PLATEAU POT VOTES

Attention pot smokers, libertarians and all those with a realistic
perspective on the killer weed: this November, you'll find yourself
with a genuine opportunity to move the struggle towards legalizing
reefer just a little bit further in the right direction-if you reside
in the Plateau.

Yes, celebrated local pot activist/politician Marc-Boris St-Maurice
has officially announced he will be running as an independent
candidate in the Jeanne-Mance riding in next fall's municipal election.

"All that was needed to win this riding last time around was 3,006
votes," says St-Maurice. "Voter turn-out is historically low
here-around 20 per cent."

In other words, if you're a Plateau pot smoker and you'd like the
local police to "start working harder to combat bicycle theft in the
neighbourhood instead of arresting people for smoking marijuana," then
go crazy and take a second to vote this coming November.

"A lot can be accomplished on a municipal level just by instructing
the police in our district to make cannabis offences their lowest
possible priority," he says. "It's already been done quite
successfully in certain American cities."
