POT REFORM JUST SMOKE

Canadians have protection from unreasonable searches and seizures under 
Section 8 of your Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Can the Canadian government demonstrably justify (the legal rationale) to 
violate this right and seize marijuana? Is the use of marijuana a greater 
threat than alcohol? Until your courts give Charter protection for 
individuals growing marijuana for private use, decriminalization does not 
change anything, with organized crime controlling the distribution of 
marijuana.
