LEGALIZE, REGULATE MARIJUANA

Re: Put a lid on pot, Letters, April 17

Minister of Health Rona Ambrose wrote, "We continue to oppose Justin
Trudeau's deeply irresponsible scheme to make it easier for our
children to access marijuana by selling it in stores, just like
cigarettes."

There is hardly a single shred of truth in that statement.

The Liberal government would control and regulate such transactions.
Sale of marijuana to minors would be strictly prohibited. The proposed
policy would provide better protection for our children. The Tories
are resorting to spreading misinformation. Is this a sign of
desperation?
