As Canada's prime minister Chretien has done some good things, and also some very stupid things, but he certainly has a flare for saying stuff that irks certain groups. I found this one very amusing.
During a recent interview, the soon-to-retire PM quipped, "perhaps I will try (marijuana) when it will no longer be criminal.
"I will have my money for my fine and a joint in the other hand."

And by the way, his English may not seem so good, but Chretien doesn't suffer from any sort of mental impairment (at least no more than any other politician) it's just that French is his first language and he has a very strong accent.
