It's smack on! There certainly was no real reason to remove Kirk, even to conservatives, even if we forget Larsen. LSD doesn't have a political party and Larsen's tapes didn't help the cannabis movement, but that aside, he hid zero. Layton may not have had a deal with Emery, but he certainly had one with me as a NDP member and as the one who got the first NDP cannabis resolution for their 2006 Quebec City convention. I am now running as an independent to further the issue and to remove the blatant anti-Semitic label imposed on me by as it turns out Harper himself with Layton's eager assist I think. Cheers, John Shavluk Independent candidate for Newton-North Delta riding - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
