Kellie Leitch Says Marijuana Is a 'Dangerous Drug,' Vows to Undo Liberal Plan to Legalize It

“I don’t think that we should be legalizing this drug; this is a dangerous drug and I don’t want it in the hands of children,” said Conservative leadership hopeful Kellie Leitch.

Liberals Set to Table Marijuana Legislation, but Key Details Need to Be Resolved

The federal government will table a bill to legalize recreational marijuana on Thursday that is expected to tightly control the ability of producers to market their products to the public, federal sources said.
