Marc Emery and the Politics of Pot
10.04.07 (12:46 pm)   [edit]
I am of two minds about Marc Emery. On the one hand, his theatrics’ draw attention to the issue. On the other hand, it is talk like this that keeps it a fringe issue. Marc Emery:

"Marijuana won't kill you and we love marijuana. The five million Canadians who use marijuana cherish it like Christians cherish their religion, or a gourmand cherishes good food.”

The advocates of legalization have made great strides over the years and according to an Angus Reid poll released in June 55% of Canadians favor legalization. http://www.angus-reid.com/polls/view/16300" title="http://www.angus-reid.com/polls/view/16300" target="_blank"http://www.angus-reid.com/pol... The next step for such advocates is to convince one or more of Canada's major political parties that it is in their political interest to pursue legalization.
