Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, colleagues. Mr. Speaker, we all pay for this problem, some of us directly where it destroys your home, your life, it hurts your family, and all of us indirectly with the community and the problems that the drug trade brings to our locality. We are all aware of the social impacts that await our territory in the coming years that possibly, maybe, the pipeline will be bringing. We have already seen the effects fall onto our street. It is vital that we begin to properly prepare for what is going to take place and effectively deal with this problem that exists right in front of our eyes.
Mr. Speaker, in closing, I see it as quite simple. If we don't start dealing with these problems now, we will certainly catch up with these people later when we are dealing with them through a treatment program in their jail cells. I don't think that is fair to wait until something terrible happens, if it does happen. So, Mr. Speaker, we have the chance and opportunity to act responsibly before anything negative happens. Mr. Speaker, I will have questions for the Minister of Health and Social Services later today. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
