MARIJUANA: REGULATED MARKET WITH AGE CONTROLS NEEDED

RE Christina Blizzard's "Hooked on wages of sin (Nov. 3):

There is a big difference between condoning marijuana use and protecting
children from drugs. The Liberal decriminalization bill acknowledges the
social reality of marijuana use and frees users from the stigma of
life-shattering criminal records. What's really needed is a regulated market
with age controls.
