Other places that have done it confirm the trend. Doesn't that mean there will be more drug users, more drivers under the influence and more health problems? So why are we doing it? Has the federal government discovered new money that it will have to give to the provinces who are stuck implementing it? Or is this yet another ill-thought election promise that is hitting the fan? Especially the young are at risk, and the age limit of 18 is a joke. Kids can get it now when it's illegal, so how much easier will it be to get when it's legal? Weed is an additional health risk that Canadians need like a hole in the head. Rafal Pomian, Ottawa - --- MAP posted-by: Matt
