B.C. eyes how to cut court system costs | Vancouver 24 hrs

B.C. eyes how to cut court system costs | Vancouver 24 hrsBC eyes how to cut court costs/Van24hrs.The single thing that BC has never tried is to drop drug prohibition.Of all inmates in the old BC pen,back in the 70's 80's and 90's,over 70% were there on directly related drug crimes.Of the other 30%,many would never have committed the crime had they not been high on drugs or alcohol.The WC crime in BC has always gotten a pass from governments.They spend all their time and budgets chasing the poor and the addicted while our stock market is infamous all over the world for fraud,ponzi schemes and for fraudsters who are always two steps ahead of the law.The Harper tories use cases like the hockey coach pedophile to slash pension reform and cost many elderly ex inmates thousands when their NEW legislation closed down all those fly by night pardon outfits.Perhaps Mr.Harper will refund my 1500 dollars I took from an OAP and lost when all phone numbers I was given were cancelled.Prohibition and laws against any use of some drugs is the root of most of the cases backing up our courts.Harper has wasted millions fighting the few reforms people are trying to put in place.Please remember on Oct19 that my birthday is Oct 20.All I want for a present for my 67th is an end to Stephen Harper.Just add up the millions Harper spent on anti cannabis,anti injection sites and needle exchanges,all things the majority of Canadians said they were in favor of.Harper?He said he didn't care how much money he spent fighting harm reduction measures?Perhaps we've found one cause of why the courts are so overloaded and overworked.
