DISCRIMINATION AGAINST CITIZENS MUST END NOW

Cannabis (marijuana) prohibition, the act of caging responsible adults
for using the relatively safe, extremely popular God-given plant, has
been very lucrative for the institution of policing.

I refer to The Daily Press story, "No Good Can Come Of This,"
published on Dec. 5. It would be surprising for Timmins Police Chief
John Gauthier to think rationally regarding cannabis and give up the
decades old gravy train.

Discriminating against citizens, especially sick citizens, who use
cannabis is on its last leg and should not be tolerated by civilized
society any longer.

Police should devote all of their attention to protecting citizens.
