CITIES SHOULD ACT ON MARIJUANA

Re: "Langford launches new bid to block marijuana dispensary," Feb. 15. 
I'm fairly certain jay-walking is still against the law. Is Langford 
Mayor Stew Young "mad as hell" that this is still going on, despite 
being illegal?

There has long been good reason to decriminalize marijuana, as
Canadian drug laws arguably cause more harm than good. Our federal
government, along with a great many voters, clearly agree with this.

Municipalities need to take responsibility and do what they know is
right, with or without help from the federal government.
