Prohibition-related crime is top threat

I question the percentage of the Canadian population that is asking law enforcement agencies to support Bill S-10 (Pot grow-ops: Six months in jail for six plants? The News, March 3).

I question the percentage of the Canadian population that is asking law enforcement agencies to support Bill S-10 (Pot grow-ops: Six months in jail for six plants? The News, March 3).

North Americans having been reading that roughly half of all Canadians support legalizing, regulating and taxing the relatively safe, extremely popular God-given plant cannabis (marijuana).

If Bill S-10 were put to a vote by citizens, it would surely fail.

Further, Abbotsford MP Ed Fast, is mistaken: The number one threat is not drug or gang-related crime, it’s prohibition-related crime.

And whoever supports prohibition clearly supports increased crime.
