That's correct hippy we have to make the LP's pay dearly for supporting the government all along,just to maximize their potential profits.
SHame on them all of them....no matter where they are growing....
Trust me they would poison you given the opportunity...they even asked about it...to try and make it possible.
Would you buy anything from a market that allowed this type of thing to go on....especially since you can do it for your self or have someone do it for you...if you can wait for your paperwork.

Please Stop Arresting Marijuana Activists, For Canada's Sake

Last week police arrested Marc Emery for the 30th time. It is believed this is the first time he's been arrested since police in Montreal picked him up in December, but it's tough to keep track. Police also raided Cannabis Culture dispensaries owned by him and his partner Jodie in Toronto, Vancouver and Hamilton. Emery faces 15 charges relating to distributing marijuana, and Jodie Emery has been charged with five such offences.
The federal government plans on introducing legislation later this year which will legalize the sale and distribution of non-medicinal marijuana. Despite this the police just can't stop themselves from arresting Marc Emery. By the time these charges go to court the laws literally won't exist anymore.

To many this will seem as though the police were just arresting business owners who were operating outside the law, and this will not prevent true medical marijuana patients from accessing their medication. However, this couldn't be farther from the truth. If it wasn't for the work of Marc Emery and other dispensary owners operating in a legal grey area, the quality of life for many medical marijuana patients would be greatly reduced.

Medical marijuana patients in Canada have three options:
1. Receive a license to grow their own marijuana
Growing enough marijuana for regular consumption without having access to high-end equipment is considerably more difficult than those guys from your high school made it seem. Many people just do not have the space, know how or time to make this a realistic option.
2. Purchase legal-grey-area marijuana from a dispensary
The option most people choose is purchasing marijuana from a legal-grey-area dispensary, such as Cannabis Culture. The non-government approved variety of marijuana supplied by these dispensaries comes with more variety for patients.
We shouldn't be arresting these people.
Thanks to people like Marc and Jodie Emery, a medical marijuana patient can go into a dispensary and purchase a strain of marijuana specifically geared towards their affliction. A chronic pain sufferer can access a strain of marijuana that has been reported as beneficial for pain. A person with generalized anxiety can get a strain that won't cause them paranoia. Someone who has to work all day can get a smooth sativa strain that won't leave them mentally foggy afterwards. Such niceties are not afforded by the government's medical marijuana program.
3. Purchase government grown and approved medical marijuana
Under the government program there is usually just one strain of marijuana a patient can obtain, take it or leave it. No strains geared towards cancer patients to increase their appetite, no strains geared towards OCD sufferers or those in pain. Nothing. Here is some random marijuana, we hope it works out for you.
By having access to a greater diversity of strains geared towards their affliction, many Canadians are able to lead better quality lives. The work of Marc and Jodie Emery helps people, improves their lives and increases the amount of joy in the world. We shouldn't be arresting these people.

"But they sell for non-medicinal use!"
The main focus of many anti-dispensary crusaders is that dispensaries are selling to people for recreational use. How terrible, right?
In all likelihood such use is going to be legal soon, and our economy is going to be far better off for it. Last year the state of Colorado brought in $135 million off taxes from legal marijuana sales. The state of Oregon brought in over $60 million.
With recreational marijuana use legalized in Canada, the whole country will feel the positive financial impacts. It will be an industry we need to make sure is run well, and who is in the best position to do that? The government and their one-strain of terrible medical marijuana? Or the guy who can re-stock seven dispensaries within hours of being arrested?

Arrest, wasted resources
The reason so many dispensaries have cropped up since the last federal election is because lawyers know by the time any charges make their way through the court system, the laws they are charged with won't exist.
In the end, all of the charges against Marc and Jodie Emery will be dismissed. So why bother arresting them? Every second of time and every cent spent to arrest the pot power couple will lead to absolutely nothing productive, and nothing which benefits Canadians.
The raids will, however, increase the cost of medication for marijuana patients, decrease access to medication and further signify to medical marijuana patients that police still see them as criminals.
Thank you, Marc and Jodie Emery, for risking your freedom to ensure Canadians have access to medicine that can help improve the quality of their life. Thank you for fighting against outdated laws that harm good people. Today the government of Canada is trying to hurt Marc and Jodie Emery, but future governments will be thanking them.

I find it amusing (not in a funny way).... more than 20 years after California legalize medicinally, finally the people legalize recreationally and just after that the politicians FINALLY pass a bill to end asset forfeiture last January. Now that that the profit is taken away from the black market they pass this. But the theft and gestapo tactics have been going on for well over 20 years. This only shows the obvious corruption through the entire system, from the lawyers and judges to the police to the politicians. Yes and the Feds sent notices to Ca. police how much money they would be losing out on in 'equity sharing' if the bill passed. Of course Leo and Lawyers oppose making any changes to this completely unconstitutional theft. It's all about the money. Always has been.
And the cancer of corruption is the same in Canada. They want to completely control monetarily and regulate a plant that is not only harmless but beneficial to people.

Indeed. Force total dependence on the system, so they can then monopolize it and charge usurious prices. Refuse and starve!
Talk about dynamic instability; this is a system designed to crash a civilisation. The rich won't survive- they'd be targets.

Of course I'm aware of Agenda 21. But where it is yet to be implemented in many ways, the illegality of
cannabis and the larger drug war... is a cabal - a conspiracy among government & lobbyists, police & the 'justice' system for 50 to 80 years (depending on where you want to start)... in the open. And actually supported by a majority of the public. The propaganda was a lie, the motives were a lie, the promised results of a drug war were lies.

That article is slightly misleading...and really doesn't need to be. There is a bunch of Licenced Producers, producing a number of strains each. So to say government approved cannabis is only one strain of random origin, is bullshit.
It's clear that this article is slightly biased, however they didn't need to stretch the truth as far as they did to shine a negative light on the government approved, LP "medicine". There's enough ammunition out there that has been already proven true.
Widespread illegal pesticide use
Irradiated cannabis
Sub par quality
Lobbying to remove our rights to produce our own safe/clean medicine.
...just to name a few.
