Georges-Louis Bouchez firmly denounced the distribution of straws for snorting cocaine at the Dour festival, an initiative run by a heavily subsidised non-profit. For Georges-Louis Bouchez, this is an unacceptable normalisation of drugs funded with public money. The MR is calling for the immediate end of support for these associations and advocates zero tolerance towards drug use!
The MR President believes this amounts to an unacceptable normalisation of drugs under the guise of “harm reduction”, and that taxpayers' money must never be used to encourage such behaviour.
For the MR President, the question of subsidies to this association must be raised. This is an opportunity for liberals to reaffirm our determination to fight without compromise against drug use. For the MR, public policy must focus on genuine prevention, security and the protection of citizens, not on facilitating illegal practices.
