As long as it isn't impairing their performance to any significant degree, I don't care what they do. There are documented cases of people, including at least one physician, managing to have successful careers while using significant amounts of drugs and even living with addictions.

I agree, but only if they are smoking marijuana. I smoke that myself on a regular basis, and believe that it helps me more than anything. However, hard drugs, I do not want in my government office.

I believe that hard drugs alter one's perception too much, and not to mention that it's listed as illegal under Canada's Criminal Code. Which brings to me to my belief on why Marijuana is such a controversial issue, I think most of our politicians are smoking it.

True uncle, not everyone has done cocaine, or other hard drugs, now smoking a fattie, well guilty as charged...although that does lead to how come I never did hard drugs 8O

So it was hypocrisy that paved George Bush's way to the White House?

That and faulty intelligence.

I guess if the far far left Separatists want a self admitted druggie to lead their party even more to the radical left, they will get their wish...

Actually, the far far left seperatists would have preferred Pauline Marois than Boisclair. They consider him a bit too neoliberal and not enough to the left...

But from a US point of view, I guess any Quebec politician is leftist...

I'm still not sure what to think of Boisclair myself. He's a bit too much like the typical poltician in my opinion... Fake smile always ready, evasive answers to questions... But I'm giving him his chance... He has a HUGE task ahead of him... Unite his party, win the next elections in which he is suppose to promise a referendum, and then win this referendum...

The next 2 years are are very important for the sovereignty cause. If Canadian political dynamics don't change much (liberal minority government by default), I think Quebecers will be quite interested in sovereignty.

Answer - so what you are suggesting is that it is not the use of cocaine that should keep one from public office, but being honest about having used it?

Alcohol is involved in more than half of fatal accidents in North America. So, although alcohol is a highly addictive, dangerous substance, since it is legal, it is alright for the US president to drive his nation into the ditch

Well, Ocean those are the official facts based on official military records. Unless you state evidence otherwise, there is no denying the president's exceptional military service.

Answer - When you control the strings, you can make the puppet dance.

Bush was a coward, hiding in the National Guard when there was a need for 'top' pilots in a police action in Viet Nam. He even hid from National Guard service. All of that got obfuscated with threats and money.

Isn't it a coincidence that Hitler altered his war service record when he came into control in Germany? Isn't it a coincidence that it was Nazi money that financed George Bush's education. Isn't it a pity that Bush is now spreading fascism around the world.

Now in Quebec there is a young, energized, openly gay new leader at the helm of the PQ. That he did cocaine is not a problem. That he is honest is to his credit. I would hear his ideas. I may even move to Quebec to vote for him. Love it around St. Jerome. Maybe a nice little farm. Free! Free at last!

georgie punk.........has had his internal wires malfunctioning for years....... to him the truth is cowardice and as good as a lie. A lie is the truth.......or HIS ( the emperor wanna be) version there of. In his simple mind....... he is all power, can do what he wants.. without regard to creed, law or humanity. And the sheeple-america fall for his crap each time. The Roman Emperors should have been so lucky with such a devoted following.

What I do think however, is that if someone in parliment, or another substantially important position, is doing any type of illegal drug while in office, should no longer be allowed to serve.

As long as it isn't impairing their performance to any significant degree, I don't care what they do.

Ahh .. so you encourage breaking the law, Rev. Last time I checked, hard drugs like cocaine are illegal in both the US and Canada.

No one is above the law, and surely not our elected officials. Condoning this type of wreckless behavior sends the wrong message that it is ok to break the law.

Get real and quit splitting hairs. A Tums is hardly what? - speed? You are only making yourself look foolish and suspicious.

If I had Alzheimer's, I'm sure you would find a way to make fun of me. Just because.

RE: PQ Has New Leader ...

Ya know... considering people get all talkative and lose that filter between brain and mouth when on cocaine... I say all politicians should do the chit before question period as a perfect way to cut through their BS. Besides... not many politicians have been accused of having good judgement anyway :p

Seriously though... the people have spoken and if they want a former druggie to be their leader then that's their choice, now isn't it?!

I encourage changing the law to reflect reality. Having politicians that openly admit to having used drugs is a step in that direction.

No one is above the law, and surely not our elected officials. Condoning this type of wreckless behavior sends the wrong message that it is ok to break the law.

Like your president being so drunk he drove into a hedge? That's illegal.

If I had Alzheimer's, I'm sure you would find a way to make fun of me. Just because.

Why not? I make fun of my dad. What else can you do with a guy who mows the same patch of grass all day every day? 8O

Also - oddly enough, not one single office at the Alabama airbase where Bush supposedly finished his military service has any recollection of ever seeing him there.

RE: PQ Has New Leader ... Admitted Using Hardcore Illegal Dr

As someone with an accreditation in Empirical Pharmacology, I reckon I'm somewhat uninterested in the drug habits of any person who doesn't carry a firearm or operate potentially deadly machinery for a living. If he can lead his party while whacked on Colombian flake, then more power to him. He certainly won't be less coherent than Bush or more unreliable than Paul Martin. Hell, he might even be entertaining.

In any case, it's supposedly in his past, so it's doubly irrelevant.

As an aside, one thing that really turned me off Bill Clinton was that he admitted he didn't know how to operate so simple a device as a joint.

Cool accreditation. I know a few people who could claim degrees in Random Experimental Pharmacology and General Weirdness, but nobody who actually knows what they are doing. 8O
