Looking forward to the day when bus drivers, airplane pilot, police and
the likes of Sammy Yatim are free to smoke marijuana for stress relief.

You forgot to mention the children!

I am not a bus driver, airplane pilot, police, or a teenager. There is no valid reason for laws preventing me from buying and using cannabis in my leisure time. Even the Senate, that house of sober second thought, looked into the matter twice, 30 years apart - in 1970 and more recently in 2002 and both times concluded that the laws against possession where more harmful than the act of using, and that cannabis should be legalized and taxed.

Sign me up.

It's a competitive world out there. The more people smoking weed while I don't, the better!

You guys understand that prohibition has been completely useless, right? Anybody in Canada who wants marijuana but can't get it NOW is too incompetent to be competition for you.

If marijuana becomes legal, and as alcohol and prostitution is already legal, will everyone admit that private healthcare should be legal in Ontario, as well?

Liberals are desperate, looking too find voters! They are going down like the Titanic. Sure legalize weed, gez, while your at it, put alcohol and beer at corner stores also medical weed vending machines just like California.

Btw Du Maurie is lobbying for a commercial medical Marijuana Licence.

If they put alcohol at corner stores, I think that would be good news for KFC and Popeyes. Based upon the U.S. experience, alcohol and chicken are purchased one after the other, quite often.

Not only our Senate, but several public Commissions in Canada, other countries and international over the past 40 years have carefully considered the issues and come to the same conclusions.

Only in the USA -- the home of Drug Commissioner Harry Anslinger, "reefer madness" and its obstinate and narrow minded "war on drugs" -- is there a contrary view.

Lots of people are making lots of money on war on drugs, yet common sense won in a few states

Based on Montreal, not so much of a problem.

Even if the majority of Canadians want to see marijuana legalized, it won't happen. That's because the minority of Canadians who fund political campaigns don't want it to happen, and the politicians they own will do as they're told.

If you own a $ 5 million home in The Bridal Path, the last thing you want to see is a Rastaman moving in next door, one who bought the house in cash, with $100 bills. There's no way to prevent him from making money, as long as it's earned illegitimately. That way, he can't use it to buy the sort of commodities that require a paper trail that can be followed by tax auditors.

Look at where legal drugs come from - developed, industrial nations. Look where illegal drugs come from - third world countries, often with non democratic governments. Those who became rich through inheritance know that all money is not created equal.
