Copyright: 2001 The Elk Valley Miner Contact: Box 820, Sparwood, B.C., V0B 2G0 IS THE BC MARIJUANA PARTY A LEGITIMATE CONTENDER IN THE NEXT PROVINCIAL ELECTION? No. Anything to do with drugs should be put in the dump and make sure a bulldozer goes through it. Howard Norris, Sparwood Yes, marijuana legislation is going to get turned over in less than one year and look at what the government is losing in revenues. Ivan Butler, Sparwood Yes, today's society is more liberal than it used to be. The debate is contentious. There are benefits and downfalls with it. Alain Frenette I don't know, but (legislation) should go through in terms of being legal because in a lot of ways it is useful for medical purposes. Neil Beranek, Sparwood (Expletive) no and I can add to that! I figure if most of these guys are on marijuana, they don't have any brains to start with. Phil Musil, Elk Valley
