WAR ON DRUGS IS FUTILE

To the editor:

The biggest mistake of our time is drug war. An idiot can run any
government based on zero tolerance, but it takes genius to control
populations with truthful understanding and compassion.

War is just too good a business, even when fought against ourselves.

One day the U.S. may see asset forfeiture and mandatory sentencing as the
handmaidens of the drug abuse industrial complex. It's about the money, stupid.

Just say no to drug war Canada. Do not elect or re-elect drug warriors.
