Stephen Harper Talks About Marijuana on YouTube

CANNABIS CULTURE - Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper answered questions this evening in a YouTube-sponsored poll and interview where marijuana was the #1 issue. As expected, the PM rehashed the same old tired arguments in defense of his destructive cannabis policies.

Sorry Steve, we do buy from our neighbours.....doctors, dentists, lawyers....hardly the international cartel you refer to. Most of us wish you would just relax and have a puff. Drugs aren't bad, you are....but perhaps with a little help, you might become a better human being....

I want a politician in power who understand what marijuana is, and not group it in with "other drugs".

Comparing weed to cocaine is like comparing coffee to moonshine... -_-

[mark mcclean]

i would love to ask, situation comes up where Harpers kid gets busted with weed. what does he do as a politician and what does he do as a father?

[ravencraven56]

[Stiffonda Reefah]

How can you regret something that you never did Stephen?

Google: Stephen Harper + Ray Novak

i wonder if he views the multi-billion dollar medical marijuana industry of the Canadian government in the same destructive, poverty stricken, crime filled light as the one he described here arising from 'all' drug trades

[Lukas Coburn]

I can't imagine my kids smoking cannabis, I would way rather them drink lol god this guys funny

[mrryan12r]

All the violence he talks about is caused by the drug being illegal. Who is responsible for that? Certainly not the people, We all want his ass gone!

Most of what you're saying is guessing, and you didn't refute my point. If i buy weed from a big corporation how exactly am i sponsoring the drug cartels? Yeah makes no sense

[Abe Fehr]

Because your local hippie probably won't offer the special lemon haze anymore. I can't just buy a tobacco plant and grow my own varieties, and weed would probably be controlled in the same way so big corporations would be growing the weed instead. Even if he could grow it, the hippie would also have to tax it heavily and would need an expensive license to sell you that weed, making it unlikely that he would be a dealer once weed is legalized

[alliencedful]

Sounds like bullshit to me the only reason the cartel has this monopoly is because of their violence and the illegality, why would i buy some weed grown in mexico and then smuggled over the border when i can buy my local hippie's special lemon haze.
