POT COPS COME WITH GUNS BLAZING

After newspapers reported that pot arrests across the country have
increased sharply since the Tories took power - by 20 to 50 per cent
in T.O., Ottawa and Montreal - Chief Bill Blair was quick to attribute
the spike in possession charges here to busts of gangs, not of rec
tokers. We should all get a little more brazen with our blazing and
gum up the courts then. Maybe that would slap a little sense into the
Cons and cops wasting our time and taxpayers' money on pot charges.
