In a world of spin and confusion, there’s never been a more important time to support independent journalism in Canberra.
If you trust our work online and want to enforce the power of independent voices, I invite you to make a small contribution.
Every dollar of support is invested back into our journalism to help keep citynews.com.au strong and free.
Thank you,
Ian Meikle, editor
Re: Drug legislation. Dear Sir/Madam, Ros Thomas (letters 25th Nov) has the wrong end of the stick.Taking prohibited drugs is still illegal, and if the police find people under the influence of these drugs, they will confiscate the drugs and refer the offender to the courts.
