Ice4fun 78407 Report post Posted April 4, 2014 Well written article.... i fully agree ad would mist Canadians.... the problem is that Stephen Harper gas never let logic or common sense deter him from his ideological views in the past... the only hope is that he concludes passing a new law will negatively impact him in the next election so that he talks tough but does not actually act. He could do something like the Victims Rights announcement yesterday... something that let's him beat his drum for his core supporters but does not really have any teeth to enforce the rights he announced. Just my opinion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He could do something like the Victims Rights announcement yesterday... something that let's him beat his drum for his core supporters but does not really have any teeth to enforce the rights he announced. Just my opinion. This is why we need more articles written from the perspective of debunking Joy Smith's ideological claims. Hopefully the more the general public are educated on the true nature of this industry, the more opinion polls will sway in favour of decriminalization. That said, I agree completely with what your statement - if Harper perceives that this issue may hurt him come election time, he may elect to stay far far away from implementing anything concrete where new laws are concerned.
