WAR ON DRUGS IS OVER
Re: Marijuana use doubles: study (Gazette, Nov. 24).
The time has come for Canadians to stop asking the government to
legalize and regulate cannabis, and start demanding that they do it
immediately. If prohibition were going to work, it would have worked
by now.
On behalf of medical and recreational marijuana users nation wide, I
would like to declare victory in the War On Drugs. Police and
government declared this war on plants decades ago, and they have
suffered an embarrassing defeat. We are ready to listen to the terms
of their surrender.
