WHY GIVE POT SO MUCH INK?

It would be interesting to read a scientific, statistical comparison
of alcohol with pot, the pervasiveness of each in Canadian society and
the harmful and addictive effects of each.

It would also be interesting to compare the harmful and addictive
effects of "hard" drugs such as heroin and cocaine versus pot.

Even tobacco would make for an enlightening comparison.

Finally, it would interest your readers to see a count of the articles
printed about pot in The Province versus articles about alcohol or
hard drugs.
