Pay attention closely... "We want to implement some rules... Banning using marijuana and driving.." Oh great. We're better off now with Harper. At least I can still smoke pot and drive !
@BigG99 I agree. NDP supporters are using Mr. Layton's passing away to score political points, something that the ndp & supporters say only other parties do. They strike me as a very hypocritical bunch
we all need to vote NDP, they have an incredibly high chance of being elected this time. we had enough of liberal bullshits and stephen harper's war project!
Based on this, we all know the NDP's stance on Cannabis. Legalize! But as the 3rd party and sometimes the 4th because of the stupid Bloc, they had absolutely no clout to actually do anything about it in Parliament.
As to Dana and Kirk, they were stupid and posted videos of them driving while under the influence of several drugs. Of course they had to distance themselves from the campaign for awhile to as not to hurt their party.
jack layton is not a doctor tsk tsk tsk ironic when he is says he would focus on our healthcare but legalize marijuana? what cigerette and alchohol not harmful enough for ya?
@cham4356 You should read more. Cannabis is actually measurably less harmful in every way (except criminal sanction) than alcohol and nicotine in any form.
@cham4356 Um, do some research. Cannabis is entirely safe because there has NEVER been a death attributed to it's exclusive use. Alcohol and cigarettes kill thousands annually and are legal. And legalizing a safe substance you CANNOT die of an overdose on, is good economic policy. It will free up billions of dollars wasted on the Crminal justice system, so they can concentrate on REAL crime.
harper may have an agenda on the war on drugs but, there is legal medical marijuwana that is goverment funded. so, in a way he is a drug dealer. LOLOLOL drug dealers dont want it legal it takes away proifts for them. I wonder who is going to be voting for harper. Not me.
Will jack pass prescribed drugs? if so i'd rather grab some tylonal 3's and oxycotons anyday than sloppy skitzophernia mary jane..Plus i hear jack is going to raise the minimum wage and make it "affordible" to live in canada..I'll give him a chance and vote for him this may..
...but not MAKE those decisions FOR us... Thats where the line should be drawn for gov't boundaries...The best gov't is which governs least...don't treat us like children &take away OUR RIGHT to self-decide.. I have SO MUCH more to say about this &MANY more ideas, but I cant be bothered to keep writing..esp. on youtube...All I know is that this will solve MANY problems&make ppl happier& more trusting in the gov't...Coffee addicts, ciggyy..
"It's only 'abuse' when it goes against the status-quo"
for personal use, not harming or infringing on the rights of others... all drugs should be legal (they are a personal choice and freedom), but make sure to warn people that if you get behind a wheel or do smthg harmful while intoxicated (on drugs INCLUDING alcohol, like it currently is) then THAT will be a punishable crime. Legalize all rec. drugs, make harm-to-others a crime and let ppl know that government's role is to EDUCATE and make sure we make INFORMED decisions (..cont'd..)
the education-campaigns (just like with cigarettes and alcohol), prisons would DRASTICALLY be LESS-populated/crowded, we wouldn't have to spend so much money incarcerating ppl, the cops would be able to focus more on rapes/murders..etc..people wouldn't be stigmatized..jobs would be created for drug-services/counselling...don't insult our intelligence...let us know the risks/benefits of the drugs but don't make the decision FOR us, like children..make ALL drugs legal as long as it's (..cont'd..)
And if someone wants to be a drug-addict, that should be their own personal choice.

Ahh this is just another political move by the NDP to gain support, they really don't want to decriminalize pot, they just have a bad rep for making some bad economic choices and political moves over the years that really messed up the system. Believe me, I know Jack Layton, and he really doesn't care about this cause.
@andy77718 If he really doesnt care about this issue then he feels the same way alot of us feel. Lets just legalize it and get on to some real issues. I bet the mistakes he has made through the years(which I am well aware of) are not the amount harper has made through out his term.
@SnowbirdFlock fuck your shitty comments, they are worthless. u need to worry about your sandy cunt and not what the youth of today are doing...who do u think you are? who are u to fucking dictate what the youth is doing?
@SnowbirdFlock actually i am 45. and i am not a pot head. i am just aware of the fact that you have been sadly conformed to believe what ever your goverment tells you to. u have a nice life eating lies, and pretending your happy with the way life is, u conformed mindless sheeple. bitches like you make me have so little faith in our race. you would jump in front of a transport if you were told to by someone eith higher authority. heres the thing, ALWAYS QUESTION AUTHORITY
@kubassekzion Wrong, dude. My life's awesome! I don't need stinky crap like pot to be happy. As for today's youth: a country full of unemployed potheads? That can't be a good thing. That's why I say today's youth need to get serious about life. This has nothing to do with the questioning of authority.
@SnowbirdFlock Smoking pot doesnt make one de motivated. that is a stereo type fed to the people by the goverment. have you seen reefer madness? your agreeing with that... i agree with the un employment. but that doesnt have n e thing to do with pot. there are many people that smoke pot that are highly successful and bring lots of benefits to their communities. saying all pot heads are unemployed and un motivated is a judgement, a judgement that can be easily compatred to racism.
-------> we are all one. what we look like doesnt mean shit does it? what we do doesnt either, as lo9ng as we are not hurting any one physically or mentally. how can u stereo type a group of people like that? u may nopt need pot to make u happy. but im sure u need something... i dont judge u for what that is, so dont judge me. or any other human being who makes the choice to inhale.
@SnowbirdFlock I'm a 17 year old Canadian. I've graduated highschool and am going to post seconday next fall for four years to get my bachelors degree in architectural technology. I have a job as a line cook, and work very hard at it. I pay taxes so lazy pathetic excuses for a life adults can collect their welfare. Some of them quite similar to yourself in that they are closed minded, old fashioned, and uneducated. I have a lot going for me and I use marijuana recreationally. Alright, "dude"
@canascot02 I remember you! You're a fairly nice guy (basically!), and I'm glad you're doing well, unlike the huge majority of pot-users I've seen. I just got back from Europe, and the young people there don't do drugs, like pot. They're motivated by a desire to work, not by a desire to "chill".
@SnowbirdFlock Where abouts in Europe did you go. The marijuana laws are pretty relaxed over there, for instance it's sold and taxed in Amsterdam, Netherlands. In Czech Republic, small amounts are legal for possesion, and not a misdemeanor (15 grams to be precise) In Belgium, authorities don't bother if it's an adult caught. In Germany you won't be fined for possesion. The Danish widely accept it. When I went ot Europe I travelled through Siwtzerland, and Italy, and found it was qutie common.
@SnowbirdFlock Serbia and Romania, hmm haven't been to Eatern Europe. I would like to see some of the east even though most say it's dangerous. I'd like to visit Croatia. Yeah, I know a bit. But when your passionate about something and tired of peaceful, good people being labelled as criminals you make the effort to learn more etc. Also before I tried marijuana I made sure that I knew what I was getting in to.
@canascot02 I'd say SRB & ROM are only dangerous if one were to bring his lawless western behaviours with him. Bringing drugs is not an option. Good for them! But I much prefer life in Canada, I was born & raised as such. But back to the video, I'd never vote ndp again. They couldn't run a popsicle stand, let alone a country.
@SnowbirdFlock Really, wonder why 5 out of the top ten countries for murders per capita are in Eastern Europe, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Russia, Estonia, and following in 11th is yet another Eastern European country, the Ukraine. Keep in mind, I did say Eastern Europe in general, not jusy Serbia and Romania. Really, you are prohibited from bringing drugs. So like, alcohol, tobacco, tylenol? Did you know dextromethorphan, an antituissive which has a great addictive potential (cont.)
@SnowbirdFlock is found in Tylenol. Really, I respect your opinion, I just don't understand it. Marijuana is not addicitve, you can not overdose, it is not carcinogenic. Tell me one single negative thing about using it, and for god's sake don't say motivation, because that is the individuals fault. As for your criticism towards the NDP, I have a question, how do you know they can't run the country if they've never had the chance. NDP has never been in power. I
@canascot02 Well, I'm bored of this. If you want to have won this, fine. I never intended to win a debate here. But I'm not convinced this stuff is healthy, I don't think I ever could be. Especially since many studies say it's unhealthy. Plus it makes a person hallucinate, and everyone agrees breathing in smoke is harmful. Those 2 facts pretty much convince me. Good day.
@SnowbirdFlock I didn't want to win as you put it, I simply wanted to educate you on the topic. Sure, many studies may state that it is unhealthy, and many state that it is. The ones that are against generally are funded in part by the alcohol industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and the tobbaco industry. What that equates to is that people know it would be a threat to these industries, for instance marijuana provides a safe, effective, all natural alternative to pharmaceuticals such as (cont)
@SnowbirdFlock Desoxyn manufactured by Lundbeck Pharmaceuticals Inc. Do you want to know what Desoxyn is? It's methamphetimine approved by the US food and drug administration for the treatment of ADHD and obesity. Sad really, they use meth on kids with ADHD. I'd hope you'd agree with me that meth is far more dangerous than the plant, marijuana. It goes to show that your perfect government isn't so perfect after all, and what they really care about isn't you but that these mega corporations(cont)
@SnowbirdFlock turn a profit. Secondly, it makes you have minor non-visual halucinations. So minor the worst would be hearing someone laugh... so harmful, eh? As for your second fact, I said that I use marijuana, I never said I smoke it. You can use a fat like butter to absorb it with heat and bake with it and cook. In other words I eat weed cookies. By the way they are organic and made with whole weat lol. Lastly, name off one study that says marijuana is unhealthy, not the smoke produced(cont)
@SnowbirdFlock Oh and it has a very nice aroma. I'm so sorry you find it to be as you put it "stinky crap" And I don't 'need' it either, but I choose to use it because I like it.
Your old-fashioned, authoritarian attitudes have long been abandoned as ignorant and outdated. Read some recent studies. Read Cannabis Culture.
You're anti-marijuana and idealize formal education and "most people" say you're "quite smart"? Perhaps at the government boot-camp. Outside, the majority of us who have much more experience than you will have something else to tell you.
Drop the ignorant attitude and truly align yourself with freedom/liberty.
Willful ignorance -- as the years pass, I hope you'll wake up to authoritarianism and stop being the government/police's parrot.
We should not raise our children to respect authority or the system, but to question it. Drop the traditional values -- they are BS. A generation that is suspicious of authority is the key to a freedom-oriented society.
Why hasn't The U.S. National Cancer Institute tested Rick Simpson's Cancer Cure Hemp Oil. Is it lack of personnel (2,100 staff members) or limited financial support (2010 budget of $5.1 Billion dollars)!
@yuteman78 Because marijuana has been stigmatized, people are dumbasses, and because of the papers and plastics industries being afraid of hemp. But the greatest reason is probably because of ignorant dumbasses.
"Breast and Prostate Cancer cells are also sensitive to Cannabinoid-induced antiproliferation (restrict). Regarding the immune system, low doses of Cannabinoids may enhance cell proliferation (spread), whereas high doses of Cannabinoids (Rick Simpson's Cancer Cure Hemp Oil) usually induce growth arrest or apoptosis (cell death)."
Don't vote for Jack, I thought the same, but he just lied to get young people to vote NDP and get him into office, he doesn't really want MJ legal.
Also, Harper seems like a jackass too, he won't legalize, and it seems the MJ laws are getting tougher in Canada.
I thought Canada would lead the way in MJ legalization, but it seems like it will never happen, there's a better chance of it getting legalized in California than in Canada!
What happen to Canada? We used to be a good cool country.
last election I voted NDP, this time im changing my vote back to liberal just to get the conservatives out. ANYTHING is better then a conservative government.
Totally True. Simple fact>>The benifets of Legal marijuana are better then bad reasons. And most of those bad reasons dont make any sense. And what is sense!!!>>sense is the CANADIAN PEOPLE! needing to see THE CORUPTION!! on this issue.
FELLOW CANADIANS>>>>work together to get this done...TALK ABOUT IT(LEARN ABOUT IT)... DONT JUST SIT THEIR!!! .Marijuana should be legal!!!!PERIOD
I'm like you-live in Canada, don't smoke marijuana. However I say legalize it and let marijuana users pay for our healthcare through taxes. Its a free ride for us non-users. I also don't believe legalization will increase usage.
JACK LAYTON - THE CORNHOLE KING OF ONTARIO , PASSING THE BUCKS ! and heading for the pot stocks.
SHOVE IT UP YOUR RUSTY CORNHOLE JACK ! WHAT DO YOU CARE , THE WATER YOU DRINK IS FULL OF TOILETPAPER FIBRES ANYWAYS EH? KEEPS THE CORNHOLE TIGHT FOR ALL THOSE LATENIGHT MEETINGS WITH OTHER MEN EH? DOES THE WIFE KNOW YOU USE YOUR CORNHOLE TOO ?
Get a few cops high on pot , and pussy becomes so much more enlightening eh? To the point of changing the law. A typical cop's anthology to get a pay raise - buy some pot , forget owning anything - and fuck all the pussy you can for government assistances , even from the same sex.
Jack Layton , the king of "USE IT" with his Liberal buddies. Why is it Jack , that you couldn't even secure the words within the GM contracts? Because you are a boss wannabe? Now you wanna take the crack trail to China eh? Fuck You Jack Layton , and anybody who supports you !
morum67 : I see you have responded to terrorism by agreeing to say something so stupid. Take a look at the Liberal practices of years gone by , and you will see that they believed in allowing just about anything for government workers. It didn't work ! Your name should be moron67. What next , people are entitled because they are consumers or users in Canada. Fuck Canada , ( oh , Canada - go away and be waved off ).
Do some research. Becasue more of your people are coming to Canada for pot so fuck a blutn in it and Smoke up. Wed is better for people atleast we have real freedom. Go shove your jack in your piehole and Smoke Up.
prohibition subsidizes organized crime. if you support prohibition, you support the subsidization of organized crime... period. you can't support the former without the latter.
RussLBarth : When you can't hold back the tide of crime during the "stoned years" , don't call your local hydro because you are powerless to help from being killed. You live in the dark , and look at all the tiny little lights on electronics equipment , don't you ? Fuck that , and fuck Canada for having been so stupid in the past as to actually expect stoners to care what happens. Subsidize , that's a laugh coming from phonepets and curbhugging housebuilders. Like you were building it.
The D.A.R.E. generation here is fighting back and saying NO to such idiocies. DARE has been vastly counterproductive, and it is one of many failed anti-drug policies.
I am an American, and I support legalization, taxation and regulation. Prohibition is insane! There are plenty of great anti-drug war groups here in the country, like SSDP (which has chapters in US, Canada, Britain and Nigeria), NORML, MPP, and Drug Policy Alliance. We're educating people, and slowly but surely, we will get it decriminalized. The prohibitionists will NOT win in the long run! I sure hope guys like Jack Layton and the NDP can actually get something done on this issue up there
@whoo689 if prohybitions dont win it will be thanks to smoking hippies like you, admit it you just wanna be a drugadict withouth getting in trouble, thats all
@PemtiumVideo Yeah actually. If I want to do drugs, it should be MY choice what I can or cannot put in my body. Just like some like to have a glass of wine after work or a ciggy, some people want to have a snort/puff ..etc. The gov't's role should be: To educate the citizens (TRUTHFULLY) about the effects of certain drugs and then leave the choice to the adult individual. The 'crime' should be doing activities you shouldn't be doing intoxicated (harming OTHERS).
Colombia is not the USA's biggest trading partner was it?
They can't win in Iraq. What are they gonna do if the face a high tech actual military? Would they risk a Canada - Russia protection alliance? I think not.
There would be some issues come up. However, military/trade embargo action would not take place.
With the state the Americans are in right now, they would fear to reprimand us for anything. Remember, we have a symbiotic relationship. Without us buying from them just over pot, we'll see them go into a depression before we hit full on recession
He might not be the greatest leader that Canada could ever have...But i think we should give him a shot. There have only been 2 political parties running Canada since it became a country. The liberals and the PCs. We should give the NDP a chance i mean before they were called the NDP, Sir Tommy Douglas had an idea to make healthcare free for everyone and anyone. A great idea, but they never got total power. So, having the new democrats run the country, really wouldnt hurt us at all. Weed Rules.
in the words of the great bob marley "Herb is a plant!" I love smoking that ganga green and I'm glad to see Jack Layton support decriminalization, however I was very disapointed by his decision to remove Dana Larson as a Candiate, it very hypocritcal of him and it almost detered me from voting NDP.
for some reason, this video made me think differently about this jackass. Im only 14, and i dont know much about this stupid political stuff, But I was going for harper (only because parents were), But for some reason i like this guy now.
Don't be an idiot and vote for whomever your parents voted for. Think for yourself and develop your own opinions. Of course I know when I was 14 I didn't care much for politics either, but you will as you get older, at least I hope so.
Careful here - he thinks it should be decriminalized ... that is VERY different from legalization. In other words - possession will still be considered "illegal". But instead you get a possession ticket, instead of going to jail. Selling pot would still be illegal and criminal.
Although voting for NDP is a good alternative, remember that a vote for Layton is a vote for a Harper Minority
Vote Liberal - it's the only logical choice to remove the Cons from power.
libral party is only concerned about money, it works in a capitalist mindset, but all of the deabates i've went to, all they can talk about is bringing in new plants, and making the smaller cities grow, which would just add polution and the many other problems that comes with having more people. As with the NDP they are a "For the People" party, which is why they have my vote, and just about always will.
I live in BC weed is cheap, and strong. All my friends are stoned 24 hours a day, they are not creative at all and they live at home doing burger flipping jobs so all they have to pay for is weed. As for creativity that quality doesn't out way hard working sober people getting an education and achieving careers.
Let me tell you first hand that most of the really creative, motivated, hard-working, honest, well paid, highly talented, people I know are pot heads.
The problem isn't the weed, it's your do nothing 'friends'. If it wasn't marijuana that was holding them back at dead end jobs it would be the next available alternative.

@SnowbirdFlock actually i am 45. and i am not a pot head. i am just aware of the fact that you have been sadly conformed to believe what ever your goverment tells you to. u have a nice life eating lies, and pretending your happy with the way life is, u conformed mindless sheeple. bitches like you make me have so little faith in our race. you would jump in front of a transport if you were told to by someone eith higher authority. heres the thing, ALWAYS QUESTION AUTHORITY

@kubassekzion Wrong, dude. My life's awesome! I don't need stinky crap like pot to be happy. As for today's youth: a country full of unemployed potheads? That can't be a good thing. That's why I say today's youth need to get serious about life. This has nothing to do with the questioning of authority.

@SnowbirdFlock Smoking pot doesnt make one de motivated. that is a stereo type fed to the people by the goverment. have you seen reefer madness? your agreeing with that... i agree with the un employment. but that doesnt have n e thing to do with pot. there are many people that smoke pot that are highly successful and bring lots of benefits to their communities. saying all pot heads are unemployed and un motivated is a judgement, a judgement that can be easily compatred to racism.

@SnowbirdFlock I'm a 17 year old Canadian. I've graduated highschool and am going to post seconday next fall for four years to get my bachelors degree in architectural technology. I have a job as a line cook, and work very hard at it. I pay taxes so lazy pathetic excuses for a life adults can collect their welfare. Some of them quite similar to yourself in that they are closed minded, old fashioned, and uneducated. I have a lot going for me and I use marijuana recreationally. Alright, "dude"

@canascot02 I remember you! You're a fairly nice guy (basically!), and I'm glad you're doing well, unlike the huge majority of pot-users I've seen. I just got back from Europe, and the young people there don't do drugs, like pot. They're motivated by a desire to work, not by a desire to "chill".

@SnowbirdFlock Where abouts in Europe did you go. The marijuana laws are pretty relaxed over there, for instance it's sold and taxed in Amsterdam, Netherlands. In Czech Republic, small amounts are legal for possesion, and not a misdemeanor (15 grams to be precise) In Belgium, authorities don't bother if it's an adult caught. In Germany you won't be fined for possesion. The Danish widely accept it. When I went ot Europe I travelled through Siwtzerland, and Italy, and found it was qutie common.

@SnowbirdFlock I didn't want to win as you put it, I simply wanted to educate you on the topic. Sure, many studies may state that it is unhealthy, and many state that it is. The ones that are against generally are funded in part by the alcohol industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and the tobbaco industry.

Your old-fashioned, authoritarian attitudes have long been abandoned as ignorant and outdated. Read some recent studies. Read Cannabis Culture.
You're anti-marijuana and idealize formal education and "most people" say you're "quite smart"? Perhaps at the government boot-camp. Outside, the majority of us who have much more experience than you will have something else to tell you.
Drop the ignorant attitude and truly align yourself with freedom/liberty.

Don't vote for Jack, I thought the same, but he just lied to get young people to vote NDP and get him into office, he doesn't really want MJ legal.
Also, Harper seems like a jackass too, he won't legalize, and it seems the MJ laws are getting tougher in Canada.
I thought Canada would lead the way in MJ legalization, but it seems like it will never happen, there's a better chance of it getting legalized in California than in Canada!

Careful here - he thinks it should be decriminalized ... that is VERY different from legalization. In other words - possession will still be considered "illegal". But instead you get a possession ticket, instead of going to jail. Selling pot would still be illegal and criminal.
Although voting for NDP is a good alternative, remember that a vote for Layton is a vote for a Harper Minority
Vote Liberal - it's the only logical choice to remove the Cons from power.
