Poilievre proposes life in prison for fentanyl dealers, human traffickers and gun smugglers
March 28, 2025

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre on Friday proposed life in prison for fentanyl traffickers, people convicted of multiple counts of human trafficking, and people who import or export more than 10 illegal guns.The pledge is an expanded version of a plan announced in early February, when Mr. Poilievre said a Conservative government would imprison fentanyl traffickers for life. He has spent months attacking what he has described as extreme drug policies of the current Liberal government, including prescription opioids, while promising to end such programs. He has promised to instead focus on treatment and stricter drug laws.
