There is quite a controversy going on right
now with literally hundreds of people all over
south- western British Columbia picking
‘magic’ mushrooms. Farmers and other
property owners are upset with trespassers
looking for mushrooms on their property.
Some forty people have been sent to hospital
with mushroom poisoning. The police are
frustrated because it is not illegal to possess
psilocybin mushrooms.
Today’s question is:

Met

‘Should possession
of ‘magic’ mushrooms
be illegal?"

Bob Forsyth
North Vancouver

I don't think they
should be made illegal. It
would be impossible to
enforce any law against
them because they grow
naturally everywhere. |
would like to see
literature made available
so people can identify
them better.

Rob Thurston
North Vancouver

Really, it should be
illegal to possess them,
but since they grow all
over the place, how can
you stop people from
eating them.

Brias MacKay

Because of the con-
siderable danger of
picking the wrong kind
and possibly even dying.
yes, tt should be illegal to
possess them

Yes, I ctmnk tt should
be illegal to peck them for
