Patriotic Krank

The news in Canada in the last few days is crystal meth. A federal law has been passed to make the maximum sentence of making and trafficking in Methamphetamine to life imprisonment. This is a meaningless cynical gesture in the government’s part. As the courts are reluctant to impost heavy sentences for drug offences now, what makes the government think that they will come anywhere near life sentence in the future? Maybe they should take the opposite road by promoting meth as a Canadian solution for cocaine and heroine. Think about it, meth is produced domestically instead of imported by criminal cartels; meth is cheap and that makes it unnecessary for addicts to commit property crimes to support their habits; and when meth heads try to cook their own crystals, chances are that they will just blow themselves up. It will solve much of the complaints society has on drug users by getting ride of most of the nuisances. Plus, meth is perhaps the best diet drug there is. Is a whole society of cranked up skinny people just what will make us truly Hollywood North? We can even have a new industry with vast international clientele: weight loss through Krank. That certainly is the ticket.
