STOP COMPLAINING

Great. Here we go again. More whiners - namely, Jane Parker, MS sufferer
(Jan. 27 story). It is not enough that she can legally smoke marijuana, but
now she complains she has to apply for her licence to smoke it every 12
months?

Society is all about compliance: drivers' licences, taxes, memberships,
vehicle inspections, schools, and well, hell, even politicians have to prove
themselves sooner or later.

Ms. Parker, be happy you can smoke your dope freely. You are one of the
lucky ones.

By the way, I am PRO all the way on this issue and on the legalization of
marijuana.

I also have a severe, non-reversible, lifetime disability and after 15 years
of tax exemptions, I was recently certified only partially disabled by
Revenue Canada as an attempt to seize more of my hard-earned money! Now that
is something to complain about! Fair? Hardly. However, life goes on, eh?
