SENATE NEEDS TO RETIRE
WHAT HAVE they been smoking in the Senate? This talk of legalizing
marijuana is sheer lunacy. All provinces have legal drinking ages and most
are now doing the same for tobacco products. Why? Because they're dangerous
products when not used carefully. So now the Senate wants to legalize a
substance that combines the toxic effects of tobacco with the mood-altering
effects of alcohol and give it to teens who are too young to purchase the
other products which are too dangerous for them? I think this Senate needs
to retire instead of wasting their time on issues like this.
