All forms of medical marijuana legal in Canada

[RW]

The Supreme Court ruled today that all forms of medical marijuana are legal.  Patients can now buy it in all forms without hassle.  The Health Minister is fuming and vows to combat the "normalization" of pot.   It's time to get out of the dark ages when it comes to weed.

Why Fash?

I am opposed drugs and alcohol usage.

It's for medical purposes though.

I know, but still..



I'm concerned it will be abused.

[RW]

Any medicine can be abused.

There's enough dopes in Canada already.

There was a man at my husband's company that became addicted to painkillers..



It cost him his job, his marriage and his relationship with his children..



I don't want that for anyone.

[RW]

Well that was my choice - nasty addictive painkillers or marijuana.  Which would you choose?

I don't know enough about either to offer any kind of opinion..

That's a good point about this debate. Prescription drugs kill over 100,000 Americans every year. Millions become addicted.



Marijuana seems pretty tame in comparison. I don't think there's even one known death.

But, isn't marijuana a gateway drug?
