Eight Ways To Cannabis Enlightenment In Canada!

Would you sign the online parliament petition that deals with eight points in favor of legal cannabis in Canada? The target is 50,000 signatures until June 2016 and the petition is doing rather well with the motive of pressurizing the Canadian government to loosen the grip on cannabis, stop arrests and pave the way for patients to benefit without hassles.

Besides the business aspect of recreational use that tempts many, cannabis has proved to be the master healer, recommended for diverse ailments like epilepsy and cancer, HIV and PTSD, severe pain and glaucoma, besides some more. Cannabis is now found to be non-addictive with no maligning influence on the body or the mind. Yet the world turned cannabis into a dark villain for many decades and we are presently getting enlightened about the truth. Abuse is to be prevented and everything would be fine.

1. Police raids indicate that literature on cannabis use along with vaporizers and water pipes have no place in Canada. If cannabis is deleted from the Criminal Code, users would be at peace.

2. A court decided that patients can grow cannabis for private use as recommended by the doctor. Such a point should be reinforced, allowing suffering patients that right as a panacea for health.

3. Possession of cannabis or cultivation should not result in arrest and incarceration. Since legalization is now in the air like in neighboring America, such procedures make no sense any longer, as if we lived in the past.

4. Canada nowadays witnesses medical cannabis dispensaries in the making across many cities. Some cities license them. Threats and raids against such centers should cease and Federal Law should allow that facility.

5. Consider the laws that deal with tobacco and alcohol that are far more destructive to health anyway. Like them, cannabis should not be listed under the Controlled Substances Act. Cannabis should be considered a herbal medicine that it truly is.

6. Correction of past mistakes should be a priority for the sake of those judged for cannabis based offences and now languishing in prison. They should be pardoned under the new legal cannabis laws and records erased to give them a fair chance.

7. In keeping with the Hemp Trade Alliance, cannabis farmers should have the right to trade the resin that is cannabinoid laden in addition to the seeds.

8. The local government should have a say when it comes to enforcing cannabis restrictions. Taxes and distribution should be left to the provinces as they see fit instead of restrictive Federal Laws.
