LEGAL POT GETS MY VOTE

Re Trudeau Embraces Legal Pot As Liberals, NDP Look To 2015 (July 26):
While Justin Trudeau is in favour of legalization, the NDP says
decriminalization is the solution. Has Tom Mulcair walked around
downtown Toronto lately?

Marijuana use is widespread - on the street, in parks, at the beach.
It is already de facto decriminalized.

Only legalization can end the obscene profits, grow-ops and violence
linked to the drug trade, just as ending Prohibition did with alcohol.
The Liberals have my vote for this stance alone.
