CASH THERE FOR POT DAMAGE?

Last week, the Quebec Court of Appeal ordered two major tobacco
companies to set aside almost $1 billion for future payments to people
hurt from smoking.

Will the new Liberal government of Justin Trudeau put aside a sizable
amount of money to treat the long-term effect of prolonged use of
marijuana, especially by our younger generation? Are they going to
ignore the warnings by the medical professions for the sake of
personal liberty?
