HAZARDS OF CANNABIS

Re: Kitchener among first cities to get LCBO-run pot shop? - Nov. 4

Why promote cannabis in Ontario? What has happened to the no-smoking
publicity that we have been bombarded with over the past several
decades; the hazards of smoking related to cancer, lung disease etc.?
Legislation has been passed to hide cigarettes in stores and put
frightening pictures on cigarette packages. No smoking in public
places laws have been passed.

Now our government is encouraging young and old people to smoke
marijuana, cannabis or weed. We're going to open stores to sell this
stuff. Of course it will be controlled by our government. Who's going
to profit from this business venture?

Haven't we experienced the death of a loved one or friend who was
afflicted with cancer? Put a stop to this stupidity. Do some research.
Google the hazards of cannabis. Speak up. Talk to your children.
