Résumé :
ENGLISH :
Findings from the Ontario Student Drug Use Survey in 2001 show that alcohol, cannabis, and cigarettes were the drugs most likely to have been used in the past year by 7th-13th graders. There were significant declines from 1999 in use of cigarettes, solvents, and LSD. However, several drugs were significantly more likely to be used by Ontario students in 2001 than in 1993, including alcohol (and binge drinking), cannabis, solvents, ecstasy, PCP, hallucinogens, and cocaine, and use of any illicit drug rose from 18.5 to 33.2 percent of Ontario students. A comparison of the 2001 Ontario data with data from the Monitoring the Future Study show that Ontario 10th and 12th grade students were more likely than those in the United States to report ever using alcohol and hallucinogens other than LSD, while American 10th graders were more likely than Ontario 10th graders to report lifetime use of amphetamines and tranquilizers.
