BOTH PARTIES HELP ORGANIZED CRIME

For more than a decade, the Liberals have endorsed and pursued a
policy of marijuana prohibition. This policy has subsidized the
underground economy, wasted valuable and scarce police resources,
deprived Canadians of a valuable source of medicine and tax revenue,
started a street war in Toronto, while making marijuana easier for
kids to get than either alcohol or tobacco.

The Tories would not only continue with this policy, but would
increase efforts and spending, likely resulting in even more misery
and death. It would also increase the dealers' profits.

It sounds to me like both parties are in cahoots with "organized
crime."
