CANNABIS AT 18

Some so-called experts say the human brain keeps growing until age 25
and a CTV poll found a majority of people said the legal age for
marijuana should be 21 or 25

This does not make sense to me. In Canada, you can join the military
at 18, get a driver's licence at 16 and vote at 18.

A lot of kids 18 and younger are smoking marijuana. Bought legally, it
will be safer than from the black market. Government, instead of
organized crime, should be profiting from the sale of cannabis. Drug
stores are the best place to sell marijuana and the legal age should
be 18.

Good luck to the Liberals in the spring, when they try to legalize
marijuana. The Tories and NDP are so jealous of Justin Trudeau, who is
so popular that a lot of people want to snap selfies with him, that
they will do anything they can to halt progress.
