    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Uruguay was the first country to legalise the use of cannabis sativa in 2013. There are not many countries. In fact, even in the United States of America (USA), the debate is still on in many of the states. In Canada, they are likely to look at it this year. It is only Netherlands and a few countries. The objective was that it would eliminate illegal trade in cannabis sativa. That has not happened. Even in those countries where they have allowed it for medicinal use, it has not, in any way reduced the illegal consumption. Certainly, we are a country where our youths are having crisis even with the basic tobacco so that Parliament has to legislate extensively on its use. Forget about many other problems we are having. I agree with what my colleagues said earlier; that, the petitioner clearly seems to have some other agenda for pushing for this thing. It is not about medicinal use. We have not seen this even in the developed world. The USA is the most developed country and cancer kills over a quarter million people annually. If this thing was in fact, being used, they would not be outlawing it in many of the states."
