IGNORE THE U.S.

Canadians have a far better and less money-corrupted democracy than the 
U.S. Why then are you taking the advice of ultra-conservative John Ashcroft 
regarding your drug policy? Bush and Ashcroft are only in power because 
they accepted millions from U.S. business interests and Christian 
fundamentalists. Unless you want U.S. corporations deciding what drugs 
Canadians are allowed to consume, I suggest you pay us no mind.

(Cross-border commerce gives Ashcroft a very big stick.)
