MARIJUANA STRATEGY MISSING

Re: Grits' plan to legalize pot hazy: province (Oct.21).

I think marijuana should only be legalized for medicinal purposes and
not for recreational purposes. Therefore, I don't think marijuana
should be sold at provincial liquor stores, but should be provided at
hospitals when prescribed by a doctor or personal psychiatrists.

I find that marijuana is an unsafe substance and I think that people
impairing their train of thought and ability to comprehend what is
happening around them without consequences is dangerous.

I agree that Manitoba should work on a harm reduction strategy to
address dangers of marijuana and not just look into the revenue.
