Hazy Policy

Re: Impaired driving laws a speed bump to legalize pot.

I just read where road deaths have doubled in Washington State since it 
legalized pot a few years ago. That being said, in promising to legalize 
this narcotic for votes, Prime Minister Trudeau simply ignored that no 
road test existed to test for intoxication by inhaling this drug.

Another major problem was recently highlighted by the Canadian Medical 
Association, which declared nobody under 21 should be able to buy this 
narcotic because of the real risk of them suffering psychosis and other 
mental issues if consumed at a young age.

I sure wish the Trudeau government would be half the effort it is 
putting into legalized marijuana into growing our economy and creating jobs!
