JUST THE FACTS Edmonton Conservative MP Peter Goldring said he's firmly opposed to decriminalizing marijuana. The bottom line is prohibition wastes tax dollars, subsidizes organized crime via massively inflated black market value, usurps Canadians' rights to choice, increases crime, deprives Canadians of a source of medicine and tax revenue, and makes drugs more easily available to kids. That isn't opinion, it is fact. Russell Barth (Yep, pretty much.) - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
