Pot Less Harmful Than Alcohol - Canadians
A Canadian Senate Committee on illegal drugs released a report today which states that marijuana is less harmful than alcohol, and should be regulated in the same way.
In the story, Senator Pierre Claide Nolin is quoted saying,
"Scientific evidence overwhelmingly indicates that cannabis is substantially less harmful than alcohol and should be treated not as a criminal issue but as a social and public health issue."
When dissenter's raised their voices, Sen. Nolin accused them of 'harshing his mellow', and then added, "But anyone who is caught selling that Saskatchewan ditch-weed that tastes like Mister Clean and sawdust should be locked up." He then ajourned the press conference for a munchie break.

Hi! I am not a regular pot smoker nor do I know that much about it. As I have known people who do and they are extremely healthy and always will be. I have did research on this subject and it is not addictive, and does not make you lose your memory, it only paralize it for a few hours.
