Are you in favor of decriminalizing drug use?

yes it should be allowed if prescribed medically like marijuana and people serving time for it or has it on there record should have that removed

I want the illegal use of drugs to be stopped and have harsher punishments for drug dealers but also allow the pharmacy's to use drugs to help people with addictions.

No but we should pay mroe attention on people who suffer with drug addiction, it will have a positive impact on the economy

Drugs are good and a good business and the persecution of their usage and sale has been primarily a racist and oppressive one

Yes, but in a sense that can benefit us in a medical view. For example, microdosing psilocybin has been said to assist with a deal of depression, anxiety, migraines and other negative effects on the human body.

If used and controlled for medical purposes, I am for it.

Yes, where it can be reasonably determined that the risk of those drugs is comparable to alcohol and cannabis.

Yes we should decriminalize all drugs. But we need 100% rehabilitation support for drug users. Like Amsterdam.

Yes, but with tougher laws for in public use, and mandatory rehab/imprisonment for crimes related to drugs and intense addiction.

Yes, but only if the user is in a drug rehabilitation program that has S.M.A.R.T. milestone progression.

Some drugs, yes. Perhaps even manage them like they do in weed shops..so people know what they’re consuming. And also make the penalty for selling certain high risk/laced/“dirty” drugs extremely tough. People caught with those drugs should be given the option of jail time or rehabilitation programs.

Yes, but also actively discourage drug use and implement policies to help addicts recover

Yes, drug use should be treated as a medical/social issue and not a criminal issue

We should provide funding for more help. More resources to provide SAFE drug use

Drug use shouldn’t be criminalised, but being under the influence in public should be illegal, and crimes committed under drug influence should be more severely punished

Yes decriminalizing those with addictions, harsher punishment for drug dealers

It depends on the type of drug and what it can do to someone

I think drugs should be decriminalized but anyone caught should be helped and go to rehab/get help getting their life back on track

Yes, excess use money from police and jailing for drug education and for therapy. Drug users will get drugs regardless. So help them with the problem.

Yes, for those who use as a result of a substance use disorder. Also increase punishment for drug traffickers.

I personally believe that people who have an addiction to illegal drugs shouldn't go to jail but instead be given help to overcome said addiction.

Drug users that cannot contribute to society should be put into institutions where they are forcibly rehabilitated

yes we can, but those people must know how to control themselves and someone must be monitoring their consumption.

yes to all but government need to provide more social worker and health professionals and meet with all users like they do in Portugal. Letting anyone uses drugs with no support is not the way to go... right? the liberals???

Yes, decriminalize use and increase funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation but criminalize selling of drugs

My dad's a chainsmoker so yes but it is also difficult seeing someone slowly end their life through abusing addictive substances

Yes. I also think there should be voluntary treatment facilities with nurse practitioners where addicts can check in and have as much access to their drug of choice (draw them in) in a safe and secure environment at no cost (reduce crime and harm). I think the facility should have beds, showers, and bathrooms, and nutritious meals, but their commitment is to meet with a psychotherapists on staff to help them work through their trauma and provide recovery assistance in a safe environment where they are treated with dignity.

If we are to decriminalize drug use we must deepen our Mental Health outreach equally ... starting in elementary schools ... we need to control the flow.

yes, but only in combination with the creation of more safe injection/inhalation sites, and treatment centres

yes, only decriminalizing small amounts of drugs so cops can focus on begger issues like big time dealers and other larger crimes

Yes, if we take the same approach as other countries who have done the same and make it only decriminalized if they’re attending a rehabilitation facility of some sort as well.

The only drug im okay with is marijuana that is the only beneficial drug out there that people enjoy and use for medical reasons

No, but allow funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation and pass more strict laws on the use of selling or possessing of illegal drugs.

Yes, but we need to do more towards the mental health side of drug abuse and include involuntary treatment.

Drug use shouldn't be punished they should be treated, these are people with addictions, not criminals.

No, but allow law enforcement/military to go after those responsible for the root causes of the drug issue(high level dealers, foreign manufacturers, & politically connected interests that profit from it like the medical industry)

Allow any and all drug use; but, any person found to have any drug in their system equals no public help whatsoever. Let them live or die by their choice and it should not cost the public a single dime.

I think we should decriminalize magic mushrooms. it has a numerous amount of benefits for the mind and body, and is even said to expand creativity and cure anxiety and depression.

Yes AND increase funding to mental health/rehabilitation

Yes, but needs to be done in tandem with increases in funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation

Most but not all drugs because we should pass tougher law and increase punishment for drug dealers and retroactively reduce sentences for drug related crimes and increase funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation

Some drugs that are used in medicine should be legalized in acceptable doses like how the most amount of weed you can have on your person is an ounce. You can use people IDs to scan them so they can only get a certain dose weekly/daily

A drug or narcotic that is going to make you hallucinate or act out of the ordinary should not be illegal. Marijuana will not make you hallucinate and think you can fly or jump off a building. Mushrooms will.

I think that it is important to decriminalize drugs that offer health benefits such as marijuana. But It is important to increase punishment for drug dealers, there should be funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation.

No, but decriminalize drugs that offer medicinal benefits, but increase the price of those drugs, so they're harder to reach so people won't resort to that and become addicted.

Legalize recreational drugs and regulate the production and sale of recreational drugs. Decriminalize hard drug use but ban the production and sale of hard drugs. Crack down on illegal drug dealers.

Yes, but not for all drugs. There should be a screening to decide which drugs can be offered recreationally, and which ones are too dangerous. There should also be proper addiction support and rehabilitation programs in place. And tight regulation on maintaining, producing, and distributing these drugs, which are run by the government.

Some more drugs, but not all, I seen places where people are allowed all drugs and the city was trash, but I feel like some more drugs should be legal

id say that they should take away the drugs people are using to get away from the world but like marjawana isn't as bad as people say.

Involuntary confinement via a medical tribunal for those who cannot care for themselves and are a risk to others.

People should not be able to buy hard drugs for recreational use. Instead the people who are buying illegally should have less punishment and be rehabilitated to a place where they can work through the addiction. Because addiction is a disease and takes over you. Narcan kits should also be provided more often than not to prevent those who are overdosing from a overdose

Yes, but those who are found using drugs are forced to receive rehabilitation or otherwise go to prison.

Neutral, certain drugs should not be of use and proper education on drugs so a person can decide for themselves if they want to take marijuana as long as it does not hurt themselves or others

Drug use should have minor concequences but all drugs (excluding for medical purposes) should be banned.

Yes, but increase funding for addiction prevention and rehab, while also adding more Safe Drug Injection Sites, making them more readily available.

Yes, for non-hard drugs but anyone caught in possession with these drugs should be enrolled in mandatory rehabilitation programs.

Yes, but those caught in possession of hard drugs should be sent to mandatory rehabilitation centres. Also, increase punishment for drug dealers.

Decriminalising drugs and not drug use as we should prosecute the drug dealers and the drug itself not the people using and they shouldn’t be imprisoned for drug use.

No, but it's common knowledge that some drugs help if you're smart enough to use them right for recreational needs or by the package.

yes but only if it is prescripted by a doctor or you have an addiction and you have proven you will try to quit.

Increase punishment for dealers, and instead of punishing users divest that money into programs that offer recovery.

Yes, so there can be safer places for people to get drugs which may decrease the chance of overdose. But also not drugs that are incredibly dangerous (eg. fentanyl) More drug education.

Decriminalize it so there are safer spaces for people who decide to take drugs. But make distribution of extremely dangerous drugs like fentanyl illegal.

Yes, for the ones least harmful to a person, but pass harsher laws on drug dealers forcing people to get them from licensed government businesses

Yes, but decriminalize possession of drugs for personal usage, & use the money saved to go after the suppliers & traffickers.

I belive some drugs should be legalized because they can be used for medical use or for stress use (aka weed,shrooms) leagizing these drugs woukld help lower crime rate .

I think instead of arresting people who are struggling with drug use, we should arrest the dealer and get the person who is using drugs help.

Rehabilitation and addiction prevention services should be allocated more funding while simultaneously decreasing harsh penalties for drug crimes. And drugs that offer medicinal benefits should be made available more easily once they have been thoroughly tested for those who can prove they need them

Yes, but teach responsible use, side effects, and level / chance of addiction. Also increase funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation.

No we should build more rehab centres instead of giving people free drugs and making it easier to get clean

Excluding Marijuana as it is legal. Drugs should not be decriminalized, and harsher punishments for drug users and dealers should be put into place up to and including life in prison or the death penalty for severe repeat offenders.

No, I strongly disagree with the legalisation of addictive drugs, I have seen many teens of around my age have their lives completely ruined because of drugs, either because their parents are addicts and do not care about them or that they get addicted and destory themselves from the inside out

Make a red light district and regulate it less health care visits and death will take the bad cons out

No, we should build facilities for forced treatment of drug addicts, especially for fentanyl, heroin, and methamphetamine addicts. We should also bring back the death penalty and execute convicted drug dealers like they do in Thailand, China, and Singapore.

some but not all drugs and there should be drug awarness programs and such in schools and other places

Yes, but ensure there is proper rehabilitation centres and encourage people to visit them if they are addicted.

Yes because the people buying the drugs shouldn't be punished the people dealing them should be punished

No, but decriminalize drugs that offer medicinal benefits. However, they are to be kept in safe hands so as to not be abused

Drugs can be used for a various type of reasons but that does not mean I am not against them, it is true that drugs can mess you up pretty badly and I guess I cannot say that there is no "good drug" but if we were to talk about marijuana for say, that specific drug can be used for both good and many bad. The only reason why the drug was legalized is because it could be used medically but unfortunately the drug has been used for worst reasons. If we were to talk about other drugs like life threatening ones (only if taken as an overdose) such as: Fentanyl or Heroin, specific drugs like them should be only be permitted to the EMS or any other (professional) medical services.

only for drugs that dont impose a high addiction risk or really bad health risks, recianial weed for example i find okay but something like in Vancouver i find is not a good idea and eventually leads to more problems

People are going to use drugs either way instead we should have places where they can do it and be monitored and not using the same needles to prevent contamination and speadring of viruses.

People are going to do drugs either way but offer medical suport to those who are trying to get sober or live a better life, like rehabilitation centers.

Make drugs illegal, but slowly make more and more legal with the proper services for those that want to use and get off of drugs

no, i dont think we should decrriminalizating drug use but allow people who need it bad for there health

Yes, drugs must be prohibited because of its harmful consequences. Drugs Only using for medical purpose

It can do good, but there has to be the infrastructure there to make sure that it's a success, such as treatment and transitional housing, but also safe injection sites and ways to deal with repeat offenders.

I am but there needs to be stricter and safer rules on where they can be used and how people can get it.

No, but if it provides medical benefit and for research purposes, it should be allowed only to the professionals not the public.

Instead of criminalising drugs we should invest in addiction treatment centres to help reduce addiction rates, and then we can take steps taken by New Zealand and UK to erradicate the production of recreational drugs except for medicinal drugs or prevent people born in a certain year onwards from buying drugs.

Yes, but profits from the purchase of drugs should be directed entirely toward addiction prevention and rehabilitation

we should let people do what they want, and if that involves drug use so be it thats them its not effecting me personaly

yes but only one ones that are less harmful. like weed and lsd and mushrooms but not drugs that make people pass out or die.

For any drugs besides weed weed should be 100% legal and we should raise penalties for all other drugs

I think that if they want to kill te selves by using drugs that up to them but i dont think it matters

I don't really like to descriminate, but I don't think drugs are really a good thing unless their nessesary.

Depending on the drug and it’s effects some drugs can be decriminalized though we should still have more funding for addiction preventions and rehabilitation.

Yes, however we should still be arresting dealers and getting psychological and medical help for users

I feel it should be legalised and produced at a government standard because having it illegal Supports crime and violence But it happens any way

yes but for the people who seriously need the dug it should be available but then again they coulg get addicted and do whatever they can to get some more

No. I think we are going about this all wrong. We have increased the need for addiction and rehab, what we need to do is nip things in the bud...more needs to be done to get illegal drugs out of the country. Stricter scrutiny at ports, airports anywhere goods are coming into the country to squash the sale of these drugs on the street. Producers of drugs internally need to be harder hit, not the poor saps, the users at the end of the equation. More needs to be done at the beginning of this cycle and not the tail end.
