WAR ON DRUGS A FAILURE

Pot should be legalized, addiction centre says - Oct.
9

What do the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto, NORML
Canada and more than half of Canadian citizens have in common?

All call for the legalization or decriminalization of
marijuana.

The war on drugs is a war against our friends, our families, our
children, and in very large numbers, against ourselves. It is a
costly, abject failure. It's time to do what is right, and if Prime
Minister Stephen Harper's government can't see that, we will elect
those who do.
