FROM PORN TO POLITICS

The self-proclaimed Prince of Porn is on a mission to legalize pot, and he says he'll do what it takes to make it happen, from running for mayor in Maple Ridge to suing the municipality and the provincial government.

William Perry, 28, owner of Guilty Pleasures, an adult entertainment shop in Maple Ridge, is charged with five counts of trafficking a controlled substance and one count of possession for the purpose of trafficking after Ridge Meadows RCMP raided his store earlier this month.

He now wants to run for office to pressure for legalized pot.
