The problem is that the drugs we’re talking about make people out-of-their-minds. And that’s their whole appeal. How do you legally develop and test drugs that even in small doses get you so wasted that you’re a threat to the safety of yourself and others? And as we’ve seen, if we provide drugs that offer 70 per cent as intoxicating but far safer, they’ll be passed over for ones that get you more wasted.

This I find somewhat funny.
I went to High School downtown and took the C-Train there and back every day. If I'd cracked a beer on the C-Train, or lit up a cigarette, I'd have been tackled immediately.
But now hard drugs is totally cool?
