Read my Cap News story: Nicholson says no to legalizing marijuana

One of the neat things about my job is I get invited to things like a fundraising dinner for the local Conservative MP (though I actually only get to come for dessert, coffee and the keynote speaker). Last year, the speaker was Defense Minister Peter MacKay. This year it was Justice Minister Rob Nicholson and a heavily partisan tough on crime message. The Conservatives certainly know how to act tough.
