FLIN FLON FIASCO

Did Anne McLellan and the hapless Flin Flon grain farmers not realize that
if they planted seeds from several different marijuana seizures the crop
would contain several different marijuana strains? ("Crop up in smoke,"
Nov. 17.)

Any local Flin Flonian of school age would likely be able to draw that
conclusion. We must pose the age-old question most politicians are faced
with several times in their careers. Are they stupid or lying? Was this
exotic underground grow-op a doomed smokescreen to appease the courts and
the people while keeping the Americans from turning our border into the
Berlin wall? Sick people should be able to get high and Sally Housecoat and
Johnny Lunchpail should pay for it!
