DEMOCRATIC DRUGS

Re: "Intemperate temperance," Editorial, Feb.4.

Thank you for your common sense editorial pointing out that a ban on liquor 
sales to pregnant women "goes contrary to basic principles of democracy and 
personal responsibility."  The very same argument can be made against 
Canada's drug laws. Free adults have the right to ingest any drug.
