LIQUOR BOARD CAN REGULATE POT
In reference to marijuana, grow it, tax it and then put that money
back into health care.
Good plan? I certainly think so, and I thought so when I first heard
it about five years ago. It is about time that someone with enough of
a voice is saying the same thing.
We are almost a backwater in our handling of marijuana.
Treat it like other things in this country -- regulate it and tax it.
In B.C., you could even put marijuana under the liquor control board.
