Fentanyl sentencing

Hamadeh proposes reclassifying fentanyl in the criminal code as a “dangerous” drug or a “poison,” which he says would allow harsher punishment and enhanced sentencing. He presents this as a way to respond to fentanyl-related harm.

Context: The proposal does not specify the exact classification or sentencing changes.

In their own words

This begins with reclassifying the criminal code so that Fentanyl is a “dangerous” drug or a “poison”
