SMITH'S PLAN SHAMEFUL

Re: " 'Get out,' mayor tells drug users, pushers, Journal, Oct. 10.

I nearly choked when I read the headline and article on the front page of 
Friday's paper.

Get out of Edmonton? Get out of Alberta? And go where? To another province 
where their under-resourced police and communities can deal with the problem?

Shame on you, Mayor Bill Smith. What if it was your son, daughter or wife 
who had an addiction and needed help?
