Re: LoLo Pot Shops Raise Parents’ Concern, March 4 front-page story.

When are some people going to relax about the slow, but inevitable move to legalize pot. My wife is a cancer patient and we found both of the Lower Lonsdale dispensaries to be welcoming and informative.

The product is also helpful. The “protect the children” argument is pretty lame when you consider the cold beer and wine store and government liquor store are both in the same neighbourhood. There is no smell of pot near the dispensaries or even inside.

It’s a professional atmosphere with staff concerned about health and well being. It’s 2016 and pot is the least of our drug worries i.e. fentanyl.
