 You know I'm a Green Senator of course at some point or other in my life I've consumed cannabis but you know I sit in here right now I'm a good little Green Senator I don't consume recreational cannabis we think that there's an unstoppable national momentum towards legalising cannabis it's a question of when not if in our mind. I have spoken to many parents over many years in relation to their children who have utilized drugs and even cannabis it can change people's lives and not for the better. If I go into a coffee shop quite frankly I'm happy to have a normal cup of coffee. The majority of people who continue to use cannabis use it socially they use it instead of having a glass of wine and I know myself I would prefer to be able to enjoy a joint on a Friday night with friends in my home and feel like I should be able to do that. Our main motivation here is ending that criminalisation of people simply for consuming cannabis.
