Those actions speak for themselves,’ Harper says of Trudeau’s admission to smoking pot as MP

Justin Trudeau, who has endorsed legalizing marijuana, is making no apologies for smoking pot once as a Member of Parliament, while Prime Minister Stephen Harper had a decidedly unimpressed reaction to the revelation. Chris Selley: Maybe Justin Trudeau can convince Stephen Harper of the insanity of our marijuana laws We’ve never seen a major federal party leader out on this limb. NDP leader Tom Mulcair is for decriminalization, as Jack Layton was. The Paul Martin Liberals couldn’t even pull that off — I’m not convinced they ever really intended to — and since then, they’ve had a leader who once advised high school students not to “park your life at the end of a marijuana cigarette.” Neither party’s 2011 election platform mentioned illicit drugs at all. (The Greens support legalization.) And the Conservatives, naturally, promised to “crack down on organized drug crime.”

“For Mr. Trudeau, I think those actions speak for themselves and I don’t have anything to add,” Harper told an audience in Nunavut Thursday. The Liberal leader told The Huffington Post Canada‘s Althia Raj that he had a “puff” three years ago. He was first elected in 2008. Speaking later on Thursday, Trudeau said he had not regrets about his drug use. “No, it wasn’t a mistake,” Trudeau said in response to a question in Quebec City. “I do not consume cannabis. I am not a big consumer at all. I tried it… “I’ve never tried other types of hard drugs. I am not a consumer of marijuana but, yes, I’ve already tried it. I used it — maybe five or six times in my life.” Trudeau said he smoked pot once about three year ago with friends. “We had a few good friends over for a dinner party, our kids were at their grandmother’s for the night, and one of our friends lit a joint and passed it around. I had a puff,” Trudeau told The Huffington Post.

The revelation will likely create additional fodder for the ruling Conservatives, whose attacks ads against Trudeau have questioned his judgement as a leader. The Huffington Post asked all three of the major party leaders if they smoked pot at any time. Harper said he never had tried cannabis, while NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair said he had smoked pot, but would not go into details on when he had or how he got it. Trudeau agreed to a 20-minute interview on the matter saying he wanted to be fully transparent because of his legalization position. He said he smoked pot about five or six times but it “has never really done anything for me.” In the candid interview, Trudeau said his late brother, Michel Trudeau, was facing marijuana possession charges before he died in 1998, and that was a factor in his position on the issue. Trudeau said that he doesn’t drink much and that’s he’s never smoked cigarettes. He also said he doesn’t drink coffee — a statement that political reporters will need to be monitor carefully during 2015 campaign stops at small town Tim Hortons. Unsurprisingly, given social media’s demographics skewing towards youth and writers, it seems that Trudeau’s remarks about abstaining from coffee sparked more controversy than his pot dabbling.

The new Liberal leader has made the pot issue one of the few high-profile planks of his policy plans. Initially, he said he supported decriminalization but in July announced he wanted to go further. “I’m actually not in favour of decriminalizing cannabis. I’m in favour of legalizing it,” he told a B.C. crowd. “Tax it, regulate. It’s one of the only ways to keep it out of the hands of our kids because the current war on drugs, the current model is not working. We have to use evidence and science to make sure we’re moving forward on that.” According to a Health Canada study, 39% of Canadians have tried pot at least once in their lives.
