Prime Minister Justin Trudeau acknowledged this bit of information knowing full well how the comments section of Canada's boring papers would be lit up with a deluge of nasty comments.  I keep wondering how Stephen Harper would have responded had one of his children been charged with possession. Would he want his child to have a criminal record? Would he pull strings? Had I a child who had been charged, I certainly would have done anything in my power to get my child off the hook. That's why the law has to be changed. So stop pointing your hypocritical fingers.
