Trudeau talks pot

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was talking about the legalization of marijuanna and how minorities and people with little means don’t have the option of clearing their names in the justice system.

As an example he used his younger brother Michel who was arrested in 1998 after he was involved in an accident.  The current PM says his father was able to get his brother a good lawyer and help him avoid a criminal record.  He says legalizing grass will help alleviate that disparity.
