RELAXED POT LAWS WILL ADD TO OUR PROBLEMS
Editor:
Referring to 'Binns urges feds to move with caution on pot laws' (The
Guardian, Dec. 13, 2002). One has to wonder what the outcome may be if the
laws about using marijuana are even somewhat relaxed in P.E.I. and/or in
Canada. The U.S. has been quick to jump on the recommendation already. When
one considers the many problems that the health department and government
officials have faced, and are still facing, about cigarette smoking over
past years, one has to wonder what new problems may be faced if pot is
allowed to be used more freely as a result of current laws being relaxed.
