Australia: Timothy Hallcroft, Legalise Cannabis Queensland Party
GC News Thursday 19 Sep 2024 Throughout my life I have laid my hand to many different industries including professional trackwork rider, OH&S manager, rural fire service volunteer, and senior firefighter for New South Wales fire brigades where I was appointed the OH&S regional representative. My family and I moved to the Sunshine Coast in 2006 as my eldest son had a bone disease and I changed careers to construction. For the past six years I have been heavily involved in the legitimate vaping industry, where I am known as one of Australia’s leading authorities in vaping. I have owned and setup vaping businesses throughout the coast. I have advised Queensland Health, and have worked with and advised doctors and pharmacists on nicotine and was one of the first people to bring the dangers of disposable vaping systems to the attention of the Government some five years ago. I have helped hundreds of people around the coast break the addiction of cigarettes and have helped many people who suffer from cancer to find the correct device for medicinal Cannabis. Since the new laws for vaping have been enforced, I have had to close my business and return to the construction industry. Election vision I fully support the legalisation of Cannabis under a regulated framework where small, local businesses can operate within a regulated grower’s market and dispensary clinics. In opening the Cannabis market up to small business, we can improve on quality and reduce the amount of imported cannabis from overseas. In taking this approach, we will see more jobs created and a more independent growing community. This I believe must have strict guidelines for this venture to work and with common sense and listening to proper experts from the Cannabis community this is both viable and very achievable. The hemp industry in Australia is in its infancy. I believe that utilising the former cane fields and old mills would be of great benefit for Queensland and would bring in much needed revenue and an abundance of employment opportunities as well as a viable green opportunity in which we can capitalise on. My personal vision is based on the small business growth throughout Glasshouse and Queensland. As a former business owner and advisor this subject is close to my heart. There is no better encouragement than seeing people succeed in doing something they love. I do believe however that the Government is over taxing and is stifling the growth of our economy and small businesses. I also firmly believe that all politicians should have real world experience or proper education in the portfolios that they preside over. Small businesses are the backbone of, and the soul of all communities and they need the support of all locals but more importantly support from the local Government. I will be doing as much as possible for all small businesses within the seat of Glasshouse and the greater Queensland state. https://gcnews.com.au/timothy-hallcroft-legalise-cannabis-queensland-party/
