HANG IN THERE, CANNABIS WILL BECOME LEGAL

Dear Editor:

Although Sensible B.C. didn't get enough signatures to make the next
ballot, I'm writing to encourage citizens in British Columbia and all
Canadians to continue hope and the good fight (Just a matter of time
before pot is legalized, The Record, Our View, Dec. 11) to end
discrimination towards citizens who use the God-given plant cannabis
(marijuana). The majority of North American's support ending this
government-subsidized discrimination and the day will come when the
injustice is over and people look back and ask how on earth cannabis
prohibition ever started to begin with?

As a Colorado citizen who helped RE-legalize cannabis for sick
citizens over a decade ago and completely RE-legalize the plant a year
ago, I can assure Canadians, the vile ignorance will end.
