Pot-Smoking Dominatrix Jumps Into Election
:bounce:

<snip>

OTTAWA (Reuters) - After a two-year stint delivering papers to Canadian senators, Marijuana Party candidate and career dominatrix Carol Taylor said she has entered the political arena to help ease people's pain.

Taylor, who says she smokes marijuana to cope with a painful neurological disorder, has whipped up excitement in her Ottawa district, despite being given little chance of beating the incumbent Liberal Party candidate in the June 28 election.

Her campaign workers left postcard leaflets on Wednesday in mailboxes featuring Taylor with one breast exposed under the banner "Can the cannabis crackdown."

She is fighting to legalize the use of marijuana for medicinal and personal use. The Liberals proposed a bill to decriminalize the personal use of pot but the proposal died when the election was called on May 23.

13. For a minute there
I thought that this was an offshoot of the American Green Party. Looks like it's the Canadian variety though.
