Throwback Thursday

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

This 1962 photo of traffic at the intersection of Manchester, High and Lichfield streets is a reminder of how different the city used to look. It shows the Majestic Theatre on the right and the Canterbury Building Society building in the centre, on the corner of High and Manchester streets.

THAT CANNABIS DEBATE....

Robert from Bryndwr

I am in two minds on the topic; firstly I am going to vote for it but, secondly, I have reservations about the probability of a capitalistic and social incremental creep where big money and big business will, over time, eventually, buy their way with politicians, their political Parties' funding and government. With the ever growing familiarity of the presence of cannabis in our daily lives, they will want to be permitted to advertise their big brand name cannabis product on the jerseys of the All Blacks and on the backs of the Christchurch red buses..... Advertising to young people who will be sold on the idea that they need to get stoned to be socially acceptable; a necessary social lubricant just like alcohol advertising in New Zealand...

DANGER!! DANGER!! DANGER!!
