Brian LIBERALS ARE RIGHT IN NOT HELPING THE DRUG ADDICTED The Editor, Letter writers have complained the provincial Liberals purposely turned their backs on individuals with drug addictions. There is good explanation for this. The Liberals limited welfare recipients to no more than two years of assistance. As a result, the money ended up in the wrong hands: Drug addicts blew their welfare cheques on their daily doses of smack and crystal meth. The Liberals, therefore, realized that people with disabilities are the ones who need support, due to the fact they are unable to work and lack the mental capacity to do so. They want to be loved and are in need of compassionate people who are willing to help make a difference. In terms of helping people with disabilities, this government has done a wonderful job in assisting those who are really in need and giving them care. The ones who are lazy and do drugs don't deserve any support from our government. Life is what one makes of it. M. Brian Surrey - --- MAP posted-by: Elaine
