VANCOUVER - Before he addressed a conference on this city's
staggering drug problem, Gary Johnson, the Governor of New Mexico,
went for a walk through the Downtown Eastside, where addicts
openly smoke crack cocaine and shoot up heroin.
"Those people, if they were in the United States, would be in jail,"
Mr. Johnson would say later.
But what he saw in Vancouver's streets, where illicit drugs are
openly sold and consumed, didn't convince him to soften his message.
Mr. Johnson is an advocate of legalizing all drugs.
