TORIES AND POT

I have no doubt that even a minority Conservative government would 
shutter Health Canada's Medical Marijuana Licence program, leaving my 
wife and me to get our medicine from "the street" once again.

The government has the home addresses of the 1,100 licence holders, 
so we also expect a visit from the police and to be charged, as is 
happening in the U.S. Neither of us would survive long in jail.

Harper's promised crackdown on growers will raise street prices 
significantly, lower quality, and increase the potential of us being 
injured or killed trying to get our medicine.

My wife and I are more than just worried about a Conservative win - 
we are afraid for our lives.
