The offices of two Manitoba Members of Parliament were targeted by protestors on Thursday, Feb. 21. They are upset about proposed changes to the way Canadians access medical marijuana. They say it could make it more expensive to obtain the drug legally and could force them to turn to the black market for their medicine.

I often get asked about what I mean when I say that our Sensible BC campaign wants to "decriminalize" cannabis in BC. Some people tell me they don't like the idea of decriminalizing, and that we must legalize cannabis instead. Other people say they don't want legalization, and will only support a decriminalized model. Some people think that "decriminalization" means that people in possession of cannabis will still get a punishment, like a ticket or fine.

CANNABIS CULTURE - Ted Smith will be touring again this February to hold community dialogues on hemp, promote his textbook, Hempology 101: the History and Uses of Cannabis Sativa, drum up support for a protest of Health Canada's proposed Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations, and to spread the good word about Dana Larsen's sensational Sensible BC campaign. This time he will be visiting some of BC's coastal communities.
