Re: EDITORIAL – Experiment in decriminalization isn’t worth continuing

Cannot agree more with your recent CFJC editorial. The whole experiment may be well founded in concept, however seems to have had an increasingly negative effect on our community and the perception of the ongoing problem within our citizenship.

My Dr. has lamented that to prescribe a more effective pain medicine has increased the paperwork adversely for patients but drugs for the addicted population is given freely.
