FEDERAL FUMBLERS CAN'T EVEN GROW POT

Regarding the article, Ottawa pot crop a bust (Nov. 17).

The government spends $5 million to grow marijuana and it doesn't turn out. 
When I grow a crop of tobacco and it doesn't turn out, I don't get paid. 
The public has been after tobacco farmers to grow alternative crops, but 
the government never has enough money for us to develop them and, most 
importantly, find and protect markets.

Why not ask a kid off the street how to grow marijuana? There are obviously 
some out there with more know-how than Prairie Plant Systems Inc.
