"ACCUSED SHOULD BE PUNISHED, REGARDLESS OF COPS' MISTAKES"

The law's an ass when it comes to illegal drugs. Until the judge's
sons and daughters get hooked on drugs, or until the laws are changed
in Canada, we remain the best haven for growers and pushers.

John Harvey, Burnaby

It's a disgusting waste of my tax dollars. Why can't they go out and
catch real criminals? This is B.C.'s biggest cash crop and, hey, face
it, our economy is in the tank. We need all the money we can get. We
should be taxing this.
