Since the beginning of the "War on Drugs," the privacy rights of citizens in the U.S. have been destroyed. We know the methods used by America do not work. Believe me, we are not better off because of the war on drugs, and Canada will not be better off if it "tightens" its laws. It will only be crumbling to the "bully" tactics of the U.S., and its citizens will slowly lose their right to privacy. Gregory Handevidt, Lakeside, Calif.
