SAVES TAX DOLLARS

I agree with decriminalizing marijuana.

Think of the tax dollars that would be saved if these people were not
processed through our court system or sent to jail. Taxes generated
from the legalized sale could benefit our province, big time.

However, the law needs to include an age restriction, 21 perhaps, and
has to impose a type of grow-op licence which the government could
regulate.

We could even sell our world-famous B.C. bud to other countries where
it is legal and in demand.

Finally, marijuana can be addictive if you are not in control -- same
as alcohol. But I have never heard of anyone needing treatment for
"marijuana poisoning."
