I applaud it. Now the police can spend their time catching the real criminals, like the gangs in Toronto who are trying to kill each other off, and I doubt that they are killing each other over marijuana. Now the police will be able to concentrate their energy more on the dangerous drugs like heroin. Maybe they will have more time and resources made available to investigate spousal and child abuse and so on and so on. Freeing the police up to deal with the "real problems" is great. Thank you feds! Dave Brown Cambridge - --- MAP posted-by: Beth
