who responded said they were against.<\/p>\n

In addition, the MP sent residents a survey by mail, and the results so far are 11 for and 125 against. The reasons cited are mainly the health effects, fear that cannabis use will become widespread, and road safety.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe message is clear: most residents of the constituency are against the legalization of cannabis. While the government boasts that it is \u2018protecting\u2019 young people, its actions are doing exactly the opposite. Why are we exposing young children to cannabis plants (up to four) at home? It\u2019s just senseless,\u201d laments Mr. G\u00e9n\u00e9reux.<\/p>\n

Mr. G\u00e9n\u00e9reux is aware that changes may be made in the current legislation, but he believes that a form of decriminalization is more desirable than the complete legalization proposed in Bill C-45. He points out that in section 108 of its Policy Declaration, the Conservative Party of Canada recommends \u201cthat peace officers can issue tickets for the simple possession of small amounts of marijuana.\u201d \u201cThis would ensure that young people do not end up with criminal records, but it would make them more aware of the drug\u2019s dangers,\u201d he said.[:]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
