Not quite sure about this. She went on a blatantly ignorant rant and said some really stupid stuff when the supreme court decision came down reversing CPC's decision to restrict medical marijuana to a dried form saying:
"Court has ruled that marijuana cookies and brownies are quote medicinal treatment" ... "Frankly I’m outraged at the Supreme Court."... "We have this message that normalizes a drug where there is no clear clinical evidence that it is, quote-unquote, a medicine" calling marijuana a medicine only "because judges deemed it so."
When the press asked questions about why she wasn't doing more to enact regulations around marijuana and it's derivatives as minister of health... she said "That’s not my job as minister"

Even though non of what she said was based on fact

She was just following party policy under Harper, making things up to that effect even when it's false and if the CPC's goal is to get elected again this isn't a promising thing given how strongly voters rejected that brand of politics in the last election.

She was also minister of environment under Harper, how did that turn out for Canada. Kyoto accords, etc.
