DEPRESSED CANADIANS NEED POT TO COPE

I have a very easy answer to the marijuana boondoggle. Just approve
medical marijuana to treat depression. Every Canadian will qualify! I
mean, really, there is swine flu, the economic meltdown, job losses,
the lack of reform to the Employment Insurance program, the Taliban in
Pakistan potentially obtaining nuclear weapons, politicians who cannot
focus on actually serving their electorate -- who in their right mind
is not depressed?

Once approved to treat depression, we can all grow a plant or two in
the backyard. Problem solved.
