BC mayors call for legalization, regulation of marijuana

A coalition of British Columbia mayors has written a letter to the premier and the leaders of the opposition parties pleading for an end to current drug enforcement strategies.

We stand together as B.C. mayors because we think our communities will be safer and our children better protected from criminal elements if we overturn marijuana prohibition and implement policies that strictly regulate the adult use of cannabis” the letter states.

The moves comes just months after four former BC attorneys general called for legalization and regulation.

Meanwhile the Harper gang is ploughing ahead with plans for harsh new sentences for possession of small quantities of pot.

Just who is out of touch with reality here?
