TORY HYPOCRITES

The Conservatives preach a zero-tolerance policy to drug use and plan
to impose mandatory jail time for people who grow even one marijuana
plant in a rented dwelling. Yet when Rahim Jaffer, the husband of a
Tory MP, is charged with drunk driving and cocaine possession, he gets
to plead down to "careless driving". One can only assume Jaffer had
some help from his friends in very high places. One law for them,
another law for the "little people."

Maybe now more Canadians will realize what a bunch of brazen
hypocrites these so-called "conservatives" really are.
