Either we legalize it, and fast, or we get busy locking up millions of Canadians.

This is the elephant in the room that Drug Warriors won't discuss. Well, actually it is the largest elephant in the room among the other elephants of police corruption, addiction rates among police, suicide rates among police, divorce rates among police, criminality rates among children of police, a 16-year shorter than average life expectancy among police, etc.

The fact is there is no way to "win" the Drug War, so we better start thinking of what else we must do. The number of Drug Warriors required is infeasible. The number of prisons required is infeasible. The people who would have to be imprisoned would cause insurrection.

Many countries are abandoning the U.S. led (or should I say, "force fed") Drug War model. Canada and the UK will soon follow.

"The fact is there is no way to "win" the Drug War, so we better start thinking of what else we must do"

Our government isn't concerned about drugs. The "War on drugs" has never really been fought. If you look closer, you'll find that the "War on drugs" is nothing more than misleading title to the "War on our rights". A little slight of hand has gone a long way in successfully reducing our freedoms in ways that we would have never tolerated up front.

As I remember back in 1983 the New Zealand Medical Assoc. released a report on pot consumption and they found over 210 benifits to the human body when used lightly. I wish I could find that old report.
