I had been receiving mail from the NDP for over a year and always included a request for a stand on the war on drugs and marijuana legalization.Last week I was told that the party supported marijuana legalization and an end to prison as the answer to drug (in a letter)enforcement.Tonight,the party leader denied any such thing and accepted the resignations of two candidates with marijuana reform pasts.It is obvious what has gone on here.They are attempting to enlist people from the legalization movement and denying any ties when the subject is brought to light.Such cowardice is the reason the war on drugs is still going strong.Parties like the ruling conservatives come out in favor of harsher punishment and a more draconian approach and those that want the war ended are too afraid to say so.Stephen Harper is the most anti drug politician ever.He denies all the science and relies on biblical morality to form his drug policy.Giuliani's recent trip here is no coincidence.We are in the middle of a very close election and the party that usually opposes the Harper right is is ruins.It's leader is confused and speaks unintelligible English.To top it off he's most unpopular in french Quebec.He's also pushing a carbon tax at a time we have all time high fuel costs and a crashing economy.Brilliant.I would encourage any Canadians that read this missive to go to facebook and sign up to the vote transfer site and send your vote to a location where it has the best chance of electing a Green party candidate.Do this by agreeing to vote either Liberal or NDP in your riding.For pot smokers this election is the most vital in all my years(43)of voting.The major media is running horror stories on drugs.Tonight they ran one on the danger of your dog dying from exposure to pot.Does anyone know if this has ever happened.I would love to be able to expose this as another Canwest Global lie.
