    I guess that no one should start a business in town? Or since Midge has only been here for 3-4 years it is not worth her time? Is it replacing the movie gallery? No it is not, it is something completely different. I am not sure what your point is gimpyfish. Midge’s Mags is not new, there have been forum topics on this subject since March on ourfernie.com and Midge has been thinking about this idea since last September, so this is not some sort of quick fix to fill a void. Midge was going to wait and take her time opening but with the closing of the Movie Gallery her timetable was sped up since she did not want to leave the community without the service of movie rentals. Or have someone else move in and beat her to the punch, so to speak. Hope that answers your questions.

    "As long as it excluded the grow your own, people. Which, I would think growing your own, in it’s own way helps reduce organized crime."

    Good point.

    Like I said, I am not supporting or condoning growing…But I looked at the bill and although may have missed it, did not see anything that would make a distinction between mom and pop, or you average Canadian trying not to give their hard earned dough to some crime syndicate…So if you are ‘Joe Pot Smoker’ who is growing a couple of plants in your closet and you get caught, you go directly to jail and do not pass go. Trafficking to me is a misnomer since Joe could supply his buddies with a couple of joints and that could constitute trafficking…Seems a bit excessive to me. I mean look at the numbers from a recent poll…
