I wonder how long before someone smashes your rose coloured glasses. You're hoping for change from those who benefit the most from maintaining the status quo.

Ticketing might just be worse for many and lead to jail. The problem with ticketing is that that is what essentially happens now ... you just need to go to court for the fine to be established.

Tickets will lead to no shows in court and that leads to jail. Marc probably knows that all too well, so many people in Sask jails are there simply because of 'fail to appears'.

Besides, as we have all seen, unless you are totally unable to process information, the NDP are about as trustworthy as a bag of snakes.

If you are not helping the Green Party or the Libertarian Party, you just aren't on the correct page, IMO.

The Green Party?
Don't you cringe when you see or hear "Senator" Elizabeth May?
There MUST be more involved in choosing a leader than just smoking dope.
There are times, when I come here, that I'd bet Hitler could win an election if the votes were held here (CC) and he promised to legalized dope.

I do cringe when I hear that because it's one of the many lies cooked up by artards at places like CTV Globemedia. Roy Green was trying to crow about that and when he gave May some airtime, she unequivocally refuted the claim that there was ever any plan to put her in the senate.

Cheers

Since Jack "off" Layton came out against legalization I will no longer vote for NDP. I am going Green now. I suggest all you follow and Email the jerk telling him so!

Just to be clear, all Jack Layton said was that the NDP has not supported "legalization" of marijuana. This is true as the resolution passed calls for "decriminalization".

We will be introducing a comprehensive marijuana and drug policy resolution at the coming NDP convention this August in an effort to get the party policy strengthened into something beyond "decriminalization".

Thanks Dana for clearing that up. It still doesn't sound the same as the last I heard it. Maybe legalization isn't the answer but I'd like to see it treated like alcohol. You want to brew a few in your basement you should feel free to share it with your friends. Along with the beer and wine that supplied supplemental CO2.

I've been voting an NDP ticket since we got them in the first time in BC. I still vote them up here in the Great White North even though it's pretty much a lost cause. My wife and I were even scrutineers the last election and I still have them pulling a small donation out of my bank every month.

I joined eNDProhibition when they first started up and haven't heard squat from them.

I think us stoners are our own worst enemies. Look what happened in Alaska. Get the weed then don't bother getting off your blazed butts to keep it. Does not bode well.

Harper has to go. We just can't go down the same path the US has been following these last few decades. We just can't.

The deaths in Mexico and the increasing gang violence in my hometown digs of Vandsterdam and other major centers in North and South America can only lead the sighted to conclude that the "War on Drugs" is even more counter-productive than alcohol prohibition was.

The big, bad corporations that have fueled all this grief are on their collective knees begging for solvency.

I say. Lets kick 'em when they're down!

Just my $0.02 worth.

What was resolved??

"Marijuana legalization resolution passed by Saskatchewan NDP, November 2006"

What did this accomlish?? It was illegal to smoke and grow in 2005 and it still is in 2011. What resolution?

Instead of clouding the real issues of political reform with the B.S., Why doesn't the NDP stand up and admit to all the crap that goes on and commit to changing the system. They would start a voting revaloution if they truly meant it.

join the party and lead the revolution! you've got vision, however myopic and you've got spittle a plenty but you don't know jack shit about how to get a political issue like cannabis to become party policy.

you are a non voter harperite! a non participant in democracy. people around the world are dying to vote. you've got your self induced misery as an excuse.

Mr. Larsen is a visionary.
