disgusting news for medical marijuana users in canada i wanted to pass along.
background if you don't know; our system set up by health canada allowed carded medical users to grow for themselves, or have someone do it for them.
that's all coming to an end this month (in what i see as the canadian governments attempt to take over a marijuana monopoly.. as i think it'll be legal shortly after they have control)
they now will only allow a few select warehouses to grow all of canada's medical supply (mailed to you in the post) *there's currently 11 (was 9 just last week)
..yeah, if that wasn't bad enough..
so now they're sending out letters to all who grew under the old rules; threatening them that if they don't sign saying that they wont grow anymore, health canada will turn over all their information to the authorities :angrywife:
they know these people are sick, and are ready and wanting to sick the cops on em.
doesn't that sound pretty criminal? they say organized crime is bad.. they aint got nothing on health canada.
still seems pretty grey area to me too, as those are medical records are they not? or came from medical reasons.
- i'm sure it's not illegal or they wouldn't do it, but it must be right on the edge.
so this is Canada eh? wow

Health Canada:
Recently, the Government of Canada amended the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations to require participants of the Marihuana Medical Access Program to provide written notice to Health Canada by April 30, 2014, stating that they no longer possess marijuana (dried marijuana, plants or seeds) obtained under the old program. Those that were authorized to grow marijuana must also attest that they have discontinued production. Participants are also required to confirm the amount of marijuana and number of plants destroyed, if any.
If participants do not comply with the requirement to notify Health Canada, the Department will notify law enforcement. The Department will also continue to cooperate with police and provide information needed to protect public safety, as appropriate.
