As a life-long Canadian citizen, unfortunately, I have to agree with you. It is sad. It's pathetic. It's a freakin' outrage is what it is. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that something like this could happen in Canada. The Canadian people, however, are not to blame. Canada has had a long-standing tolerance for cannabis, more or less, and I doubt that anyone would ever have expected to see this group of Bush-mongering idiots that call themselves a government act like this. I, as one Canadian, am doing everything I can to change it. I have faith that other Canadians will too and we can end this ludicrous nightmare that is the Conservative government in this country.
