Finally listened to this show last nite and was disappointed not to find the next one! Did you just give up on this stream? I wanted to add to the bit on Canadian history on marijuana. While I was in university, (1968-72) many of us were very pleased that the Liberal govt had research done on drugs, known as the Le Dain Commission. We were very happy about the conclusions:

"The final report recommended that cannabis be removed from the Narcotic Control Act and that the provinces implement controls on possession and cultivation, similar to those governing the use of alcohol."

Unfortunately, it was shelved and the changes never came about, thanks largely to pressure from our neighbour to the south, and cowardly politicians.

Thank you Gentlemen! I appreciate the support.

Rick, excellent suggestions.

Great stuff. you should have given a way for people to e-mail their MPP or something. A link or something. try to make some change Steve.
Just a thought.

I really like the intro man.

I dug it, especially the intro. Maybe we should do one like this for the Reality Tour.
