Canada is on a full-speed course to become U.S. North, while at the same time our government is the top drug dealer in Canada. We benefit from taxes on booze and cigarettes, the world's most damaging drugs, yet here Prime Minister Stephen Harper is spouting more anti-drug drivel. Alcohol is my problem, and it's a big one. Should I be sent to jail? This is not the country I want to retire in, or even live in, any more. James Beckett, Maple Ridge - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
