draft legislation for the legalization of cannabis is under review, many have wondered how it will affect the criminal justice system and policing. I have never seen a fight associated with cannabis, I have never seen an assault or a crime of violence associated with just cannabis — cannabis and alcohol, yes but not just cannabis. Alcohol creates a huge amount of work for the criminal justice system in the N.W.T. Legalization of cannabis is going to mean changes for the criminal justice system and policing in the N.W.T. How ready do you think the police force and justice system are to manage the changes in the law that you're seeing in Bill 6?
