I think it’s fair to suggest that the CDPC favours a model of regulation that draws on the best evidence from public health regulation of alcohol and tobacco. But when it comes to cannabis regulation the devil really is in the details. Via Julian Buchanan

We live in a time when elected officalls are freely volunteering admissions of smoking crack as well as boldly declaring their recreational drug use.. Such open admissions of drug use does not equate into a peerceptiopn of drug abuse .Even when such declarations come from those who hold seats of power, the majority of people are increasingly more to forgive than condem. For example : the publicly pillaryed Marion Barry, L. A. Mayor snaged in a drug sting. some say it was a set-up. Notwithstanding the crucible Mr. Barry suffered from media and pundits he was re-elected after every selacious detail of his being busted was blasted in the court of public opinion. Re-Elected... by mandated numbers These revelations only support the need for national harm reduction awareness education.
