OTTAWA NEEDS TO CHANGE LAWS

To the editor:

Christine Hulme Colin (Letters, April 4) raises an interesting point
while disagreeing with Parker Barss Donham's view of the silly drug
laws in this country. "If we allow our youths to break such benign
laws ... who's going to deal with the worse behaviour that comes as a
result?"

Good question. What happens when these kids grow up with a disrespect
for all laws, not just the bad ones, because some people in Ottawa
refuse to acknowledge and repeal them?
