The problem of course is that if drugs were legalized the pharmaceutical companies would charge half as much for them in Canada as in the U.S. Then you'd have the tragic sight of busloads of elderly folks migrating across the border in order to score a hit. Well, that and the fact that we'd have to put up with a whole new set of annoying advertisements... "Troubled by reality? Try Lucium! Lucium is the little pink pill with the big golden glow! Lucium takes the edge off your day, and puts the light in your night! Ask your doctor about Lucium. (Lucium is not for everyone. Consult your doctor before taking Lucium. Side effects of Lucium include bleeding gums, drooling, the sensation of insects crawling all over your body, and periods of intense hunger that can result in weight gain.)" Really, is the ongoing support of a criminal drug-underground that preys on our children and the poorest and most needy among us such a bad thing, if the alternative are more of those pharmaceutical commercials?
