Alan Shanoff's column exposed the inevitable ( Canada up in smoke when it comes to new marijuana legislation, Nov. 8, edition of The Tribune). Cannabis prohibition is hanging on a thread. As a Colorado citizen I challenge California, Canada, Massachusetts, Mexico, Washington, Nevada, Oregon and others to a competition in a race to legalize cannabis first. It's no longer a question of if but rather when and who will legalize the relatively safe, God-given plant cannabis first. A race toward sanity and ending one of North America's worst policy failures. I challenge North America in a race to make the world a better, safer and more loving place.
