A few years ago there was an initiative to keep film work in Hollywood and the Canadian Film industry has been suffering ever since.

Now with Proposition 19 they are trying to destroy the BC economy!!

Legalized marijuana in California would have a profound impact across North America, with prices plummeting and jobs lost. In British Columbia alone, experts say the move would wipe out about $2-billion in exports and 20,000 jobs.

Local price of good stuff is down from 250-400/oz to $75. I predict that the measure will fail by a significant margin.
