Why are you suggesting more legislation to solve the moral problem?

Because I'm a cautious Canadian :)

Seriously: the kind of legislation I was suggesting is aimed at restricting governmental overkill. You can think of it as an armistice for the Drug War.

Canadian law illegalizes the same substances that U.S. law does, but there's little to no overkill in Canada. That's because there's been no erosion of civil liberties in Canada.

I have,nt been to Canada very many times but what i saw made me wonder if they even have any civil liberties, i was instructed to stop at the weigh station and buy a permit for running in Canada with my truck which i did.

The cops searched my truck, searched my wifes purse, kept me there two hours trying to find something in my drivers log to ticket me for and could find nothing.

The Canadian drivers would come in and all kinds of things were found wrong in their drivers logs but all they did was to lick the boots of the cops and then be on their way with a little scolding like they were little kids.

My last time in Canada.

MJ is the number one cash crop in the US - and in Canada.

Difference being, Cannada sells it to the US as a hemp product - it is used in almost every car manufactured, etc.

How silly is this.

“Plant Hemp For Victory!”

US WWII Slogan. A felony, now.

The US government is insane.
