Canada to Decriminalize Pot Possession

The Prime Minister of Canada Wednesday said that the country is ready to decriminalize possession of marijuana:
We will soon introduce legislation to decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana," he told a Liberal party fundraiser. ...."Some might have a criminal record that will be a shadow over his (her) life for years to come," the Prime Minister said. That makes decriminalization important so "young people do not have unnecessary criminal records for the rest of their lives."
