CHIPS ARE WORSE THAN POT
Re: "Cutting down on the green" (Feb. 19)
Rachel Sunter may have amused herself presenting a derogatory and
distorted picture of cannabis and the culture that embraces Earth's
most useful plant, but her skill at research leaves much to be desired.
There has never been a recorded case of cannabis causing cancer in
humans, and neither has cannabis ingestion ever killed a human.
Recommendations to avoid cannabis to prevent fictitious cancers are
nonsense. Potato chips are infinitely worse for human health than cannabis.
Cannabis has been shown to kill eight cancers in experimental conditions.
The average cannabis user is better educated, earns more income, and
is healthier than the average Canadian.
Cannabis use in all forms needs to increase, whether as fibre, food,
fuel or medicine, and that's exactly what's happening.
