Yeah their response is lame.

What would the risk of home invasion or toxic mold build up be if it was not prohibited by law to cultivate or possess. Time to have a good look and weight the pro's and con's of our law's, science and popular opinion are for legalization, time to wake up eh.

Thanks Chimera for that excellent post

Thanks leaffan for saying such as I would have missed his excellent post!

Getting a lot of pms about this, so here are a few interpretations:

1) if your licenses are dated to expire AFTER Sept 31st, 2013 this ruling applies to you. ATP, DPL, PPL licenses are extended until the ruling in the case at trial, if they were valid AFTER Sept 31st, 2013.

2) You will be limited to 150 gams of dried marijuana, I don't see any mention of changes to plant counts etc. There is NOTHING that says your storage amount remains the same, to be protected I suggest staying under 150 grams of dried cannabis (in BC that can include extracts, resins, etc due to a previous ruling in a BC Court).

3) Don't listen to me or any other armchair lawyers, call Kirk Tousaw, John Conroy, Alan Young, Paul Llewellyn (sp?) or any other qualified lawyer familiar with the MMAR and who has read today's ruling, and get advice on how to proceed in your specific circumstance. Don't get complacent!

4) ORGANIZE, this is not over this is just the beginning. We heard lots of negative talk about John Conroy, I think todays result shut a lot of those folks up hopefully for good. John et al are on OUR SIDE, and we MUST support them, and much better than we did this round. I will be releasing some prime, rare seeds who's sale proceeds will go towards John's legal fund, I implore al of you to find a way to support John's efforts financially, because he is not getting rich off this, he has articling students that need to be paid to help prepare the case. Respect to medman for already putting up 1000 seeds towards this goal, and I encourage him to keep going and provide documentation showing the support/payment to Conroy to keep this all transparent.

6) Visit your local headshop, dispensary or other activist forums, and let's coordinate together to show our support for homegrown medicine for sick canadians- cannabis is a SAFE and harmless PLANT that can be grown by anyone to medicate themselves without endangering the surrounding community, this is a FACT of which the general community/ canadian society needs to be made aware. We need to fight the propaganda from the neocons with FACTS and documented evidence. We will win this fight in the court of public opinion, so let's do our bit to bring this on home for everyone.

I want to make it clear that I support both PPL and DPL rights. I also support the LP scheme (although I have no involvement with any canadian LP companies) because it too will fill a void for some canadians who find it easier to purchase quality medicine than grow it, and that medicine should meet a quality standard and be consistent in cannabinoid and terpene content, free from pesticides, and free from biological contamination. Bottom line, if you are selling cannabis to patients or anybody, it should be safe and tested. If you wish to grow your own, you don't need to meet that burden, just like if you were brewing your own beer or wine vs selling it.

Congrats to all patients, today was a win for justivce and common sense, in Canada we need to protect the rights of the sick and less priviledged, and we cannot allow a corporate model to trump the rights of ordinary citizens to self medicate at a reasonable cost, when they are harming noone.

Let me start off by saying i am a patient i have legit needs that cause me to suffer. MJ is the only thing has helped me and you and thousands of others.
Its nice your optimistic but i am more of a realist and look at the facts. I totally agree that the government taking away the right to grow ur own meds is wrong. being forced to buy off some corporation with inflated prices is wrong. But you need more then complaints to change things. You need deep pockets. These are finances that most will never have and even fewer that do have are willing to bet it on.
Trust me i am not against you and i wish there is an extension but everything were seeing tells me otherwise.

ghandi had a piece of cloth and a sewing machine, that dude outed a fascist colonial empire

i respect everything you said, but we just need to disobey, and ignore the laws. civil disobedience has proven time and time again to be a model to follow becuase......it works. he have power in our decision making, fuck money :)

Be careful...Health Canada is reviewing the judgement. They will be making changes to the MMAR regulations in accordance to there interpretation. We have to wait and see what HC is going to do next. Health Canada could change the regulations to comply with Sec. 1 of the Charter of Rights. Before we start running around doing what we think we are allowed, we should lean to cation and see HOW and WHAT Health Canada does next.

After all, it is the government and they hate being governed by the people...Period!

From Wikipedia said:
Section 1 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is the section that confirms that the rights listed in the Charter are guaranteed. The section is also known as the reasonable limits clause or limitations clause, as it legally allows the government to limit an individual's Charter rights. This limitation on rights has been used in the last twenty years to prevent a variety of objectionable conduct such as hate speech (e.g., in R. v. Keegstra) and obscenity (e.g., in R. v. Butler). It has also been used to protect from the unreasonable interference of government in the lives of people in a free and democratic society by defining these limits.

The Charter of Rights and Freedoms said:
Guarantee of Rights and Freedoms
Marginal note:Rights and freedoms in Canada

Sec. 1. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the rights and freedoms set out in it subject only to such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.

Just to make my point...It is a guaranteed right that we can't be stopped without a court order or legal warrant. But because of public safety, the police can stop any car or citizen under the guise of safety(reasonable limits clause or limitations clause). HC has beat the safety thing to death in the past couple years, in order to end the MMAR and enact the MMPR. The main reason for the change was for the safety of all other citizens in Canada...It is in the best interest of PUBLIC SAFETY to end the MMAR and instate a new program the MMPR.

Not saying Health Canada would use the reasonable limits clause or limitations clause in Section 1 of the Charter and they may not, I just think we should just stay on the careful side of things...To just be cautious and sure.

Peace...B
