REGULATE CANNABIS

Re: "Surrey grow-op tactics not for us," The Leader, May 7.

Criminologist Daryl Plecas has been a paid shill for the RCMP. Any
"study" he conducts should be taken with a grain of salt.

That aside, of course any decrease in cannabis production in Surrey is
compensated for elsewhere - that is basic supply and demand.

Our only real choice about cannabis is whether we want it grown and
sold by licensed farmers and storekeeper or whether we want to leave
it as is.

I choose regulation over black markets.
