CANADA HOLDS A GRUDGE
Editor -- How ironic that you may be denied entry into Canada because
you got caught in the United States smoking cannabis, that was
probably smuggled in from Canada ("Going to Canada? Check your past," Feb. 23).
Maybe stories like this will open more eyes to this country's failed
war on (some) drugs. We continue to jail people because we're mad at
them, not scared of them, then continue to hold that grudge forever
by permanently putting it on their record.
