Is Canada Going to Pot?

[jessem98]

I recently read this article and found it very intresting, very long, but intresting. It discusses how Canada's law on cannabis came to be starting at 1908.

There are some VERY shocking things to read in this article, as i was fuming when i read them. One of them includes a quote from a judicial officer who wrote a series of articles for Mclean's magazine under the name "Janey Canuck" shows off her unbiased views on marijuana. Quote:

"The [marijuana] addict loses all sense of moral responsibility. Addicts to this drug, while under its influence, are immune to pain, and could be severely injured without having any realization to their condition. While in this condition they becoming [sic] raving maniacs and are liable to kill or indulge in any form of violence to other persons, using the most savage methods of cruelty without, as said before, any sense of moral responsibility."

The article is found here: http://www.cohenhighley.com/articles/crimlaw003.htm
