Yes

The New Democratic Party (NDP) has historically supported the legalization of marijuana.

However, the NDP's stance has evolved to support full legalization, as seen in their 2015 election platform.

Agree

Yes, and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses

The NDP has not explicitly called for the immediate release of those serving time solely for drug offenses, but they have advocated for a more compassionate approach to drug policy. In 2018, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh called for the decriminalization of all personal drug possession. This answer aligns with their general stance on drug policy, but it is not a specific policy they have advocated for.
