To Ban or Legalize?

Ban or Legalize - an interesting new series that consults Canada's experts on a slew of controversial issues in Canadian law reform.

Here's how this the series introduces itself.

Ban/Legalize: 13 Proposed Changes to Canadian Law

Should Canada ban the niqab? Legalize file-sharing? Ban bars? Decriminalize pot?

A society is shaped by what its laws permit or prohibit. With that in mind, we asked legislators and artists, activists and entrepreneurs to identify one thing that should be banned or legalized but currently is not.

Thanks to Cathy Li of The Mark for bringing it to our attention.

    That's fascinating! I'm going to have to go through the articles in detail. I've always personally subscribed to the "minimal harm" model on these issues, so it will be interesting to read the arguments.
