Quebec government quietly loosened its approach to drug possession over a year ago
- The Quebec government quietly relaxed its stance on drug possession following a federal law aiming to keep drug users out of the criminal justice system.
- In April 2023, Quebec recommended prosecuting drug possession only when a public safety risk is involved.
- The change, first reported by Le Devoir, has led prosecutors to opt for not pursuing charges for small drug amounts or offering alternative programs like treatment.
